It is actually even more meaningless than that anon. genuinely could mean anything from that the guy read the script and made a few changes or that he was on set one day and said the costumes looks nice.
Wonder if the remake will be any good. A bunch of media outlets that are so obsessed with finding racism that doesn’t exist had the audacity to say “we hope the new Shogun remake doesn’t white wash history” … uh the book and original miniseries was 90% Japanese cast and very few whites. Why the frick would a new version made in 2022 go the other direction? morons.
I’m sure it will suck though because it will likely incorporate more anti western attitudes than needed
The book was alright, I wanted to really like it but the character name changes were annoying as a historygay and the "WOW Japan is so HECKIN' BASED for having sex toys and no-fault divorce!!!!" was really trite after a while. How is the TV series regarding that stuff?
The way he kept shamelessly fawning over that jap chick was totally cringe.
She was like, "I am a noblewoman, expected to marry to preserve my line & honor, etc." explaining a rich and complex tradition going back centuries.
He was like, "BUT I LOVE YOU!" Turns out the guy was gay.
Other than that, kino movie and should be required watching.
Ok I'll watch it
What do you mean OP I’ve watched Generation Kill many times
I read the book, is it as pointless?
Basically, yeah. The author is the executive producer so it's an extremely faithful adaptation.
executive producer is a meaningless title anon
Not as meaningless as your dick you puddle of phlegm.

>it doesn't mean anything
>except this
If a title could mean anything it doesn't actually mean anything anon.
My dad had the full series and I knew even then it was just self-insert boomer airport shit like Bernard Cornwell.
>the greatest tv miniseries
is dekalog, out 1, i claudius and berlin alexanderplatz
a fellow movieseur
basado
I remember reading this at like age 14 and even then thinking it was kinda shitty.
Quite honestly the first non-gay OP I've seen in quite a while. Well done.
SO COME ON YOU BARBARY PIRATES

>look up remake
>it's made by FX

This and that Scorsese movie really hightlight what bugmen asians are.
>casual reference to pederasty
>never gets brought up again

Accurate to a fault
>read all of shogun
>watched all of shogun
>played all of nioh

Centennial > Reilly, Ace of Spies > Lonesome Dove > Shogun for miniseries kino
Lonesome Dove and Shogun make you based anon. I will definitely be watching the other two now.
Watch Rome if you havent, its basically a miniseries

Orientalists are fricking scum.
OP is a gay once again.
>greatest miniseries
That's not John Adams anon.
this falls off quickly after the first 2 eps.
the first half is pure kino and after that it's still very good.
King Rat is better
have you ever heard of Generation Kill?
