Atlantis: The Lost Empire - Disney's Underrated Masterpiece
Переглядів 18 тис.7 місяців тому
The early 2000s was a rough period for Disney, which saw them release a string of critically and commercially unsuccessful films during their Post-Renaissance era. Leading this group was none other than their sci-fi adventure masterpiece, Atlantis: The Lost Empire. In my eyes, Atlantis is Disney's most criminally underrated animated feature, and this video essay explains why... If you enjoyed t...

My Interpretation of 500 Days of Summer
Переглядів 1,6 тис.Рік тому
500 Days of Summer is one of the most discussed rom coms of all time, but a large majority of that discussion centers around who was wrong in Tom and Summer's relationship. But in my opinion, there is no hero or villain in this movie, because they both were in the wrong.

      Also, I wanted to say, even if you exclude the great comedy, character moments, aesthetic, and theming, there are still so many things introduced in thriller bark. Kuma, Ryuma, the invisibility fruit (important for many reasons), ancient giants, Moria himself (who will most likely become relevant again), perona, Lola, vivre cards explanation, BROOK (and his connection to laboon), etc.

    For me one piece is like you said great but the moment it became better than you could ever imagine, the moment you just could not stop watching anymore was enis lobby, this because you saw glimpses of the powers they will use later on, and the firs real fight and tread forming action agianst the government, we get reminded of evryone’s backstory and we get robin’s backstory, this is also very close to marine fort and basically this was the moment for me I could not stop and the real story started cause it this was the turning moment what was responsible for evry other thing in the story if you understand me, although from a certain point and you may not forget in the fights we see that the new ones are animated better, more impact frames than the most other anime

    Its been 85 days since I started watching onepiece due to this video and I am currently on episode 345 (Thriller Bark). I haven't watched the full anime but from what i have watched I will share my experience. New shonen anime are about raw story(in the sense we can predict what will happen next and how will they reach their final goal) and fight scenes which are more focused on teen age category while this anime is not only for teen age but for everyone(I am 16yrs old).My friends who have not watched onepiece just say that its boring, old story , naruto is better blah blah.. while others who have watched this anime say that its undeniably the best anime we have ever witnessed which I realised while watching it and its True!!. You may feel the start of the show to be slow (for like 20-30 episode) but once you reach to arlong arc, it will take off like a rocket and you will fall in love with this anime in no time. This anime genre is mostly on adventure and world building which takes so much time but its worth watching it. This anime is not known for frequent fight but its known for having best fight scenes. This is not a perfect anime but its still better than every anime that has released. I was a naruto fan and when somebody praises about onepiece i just think that they are bluffing but when i actually started watching it, I can say that its the greatest ever story told and you should give it a try. Dont look the numbers, just enjoy the show and it will take you smooth like butter(there are thousands of reason i appreciate it but if i write it then it will take days to write)❤😎

    I've been Tom. I think they were both ett emotionally/romantically selfish in terms of seeking validation I think you're commentary is excellent The only thing I would add is Tom's overwhelming NEED- which he was harbouring BEFORE this He wasn't complete. Something made him yearn for a completion in an romantic ideal Which is hopelessly adolescent They're both fantasists. He blew this up into his own personal opera She funnelled this into "I can be a version if myself I like"

    I highly recommend watching the big 3. I personally saw naruto first one piece second and bleach last but If i could advise, id say do naruto or bleach and save one piece for last since it is the longest. I liked one piece and i always keep my heart open while watching but when i got to wano I started realizing why i had such a hard time watching it or why i kept getting so bored... I think for me its that it felt really stale and repetitive, i just couldn't put my finger on why. i kept watching and pushed through wano and somewhere in there i realized I wasn't enjoying it as much because there were no stakes. ITs fight after fight nobody dies to build that seriousness or that feeling of tension to better tell stories or to create depth in emotion. And somethi8ng that itched at me was every time a new strong character is introduced with some crazy ability or strength and they use it on someone and they just live... It just wasn't there, that feeling of excitement like watching bleach or naruto. I know its supposed to be more of a kids show since its silly and all but to me it will always be such a sad loss of potential with the dark themes of corrupt governments, slavery, dictatorship, human trafficking and human testing and so on. That with a more serious tone could have wiped and i kept watching for any shred of serious moments those are the only times i could enjoy the show to the fullest. If you want something more serious id recommend bleach or naruto however, if you like something long and funny go ahead and watch one piece. Enjoy your stay and enjoy your ride.

    One piece is cool man but the success of quality of live actions is not proof of the quality of the animated series, that’s a silly point to make . For example cowboy bebop could 100% have an amazing live action adaption , it just requires a team of people that understand the source material and don’t change shit. The live action bebop has literally nothing in common with the original show outside of character names.(the guy who played jet was really good though)

    Couldnt agree more. I got into the series in 2020 (I think) I was revisiting Naruto and Bleach, and remembered one piece never clicking with me. Except I remembered after that i read impel down and marineford cuz it was in shonen jump magazine back in 2010 and found some of it interesting. Always wrote it off for its length. I started it that summer and I've watched the whole anime and read the whole manga multiple times. Saw Film Red in theatres when that came out and I've seen that many multitudes of time as well, now. Have it on Blu-ray. Love Uta. I love this series so much. It's so damn good.

    "Nothing more than a one-note selfish lover, who plays with Forrest as she sees fit, only to leave when opportunity arrives." My take exactly. No self-respecting man in his right mind would ever enter into a relationship with a tramp like Jenny. Sure, you can feel sorry for her, but this movie is titled "Forrest Gump" and not "Jenny Curran".
