Anyone else think the ballet mogs the book?

You can watch the whole thing here if you're curious
https://videotanz.ru/dance/1984/

I personally think it is because the weakest parts of the book are its preachy tone and pedestrian writing. When you trim that fat away, it can make for a much better story

>Anyone else think the ballet mogs the book?
No and being a contrarian doesn't make you seem interesting or intelligent. It just makes you annoying and a joke for those more intelligent than you, which is a LOT of people, to laugh at.

Not being a conformist isn't the same as being a contrarian

I kind of agree with Paul Atreides. Opera is for fags and ballet is for anorexic Disney princesses
>>
>>25155780
Opera is the only real musical singing concert. Singers in every other concert use microphones and speakers, you are not actually hearing their voice but an electronic representation of it. And ballet is the only discipline left where being beautiful requires enormous talent and work, it is the last real altar to beauty as every other form of theatre embraces ugliness, or CGI. On one side there is AI and onlyfans, and on the other, you have ballet

Timmy represents a new age where we don't hear actual voices in song anymore. We don't hear instruments. Just their electronic analogue. Even musicians are being replaced completely by DJ's in popular music. He represents an age where talent is seen as obsolete at best, and offensive at worst, wherein Amanda Gorman and Rupi Kaur reign supreme as exemplars of poetry.

All the ballerinas over here are neutered
>>
>>25156855
Ballerinas started taking over the artform including dances that would have otherwise have been written for men for the same reason women are the focus in gymnastics and figure skating. Especially with the introduction of pointe dancing which the vast majority of danseurs just can't for the same reason that men can't sing at ranges castrati could, except for a handful, included for reference:

https://youtu.be/Roiu19HahXk

https://youtu.be/9lqrdW46pqE

https://youtu.be/kNq9q2gD6iY

Consequently ballet often has a lot of androgynous parts that women play because they are capable of attaining avian physiques. Nonetheless men are physically necessary for things like lifting ballerinas, not because ballerinas are heavy but because in dancing it has to be done extremely gracefully without a moments suggestions of effort

Also as narrative, ballet can become much more gendered. In the ballet, Young Men, the subject is WWI and most of the dancing specifically emphasizes the masculine physique

You can watch it all here, like with 1984 you need to scroll down to the embed

https://videotanz.ru/dance/young-men-the-movie/

Some ballet also emphasizes the female form and body, especially more abstract balle that is about group expressions since it depends less on pyrotechnic feats of individuals

Lasted 34 seconds then died of boredom.
I type this with ghostly fingers.
>>
>>25158005
No biological human being above ten years of age should feel pangs of boredom after 30 seconds of doing any activity without stimulation, even literally watching paint dry.
>>
>>25154870
how do they ballet the part they fuck, do they do it naked?
>>
>>25158839
They do it in their underwear covered with perspiration
>>
Traditional ballets and operas are sublime experiences. Modern ballets and operas suck, and even performers have gotten markedly worse. The very idea of a 1984 ballet is embarrassing.
>>
>>25158855
You sound like you get your idea of proper ballet and opera from cartoons and wear a monocle

The embarrassing thing is people who pretend to be aficionados of the artforms but only accept twenty entries of each to be performed ad infinitum. People who actually devote their lives to performing those cherished 20 by practicing hours and hours every day never share that outlook

The costumes vary and the screens are not omnipresent except thematically. Ballet is not limited to one scene
