Shaving works fine and is quick and easy as long as you keep up with it. I cannot imagine waxing your ballsack unless you had nothing better to do the rest of the day than stay in the fetal position wishing you had been strangled by your umbilical cord.

I'm not sure i buy it tbh. The settings and conflicts are completely different, the major similarities are visual, and most of that is just triangles.

DR FRASIER KRANG posted:i commented to my brother in law that the reason Andor is good is because it's not even about a star war and you don't need to know anything about Star Wars to watch it. I was talking about it with some acquaintances yesterday and described it as the first time star wars has been sci-fi instead of space fantasy with sword wielding knights and princesses in castles; where multiple episodes were focused on space banking laws, space prisons, etc. And that yhe season is entirely focused on "how did the rebellion get money" One of the people said she liked trek so it sounded great to her

Can't believe Dwayne the rock Johnson sang so well in that Disney movie Moana. Only seen it once but one of my students really likes his "You're Welcome" song during reinforcement time. It's really growing on me!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2AF_DJgdjM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HB6Ch_VAfIk this kinda stuff is pretty normal in film score, cause 95% of the time the score is made after the film is cut and to cut the film you need music. it's likely they edited to the Akira song and it worked too well with it, reworking it too much made it not fit the scene anymore

  This is the climax moment and it sticks out so much that it took me way out of the movie, which granted is a movie about 'spectacle' it's also a cliche at this point

i'm going to hazard a guess that the creator of a movie full of deliberate genre references and media pastiches did that on purpose

you don't steal a shot on accident, no. You think I'm suggesting it was subconscious, unintentional? it's very intentional if you think 'ah, an 80s anime. that is what this scene needed - a call back to an iconic image from something insanely unrelated, a technique we haven't done anywhere else in the movie' you might be a redneck The director said "I like this shot and I want to steal it" and that was about it

Everything is a remix of a remix? What's stealing here? Star wars, airplane, like every single tarantino movie, are all at least partially derivative, if not mostly. Shot for shot recreations of scenes galore. That's what I can throw out there off the cuff, but it's pretty normal. Because unless you just literally cut film that's not yours in, in the act of shooting, composing, and lighting the derivative shot, you've made a new work.

a lot of great scenes are rip offs of other great scenes what I'm saying is I didn't 'get' the Akira thing on an intellectual level or a visceral level. It 'bumped me' it 'took me out' I could no longer 'suspend my disbelief' and found it 'jarring' and like a sore thumb it 'stuck out' jesus christ
