@tanuzou1027 You can’t find classical storytelling or male role models in the West easily anymore. Good vs evil, emphasizing virtue and struggle, personal growth, the hero’s journey, masculine and feminine. Anime still has it all.

前にロシア人が「日本のアニメはどれだけの人を救っているのか、日本人は知らない」ってポストをしていて、その中でロシア人やアメリカ人、他の国々の人もその意見を「その通りだ」って肯定していたんだけど… そんなに救いになるものなの？確かに日本のアニメは面白いものが多いけど、そんなにたくさんの人の心を救うものだったとは考えたことも無かった。

@vincentdonofrio @StanleyKubrick Appreciate the insight. You owned the role, too, great work that stands the test of time. I can picture that thousand yard stare vividly.

When performing a @StanleyKubrick script, the lines are written by Stanley in his films i believe. Alot of it rewritten daily by him in his trailer or right on set. In his chair, his typewriter in front of him. All the dialogue is written in a very matter of fact way. It's common in all his films. Stanley was a very straight forward person. And his very specific dialogue was the same. As an actor working for him i quickly got the sense that he wanted every syllable, every bit of punctuation used and made relevant in the performances. Every period present, every comma etc. And no pauses. Very rare when he would consider that a pause could help a delivery. Yet i'd have to do this while still performing as the character i brought forward to help tell the story. So the different performances/characters come across as individuals but the dialogue in every film no matter what extra choices the actor brings physically and emotionally has a similar tone a similar cadence and flatness for lack of a better term. There is an uneasiness to it. A subtle tone of uneasiness. And simply because of his way of writing it and the actors total commitment in performing it exactly punctually the way wrote it. A tone that stands out different than any other performed dialogue in other directors film. A very particular uneasiness in the sound of it. I'm not saying it's better but it somehow perfectly told the story in a way only Stanleys films could. That uneasy tone is so prominent in all his films. Although never spoken about i remember realizing a month or probably more in that this is definitely different and began to enjoy his writing so much. Stanley never discussed this. There was so many realizations i had while making that film with him. All of them had to do with me learning that i'm just making a film, i'm making a Kubrick film and this is how it's done. What a thrill it was to work with him as the 24 yr old actor i was then.

@tomkrcha Very cool.

@BlastingThrough @TheReconCast You should definitely include it, Mike.

Bud, related to your post, in "Blasting Through," I'm thinking about including a section on the facts vs. the myths surrounding Vietnam. It always astounded me that the Communists received commendations for killing civilians. As you know, the death squads at the village level killed anyone who improved the lives of peasants such as medical personnel, social workers, and school teachers. -- from Nixon Presidential Papers

On October 6, 1966, Special Forces Captain John McCarthy — a decorated Green Beret — walked out of Fort Leavenworth a free man after more than a year behind bars. Convicted of killing a Cambodian national during the Vietnam War, McCarthy had always claimed the man was no civilian, but a communist double agent responsible for American deaths. His release, pending appeal, exposed deep divisions within the Army — between justice and duty, law and loyalty. New evidence later supported McCarthy’s defense, showing he acted under intelligence directives, not personal vengeance. Two years later, his conviction was overturned, clearing his name but leaving behind hard questions about war’s moral gray zones. For Captain McCarthy, freedom came with scars — and a story that still challenges how we define right and wrong in war.

@ShitpostRock Not all of them.

@Criterion Excellent taste from Ms. Bigelow. Army of Shadows is brilliant. She knows how to ratchet tension quite well herself in her films, so it's interesting to hear about her influences in that regard.

@SandyofCthulhu Modern American video game writing has been captured by low effort flippancy, along with the MCU et al. Eager for a return to earnest storytelling.

The modern world's approach to humor is best-described by C. S. Lewis (in the persona of the demon Screwtape) "Flippancy is ... very economical. Only a clever human can make a real Joke about virtue, or indeed about anything else; any of them can be trained to talk as if virtue were funny. "Among flippant people the Joke is always assumed to have been made. No one actually makes it; but every serious subject is discussed in a manner which implies that they have already found a ridiculous side to it. "If prolonged, the habit of Flippancy builds up around a man the finest armour plating against the Enemy [God] that I know, and it is quite free from the dangers inherent in the other sources of laughter. "It is a thousand miles away from joy; it deadens, instead of sharpening, the intellect; and it excites no affection between those who practise it."

Hey @Criterion , @ArrowFilmsVideo , @VinegarSyndrome , Lee Tamahori (rest in peace)'s The Edge deserves special treatment and preservation. Please consider it, thanks.

Rest in peace Tomonobu Itagaki, one of the greats. He has passed, and we remain behind in a world full of ninja dogs.

@Asmongold Condolences.

A few days ago my father passed away. It's difficult for me to even find the words for the emptiness it leaves me with, he was my last family member in the state and I was there with him until the end. I will endure, but I don't think I'll ever be the same I love you, Pa

Very few of us know the people at the tip of the spear. We can make the biggest impact by uniting against the handle, making that behavior far more taboo than it is now.

The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater. — J.R.R. Tolkien
