Baron Munchausen
This one actually feels like a game.
> Bullshit PC plans
> Ridiculous backstories
> Filmsy excuses for the other players to join the game
> Party' face acting like it's a game all the time
> Cucking Gods, fighting giant monsters and entire armies by themselves

Feels like a group of friends having a great time pulling the silliest of shit in an otherwise serious adventure.

These are solid. Gonna add some series as well that I use for inspo.

Maxmilian and Marie de Bourgogne (german TV show)
The Last Kingdom (skip the movie) TV show
Andor- if you like star wars, it basically runs like a game out of Age of Rebellion
The FIRST season of Mandalorian- basically runs as an Edge of the Empire campaign
The Last Charge of the Light Brigade
Reign of Fire
Big Trouble in Litlte China
The Thing
Escape from New York
Yado
The Maltese Falcon
Shogun (the newer series)
Kurosawa films- particularly Ran and Seven Samurai
The Expanse series is how I'd imagine a good Traveller campaign run
The Warriors (1979)
13th Warrior
Last of the Mohicans

>>97278561
What's wrong with the older Shogun mini series

>>97278572
I thought there was an old movie that wasn't well received. I'm ignorant of the old series. I just really enjoyed the new series. Was the old one good?

>>97277617
Attack the Gas Station. Older korean movie about violent shitheads but with a goofball asian comedy side. Seems about right for most party dynamics.

Good point, I'running a spelljammer campaign, so when someone wants to join I just ask them:
- Have you watched that old Treasure Planet movie?
- Did you like it?
- What kind of character would you like to play that would fit in that movie?

I think this have helped a lot to set the tone of the campaign.

It is good and I like it better. The newer one is still very weeaboo but the older one comes from a more innocent time where no one cared, at least not publicly. It's totally unabashed about being some western fantasy of what Japan was like whereas the remake tones that stuff down. I don't think the new adaption captures the spirit of the novel well, it tries too hard to be less weeaboo which removes a lot of the charm, especially that of the thoroughly implausible love story that tracks through the novel and 80s show. The 80s also didn't try to force me to learn Japanese to understand what they were saying in Japanese, unlike the newer one when they left bits unsubtitled so that the viewer could be just as confused as the European characters at times. While I can see some good for leaving off subtitles in some productions, I don't think that helped the story telling in this story.

Compare the 1960 sand and sandals epic Spartacus with its wonderful saturated colours, over the top spectacle, square jawed never sets a foot wrong hero to a grimmer film like 2000's Gladiator with its slightly less square jawed and slightly flawed hero who lets his desire for revenge overcloud his judgement, throws in a little brooding, some moral quandaries, some emotional angst over the death of his family. Both very good films and both enjoyable. Same for both Shogun miniseries.

While they wasted him and this was not up there with his best work, this was the first thing I saw Toshiro Mifune in before I knew who Toshiro Mifune was.

Didn't hurt that it had Yoko Shimada as Mariko either.

I'd recommend the first Deathstalker. AND DEATHSTALKER TOO!

Space Sweepers is one of those movies that feel like it could have been adapted from a PnP campaign.

>>97285861
Barbarians. Two goof ball brothers and a zany quest. It'll remind someone of their players.

>>97277617
Alatriste is a Spanish movie about a mercenary (i.e. Spanish Sharpe). Basically a depiction of an intrigue-focused campaign...Where all the PCs only have combat skills.

>>97277617
Jack the Giant Killer (1962)
Alexander Ptushko's Ilya Muromets, The Stone Flower, and Sadko in the original Russian cuts.
Invention for Destruction
Karel Zeman's Baron Munchausen, Invention for Destruction, and A Jester's Tale
Terry Gilliam's Baron Munchausen is also really good.

>>97287910
Hell yeah, this and the Wizardry OVA are my go-tos for quick fantasy vibes

>>97277617
Brotherhood of the Wolf. It is a bit more contemporary (set right before the French Revolution) but has all of the stuff you want in a fantasy setting.

>>97309857
Kung Fu Hustle is unironically kino and an excellent king fu movie. The balance between serious themes and slapstick comedy is legendary

>>97309984
Though Kung Fu Hustle is his best work, Stephen Chow's other movies are also great. God of Cookery I especially liked, but Shaolin Soccer is another standout.

>>97309949
I still like Hurricane better, as it perfectly captured the 80s rock sound.
Kiss is a lot more pop sound, in a way I don't think fits the dark cyberpunk setting. Too hopeful, power of friends type.
I respect it, tho, because it cleaves to the heart of the series, that being a group of women trying their damndest to make a better world.
Regardless, it is bittersweet, because we will never have this kind of sound, this, dare I say, soul, again. I stand with you, anon, in love for days long past, never to return.

