Is it really on par with the best and most important cinema has to offer?
>>220535148>Is it really on par with the best and most important cinema has to offer?Supreme example of /tv/ Strawmanning
>>220535148I enjoy The Dark Knight but I thought it was inappropriate to put such a recent film in the Turner Classic Movies. This sort of line extension just kills the brand.
No Westoid cinema has done slice of life as well as anime.
>>220535218Posts like this are what /tv/ probably should've been, but just get overlooked.>>220535240Plenty of ~70s did and the modern equivalent of SoL would be self produced youtube videos.
>>220535276Key term: as well asWestern SoL doesn't have the soul that anime does regularly.>self produced youtube videoslol
If you were considering the body of work as a whole movie is pretty bad compared to the tv anime Also criterion movies aren't good they are just like works that are representative of different genres
>>220535148>Is it really on par with the best and most important cinema has to offer?No. It's superior.
>>220535292>Western SoL doesn't have the soul that anime does regularly.That's because anime boils it down to a formula because it's a cartoon.>>self produced youtube videosIf you want formulaic SoL in 2026 you can just watch youtube videos of people doing whatever you want, whenever you want, with whoever you want.The reason you like anime more is because they AREN'T Western. You can have a group of girls in anime that aren't fucking mad dudes and whoring themselves out on onlyfans.The second you make something modern+western it's going to become something you don't like.The best the SoL genre has to other might be unironically be Fast Times at Ridgemont High and American Graffiti as well as the 1 million movies they inspired and the other million that came before them that inspired them
What are some good horror anime? Preferably non-digital animation.
>>220535381It's not a formula. It has certain characteristics but that's not formulaic.>you can just watch youtube videos of people doing whatever you wantThese don't have the complexity of something composed. The way non non biyori expresses the listless tranquility of rural life seen through the eyes of a kid for example.A better comparison would be Louis Theroux documentaries.>The second you make something modern+western it's going to become something you don't like.I don't know I think Florida Project has a charm to it even though it's pretty degenerate. But I doubt a story about an OF whore would be honest enough to capture that seem feel.
>>220535393I don't think an anime can ever actually be scary, butI remember enjoying Ghost Hunt.You're better of just watching Psycho Pass or Death Note.Hellsing/Ultimate is good.Mob Psycho 100 is action, but has ghosts and stuff.You know what.Just play Bloodborne. That was the first scary video game I ever played and it took me a long to beat.
>>220535475I'm not reading all that
The real SoL of the west is bodycam footage.
>>220535148>Is it really on par with the best and most important cinema has to offer?It is glaringly obviously, trivially provably and objectively superior and you know it. Your question is just bait. Unironically apologize.

>>220536142The funniest shit ever is looking at this guy and realizing he's gone from a 2/10 to a 5/10 because so many indians have flooded the country.
>>220535148Go back to /a/
It's one of the best films in its genre. Which may not sound like much, but as far as slice of life anime goes it's really good.
>animesoul>westoid slopsoulless
>>220535148Even the best of cinema isn't much.A film is just a poor man's play.A play is just a poor man's script.A script is just a poor man's novel.A novel is just the product of a man who lived poorly.
