Holy shit, it's the original. I always skipped it because it thought the subtitle meant it was a sequel and I wanted to see the original first. Probably flopped because of the retarded naming.

I liked it

my favorite Seth Rogen movie

>thought the subtitle meant it was a sequel
What?

Original would be just "Master and Commander".

Mmm no? And even then why did it make you think of a sequel?

Did you also skip Fellowship of the Ring because it obviously isn't the first one?

I did the same thing for ages. Somehow I remembered seeing a two disc version advertised on DVD when it was first released, and since then I took it to mean that there were two. Sick film though, worth the wait.

BASED RETARD

You're just being obtuse, and the user you're arguing with is right. Most of the time when a movie has a subtitle separated by a colon, it's a sequel or prequel. In Master and Commander's case, it's because the movie was planned to be the first in a franchise.

It's actually not very good and an awful adaptation of the books, it's a meme here because it's a boat movie but there are dozens of better ones around

yes

name a dozen then.

Gonna give it a watch today. I hope it's not some Pirates of the Caribbean cringe.

No, it's a great film. I watched it with my mother, who hates films and she actually paid attention to it from start to end.

The less of two weevils is foreshadowing to Jack making a lesser of two evils in the next scene

Laurence Olivier too

there are some top tier titties in that movie, I strongly recommend everyone to watch it

There's a few niggers amongst the crew, as would be historically accurate.

The Bounty

What film is it?

thank u gents
im gonna be opening a beer tonight

those are two different films you're replying to btw

The Bounty (1984)

the story is sort of a mish-mash of the books, 'Master and Commander' is the first and from it they took the ending where they pretend to be a whaler then board in a close action (in the book it's in the med with a spanish xebec and Aubrey is commanding an absolutely tiny ship). The Far side of the World is a much later novel from which the main premise of the film derives, where Aubrey is tasked with hunting a dangerous enemy frigate around South America which is trying to cripple the british whaling industry. I think they end up shooting out it's mast with a rear gun in a chase in a titanic storm and it's lost with all hands, some dutch ship called waakzaamheid or some shit.

The Hornblower miniseries is way better than the Master and Commander film.

The Aubrey-Maturin book series is better than Hornblower though.

Hornblower has a lot of faults but it's not going to have the advantage of master and commanders budget, it's just not as good though. Both book series are beyond based.

Alien, Indiana Jones and probably other "franchises" don't have subtitles. And on the other hand there are certainly many unique movies with subtitles but I'm drunk and not anglo so perdon me to not provide examples.

HMS Victory. 100 odd guns, 1st rate ship of the line. Rarely left port. Purpose was to stand in a slugging match in big naval battles.
HMS Surprise. 32 guns 5th rate/sixth rate frigate. Used for ferrrying messages, agents, gathering intel, harrassing shipping.
Different ships for different roles, not really sure what your point is?

Master and Commander is my favourite film. The charter of Jack Aubrey represents the ideal leader of men, someone that every one of us can look up; he is competent, honest, and his utmost priority is duty to his country. He is the perfect officer.

The story structure and pacing is good. Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany are great but a lot of the dialogue is corny as fuck and there is some bad acting, especially in the scenes with the common sailors talking amongst each other. You probably wouldnt pick up on it if you weren't british though.

It only feels like that because you're so used to ironic "self aware" movies with tons of quips in them. Back at the time it was completely sincere and didn't have that corny feeling.

yeah there isn't a hard rule for anything. it seems like in the 80s they had more "Part 2" or "2" in movies that had subtitles, and they have fewer now. I just looked up "80s movie sequels wikipedia" and there were lists for different decades.

No threat of obligation to societal expectations and responsibility that they have control of, just the open sea and adventure to interest them.

Pathetic cuck.

>Accepting historical accuracy makes you a cuck
who knew?

Women can't understand this movie.

Slavery was well alive at that time, and believe it or not, everyone was racist. The few blacks who were free would have had a hard time to make their way on a military ship.

unsurpassed

Any slave who made it to Canada or British soil was instantly made free. Navy was always short of manpower, hence why they had press gangs.

>i owe you money and you want actual money instead of me using sex as means of changing your mind? you monster
t h o t

You're completely and utterly wrong. The Navy was always requiring men, and escaped slaves frequently were picked up and joined. There would also be a plethora of European nationalities represented in larger ships crews.
I'm as racist as the next man, but to suggest one or two is unrealistic is wrong. If the crew were significantly black or half-caste I'd have an issue.

Think of it this way. Maybe having women in the Navy will one day enable women to understand this movie.

