Japan as a society is far too innocent, and you can tell they really can't understand a society that doesn't work as well as theirs does. I don't think this is a bad thing, but Japan could never even fathom a protagonist like the one in pic related.

Actually, I've probably mostly seen Japanese films from the 60s. Japan used to be less sheltered than they are now. I'm not saying Kurosawa or Teshigahara or whoever else lacked the imagination to understand human depravity, but modern Japs definitely do.

it seems like there is no great crisis or instability in current Japanese society to generate transgressive art
>>
The Japanese film industry still hasn't recovered from the 1992 economic bubble.

Most of their films/tv still have that low budget/jav look.

I watch a lot of jap cinema but mostly from the 1950s to 1980s, just recently I started watching more contemporary films, it's harder to find good recent stuff but there are good filmmakers out there.

I still avoid most korean cinema tho lol, if I want asian stuff I rather watch 80s-90s south east asia or old jap kinos.
>>
>>217992496
Korea doesn't make better media than Japan. In the 90s Japan used their economy and tech dominance to export their media as a capital driver. Korea is doing the same. I'd say it's profoundly worse because all their actors are made of plastic and S. Korean culture is incredibly vapid and shallow and so their films and TV are the same.

The same as usual throughout their history. They are incapable of innovation, inflexible, and base most of their achievements on "borrowing" ideas from the West while couching it in un-earned pride as their own accomplishments.

The zoomies on here can't remember that, but in the 70s/80s/early 90s it was Japan that was the center of making cheap knock-off shit they dumped en-masse to the West.

Korean acting is also incredibly off in a way the koreans probably wont ever realize.
Everyone's opinionated and at each others throats which seems unnatural as a canadian that's in in the states too since it could get you killed pretty easily(all it takes is a sharp stick to the neck).

Everyone talks like they've got everything figured out but it just comes across as soulless and opinionated.

The acting and pacing between movies is also incredibly similar and unnatural. People take time to think in real life their cinematography and pacing never shows that. They have trouble with creating layers to their plots or showing things that happen in the background. All the characters are always paying close attention to the main characters like their life depends on leaving an impact in their lives in a way that's very odd.

A korean wife that's grown up watching kdramas would probably be miserable given all the women in these are given a free pass to lash out sometimes even physically while trying to make themselves out to be a victim. They say the stupidest shit with the most serious expressions.

You have never been there, have you? SK has the largest ideological youth discrepancy. Most women are hardcore feminists and most men are hardcore chuds. The discrepancy accelerated around 2016-2017 when their female president was ousted and imprisoned after she was found guilty of taking orders from some extreme feminist cult leader. They never brought that up in the Kdramas you watch, did they?

Ah yes, Syngman Rhee, Park Chung Hee, and the Chun Doo-hwan regimes, well known pushers of radical feminism.

these films are so funny when you consider how utterly fucked their birthrate and love lives are, they are larps to the international market to hide it, so korea makes films about anticapitalism and about fake romance, such an utterly fake country, you are just left admiring north korea for its authenticity

Most of the things 'wrong' with Japanese culture are exaggerated anyway. The internet is going through an anti-weeb era because weebs were too prolific and annoying a while ago.

Hirokazu Koreeda carries Japan and puts out kino better than anything Korea produces right now. If it wasn't for him maybe you'd have a point. All kino korean movies are 10 years old at least. Hasn't been one in a while. Their TV is over dramatic slop. Horrible actors

This is true. Kore-eda is the best living Japanese director.
