why does WW2 make everything so kino?
>>215189191>Muh heckin nazisGrow up
there is metaphysical realm outside time and space, and you inevitably get tuned to it as soon as you re-enact even a fraction of Nazism.
>>215189191You are a dysgenic 56%er who larps as an aryan ubermensch
>>215189191>movie>boredjak.jph>movie, dead Jews>excitedjak.gif
>villains had great uniforms>weird supposed superweapons of which only the V2 kind of worked but wasn't really worth it>villain betrays another villain who then joins the good guys>"We want the Treaty of Versailles audience AND we want the Invading Russia during winter audience."
>>215189191There's a lot of warslop, but media that actually manages to convey the extraordinary circumstances and truly empathize with the characters experiencing it are all A+.
>>215189191wardrobe by Hugo Boss
the villains are over the top cartoon characters with silly names>big bad called hitler because he likes to hit people>his right hand man is called himmler>propaganda minister looks like a gerbil so they call him goebbels >fat man who loves food is called hugeman gorging
>>215189218>>215189235>>215189242OP didn't say anything about specifically liking Nazis.You people are awfully presumptuous and defensive...
>>215189312>Uses text only browserbased
>>215189311>they literally call themselves nazis and speak with a german accent>the lesser villains are all russiansWho wrote that trash?
>>215189294True. The allies representing civilization of course.
>>215189294Civilization is a byword for domestication. It was more like the last stand of barbarism, which is a byword for masculinity
>>215189272>muh heckin western front from mid '44 to mid '45US WW2 slop is the worst.
It was the craziest and most well-documented major war in history, containing a practically infinite number of stories. It’s so massive that you could study it your whole lifetime. We’re unlikely to experience a bigger one in our lifetimes, since anything larger would essentially amount to warfare on a cosmic scale.
>>215189191>the stakes have never been higher>it was the war to end all wars.. until.. there was another oneThe trailers write themselves.
the postwar period from 1945~1950 was the true peak kino imagine being an american officer in germany during that time, leading the reconstruction effort, uncovering crazy nazi secrets, and banging a different german girl every week. so fucking peak i can't believe nobody has made a movie about it yet
>>215189442ROB SCHNEIDER ISthe cleanup guy
>>215189442There was that one shitty show with gaycop from True Detective.
are we hyped for russell crowe as herman the german?
The aesthetic is just kino. The uniforms, the weapons, the tanks, the planes, the architecture.The Napoleonic era also has 10/10 aesthetic but the mutts and Jews don't care about it so we don't have 100000 movies about it like WW2.
>>215189505ww1 Air Combat was also Estic as fugg
Because the propaganda machine of mass media re-wrote it into a hero's journey where the Evil Empire was set to conquer the whole world and the Good Guys Who Want Peace were forced against their will to band together, train and build up their strength, and wrestle down the monster. They turned a chaotic mess that mostly happened on Russian soil into an American Hero's Journey.
>>21518919190% of WWII movies are set post-pearl harbor despite the early war being more interesting
>>215189579The most kino WW2 media is filmed from the german perspective. "Das Boot" is better than "Saving Private Ryan" and "Unsere Mütter, unsere Väter" is better than any other WW2 show.
>>215189569Both Jewish America and Communist Russia made WWII into their real founding myth. All other historical events are dwarfed by it in their populations' consciousness.
>>215189505napoleonic era is exceptionally boring besides 2 or 3 pitched battles. it hinges on a single great man and you are hard pressed to name even 3 of his lieutenants. its a character story and gets boring quickly.it has none of the WW2 politics and drama behind the scenes, the awe of massive destruction by modern weaponry, the air war, naval battles in the pacific, a comically evil but aesthetic villain who gives the good guys a fight for their lives, clever espionage, the homefront, mass media, scientific and engineering breakthroughs, backstabbing and double alliances, and even the chinks and gooks pitching in an interesting story arc on the other side of the world.WW2 literally has everything a good story needs, it will never be surpassed
>>215189640You're wrong.
>>215189442is this cheap bait? there are dozens of films about this
>>215189640>it hinges on a single great man and you are hard pressed to name even 3 of his lieutenants.The Marshals are definitely some of the more famous generals of the 19th centuryI think more people know Ney and Davout and Bernadotte and Murat and so on than know French generals from any other pre-WW1 warTalleyrand too
>>215189617Once you learn that less than 1% of casualties in World War 2 were American, you can't take American films seriously. The eastern front had multiole battles with 400,000+ casualties
>>215189873nobody cares about subhuman slavshits being mowed down though
>>215189191Its the uniforms and outfitsGreatest generation on all side had massive drip
>>215189908The audacity to think mutts are somehow more genetically or in any way superior to anyone.
>>215189191What movie is this from?
>>215189191The greatest and biggest war of all time
>>215189873It's difficult to fathom just how brutal the war in the east really was. The western allies had a cakewalk in comparison.
>>215189191because it's the one war that had 1 dimensional villains
>>215190069Which one was that?
>>215190140the second world war
>>215189234
>>215189191Kino, Stauffenberg was a hero
Because it was the last truly simple warThere was no complex morality or "both sides"One side was fully evil, the other side was fully good
>>215189191because you build up this massive struggle only to see the good guys keep fighting against overwhelming odds and still lose in the end, that is unusual and kino
>>215190300Ah yes, the fully objectively good Russia
>>215190334Damn maybe if they didn't invade their white neighbours and launch a war against white people that wouldn't have happened
>>215190300correctsoviets were fully evil
>>215189191WW2 is peak in the trilogy. It interestingly expands upon the lore of WW1 and has better action. The Cold War has interesting ideas but, it is too long and often meandering, and the ending is somewhat anti-climatic. I never cared for that War on Terror TV show they did.
