The idea that a 1:1 is possible, never mind preferable, is also its own strong-rear end mind poison against trying to learn--after all, if you've got to have perfect recall of 500,000 or so terms with very precise implications, that's unreasonable to ask of anyone not some sort of wizard or savant.

Sadly, they don't want to pay us like wizards or savants.

I'll always regret not, when I had the leeway to release what I wanted when I wanted how I wanted, ever having taken a particularly loud complaint week as pretext to release the next in some sort of adaption of kanbun, the old Japanese system for annotating Chinese with Japanese grammar rather than translating it.

It's not a fun movie, I didn't enjoy watching it. But it's a very well made movie, and you would probably never see something like it get made again. So it's probably still worth watching if you can stand something that's very grim and somber.

Also it does make fascism look very, very cool.

yeah oshii is just straight up justifying police brutality in those films

Otherwise I don't know how you come away from a movie as bleak, dark, depressing, and brutally violent as that with "hm yes this is making out a fascist police state as a totally good thing and brutality is good", that's incredible, like were you even watching the same movie lmfao

I was referring to the Live Action Movies (esp. Stray Dogs, in that they both have around the same weird politics as Nolans Batman films do) but go off king! You shoot for that Own!:thumbsup:

The story doesn't imply that people have an inherently evil nature at all. It's directly aiming at the reactionary tendency to meet violence with violence. The shape of the world was determined by an ancient tyrant that history forgot, who was himself reactively dealing with a rival ancient empire.

yeah i knew something was up when that guy in the video compared Lenin with Hitler in his examples of historical monsters, which honestly surprised me because idiots like him pivot to stalin.

what also amazed me is how he didnt mention Ayn Rand (as they do) but somehow managed to make a case for it? Bravo man, bravo:thumbsup:

looking back on it the ending is very much reminiscent of Starship Troopers (Verhoeven adaptation). there's sooooo many aspects to ymirs backstory that are problematic to say the very least (does Hajime just not know what Stockholm Syndrome means or?...)

regardless i very much enjoyed his take on the trolley problem

Literally the only thing that comes to mind are Slice of Life stuff like Bartender or Yokohama Kaidashi Kikō but neither of those have an actual end goal. Maybe Death Parade?

What makes Kojima perverted is all the weird excuses he comes up with to rationalize his sexuality and the sexual content of his games. He's not being honest with himself in the way that say, Yoko Taro is about just loving a big rear end. But Kojima has never struck me as anything more than your run of the mill adult hetero perv.

Quiet as character is such a HUGE step down from other female characters like Meyril, Eva