This thread reveals the painful truth that anon CAN have decent if not good tastes, but not for shit that came out less than 20 years ago

drunken master
executioners from shaolin
fatal flying guillotines (top tier tournament movie with lots of wild styles)
five shaolin masters

heroes of the east aka shaolin challenges ninja (this is kung fu vs japanese martial arts vry fun movie)
invincible armour (peak stereotypical kung fu movie great fights)
invincible shaolin
raiders of the shaolin temple
mad monkey kung fu
magnificent butcher
master of the flying guillotine
mystery of chessboxing (this is insipiration for a wu tang clan album, very fun movie)

the 7 steps of kung fu
the 18 bronzemen
the avenging eagle (rly good)
the blood brothers
the silver fox
the thundering mantis
drunken tai chi

Superhero comics and movies are just soap operas about people with superpowers so they're completely useless for inspiring tabletop games.

>>97316743

For cyberpunk, I recommend
Strange Days, by Kathryn Bigelow
This movie feels so much like a Cyberpunk 2022 scenario, I'm half suspecting it's just a movie adaptation of an actual campaign.
James Cameron is one of the co-writer on this, so it wouldn't surprise me the slightest.

Scratch that, actually you couldn't convince me that this didn't start as a CP2022 scenario, the coincidences are just too perfect:
- The character are mapping perfectly with the character class in CP2022 (Lenny is a fixer, Mace is a Solo etc...)
- Plot is centred around braindance

The list cuts there in chronology, because there a one year rule, meaning it won't be until March the first good movie of 2025 will be able to get a pass. Either way, past 3-4 years were always bare, even back in early 10s, because it's always hard to gauge if this or that movie will last.
And this is just the sample taken from the 1d4 list. And there might be other ones, simply without the year of production listed, while I skipped bunch of movies that simply can't be qualified as adventuring or adventure-friendly (like a bunch of horrors or black comedies)

tl;dr you're full of shit and don't even watch movies

Besides personal taste objections, there's your assertion that

But you can clearly see how it starts getting bare in 2018 (that's 8 years ago bro). There's very clearly a decline shown there. And I'm not even talking about quality.

That's the thing here:
There is nothing to mine there AND it's a bad movie on top of that.
I put all the trash-tier 80s sword & sorcery on the original list, because they are still mineable despite being trash. 47 Ronin is a movie you play someone you hate to torment them

>>97337294
>47 Ronin is a movie you play someone you hate to torment them
I might rewatch it, I don't remember it being that bad, certainly wasn't good by any stretch but it thought some of the locations they went to in the film were interesting, some interesting monster design.

Thanks for sharing, anon-kun
Wick movies, all four of them, shaped how all the action flicks are made for the past decade.
The Hateful 8 is a movie that perfectly showcases you can have a session with nothing happening and yet everyone is going to have a great time anyway; it's also a decent movie on its own despit dragging
And stay contrarian about Dune, especially sicne you didn't watch the 80s version nor read the book anyway.
It's almost as if the quality of those movies had nothing to do with why they are on the list or something

Also:
Anon listed an entire string of movies from the past 20 years, and you are still crying while claiming utter nonsense. Have you considered not making being a whinny bitch your core personality trait?
From the top of my head, movies that are already on the 1d4 list, but aren't dated:
For 2022: Marlowe, Polite Society, Prey
Sisu and Project Adam got edit-warred over, so was the recent D&D movie
For 2024: Salem's Lot latest remake, which is listed on both, that's also when 2nd Dune came out

What actually happened was the Pole that curated the lists ever since got perma-banned after they moved from 1d4 to 1d6 and thus regular contribution stopped, too. The list is barren because the rest of the users put maybe a tenth of the movies the crazy Slav did. This is why the old list has thousands of movies, while the new one has barely 500 titles. And why do you think there are so many Polish and Czech movies there?
Nothing like idiotic culture wars that claim a fucking aproved movie list for /tg/ purposes, since the faggots that hijacked 1d4 are bunch of leftards and instantly started to remove "problematic" titles. Then they were stupid enough to show up on /tg/ and use name-faggotry to insist their new version of 1d4 is 20% better and 35% more faggot-friendly.

NTA, but Khartoum could work imo. Haven't seen Ben Hur

>>97339100
Bunch of sword and sorcery movies with gratitous sex scenes, because sex is icky.
Bunch of 50s and handful of later movies that "glorify" colonialism, in tune of "55 Days at Peking"; this is also why "Zulu" is not on the list, since they were paranoid about "muh /pol/" memery
Film serials got cut, because they have icky racism (lmao, because they don't) and are build on "outdated sensibilities". I admire whoever added them back with a long list of as to why they still work for /tg/, leaving them with no ammo to cut them once more
Dobermann was edit-warred over and that's why it has a disclaimed for its violence

>>97340487
Also different anon, but Khartoum only works if you plan to play it as a background for minis. As actual campaign or even one-shot material, there really is nothing useful in it, because it's way past a skirmish involving a player party of 3-6 people.
Decent movie, thou.

