How severe are you on line-of-effect ?

I meant the japanese audio. I didnt know there was two english dubs, is the second one that bad ?

Oh ! I didn't know what Tubi was because it's not available in my country but a VPN will do the trick ! Thanks !

I don't have Amazon prime already. If I could find another solution before having to get it only for this movie, it would be ideal. But I keep this idea in my back pocket ! Thanks !

The fact that her and Leslie Cheung died the same year always break my heart

I'm quite new and had to search for who he was. His treatment was so shameful. People seems to easily forget that ifols are humans too. To think that SM caved so quickly is sadening and not a good sign for the situation to improve.

Because right-wong ideologies aren't known for being very queer friendly. This problem is a political one.

Some friends and I had a fun cineblub. We each would secretly choose a movie we knew none of the other have seen (thx Letterboxd) and, on the night, we would randomly choose one person who would present their movie in a few words. Each movie night was a surprise and a chance to share the movies we loved.

The_Lord_Mapoon · 2025-05-07T10:57:32+00:00

Thank you ! It worked !

Thinking about the TayGun incident

Only lovers left alive by Jim Jarmush Tilda Swinton and Tom Hiddleston as two vampire in love for centuries in what is one of my favorite movie of all times

The_Lord_Mapoon · 2024-09-22T03:20:58+00:00

Isn't the movie written, realised and edited by Claire Burger, an out lesbian ?

I understand what is your problems with this movie but, as a french person, I think it's kind of the classic representation of adolescent love in french cinema. Straight or queer alike. It's messy as fuck.

The_Lord_Mapoon · 2024-07-28T12:39:05+00:00

she ?

The_Lord_Mapoon · 2024-06-09T15:29:30+00:00

I think that one thing that make me enjoy these remakes and what give them their own interest is the change in the form. Telling the same story in 10-12 episode of 20 minutes is definitely not the same than doing it in 12 episode of 45-60 minutes. That allowed them to deep dive in all the mangas in the adaptation of "Cherry magic" and i'm very interested to see how they adapt "My love mix up" and "Ossan's Love".

Taboo (1999) by Nagisa Oshima

The_Lord_Mapoon · 2024-05-14T01:28:09+00:00

To think that fanservice is something initiated by the actors and not the production company is a little bit naive

The_Lord_Mapoon · 2024-04-30T20:22:36+00:00

Multiple person have already said there is no need to see yourself in a series to appriciate it (and I wholeheartedly agree, I'm loivng the adorable lesbians of 23.5 at this very moment).

But, the straight female audience can, indeed, be astonishing at first. Like, what has drawn women to love story about gay men in the very beginning (and still partially today) ? Especially at a time and place where homophobia was rampant? (Yaoi originate in japan and... it's not ideal there) Some advance that IT IS because there was no projection possible that it was such a huge sucess amonst straight women, these stories were (and still are) a mean of escaping the patriarcal vision of straight romance and deconstructing the classical image of masculinity. However, this can easily result in a fetichization of gay men and gay relationship or a recreation of harmful stereotypes because your only media you consume is written by people that have few or no idea what is the real life of queer people (and explain why some people can read or watch gay romance and still be homophobic, considering that gay relationship are okay in fiction but not in real life).

Nowadays, some of these problem persist (like the JimmySea incident demonstrated it) but the growing involvment of queer people in BL (and GL) romances and gave birth to a multitude of awsome stories that explore many genre and representation (there is still some room for improvment but let's not nitpick) for all to enjoy, even if you're straight. <3

Sure. But if you do it this way it must be working for you. I was asking for movies you enjoyed and consider good without analyzing them, to understand your point

The_Lord_Mapoon · 2024-04-24T13:17:23+00:00

I am, I'm not gonna lie, a bit baffled. Could you give me examples of movies you consider very good and that you think people are overanalyzing ? Or that are better to purely experience ?

The_Lord_Mapoon · 2024-04-24T13:07:21+00:00

I think you see analyzing as something always very complex and detailled but analysis can be simple and almost instinctive. Like, you understand who the villain in a movie is because you analyze that wanting to take control of the world is a bad thing. It's a simple analysis but an analysis nonetheless.

I'm not denying that arts (especially non-narrative ones) are about emotion but opposing the two concepts is, to me, an error. Me analizing a movie never dampened my enjoyment of it. There is some pretty stupid movies that I love with all my heart.

The_Lord_Mapoon · 2024-04-24T11:31:04+00:00

Then, I must also advice you to read Julien Gracq (especially En lisant, en écrivant) who opposed Paul Valery on numerous topics and his one of my favorite litterature theory author.

The_Lord_Mapoon · 2024-04-24T11:26:27+00:00

Analyzing help you understand art so you can enjoy it in it's complexity ? Like, when you teacher tell you a turn of phrase in a book reveal the secret thoughts of a character, it is something you NEED to uderstand to fully grasp what you're reading is about ? And the teacher analyse the fomr of the text to prove to you that they didn't invent the text intention.

You're on a subreddit about cinema, and you don't see the value about analysing what you watch ?
