Fuck Netflix and fuck shills

blindspot

Good Hunting still bothers me. Shock content is one thing. It just turns out what bothers me is a lack of context.
>Does this steampunk colonial china not know anaesthesia?
>Was the point to torture?
>How did a practically mortal woman survive being reduced to almost exclusively clockwork?
>Did fatfuck seriously expect a slaughtered woman to be his obedient whore?
>Why bother drugging her if it wouldn't last?
Was this an unfortunate fact of life or a deliberate relishing of a womans suffering? Either works

I liked that one the most, but it dipped dramatically as soon as she became a cyborg. Such a forced reason for it too.

If your favourite was not one of the Alastair Reynolds stories, you are wrong.

have not decided yet but the first 4 are absolute garbage, it goes somewhat uphill from there, why even release them?

I was expecting either a son following His fathers legacy in his own way through a steampunk world. Or the meme romance between man and magically stunted spirit. What we got could still have worked. But I've spent significantly longer trying to answer my questions then anything else related to the episode. At least torture porn is openly just about the cheep thrill and shock

good hunting makes a lot more sense when you realize its about foxconn.

zima blue and secret war

Blue Zima

A nigger voluntarily goes back to slavery

The Yogurt one was the only worthwhile short. The rest barely passes the capeshit threshold.

zima blue as it was an allegory for black culture

How did you miss the point of that episode completely?

Perhaps. This still leaves the whole robogore thing. I can't self insert then I want to know why she needed to be awake and screaming when they sawed off her legs. Or how shes alive now

The Witness

she was a chink so of course a white man should be allowed to do whatever he wanted, and its not like she has human feelings or anything!

but yeah on a personal level i just don't like seeing gore. but i suppose if it was anything less it wouldn't have the impact

i was honestly waiting for her to get her magic back and pop out that metal body a fox again. never thought about what a disgusting concept forced cyborgization could be

Zima Blue was kino

It feels like Surprise Cyberization was a hamfisted attempt to push the plot along for the Spirit Hunter to enable Huli Jing to polymorph again into her fox form. Something about wild animals adapting to the harsh but inexorable reality of urban life - which is really what Good Hunting was about. I mean, that and colonialism.

I loved Zima Blue because it was able to tell a compelling story without gratuitous nudity or violence.

Brainlet tier takes, it's about reaching enlightenment.

I liked Three Robots. The bit at the end with the thumbed cats was weird, though. That just felt like weirdness for the sake of weirdness.

None

I loved zima blue, but I also love me some gratuitous nudity and violence because I think it's fun.

someone post the webm, you know which one

I tried, the concept seemed nice but fuck does it really put a shit foot forward.
First episode:
>strong wimin character
>zoomer cohort of blaxk girl and numale
>its pokemon except not cute
>ebil rich white male is antagonist
>strong wimin almost loses but wait she wins
>guess what shes also a lesbian
>and she fucks the ebil rich mans chick
>knife through a womans skull full stop
>physch the woman is really a dinasour
>other woman is horrifically killed with a spear through the head.
>shows everything in gruesome detail.
Jesus wtf who enjoys this? What person watches women get gruesomely murdered in a future liberal dystopia and thinks its entertainment?

>being able to sit through the entirety of Zima Blue

You've got my respect

None of them were really that great from a storytelling perspective. The only episodes I'd classify as worth sitting thru are as follows:
Space station spider lady, Russian monster fight, and black lady pilot.

Rest were meh, but almost ALL were visually stunning.

Fish Night.

You seem like a miserable person.

Zima blue

Even after trying to find meaning across the whole universe, the truest enjoyment you'll get is by doing what you were made to do, peacefully

Have sex

the one with the spider qt that made you want to bang it in its spider form

The Secret War.

Masterful re-imagining of the Battle of Shipka Pass.

He also seems right.

Zima Blue, obviously.
Followed by Aquila Rift and surprisingly Suits.
Secret War reminded me a bit of RtC Wolfenstein with that magical cult stuff, it would have been an entertaining movie.

All you brainlets lapping up that busted mockery of enlightenment that is zima blue. "Lol just turn your brain off and get back to work" Fucker couldn't get over his humble origins despite being far more than a pool cleaner. Think of all the pools he could clean in his new form. It also implies that we actually have some inherent purpose from birth which is also busted. Just seems like aristocratic propaganda to keep the masses down.

Good Hunting was the worst fucking episode honestly. I can't believe they portrayed that fox bitch as a good character when she was the most evil one.
>became a whore because poor
>somehow blames that on "evil white man"
>orbiting beta MC helps her with everything
>she goes on a killing spree
>this is ok for some reason
Not to mention the pointless cyberpunk to appeal to zoomers.

Blindspot shouldn't be lumped with that garbage. Apart from that based desu.

1. Fish Night
2. Ice Age
3. Secret War

>Whores bad
>Killing bad
What are you doing here?

agree with this 100%. Worst episode ever. Worst message ever.

