Al! posted:i feel like this cycle has happened with movies several times over history but the system won't "learn" because it is what it does. the film industry gets top heavy, collapses in on itself, and the next generation of niche filmmakers, armed with seasoned workers (that are now suddenly cheaper and more available because the industry is shaking itself apart) get moved up, calcified and the process restarts the masses are increasingly becoming less relevant to "economy well-being" (of the bourgeois class) and indeed have less and less money to spend on consumption every year there's also floors to how cheap workers can get based on other parasitic rent-seeking enterprises. i don't think seasoned workers are overpaid now, and certainly can't really get much cheaper than they already are

Big broad theatrical acting works for Speed Racer because it's an adaptation of Speed Racer, and it doesn't work for Cowboy Bebop because it's Cowboy Bebop. imho

The actual animation in the Bebop anime was a fairly grounded and realistic noir vibe. Netflix tried to make everything look like the jazzy title sequence.

the problem with the Netflix Cowboy Bebop is that it was trying to be a faithful adaptation but it’s clear the people making it didn’t really understand the series. I’m sure they liked the series but liking a series is different from understanding what makes it tick and why certain decisions were made. The text scrawled across the background in the title sequence is an easy example of this. In the original opening the text was in English because the text was meant to be reminiscent of the writing you’d see on a jazz album. In the Netflix version, the text is Japanese, because the creators saw liked the aesthetic of the original opening and wanted to recreate that, but misunderstood the “why” of that aesthetic and thought that it was meant to just be cool foreign text.
