good afternoon, /jp/. being the incredibly erudite (if you do not understand this word you should use google) and talented individuals you all are, i have decided that we should discuss japanese cinema, and while i understand that most children here make a decision to stay in their comfort zones and watch kawaii anime ad nauseum (this is a phrase borrowed from latin. if you do not understand what it means you should use google), i am certain at least one or two people here would respect japanese culture beyond its cartoons. thus, i think we'll all find it lovely to discuss the works of esteemed japanese director akira kurosawa, whom equally esteemed american director john ford has called a genius. what is your favorite kurosawa film. for me, it's pic related.

of course, if you have never heard of kurosawa's name before, that's cool as well. after all, it's not like i'm judging your lack of exposure to cinematic or japanese culture or anything (despite the fact that this is your main passion). after all, whether or not you act like christian weston chandler (you should use google if you are unfamiliar with this person's name), creator of sonichu, is none of my concern. whether or not you fail at life and amount to absolutely nothing, that's not my concern either. whether or not you have zero talent (being physically unfit, socially marginalized, and intellectually lacking), zero virtues, and zero potential is not my concern as well. it's all your business. competition is bad for me, see, because it means i have to try harder. getting into princeton would've been much harder for me if you'd've applied yourself in life and applied to a school of such esteem instead of the community college to which you currently reside. (if not community, then special ed) therefore, i'd thank you for being mediocre, and wish you a good life, now and forever :)))

good sir, you mustn't be so quick to make assumptions. i understand it is quite easy to assume that other people have mental power roughly equal to your own, and that it's easy to dismiss truths you don't want to hear as 'shit' and people whom you disagree with as 'idiots' but this anti-intellectual attitude is extremely unbecoming of you. although many people would (and not unjustly) dismiss you as an incompetent, i know for a fact that you are not an incompetent, and are merely clouded by anger. it is important to think with a clear head, otherwise you will not attract any of the waifus whom you adore, and who would probably find you revolting in real life :(

Kurosawa is hugely overrated basically for being the first non-western auteur. Get over him you low tier weeaboo.

Korean film is far superior to Japanese shit. U mad?

op here. i quite agree with you, actually. ozu is miles superior, i think. and whilst contemporary korean cinema is superior to contemporary japanese cinema, it transcends opinion to say that jidaigeki cinema of the mid-20th century is just glorious, and for this, kurosawa would make for an ideal starting point because he's entry-level (just not entry level enough for people who refuse to branch out, unfortunately), and it isn't in my desire to marginalize anyone here. that would be very rude :(

it's so very easy to dismiss the truth as something substandard, in this case, a 'shitpost,' but as easy as it is to shut one's ears from the reality of life in this manner, i would consider it inadvisable, unless one is totally happy with the position in life one is in at the moment (let's just hope one's parents won't die anytime soon; the financial burden of self-sufficiency would come as a shock.) perhaps, if you would say why you consider it a shitpost, your claim would have some validity, but as of right now, it is unfortunate to say that such is not the case. it's okay though; i totally understand where you're coming from. sometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed. :(((

No, the worst thing is that he tries to pass his word salad as highly sophisticated opinion.

I think he needs a psychiatrist. Having such a messy thought process can be a sign of a lurking brain issue.
