Perfect Blue is overrated and incredibly boring. Tried watching Millennium Actress but gave up like 20 minutes in because le 'using their imagination' meme was cringe and silly and I didn't give a shit about the cliched story.
Satoshi Kon is the most overrated, talentless hack I have ever watched and my opinion of weebs somehow dropped lower than it was at after watching his films.
There was absolutely nothing fantastic about Millennium Actress from what I saw. The animation wasn't even that good for a movie. It was an extremely contrived plot desperately aping film cliches.
>how talented kon is at editing and artwork and framing things
You mean sloppily imitating Western standards and cliches? If he wants to have particular beautiful visuals, instead of just creating it, he has to build up that this is going to be an example of beautiful animation, and then when it it shown it is animated beauty qua animated beauty, it's not itself special it's just special wrapped in quotation marks so you: this is SPECIAL or BEAUTIFUL. It's pathetic and par the course for anime. Like all that homosexual obsession with 'cute' characters that only little girls or severely autistic men could find cute. Because it's told to them quite clearly and explicitly, that it is CUTE.
>blue velvet >references Blue Velvet and not Inland Empire, by the same director, which is also dreamlike and whose story is virtually identical to Perfect Blue
i never saw the "nolan ripped off paprika and made inception" thing. i own both. great movies. the only theme they share is "going into peoples dreams". it's more underrated for the soundtrack imo
agreed, i just recently saw Paprika and sure they have similar premises but Inception is so different its way more action played straight with its dramatic mystery of the dead wife, Paprika has that weird tentacle dude
The parade scene and that room with all the dolls with their arms up throwing Roman salutes was kino
also the near tentacle rape
>it's more underrated for the soundtrack imo
also this
Susumu Hirasawa is incredible, and he almost writes the lyrics to the girl in byakkoya in something like a pentameter, which gives it this phenomenal rhythm i've never heard anyone else quite replicate.
Most modern directors are hacks, but Nolan truly is the hackiest of all the directors. And his hackiness will be rewarded with Academy Awards in a few months because modern cinema is dead.
now go to your local bookstore and buy a copy of The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch, and you'll see how all these directors actually get their ideas. Except Philip K Dick came up with it in the 60s. Still, Paprika is great
Inception is the the dumbest movie ever. The movie is practically exposition dumps thrown at you 80 percent of the time. Visually, the movie is bland as hell and the action scenes are what you expect from Hollywood.

try tokyo godfathers
I don't like Perfect Blue or Paranoia Agent at all, but Millennium Actress and Paprika are fantastic. Don't be stupid.

I liked paranoia agent a lot and love the music in all of his stuff
You're a moron. You don't have to like anime to see how talented kon is at editing and artwork and framing things etc.
Paprika is nonsense.

the autistic men i know hate cute things and love star wars and 1980s american sci fi shit, homosexual
Literal moron
Only realistic movie about dreams
blue velvet. It's not "about dreams" but it's dreamlike.
>blue velvet
>references Blue Velvet and not Inland Empire, by the same director, which is also dreamlike and whose story is virtually identical to Perfect Blue
So it's not about paprikas?

I never understood the "Inception rips off Paprika" & "Black Swan rips off Perfect Blue" takes.
The parade scene and that room with all the dolls with their arms up throwing Roman salutes was kino
also the near tentacle rape

Paprika is a mediocre movie at best
frick off with your weebshit, c**t
Gunbuster is better than Interstellar, that's a fricking snooze fest
>Wow, Nolan is a fricking hack
reported, saged, hidden, blocked
nolan IS a hack, but he didn't rip off this movie. there's lots of movies that deal with going into dreams.
Most modern directors are hacks, but Nolan truly is the hackiest of all the directors. And his hackiness will be rewarded with Academy Awards in a few months because modern cinema is dead.
Wait til you see how much he ripped off makoto shinkai when he made interstellar

How did PKD make so much good shit?
modern morons will say drugs. but the guy was just talented
schizophrenia, and also drugs
>inception but kino
Hentaikino
>Nooooooo, you can't just make a movie that has one thing in common with another movie, that means you're a hack
By that logic, he's a hack for making Batman Begins too, since there were other Batman movies before it.
He is.
Batman Begins was entirely forgettable and provided nothing new of value.
Surprise surprise Hollywood steals everything and makes it worse
Wow, Satoshi Kon is a fricking hack.
>also half a dozen 80's and 90's softcore movies/shows
