clint eastwood-his role as the man with no name

poolcleaner says...

<3

The tactics of low budget filming ahahahahahahhaaaa... I would be pissed if someone cut down the tree in my yard though! My side, your side, my side, your side -- MY TREE. Sounds like it was a lot of fun -- and stress lol.

Love me some Akira Kurosawa, tooooo. Yoooooooo! Also made Seven Samurai AKA The Magnificent Seven. I love the cross pollination between Japanese, American and Italian cinema. Not to mention British, French, Spanish, German and Russian. (Sorry for leaving your country out, all cinema is connected tbh.)

Anyway, love the scene at the end of A Fistful..More where Clint goes around colleting all the dead bodies on his wagon. Its such a great closer. And Good the Bad and the Ugly is epic af, not low budget at all -- it's a dang war film! If you haven't seen these films, at least watch the g, the b, and the u. It's a grand spectacle.

Duck You Sucka footage in there, which is not an Eastwood film, it's about an Irish terrorist's (James Coburn, the guy who got his luggage shot by Mel Gibson in... Cant remember the name of that film) involvement in the Mexican Revolution. The kill count is pretty impressive. Fuckin good movie, from the Once Upon a Time tril.

Japanese Pool Player Gives Great Interview

If you had made a comment once every 10 times you claim to have visited the sift, you'd be in a position to not be "Probabtionary". links just happen when you type it.

"P" members aren't allowed to post links due to trolls and spammers. We want to know you're here seriously.

In truth, I was intimating you were a "sock puppet", or a throwaway membership created by someone here who didn't want to take responsibility for the post. Whether as a joke or for trolling, it's still looked down on.

Welcome to the Sift! ...finally.

ps. I really have nothing to do, officially, with the Sift. I was using the community "we" above.

Mmmm.... bait....bait.....why do some people love baiting other people....oh, wait....i think it has something to do with the other kind of 'bating...also, I've been coming to this website everyday since wimp.com used to be just a grey page and yourdailymedia was still a thing sooooo for those who have obtained some sort of valuable information by hovering over my name you can go bake yourself a pie. And perhaps explain to a poor mute fool like me how to add a url to a post without it being dedacted like an idiot.

where are all the big H.P lovecraft films?

poolcleaner says...

Doesn't Netflix have Dagon and Necronomicron: Book of the Dead? I looove John Carpenter's Apocalypse Trilogy and The Mist RULES! Frank Darabont has also made many a Stephen King flick (Shawshank especially).

Off the top of my head, I would say HP Lovecraft isn't simply about madness driving horrors, it's biological horror, rather than supernatural. So almost anything by David Cronenberg, a lot of Japanese and Korean film, such as Akira, Uzemaki, The Ring movies, (which is based upon a Japanese folklore, but in modern times became biological horror, the Ring is actually a hybrid biological, technological virus), etc.

Also, the Matthew McCant-spell-his-last-name's True Detective breeches the Lovecraftian realm on a subtle and then not so subtle way in the end, such as the concept of "black stars" in a constant daytime of white background. I would say it's pre-Lovecraftian mythos from authors in the 1800s writing nihilistic almost biological horror, more just heavy uncomfortable writing. I can't recall the primary author who inspired Lovecraft beyond Bram Stoker's The Lair of the White Worm.

Anyway. I love horror, thrillers, suspense, nihilism, pulp and gothic literature.

Japanese Pool Player Gives Great Interview

glyphs says...

"Japanese pool players gives great interview"!?!?!?

More like "idiot Englishman imposes a bloody terrible interview to fellow human being, perpetuating bigotry and lack of cultural awareness as acceptable behaviour for a professional communicating adult.

I'm sorry for yelling.

Pranking in Japan

Stormsinger says...

The biggest question that Japanese television leaves in my head is, why would anyone ever want to appear in one? It's not like they offer great prizes to the winners. The only prize I've ever seen is not being humiliated. And you can have that experience simply by staying home, or doing pretty much anything else.

Ghost In The Shell - Trailer #2

Zawash says...

Fortunately, a western adaptation will also tone down any kindergarten up-skirt tee hee, if present. Hard core Japanese anime isn't necessarily all good.

RedSky said:

Honestly, it's an adaptation for Western audiences. Of course the lead is going to be white. I'm more concerned the subject material is inevitably going to be dumbed down.

Husband doesn't speak to Wife for 23 Years

moonsammy says...

I think the fact that they're Japanese has a *lot* to do with how this played out. I'm not going to claim to be any sort of cultural expert, but I know in general that Japanese culture is wildly different from what we're used to in more Western nations. Pride is huge, as is suppressing emotion. Could easily see this having started as sulking and just continuing out of a sheer inability to admit to a mistake (even indirectly). The wife likely could have talked to him about it and gotten him to speak, but she wouldn't want to hurt his pride or feel as though she's accusing him of anything negative. Don't see anything like this happening in damn near any other society on Earth.

NieR: Automata - Paris Games Week 2015 Reveal Trailer | PS4

jmd says...

What? Ps3 was good? pfft... all of the games in the series has been shit. However this is loosly based on them, and I have a soft spot for girls in mini skirts wielding big swords so I will wait for the reviews. The demo has been released but won't be able to tell how tactic progression works or if the game plays the same from the first fight to the last until the final is reviewed. It is on my list of games I am interested in for 2017 which is filled with many Japanese releases, hopefully they actually come out. Right now my one and only ps4 game that I had interest in getting is FF15. I have a gaming pc for everything else that came out.

Godzilla - The Soul of Japan

moonsammy says...

I assume there had to have been at least a few Japanese who saw the original version then not long after traveled to the US and watched our bastardized interpretation. Wonder whether they would have been more upset or confused...