>>215189191Nazi and fashists are evil. Holocaust happened and it was a tragedy.
>>215190032>Elessar
>>215190541edgy
because it has an obvious evil side
>>215190069Yeah but the villains won
>>215189311>hirohito>"hero person">is a bad guy???
>>215189191It doesn't. I fucking hate WWII>muh allies>muh natzees>muh war veteransfuck off
>>215191015>they were just as bad as usnice to see your kind is giving up
>>215190953no they didn't
It helps ANTIFA are the good giys
>>215190541>Holocaust happenedYou can't prove that
>>215191168Have you watch Schindler's list?
>>215191190I have watch Schindler's List
>>215191221It was like that and maybe even worse they killed 6 millions of Jews.
all wars are kinohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RHo_ZG-YGo
>>215191251My own research puts the number closer to 600,000
>>215191389Yes racist posts from 4chan more trust worthy than published in academia research by historians
>>215191389I would say it's AT LEAST 60
>>215191251Daaaaamn so Guardians of the Galaxy was real too?
>>215189272When will we get that from the german pov during WII?
>>215189442Not for the germans in the Rhine meadow camps and all the raped german women.
>>215191468How's Israel you kike?
>>215189266*snooooooort*Ok ok ok ok ok ok ok hear me out, we reboot the Napoleonic wars, BUT it’s a sequel to World War I but none of that Oscar bait trench war bullshit we’re gonna have, we’re gonna have *snooooort* ROCKETS and Japan and a like a physics sci-fi super weapon that destroys Tokyo so we get the fucking weebs in the theater and *snooooort*weird occult stuff and guys in tight leather uniforms for the chick demographic and *snooort* BLACKS! Elite fighter pilot BLACKS for the DEI bux *snooort* FUCK we need to get this distributed in China fuck ok lookit we make Mao a main character but it’s a prequel so he’s young and cool *snooort* OK EVERYONE IS GOING TO BE IN THIS ONE OK I WANT RUSSIANS I WANT ITALIANS I WANT JEWS THIS IS GONNA BE A BLOCKBUSTER
>>215189191It's the opposite. Most of the movies are boring Oscar baits.
>>215189191Clear bad guys, who are cool and scary
>>215189640>it has none of the WW2 politics and drama behind the scenes
>>215192404>FUCK we need to get this distributed in Chinasince we are on the subject, what the fuck is wrong with those people?!https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_highest-grossing_films_in_China
>>215189234there's something about syncing your thoughts with the primary timeline before it forked and we got stuck in the ruined universe, your soul gets invigorated and that spark we used to feel much more often back in the 90's comes back for just a few moments
>>215191168Wikipedia
>>215192604this post gave me an anxiety attack
>>215189640>a comically evil but aesthetic villain which one are you talking about>the good guys >while allied with stalin and not culling mao when they had a chancealready forgotten how vatniks started the war together with the germans? this kind of simplistic black/white US/UK understanding of ww2 is part of what makes ww2 so eye rollingly cringe
>>215189640>it hinges on a single great man and you are hard pressed to name even 3 of his lieutenantsNigga, Murat, Bernodotte, Ney, Soult, etc just from fucking memory. And they all fill their own character archetypes, from overconfident bad boy to careful and cautious advisor, to hardass that whips his soldiers into shape and is completely humourless etc.The only thing that is less understood and isn't widely noted about the Napoleonic era is that the (((British))) were the bad guys, constantly funding wars in Europe that got millions of people killed all throughout the continent. They just would not leav Napoleon alone, not that he was perfect himself, he was more than willing to have a fight, but it was the British who were the aggressors.
>>215189191Nazis are naturally theatrical. Notice nobody really gives a fuck about the other Axis powers because they weren't. Maybe some Kamikaze Japs because that aspect can be dramatic, but they didn't have Hugo Boss uniforms, etc.
>>215190589((((Judges))))
for me, it's The Pianist. Might be the only WW2 movie I truly enjoy and that I love rewatching. Love me some survival kino
>>215193573The pianist from Schindler's List? Ja, that is indeed a good scene!>Was ist das, ist das Mozart?>Nein, das ist Bach.
>>215190032quite sad that such a pretty picture doesn't have a nice fat high resolution scan
>>215189218Just *itching* to be triggered, eh?
>>215191468Historians aren't allowed to speak freely on the subject, at all
>>215189191WWI is cooler.
>>2151892181933-1945 was humanities peak
>>215189640Come back when there is anything close to War and Peace about ww2
>>215189191because ww2 is our modern mythology, informing the reasons for existence of the world afterwords. a war with 3 factions informed by state central planning ideologies, New deal/western powers that called themselves Democratic (when politicians and newsmen say democracy, they mean this bureaucracy form). Communists ( totality of state control over humanity, killing all morality and identity that came before) and Fascists (Commies but with a sense of aesthetics and love of previous worlds elements)Formed after the old monarchical industrial orders died out, the guys they trained to run factories formed bureaucratic factions, took over nations, then the more agressive ones declared war on the others before being taken down. leading to the cold war which informed most of the boomer generations understanding of the world. When someone says Nazi, they mean Demon. thus all neo nazi's are simply people who dont like the dominant powers that be.
