Movies and TV

[Doolio]

Speaking of which Doolio you ever seen an anime called Welcome to the N.H.K, watched it years back and I plan to rewatch it soon but in terms of characters its actually a very deep anime, you'd probbly enjoy it :).

Ah, Eduardo suggested it to me and I watched it like two weeks ago:D
I liked it quite a bit, I think the thinking processes of main character(s) were done excellently. The development of overthink patterns, for example.

lol, I somehow didn't know that fullmetal jacket was made by Kubrick:) It's one of my favourite movies lol:) I just forgot to mention it.

love most of Nolans movie, they have that hollywood cheese yeah but in terms of characters they are much deeper then most of hollywood say like micheal bay or emmerichs movies, besides being an addict for crazy villains I fell in love with Heath's joker, the third movie though....speakin as someone who adores the first two, Dark knight rises sucked, Tom hardy was awesome as bane but 99% of the movie felt like hey lets just copy the dark knight and do it badly, I had alot of problems with it, some to do with Talia al ghul but I forgot half of my problems with it, the movies just that unmemorable.

Yes, of course, Nolan has nothing to do with Emmerich or Bay, I mean, for me, they are so much trivialized and "hollywoodized" that they are living parodies of that approach, sadly, unnintentionally:)
But, that's exactly why I have a slight "problem" with Nolan. I mean, if I enter the "yay movies pew pew" mode, I LOVE Nolan. But, on the other hand, I have a strong impression that he wants to do something without actually doing it. I mean, for example, look at the dark knight rises. I'm not talking about quality, I'm talking about approach. Nolan kinda tried to criticize pure capitalism and then he was like "nah, I better not" and the result is a messy mess of messiness and blandness:) It's quite hard to try and go non-hollywood while in fact going pro-hollywood, so I think he should decide or simply make quality blockbusters without analyzing much, because he is an EXCELLENT director per se. Or go and make indie movies for million times less money that now, but with freedom to actually do some analysis and question some things.
That's why if I don't enter the lollywood mode, I might criticize Nolan even more than Emmerich:)

But yeah, for me, Emmerich is so unbelievable in his emmerichness that it's ridiculous:) I really, really can't fathom how he makes movies, all taken into consideration. I can understand even Bay (pew pew orange blue pew pew slapstick pew pew moneyz splosions), but Emmerich went like five circles in the most stupid direction with his movies that I would think even the most ridiculous kinds of viewers would find his movies simply bad and too much over the top.

And I really need to watch Kurosawa's movies at some point, not just because they're meant to be fantastic movies but also because Yojima inspired my favorite director of all time Sergio Leone, who I will not rant about now because god help me once I start ranting I don't stop.

rant? You meant praise?:)
Well, if you like Leone, then yeah, you should close the forums now and go watch Kurosawa, you'll like it:)
