>I've heard a great deal about you, Fa Mulan
>why does manga outsell our comics?
they're succeeding, because it's a massively expensive embarrassment that is underperforming.
heh
2pbp
they should hire anons from Cinemaphile to help em come up with good ideas
cause this is fricking ass
i could come up with a better space sci-fi story in 5 minutes than this gay woke diversity bullshit
here's a tip you israelite child molestors, 1 - stop with the fricking "muh rebellion" shit, it's getting too cliche
diverse, sure
woke? no
Diverse = woke.
You know well that diverse is literally means Black person according to merican right?
How can it ve diverse with all that black and brown?
How can it not br woke with all the bullshit it pushes?
the problem is precisely that they're trying to make star wars
lucas wasn't trying to make star wars. he just thought flash gordon and samurai movies were cool and bashed them together
Rebel Moon is in part inspired by Seven Samurai but you're right. Rebel Moon fails because Snyder borrows heavily from superior media instead of trying to make something new.
With Star Wars, Lucas took inspiration from WW2, Samurai flicks, Westerns, campy sci-fi serials and even from his own life. Snyder doesn't do this, he outright just shoves in a bunch of concepts from stuff like 40k, Dune, Star Wars etc, and adapts the plot from Seven Samurai around these things. That's why the film comes across as so empty, there's nothing behind it but ideas from superior pieces of media.
>this gay woke diversity bullshit
but that's what they want to make so any ideas from us wouldn't get approved
Dude, the last thing on the minds of these israelites is making “kino.”
why can't we have sci fi films with modern film making technology but 80's writing?
See
because the younger people making movies now only watch shit from the 80's instead of classics that inspired the 80's movies. Modern movies are derivative of movies that were already derivative, so they lack the context of the "cinematic language" that directors like Lucas and Spielberg understood.
Eh, I believe the issue with something like Rebel Moon is similar to that of the older Star Wars ripoffs: they're just copying a single movie while Star Wars copied a lot of different movies
>while Star Wars copied a lot of different movies
I would argue that while Lucas was inspired by a lot of things he still managed to make something that stands strong on its own merits
most modern movies are just shoddy copies of older better movies, especially when it comes to scifi
The Battle of Yavin took many things straight out of The Dam Busters
but that only accounts for a very small part of the whole movie
it's clear that it took heavy inspiration from it but it doesn't prevent the movie from standing on its own
The throne room scene was taken from a nazi movie. The fanfarre after the crawl is almost exactly like the end of Mars the Bringer of War. And probably other examples.
I don't think this makes the movie bad (it's a big can of worms of a topic)
My point was that Lucas drank from a lot of sources, as if Star Wars was a collage of movies and other things.
People just aren't familiar with all the source that George Lucas cribbed things from. That's why they think Star Wars is somewhat original. If they were older and into obscure nerdy shit they'd be aware.
Lucas used the cinematic language of lots of older movies in regards to how scenes were framed, how actors were plotted, dialog, character archetypes, music, effects, mise-en-scene, etc. What he didn't do is rip the aesthetics from one older movie or source to try to rehash it into something new. He actually wanted to make a Flash Gordon feature film, but couldn't acquire the rights, so he decided to combine a bunch of other influences more to create something that was clearly its own thing while still being heavily inspired by the visual language of the classics to try to evoke similar emotional responses from the audience. All the later Star Wars copycats that tried to ape the original aspects of Lucas' movies can't reach the audience in the same way, because their directors were fundamentally more ignorant about the history of cinema than Lucas. I don't even think every Star Wars copycat movie is bad, but the quality of the movie is diminished when it's just something derivative of another movie that was itself very derivative in the first place.
To be honest, i feel this is way more derivative of Dune and Warhammer 40K than Star Wars. The only thing close to Star Wars is the fact that the plot is another Seven Samurai redo, but other than that everything is Dune/Warhammer 40K.
Unlike most Star Wars ripoffs, Rebel Moons isn't going after A New Hope or the OT, it's actually a rejected Rogue One turned into it's own thing.
Do I need to mention The Dam Busters again?
