What did y'all think of this?
Shogun (2022)
i thought it was a fine show, anon
what did you think?
White male humiliation ritual
I liked it.
Pretty awful. The lead actor was shockingly bad, and so was the writing in general.
The aesthetics made no sense, it was lit like a horror movie, everything ridiculously dark and smoke everywhere. Why?
The over-use of post-processing and green screens made everything look amateur - i get that they had to hide the fact that it was shot in vancouver and not in japan but man they did a poor job. The depth of field was irritating because every single shot was completely out of focus, and i am so sick of drone shots it's not funny.
The original was a LOT better.
SAKE SAKE SAKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
oh wait wrong movie
Nothing happens: the show
any other samurai shows that i should watch other than this one?
Shows? No.
Movies? Yes dozens. Starting with Kurosawa would be wise.
gonna watch
start to watch
they're talking in chinese or something
gotta read subtitles
turn that shit off
fuck this series and fuck this series
I already watched a few Kurosawa's and really liked them, damn, that sucks that there are no shows then.
2022
fuck you. I thought I lost my mind for a sec
Y'all
I think OP is a faggot
I haven't watched it but there is a mini-series from the 80s based on the same book as this show.
not enough of that cutie instead of that ugly manfaced SEA
Kino overload, the type we don't get it anymore. Yes it was PEOPLE TALKING but IN JAPAN, and that was what it made it good, the balls on the writers to cuck all battlefags. Its the proof of concept of why the white savior trope works as a history, my heart goes out to ricecels, you don't get this quality history telling on non-WMAF romance, sorry!
Could be good, i'll give it a watch
Any new chinese costume drama>> this slop
The original Shogun with Richard Chamberlain
lil Timmy fantasy: the show
yawn
Fuk u bloody
Why are Chinsects so ass blasted about this show?
Nobody wants your gweislop
terrible
I didn't watch it btw
this
whitey japan savior fantasy crap
calm down Timmy. might pop a blood vessel
Just don't like doughy white fags in my Japanese period pieces.
Simple as
en.wikipedia.org
Go nuts.
Watch this version. Toshiro Mifune. (nuff said) No blue-vision.
FUK U BLOODY BENSHOD BLOODY
all caps
Timmy is malding
lolololol
BLOODY FUK U BLOODY
Blackthorne being ready to condemn himself to an eternity of hell as a fuck you to Toranaga was pretty kino.
he's still seething hard
lol
whats her name
HOW CAN SHE SWIMMM ??
uh oh! Timmy has lost it.
Thinks everyone is Indian
lmfao
The show sucked arse. It was a hate letter to the original series, the book, the white saviour complex and history itself.
The production team's seethe for whites ran so deep that they couldn't even bring themselves to cast John as one.
The acting here was atrocious, the camera effects and editing was visually upsetting, 90% of the scenes were filmed in a basement, the writing and pacing was abysmal.
There was nothing captivating about this series. John's story was a bait and switch (you are just a monkey I keep for my entertainment, zero plot relevance white man), Mariko talked in circles then speuku'd and the japanese politicking was just boring but insisted upon itself not being so.
utter wank. Glad the shills stopped getting their wage
Imagine actually being Indian though. Lol
was a good show, too bad the general here was just an excuse to spam wmaf
why?
what does that have anything to do with this show being lil Timmy power fantasy crap?
the first half was good, the second half was bad. It was almost comical how much how much that one girl became a Mary Sue.
I'm the love interest.
Also I'm the only one who speaks English, making me the most important.
Also I have the most tragic backstory
also I'm the most selfless character in the show and yearn for death
Also I'm a skilled martial artist
Also I'm best friends with the empress and grew up in the imperial palace, we're practically sisters
fuck off
Its such a good character moment, its also when he finally understands that aspect of Japanese culture, he full integrates in a way.
Show is full of these moments, the thread is obvious full of ASIA posters buttmad about the race mixing aspect.
She was really ugly too
just an excuse to spam wmaf
yellowfevercels are mentally ill. they don't need an excuse to spam their fetish
Bullshit, it was the most pleasant Anon Babble got since /jazz/. There was patricians writing about heir appreciation of Japanese culture, literal oldfags posting bits of the original novel, plenty of high brown discussion and shitposting. Porn was a pallet cleanser.
I meant highbrow, I am sleepy.
it made me really wanna fuck marikos actress
she didn't even show her penis tho
very average and only rated highly because it's literally place, japan
y'all
piss off faggot
Brakthorn kun, I will make you shogun, the last samuri, give you cunny harem.....but you cannot have your ahip
2022

Dude....it's 2089. 2016 was 200 years ago
"You ever seen the great palaces of lisbon, madrid, florence, naples, rome? they're nothing compared to this small city brimmed with wooden houses with a wall made of paper" - A wise Spanish to his fellow European
0/10 barbare scum trash

Literally the opposite but ok. Asian man humiliation ritual white man power fantasy
i watched it recently because it was recommended by a guy who turns out has dogshit taste

one of the most boring shows I have ever watched.

Damn.
(2022)
In true Anon Babble fashion I had the best discussions about the novel(s) in the Anon Babble threads. Just finished Tai-Pan and it was just as good, perhaps better