1805. Slavery never really took of in the UK, seen as gauche and a sign that you couldn't afford white servants. Even before it was banned outright you had Ignatius 'The Extraordinary Negro Sancho'. Prior to being outlawed it was a legal grey area, it wasn't specifically allowed in law like in other countries. By the end of the 18th (but as early as the 16th) it and been ruled in several cases that slavery was illegal.

The 1807 act abolished the slave trade in the Empire except in EIC colonies, and in 1808 the RN established the West Africa Squadron to disrupt the slave trade. 1833 abolished the slave trade throughout the Empire.

It's bad luck though. As long as their's been women in the navy it hasn't won a naval conflict.

No, they didn't. Officers started at a young age because they had so much knowledge and maths to master. There were over 3000 flag signal combinations to memorise for example.
Ratings on the other hand were nearly always adults when they joined, against their will.
Sorry but your ignorance on this topic has been completely exposed. It was not uncommon, or even remarkable, for a non-white to serve in a ship's crew. Even less for a non-Brit.
Being an officer on the other hand, was.

Also, the majority of work on a ship wasn't complicated seemanship, but brute strength that was required.

The waakzaamheid was book 5 chasing them around the cape of africa. In book 10 they go around south america (not chased) and later they find the american ship sunk off the side of an island and have to deal with their crew when they try and trick them that the war of 1812 is over.

May my Wife and Mistress never meet this guy.

I don't know for Britain but here until mid 20th century it was mandatory for any sailor (military or merchant) to start at young age, not only officers. Which means it's unlikely to have niggers on board outside very low tasks by accident. But well we're talking about brits here, I wouldn't be surprised.

Kino.

China pander is the big thing now. Like in Dr. Strange is the Ancient One was supposed to be an old Tibetan man. But a Tibetan character wouldn't get play in China, so they were going to change it to an older Asian woman. That got axed because they couldn't have a dragon lady stereotype. So then it was a younger Asian woman but they couldn't do that because something about white fetishization of slanty pussy. In the end they changed a Tibetan man into a white woman in the name of culteral sensitivity.

So a Gary Stu?

This is some stupid shit.

Well your link didn't support that. I didn't say that no sailor started young, just that it was the minority. Skilled riggers etc, probably would have been cabin boys and powder monkeys. But for the majority of tasks, pumping, scrubbing, hawling, gunnery, skill wasn't required, just strength. Did you have pressed men and press gangs in the US? Did you not have a constant shortage of men through diseases, injury and desertion?
We are indeed talking about the world's superior navy. No doubt an insignificant one that was quite small and did little other than patrol the coasts, occasionaly attack pirates and harrass shipping when the declared war did things in a peculiar and inefficient way.

No one cares in yurop, france rated Master and Commander very high despite being the villain.

I don't think Americans would have responded as poorly as they thought to being cast as the "villain" if they had kept to the books for the movie. Both sides are portrayed as honorable sailors for their nations in the film and it would have been fun to see the Royal Navy in the golden age of sail running scared for part of the movie from the upstart Americans, even if it ultimately ends in defeat.

They could also have rewritten the acheron being seen being built in Boston. Possibly my only quibble with the film.

>Well your link didn't support that.
Because it's the English link. Maybe they didn't have this tradition, which could explain the current state of their navy, and why they had sea monkeys in the past.

return of the king also came out that december. some decent movies came out that holiday season and from what I've read online master and commander was pretty poorly marketed.

I just meant that Jack Aubrey always had slowmatch. Flintlocks weren't very prevalent at the time, and he didn't trust them. He also scoffed at steam power.

I intend to. Check back in another 70 to 80 years for a progress update.

It could have been stated to have been a prize from the Quasi-War or whatever they called it at the time. It would have been historically inaccurate for French privateers to have taken a top of the line American frigate since they got stomped pretty hard, but more plausible than the French buying an American ship. I'm pretty sure they referenced it being built in Boston because they used the USS Constitution for reference shots and it wouldn't have been accurate as a French frigate design of the period.

I did not notice he had a firelock, will have to keep an eye out next time (I thought you were talking about cannon). Flintlocks were very common though, Britain had certainly been using them for a decade and a half by the time the film happened.
I don't know, I find naval supersition fascinating, particularly how the same thing could be regarded as a good and bad omen depending on the time period and origin of the sailors. The wiki page on it is fascinating. I also liked how he demonstrated how a poor-quality officer would behave.
Based. US navy is shite and gay.

I was talking about cannon. The RN did use them, but I thought I remembered reading that they didn't become widespread for a long while.
