The Last Samurai is strange. It's a big Hollywood blockbuster with the top movie star of its era, yet it seems like something from the imagination of a fat weeaboo on 4chan.>Cruise is a disillusioned gaijin who hates his own people>fights the samurai in a battle where the gun proves weaker than the mighty katana>would be killed, but the samurai spare him because he honorably defeats a samurai 1v1>as their captive, he is nursed back to health by a shy but tsundere Japanese tradwife who obviously wants his white dick>he adopts the ways of the people as his own and discovers that his true soul is Japanese>he quickly learns how to fight like a samurai>he helps them defeat a team of ninjas, and earns their respect>when he returns to the Westernised part of Japan, he is attacked by government assassins>already a katana master, he fights them 1v4, defeats the first two easily and then switches to an epic dual-wielding style to finish off the last two, the last of whom he beheads, just like my Japanese animes
Yeah it's a weird film. It's part White savior but not really. It's respectful of Jap culture but still lets Tom dick down some good looking gook. IMO it's the jews telling the japs that your culture no longer exists. As if the bombs weren't enough.
>>219827853It's lil Timmy fantasy : the movieFor the tv show version see - Shogun
>>219827853Every once and awhile a proper movie is made even in the western studio system.
>>219827962In fairness, Timmies conquered Japan

The alcohol withdrawal scenes are horrifyingly realistic
Why strange? There are so many stories like It that it's a common trope and the character could even be an archetype, the outsider that goes native. Typical romantic story of the noble savage. Dances with wolves, avatar, dune, the last of the mohicans...
>>219828188Sake wasn't good enough to simulate western alcohol so he went through withdrawal?
>>219828288They wouldn't give him sake, he was begging for it and they wouldn't give him any. He had to quit cold turkey
>>219827853weeaboo shit predates the 20th century tho
>>219828364same here
>>219827853the samurai win that battle because Algren’s advice was ignored and they deployed unprepared troops. he gets humbled in front of every main Japanese character before he learns how to fight with a katana. and a beheading as a finishing move is just awesome, you don’t have to be a weeb to appreciate that.
>>219827931>gookKoreans are gooks, Japanese are nips
>20 + replies >no Seagal copypastaAm I even on 4chin anymore?
>Japanese dynasties fight for centuries >can't handle white men with guns>hundreds of years later still can't handle white men with guns (and nukes)KWAB
>>219828471When you're White like me, you can call them what you want.
>>219827853The movie about samurai is like other movies about samurai? How could anyone have seen this coming?
>>219828471Sem Ting, m8 >>219828611But taco slinging beaners aren't white, senor
>>219827853all smart people are weeaboos, they just don’t wear anime t-shirts, Becuase they aren’t incels.Google how many celebrities love Japan.
>>219828904They don't need to wear animu tshirts for people to know they're dorks. Japan fascination is just Paris syndrome but for westoids. The most mundane shit like vending machines is treated like some alien tech only because it's in Japan.
>>219828471Interesting. In America we just call em gooks.
>>219827853This movie remains of the highest grossing live-action films of all-time in Japan.
>>219828188When I was going through withdrawals I'd pretend I was tom cruise in those scenes. It helped.
>>219829198No it isn't.The highest grossing live action film in Japan is Titanic.
>>219831048Titanic isn't in Japan, retard.
>>219831089Titanic was released in Japan retard.You said nothing about the movie having to take place there.
>>219828946Paris syndrome exists because people go their expecting to meet white French people and instead it's a bunch of niggers. Japan on the other hand is a clean nice country with a robust culture, and filled with Japanese people. You idiots love to throw around these pop psychology terms but half the time you don't even use them right.
>>219831328Depends where you go in Japan.Some places are filled to the brim with indians, blacks and other foreigners.
>>219831152I accidentally the whole thing. It was supposed to read, "one of the highest grossing." Which is true, it's still the fifth highest grossing live-action film ever in Japan. Fourth is Top Gun: Maverick. Third and second are local films. First is Titanic.
>>219831328it's similar to Paris Syndrome in the sense that white weebs think it will be like their Japanese cartoons to work and live there, but then the actual work culture there surprises them.Also Japs tend to avoid foreigners leaving them isolated which they don't expect and can't cope with
>>219831328People generally are not disappointed in’s trip to japan
>>219827853It's an anti-colonial, anti-imperialist movie.I think that's what gives 'MURICANS the ick because it's one step away from scoailism.The Mask of Zorro was a similar movie.