Everyone knows the Battle of Yavin sequence is copied from The Dam Busters, anon. People in 1977 would have been even more aware of that than audiences today, since many of them had probably actually seen that movie when it debuted in 1955. It's an example of Lucas paying tribute to an earlier masterpiece. What Lucas didn't do is copy the name of the dog from that movie and went with Chewbacca instead, which I think is a travesty.
Agreed. Any time I get interested in a new director, writer, artist, musician, etc I eventually want to know who influenced them and then see where that leads. It's disheartening to see that lack of curiosity in people.
can't find anywhere to illegally stream it, help?
The designs ain't bad
Snyder and Visaggio’s comic adaptation clues readers into the life of the Shasu as a Wildlands world under the watchful eye of the Motherworld and the Imperium. When Lord Yismael’s wife dies, his fragile hold on power comes into question, but his precarious position grows dangerous when word comes that the Motherworld’s Royal Family has been murdered, and the terrorists responsible are hiding among the Shasu.
If you’re familiar with Zack Snyder’s film of the same name, you might wonder where exactly this story fits in the timeline and how it enhances the film. Timeline-wise, this issue is a prequel set several years before the events of the film, right at the moment of the Royal Family’s assassination. Kora, the film’s protagonist, would still be a young girl. In terms of enhancement, that remains to be seen. The comic focuses on the Bloodaxe siblings, Devra and Darrian, who are barely in the film for more than a few minutes and have no direct relevance to Kora or her quest.
Imagine seeing Star Wars (1977) for the first time and Marvel releasing a tie-in comic focused on Porkins. Yeah, it’s an odd choice.
What’s great about REBEL MOON: HOUSE OF THE BLOODAXE #1? If you thoroughly enjoyed Zack Snyder’s film and have a desperate need to learn more about the Bloodaxe siblings, this comic is for you. To Snyder and Visaggio’s credit, the Shasu feels fleshed out and lived in, with a healthy sprinkling of tribal intrigue to heighten the tension from within before the shocking news of the Royal Family murders compounds the threat level to Lord Yismael.
What’s not so great about REBEL MOON: HOUSE OF THE BLOODAXE #1? This prequel series oddly focuses on one of the least present members of the Rebel Moon cast and goes even further by narrating the unfolding events primarily through Lord Yismael, Devra and Darrian’s father. In effect, you’re two supporting cast levels removed from the film, so you’d have to really dig Rebel Moon to find this issue interesting. If you’re not a Snyder film fan, there’s very little here to grab your attention because the focus is entirely on inconsequential characters.
How’s the art? Clark Bint’s art is very good. The character designs and costumes are distinctive, and Francesco Segala’s colors are excellent. That said, the panel backgrounds lack detail, and the characters’ faces are frequently misshapen.
>Shit plot
>Stronk diverse females
>White man bad
>Garbage plot
>Flops with audience
They succeeded
It didn't flop with audience because this is a streaming movie, and the movie is filled with white men. One of the white guys end up saving the day and is probably the only character with character development.
>White man bad
He's a chink though? Or a chink Hispanic mix of some sort. Definitely not white.
Who's a chink?
The daddy regent with a stupid bibleic name. B-something.
Oh, the Balls guy, you mean?
Cool, I'm never gonna read this or watch any of the movies.
>Help us lowly unarmed farmers to fight an Imperial Dreadnaught that has nukes
>Nah frick that, it's suicide
>But we sold you grain
>Frick...okay then, I am honor bound.
Kek what a shit movie
Just because you know nothing of honor doesn't mean the character is badly written.
All the characters and the story itself is badly written. Stop simping for Snyder, do you identify with his cartoon characters?
>boring
>very gay
>extremely moronic
>liked by low IQ shitskins
It's already is Star Wars
>It's filled with just women and Blacks
hard pass
I just asked my coworker if she's watched Rebel Moon and she replied, "Is that related to Star Wars?"
>Death Star is explicitly likened to a moon
>Star Wars is about a bunch of rebels fighting the empire
If you missed whatever advertising for this movie, you might very well assume based on the name that it's some kind of Rogue One sequel.
The economy is nonsense. Think of how much money was poured into this shit, and that it supported thousands of people's lives.