>>97277617

>>97340487
Compare Khartoum with, say, Legionnaire, because thematically, they are basically the same core premise: a besieged desert location, with a native uprising and colonial force trying not to die while maintaining strategically important position.
>Khartoum
Focus on "big historical names", entire plot is about HQ of both sides trying to outsmart the other, big siege-turned-storm sequence that has no chance of victory for defenders, grunts are just background extras
>Legionnaire
Focus on four grunts that try to make it through the Legion, entire plot is about them trying not to die in series of battles and asaults, big siege sequence that is even-sided (the fort still falls), officers and big events are just background to the experience of those guys

Now I'm not an omnisciencent being, but last time I've checked, typically PCs were participants of events, not their instignators and that's how majority of games operate. This makes Khartoum impossible to use, because both the stakes and level of plot is too high, and trying to re-frame it to grunt level means you spend your session digging ditches, standing guard and being killed in enemy assault.
Hardly an engaging material, and that after you shifted the focus in the first place (thus defeating the point of the plot)

We can go even a step further and compare Khartoum with Sahara
>Khartoum
Check above
>Sahara
A platoon of Allied soldiers against German battalion, defending a (dry) well in the middle of the desert. This is a suicide mission, but the soldiers all agree this is more important to stall the Germans and trick them to die over a dry well than escape, because either way, they are toast, while they at least can do something about the way they die. Combat is even, because the Germs had to storm a defensible position with infantry, while the Allied side has a (broken) M3 tank
WFRP turned this into an official module, btw, involving a broken Ol' Reliable and a besieged castle.

New one is good, but actually nothing new and special - it is competently made, but no new grounds broken and it's a WORSE adaptation of the book (since this is a novel adaptation). That Disney wants to make season 2 out of finished story is a sad joke

>>97341367
The problem with action movies past... dunno, 2010 or so, you are better off with games like FATE, Outgunned, Wushu etc. They are just as bullshit as the 80s movies in terms of constriction, plot armour etc, but you simply can use different set of tools that are going better fit. Meanwhile, Predator is a perfect movie about small unit tactics, despite being testosterone-loaded macho bullshit. Whereas, say, Expendables, is just macho bullshit.

Which is part of why it's on the approved list

>>97341419
>Things that only exist in my head are real, because they are in my head
Nigga, you've got serious issues.
Here, a list of reasons why this is approved and why it's only for first season:
- perfectly gameable plot structure and how to chain it into a bigger string
- how to wing up a camapign from literally nothing
- just enough details to spin a scenario, without drowning things in exposition
- just the right balance between combat set pieces and non-combat stuff
- characters are placeholders, which is very handy for GMs

What you are meanwhile are areguing against is the objective quality of the show, which is completely beyond the scope of the approved lists. Did you notice how many shit-tier B-movies from the 80s are on the approved? They are all objectively and definitely crap, and yet they are approved, for OTHER reasons than their film-making.

Never had this problem in decades of playing and running games. Mando isn't a good example of a campaign. Its a good example of vague ideas of rpgs filtered through several layers of discombobulated storytelling people who have only watched CR or someshit will think is a game.

It's joever?

>>97349202
No and yes.
But it's a bit more complicated:
When 1d6 launched, there was an attempt to make it pozzed as fuck. There was a very strong push-back and that stopped the process. Then the cunts responsible simply left.
Right now, 1d6 is pretty much 1d4 sans two or three pages. As compared with 2d4, which is abandonware AND the cunt that owns it turned out to be twice as pozzed as the cunts behind 1d6, with no end of censorship until he got bored and site is now spammed to hell by random advertising bots

>>97350230
>restore it
Because those were some obscure memes and nobody has a copy. They simply didn't migrate it from 1d4 when they had a copy
A bunch of other shit that got cut got restored, because people simply had copies on their own.

>>97350230
>>97350589
Consider this:
They cut the entire original approved movies list, just because. Took monumental edit war and eventually a DDoS to make them reconsider.
So considerting the level of damage anticipated and how it ended, I say it's workable.
2d4 meanwhile started out as 1:1 repository, but then the dumb fuck who set it up went with a machete across the pages, slashing whatever he felt like it, and openly saying that fuck keeping old shit, time to update.
Which is why 2d4 is now run by Korean spam bots, I guess
