Why does it look so dim?
Ran began in the best mood possible amid high expectations. As soon as it began, however, I cocked my head. The opening was a short scene of beaters hunting down a wild boar; a feast at the end of the hunt followed. I thought it would be a scene of them roasting the various game they’d caught, a gorgeous, free and easy gathering fueled with sake, but it wasn’t. Rather, their clothes tidy, with the grace and poise of Noh performers everyone piously lent their ears to the words of the feudal lord (King Lear). All too explicitly, formalist beauty was taking priority over cinema’s own realist visual aesthetic. I felt a strange discomfort, and amidst my slowly mounting anxiety that this film wasn’t going to be fun, the story began in earnest.Visually, Tatsuya Nakadai’s King Lear is sharp and leaves a strong impression. His speech and action are crisp. But because the all-important point, how he’s perceiving things, isn’t as clear as it should be, there’s an overbearing sense that the story is being foisted or forced on you—it feels strangely phony. I already wanted to leave. Coming in, however, I’d seen and greeted many people in the lobby and the main hall. Herald people, Toho people, many friends and critics … Standing up and leaving the theater would be the shameless act of a heretic, simply off limits. My gaze began to drift from the screen to fall on the backs of the audience. My seat was a little behind the center so I could see the viewers in front of me well. People’s response to Ran was clear to me then and there, to a painful degree. They were clearly perplexed. They were still giving the screen their full attention but didn’t seem to know how to view this film. I crossed my arms. It was just as Master Oguni had fumed. The characterization was lacking at the script level; it was a clear mistake in the screenplay.
The issue is HDR. If you have an HDR screen it looks even more vibrant, but if you view it without one it looks dim

>>219212185>there's nothing more exciting than Shakespeare.NTA, I love kurosawas original scripts but don't like his shakespeare adaptations at all. They're just so dull, and i don't mean visually.
>>219212462Death is too good for whoever did this
is season 1 the best? where exactly does the show fall off? personally i caught almost every episode until around season 5 or 6 when castielle became a main character
I stopped after Sam went to hell with Lucifer, the worst season was definitely the one with the criminal chick with daddy issues who kept interrupting the plot every time with the shittiest episodes possible.
>219215494>219215743Cont'd
>>219215750>criminal chick with daddy issuesBela? She was sexo at least
All you need is season 1-5 with the anime as a little bonus. The rest is extra.

>>219215492This is creepy to women because it skirts around your romantic interest in her in a way that is non-committal. You're trying to be not so obvious about your attraction to her, while still enjoying it. This is objectifying. >I would really enjoy giving her a deep tissue massage to help maximize her recovery afterwardsIs what I would think, but girls would probably still think it's creepy because of how clinical it is. ButIs what I think when seeing

>>219213109Uncle Rico's just an idiot who never grew up. He's not a bully so much as a lame uncle
>>219208488I love how the guy is 40.Also I haven't got a single one of these dumb capchas even trying to cheese it with reverse image search
>>219213109>...were the bulliesYou forgot Tina (the fat lard, God!)
>>219213454It's doable. I got Pen-Pen, Carlos, and Jenny from My Life as a Teenage Robot. Wasn't able to get this one though.
Does /tv/ still collect physical media?
>>219215828THat's beautiful. I have one of these with my x files and king of queens dvds and bunch of 90s movies
I have a reasonably sized dvd collection of some of my favorite media.

>>219215655It's probably playing along the old idea of elves being malignant evil entities. You know, the sort of beings that would steal your baby and replace it with a changelinghttps://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheFairFolk
>>219215781>It's probably playing along the old idea of elves being malignant evil entitiesi've never heard about this, sounds like med seethe about nords
>>219215825It's part of old European folklore, especially post-Christianity when they were viewed in a more demonic sense.
>>219215655wraiths were so coola shame they never gave them too much background besides "yes we actually need to eat humans,we are not just eating you for fun"
>>219215932elves(nords) are canonically viewed as good guys due to lord of the rings though

Babylon 5 was kind of exception, because JMS was on BBS's pre-internet and used fucking Lurker's Guide ran by autistic fans as reference. I don't think mid 90's internet had much of effect on Star Trek other than the time nuked few fanfic sites on copyright grounds and stopped doing that because handful whales got angry as they were only ones reading said fanfics.
>>219215888indeed kekBut there is zero social commentary in the cloud vampire episode.
>>219215202Gene Roddenberry would be either considered a Nazi or a toxic abuser of women today. I don't know how he would feel about gay marriage (Probably oppose. He was born over 100 years ago!) but he sure as hell would be against transing kids and blackwashing cultural icons.
>>219215931
>>219215962>toxic abuser of women todayDidn't he (supposedly) rape some lady?
I know it's 4chan and I know we're on about 12 layers of irony, but without a shred of cynicism, what's the closest thing to a spiritual experience you've had with a film?

>>219207795>>219206842At that point he still though he would work with walt for a long time, that kind of lie would be more trouble than it's worth to keep up long term and you never know when walt might randomly find out he lied and lose trust in him, keep in mind he was a somewhat public figure doing fund raisers at stuffFor example one local news article about a fund raiser happening to call him a bachelor and walt happening to read it wouldn't be an impossible scenarioMakes more sense that him having kids was retconned

>>219165083I don't even want to rag on how someone looks and be a big ol' meanie, but this casting decision was so insanely hilarious that it stopped being funny.Then all of the "anti-pedos" started projecting the fact that they wanted to fuck kids by accusing everyone else of wanting to fuck kids, and the whole thing just went way too far into comedic territory that I don't even find it funny anymore.I don't even have a name for it, post-funny or something gay like that? It's like that South Park episode where Cartman sees the family with asses for heads and he loses the ability to laugh at anything because it was too funny.It's all so retarded.