>Zack Snyder reunited with Ray Fisher, his Cyborg actor from the DC films, by casting him alongside Cleopatra Coleman (The Last Man on Earth, Dopesick); the two play Darrian and Devra, a brother-and-sister team known as the Bloodaxes. They are galactic insurgents who have been angering the Mother World with a hit-and-run spree of attacks against the Imperium, without being especially effective at stopping its reign of abuse and terror.
>DARRIAN BLOODAXE
>Brother and lover of Devra and a formidable warrior whose hatred for the Imperium is equaled only by his love for his family. Darrian feels honorbound to join Kora’s stand against Motherworld’s imperialism and will sacrifice everything to cut Noble’s ambitions short.
>DEVRA BLOODAXE
>The Bloodaxe siblings were children born from a noble family of Moa and the Wilderfolk of Shasu, nomadic peoples of their home planet who share a cultural lineage with Sharaan. As they continue to antagonize Motherworld, Veldt comes calling for help — a call that Devra initially rejects. Her brother and lover has different ideas.
>The Bloodaxe family were the rulers of the planet Shasu for the past fifty years. They were predominantly a Tarungtusa family native to Shasu. Their history will be told through the comic miniseries, Rebel Moon: House of the Bloodaxe, but the modern Bloodaxes will appear in A Child of Fire. Their culture is based on ancient middle-eastern Ghazi warriors, created by the great Prophet Muhammed.
>The planet Shasu, homeworld of Devra and Darrian Bloodaxe, was long the unconquerable world. It's history goes back almost 10,000 years to when the first wave of settlers took root on the unspoiled scrub world.
>Their descendants form the planets indigenous population, the Tarungtusa (or as colonists call them, the "wilderfolk," nomadic clans who have maintained their traditional lifestyle (which heavily features crazy sci-fi technology, such as computerized, self-erecting "tents")
>Several hundred years before the events of REBEL MOON came the first wave of offworld colonists, colloquially known as the "city-dwellers" who have by now largely adopted much of Tarhungtusa culture.
>And~fifty years before the events of the movie, Shasu was at last subdued by KOSEBA THE CONQUEROR, Devra and Darrian's grandfather. A Motherworlder, who's birth name was Fidel, Koseba was originally a low-ranking officer of Imperium stationed in Shasu until he took command during the Diggers' Uprising and saved an outpost.
>For reward, he was granted the title of Feodom Shasu, which mostly entitled him to sit in the Assembly and collect trade revenue. It was pretty much a nominal title since the planet was "unconquerable." So ever ambitious he set out to conquer it for the Imperium.
>Fidel did the impossible: built a coalition, married into one of the most powerful clans, changed his name to Koseba, and adopted the ways and manner of the Tarungtusa. Alongside is wife Hiraat, he was able to bring a kind of Pax Koseba to the divided planet.
>Now his son -- Devra and Darrian's father -- sits in power as Lord Shasu, but he is not Koseba. He's not even close.
>He's 3/4 Tarungtusa but he was raised in the Citadel and educated on Motherworld. His exposure to his mother's people is limited, and his reign would never have survived without the active diplomacy of his Tarungtusa wife, Amirami.
>But Amirami is dead.
>Who will protect him from his people now?
So white guy comes in, conquers a planet made up of black savages, but after his death his mixed race descendants frick it all up?
The movie was laughably bad. sad that they've chosen to make a trilogy, seven spinoffs, and get five book deals before checking if they had a good product to start with.
>"The filmmaker behind 200".
LMAO.
>Yisrael
>YIDSREAL
yis dis rael?
I am unironically weirded out by the mix of Muslim and Hebrew shit. The characters are apparently based on Muslim Ghazi warriors but all their names comes from Judaism? How that fricking works?
The author, who is liberal as frick, is saying that all the israeli names come from the bad guy's side of the story, ie the Motherworld, whereas all the Muslim stuff, comes from the native people that were conquered but remain somewhat rebellious. The author seems to hold the lefty idea that Israel is an apartheid state abusing the poor Palestinians.
sounds like coalish gemerald
Do these bloodaxe gays have special powers or what?
Black girl magic
They have spears.

But israelites started the whole dick slicing thing.