Also, the Englishman were all portrayed like evil monkeys, while the noble Chinese were like angels. Awwww, so cute and so idiotic.

Nah, its the hypocrisy that bothers me. She became a whore (became apparently it's impossible to find another job as a attractive woman), blamed it on others, killed dozens of people and then whined how everyone is evil.

Eh killing rapists is like the least evil form of murder, and killing is part of her nature. Do you call a lion evil for killing an antelope?Also assuming it's anything like real world Asia then yeah there wouldn't be many jobs for women that aren't some form of whoring. The real hypocrisy is giving up on the magic of the natural world for some grim industrial substitute. Can't remember all the whining but I only watched through this shit once and I doubt I will do again so you're probs right to be angry about that

>rapists
No one ever raped her
>killing is part of her nature
After the "industrialization" it no longer was. She said that she can't return to her normal form anymore and she's more of a human now. She just kept killing because she's an evil bitch and it's easier for her to be angry and blame it on the tophats than accept that times have changed (like MC did) and so should she

It wasn't about 'getting over humble origins', but rather that he realised his life had meaning from the start and that his ever-increasing grandiosity would lead nowhere.

>ice age as #2
hard cringe right there

>No one ever raped her
No one ever SAID anyone raped her

>killed dozens of people
Why are you just making things up?

than what rapists are you talking about
? Sounds about right though. She must have killed when she still could transform and then there's at least these 3 guys at the end + many more to come

Good Hunting was the angry lashing out of the male Chinese director against the fact that Asian American women have the highest rate of outmarriage in the United States, overwhelmingly preferring white men as partners.

On average, the penis length of Asian races is also shorter than that of other races, making them insecure. This was what Good Hunting was about fundamentally, lashing out against Westerners

Well that's still stupid, the ever increasing grandiosity was leading him places .
>C'mon goy take the lobotomy. You had enough purpose throwing shit around and eating your neighbours
Is all I hear

Getting drugged and having your body's mechanically stimulated against your will sounds like rape to me. And if you didn't get any rapey vibes from the people pursuing the woman she saved then you might be autistic. It's Netflix they're not going to be too explicit about something with such triggering power

What is 'places'?
That he was getting more money and a larger audience?
He looked inwards, found himself and realised that was all that mattered.
Should we claim that any media which doesn't advocate exponential materialism as being primitivist/propaganda?

This is your brain on /pol/. For your sake user, take a break from Yea Forums and go outside for once.

>Getting drugged and having your body's mechanically stimulated against your will sounds like rape to me
I literally don't remember that

>And if you didn't get any rapey vibes from the people pursuing the woman
I know, they PROBABLY were trying to rape her but it doesn't mean that they 100% would. Also killing them in a brutal way is not an appropriate punishment for that "crime"

at least you got the lowest ranked one correct

They literally ripped her apart piece by piece with no anaesthesia to replace her with bits of mechanical fuckdoll and you don't remember that? Could there be more obvious a rape analogy?

How reasonable that punishment is is completely debatable and depends on your culture and personal morality. Some cut off limbs for taking bread, some kill for personal marijuana possession. Some merely lock up life destroying paedo's for a year or two and release them back into the wild like they've actually changed 'em

Right I remember now. She killed the guy and that should be the end of it. But she took it too far and even though only her legs were gone she made her entire body like that. Difficult to ever feel sorry for her.

There's no point to bondage if the sub is unconscious.

>tfw no spider wife

zima blue is metacommentary on the creative process as emanationism.

good hunting is metacommentary on china fighting what made it unique, to being subjugated due to their lack of cultural identity, to "fighting back" with the colonizer's tools applied in conjuction to a reconnection to their heritage. Read: foxconn: the animaton.

the spider legit cared about thom

I used "places" because it's the same level of vagueness used in the post I was replying to, how can you (or whoever I was replying to) say that it was "going nowhere". I don't see how those fancy projects were any less meaningful than cleaning a pool.

I'm not even a poltard, just using the jargon of this site. Replace the jew with any aristocratic group of powerful people and the same still applies. I for one come from a country where 99% of the politicians come from one school and i'm willing to bet that most of your leaders are born into power more often than not.

Someone explain to me the desert fish one, i didn't get anything from it.

Seemed pointless

dude ghost ocean lmao
that's literally it

Were they any more meaningful than cleaning a pool?

It was beautiful. If you want to look deeper you could say it reflects the dual beauty/savagery of nature. The young heedless salesman who's never seen the ocean swimming naked like a newborn while the older, experienced father cries out warning.

It's really just a visual spectacle.

Entertainment is a point. probably the most important point of media

>detail
Kill yourself you waste of oxygen.

What places? He said he scoured the galaxy for truth, and came to the conclusion with his own free will that it really didn't matter for him one way or the other,just that he was fulfilled by a simple task of cleaning the pool.

That's completely subjective and we could argue that point for ever. I'd argue that the grand scale and wider audience of the grand projects carry more meaning than a single pool but again, completely subjective. Some might say that all meaning is equal against the infinite uncaring passing of time and the writer would obviously argue that nothing carries more meaning to a pool cleaner than cleaning a pool.

Unironically Suits. Classic no-frills story, cool visuals, and characters with enough soul to make you care for them in 10 minutes.

shut the fuck up nigger, stop defending this absolute trash episode

Providing spectacles of beauty and raising questions of truth and meaning in others seems like a pretty cool place.
Again I only used the word "places" in contrast to user saying it was leading him "nowhere."

The one with the fish.

I liked the aesthetic of Lucky 13 a lot. Was pretty well thought out, and it was pretty based as a military sci-fi short. I would definitely watch a feature-length kino done in the same fashion.

Attached: love-death-and-robots-lucky-13.png (1219x610, 963K)

you're only stuck arguing because you didn't understand the point. The fulfillment he got from cleaning a pool, as a pool robot, was greater than anything else he did. Its the idea that increasingly complex minds need increasingly complex acts to achieve diminishing levels of satisfaction. So he strips himself of his mind and goes back to being a pool robot in order to be truly content again.

>providing spectacles of beauty
missing the point
>raising questions of truth
"To extract some simple pleasure from the execution of a task well done. My search for truth has finished at last. I'm going home."

I don't know how you can get more clear than that.

suits

Fish Night.

it was space, above and beyond fanfiction

>blindspot
Same.

What a fucking moron

Big surprise that when Americans make adult animation it has to be something really edgy, because how else would you know it's for adults.

Literally a mobile game

You could get the same experience from literally any Saturday morning cartoon

>Right I remember now. She killed the guy and that should be the end of it. But she took it too far and even though only her legs were gone she made her entire body like that. Difficult to ever feel sorry for her.
Reminder that you're a complete and utter moron that sticks to his worthless opinion even after being demonstrated completely and absolutely wrong. You are everything that is wrong with the world and I wish you would stop wasting our oxygen.

Nah I understood that point completely. Are you even reading my posts before replying? I'm merely critical of anything suggesting a lobotomy is the path to enlightenment. Fucker could've cleaned pools as an android but decided to make a public spectacle of crippling himself. Ending screams "reality so tough why can I even think" and it's some teen angst level philosophy that promotes self mutilation and retardation in the face of the complexity of life and it makes me literally rage seeing people play that shit off as enlightenment

I liked zima blue even though the robot was a nigger

>after being demonstrated completely and absolutely wrong
Fucking where? Just because I forgot about that one shit doesn't make her action in any way ok or that whole episode watchable. The episode is trash and so are you, neck yourself already

Please educate us on what you've identified as "the" path to enlightenment

Zima Blue, but it would have been a whole lot better if they cut all the dialogue at the end.
All we needed to know was his origin. We didn't need him to describe exactly what he was doing at the end when the visuals told enough.

Ice age was complete garbage. At least alternate history had an interesting premise. Everhthing in ice age felt sanitized as fuck, the story's been told a million times even in the fucking simpsons and something about the couple made me mad as fuck. We throw the numale shit around a lot but those two are the face of numale land

>alternate history had an interesting premise
>lol what would happen if Hitler got hit by a jelly and died? XD
Is the most reddit thing imaginable

>make an animated series
>make it so realistic it might as well be live action
What's the point then?

It's not lobotomy, it's the realization and reducing his worldview to all that he can appreciate. Why would you want the complexities of the world with you if you went across the cosmos creating bigger and bigger murals to no end.

Having a simple life could make someone fulfilled and happy in the same way being a great artist can. There's no sense of lobotomy, just a true appreciation of his original birthplace.

Ice age, while I agree was pretty bad, had much more work put into it and was more visually pleasing. It wasn't outright offensive.

Alternate histories was a flash cartoon that was painful to sit through.

i wish i had a smooth brain like yours, must be so nice to be a retard and have no worries

Because if you've achieved near-photo-realism CGI then you can convincingly show almost anything.

I'm no buddha but I can say for certain it isn't destroying your brain to achieve contentment. Accepting the absurdity and lack of inherent meaning in life and living in spite of that is far more enlightened than crippling yourself to prevent hurt fee fees in my opinion.

If you're going to have CGI monsters and spaceships and shit, I think it looks more consistent to just make everything CGI, as opposed to having live actors + CGI

>evil white man
They are, you fucking nazi piece of garbage.

>she goes on a killing spree
>this is ok for some reason

The Russian monster episode was a better Hellboy movie than the new Hellboy movie. It was like I was watching the first steps of the Special Sciences Service.

insect detected

Dude he totally lobotomised himself and now i'm not sure if you're trolling or not. He could've cleaned pools in his android form but he choose to reject the gift of higher thought in an egotistical public display. I can appreciate my humble beginnings as a screaming, shitting pukeball with no desires beyond a warm tit but that doesn't mean I want to chop off my brain to go back there.
