Filming it as a cartoon was an unnecessary gimmick. Using real actors would have sufficed for a drama. Kon ruined his own film.
Perfect Blue
But it would have been full of niggers and trannies
Anime is supposed to portray fantastic ideas that could not possibly be conveyed by live action/cgi. Urotsukidoji is peak anime. Perfect Blue is soulless redditbait.
Sure thing, Darren. Whatever you say.
Darren Aronofsky fucking ripped off this anime. No shame. No shame at all.
No it wouldn't. It would be just another generic shitty 2000s blue filter thriller. As it is it's an anime version of a giallo film
No, animation is supposed to portray whatever the fuck you want without going through the trouble of making it real, no one cares about your hentai OVAs
"filming it as a cartoon" are you 8?
>nip """acting"""
no thanks
I'm a huge advocate of rotoscoping.. japanime is for faggots.
The west doesn't treat animation as a serious medium and only makes shitty adult cartoons with ugly humor and outdated pop cultural references
yes. at what age does the race card become and effective argument? 20?
PB>>>BS
Theres more than just adult cartoons numb nuts... The quality of the kid stuff is pretty kino too... you have a small range of reference and possibly an even smaller mental capacity to appreciate art no matter where it comes from. Essentially a retard...
>rotoscoping
Purely experimental and frankly dated techquine
Look at all of the effort live action films go through to mimic a fraction of Kon's power. Just look at Inception and how the visual style doesn't even compare to any of Kon's films, not even remotely. Thank fuck this was animated.
>The quality of the kid stuff is pretty kino too...
That's what I'm saying. They think animation is just simplistic shit for children
>The quality of the kid stuff is pretty kino too
This, people should watch more regular cartoons, the biggest names in western animation worked on shows aimed mostly at kids
Kon was an animator and only had experience working with animation. Why would he go into something he had no experience with and would probably turned out way worse if he did do it that way?
>gimmick
user, it was supposed to be a live action film from the start. the film budget was cut so they animated it instead.
Tell me about Perfect Blue, why is that the title of the film?
To specify, when the original author was pitching it he wanted it to be live action but couldn't get the funding. Kon was never involved at the stage before it was set to be an anime
>japanese acting
Worse then anime. Animating it was probably the best decision
The budget was reduced significantly, so it was animated instead of live action. So instead of a kind of generic live aciton film that likely wouldn't be memorable, they got an anime classic.
And you still bitch and moan.
There's things you can only do in cartoons.
>Worse then anime. Animating it was probably the best decision
Yeah, I'm just picturing this low budget action movie with live action acting and at best I can see it as forgettable. At least 10x the amount of people saw Perfect Blue because it's animated than as a forgettable film.
That's the worst fucking take I've ever heard. Kys
No Idea and I watched the film.
Star Trek
Also don’t know and I watched it. Probably the name the drama the actress was in.
japonees man thought it sounded cool
How would they film the rape scene in todays pussifiedvsnowflakevaudience?
>no one cares about your hentai OVAs
Urotsukidoji is a cultural milestone. The innovations it made are in everyone's mind for the past 15 years.
It's 'Perfect Blue' that no one remembers or cares about. No one.
its the name of the LSD thats destroying the world
The professional animator guy should have made a live action movie instead
>the fake Mima hopping from light post to light post
>Rumi visually shifting between her true self and the Mima persona
>the second to second scene shifts during Mima’s mental breakdown
How the fuck would any of these look better or even work in live action?
Perfect Blue and Akira are the only adult anime anyone knows about you retard. Nobody knows what the hell Urotsukidoji is that isn't a neckbeard loser.
shut the fuck up, they’re nothing alike and I wonder if you’ve actually seen Black Swan to make a comment like this
>they’re nothing alike
Give it a rest, Darren. You thread fucking sucks.
Most of his directing experience had been on anime.
Working in that medium is too different from live action there's not a chance he would've been able to deliver the same result.
Also he just does some stuff that wouldn't work well in live action. There's probably more to it I'm not thinking of.
HOLY SHIT EVERY SINGLE FUCKING POSTER IN THIS THREAD IS A NEWFAGGOT
Yea Forums IS FUCKING DEAD. PRESS S TO SPIT ON GRAVE
i tend to think the opposite. every single thing that was originally animated that gets a live action version is made inferior, leading me to believe that there's many films that would be better if they were animated.
Imagine being proud that you are still on this shithole site since the 2000s..........
This is the most retarded take i've ever read
suggestions?
Imagine being proud of just recently getting into fucking 4channel
you know if you fucking losers spent as much time on literally anything else in your life as you do obsessing about trannies, saving 100s of photos of trannies on your computer, making threads about trannies, drawing tranny memes, checking tranny social media and tranny news, you'd probably be a successful and confident man in your day to day.
I've actually found a healthy and satisfying tranny-life balance that successfully pairs sharing my contempt for trannies on the internet with a comfortable 6 figure 40 hour work week tech job.
The jigs up newfags op is an oldfag copypasta from 2019
They never could've made it if they hadn't made it as an anime. The surreal nature just never would've worked in film. See the GITS live action for reference.
Perfect Blue's sex scene is better than anything in Urotsukidoji
don't give the nigger lovers and mutilators any ideas.
Have you seen japanese acting?
in what way are they alike besides a basic plotline of "cute girl goes insane"?
Seems like you are just too dumb to notice, but if you really want to know, you can find several Youtube videos about this, including scene-to-scene comparisons on everything he ripped off.
But explaining things to retards like yourself is a lost cause, because for some reason you can't see past the medium of animation. Your brain just stops functioning right there.
Japanese people are ugly
found the nigger
Probably because Blue is the color of depression or something?
Aronofsky actually had to buy the rights to Perfect Blue.
Anime is about telling good stories with out-of-this-world aesthetics. Perfect blue would have been a mediocre thriller movie if it was filmed with IRL actors. The anime aesthetics elevates it and turns it into a work of art. Too bad the modern anime industry has forgotten this mantra and pushes out pure weebshit
American Dad and Frisky Dingo are better than every anime
>Youtube videos
and you're calling someone else retarded when you need people to spoonfeed you their bias? can you not critically think for yourself? I love Perfect Blue, but Black Swan is completely different thematically. post your actual own thoughts on why its such a ripoff or shut the fuck up you idiot.
>completely different
Like I suspected, you are just a retard. If objective facts won't persuade you, nothing will.
>cultural milestone
not even the biggest anime nerd loser thinks that
go outside, have sex etc.
The film was ruined when the plot twist was that every character was mentally ill.
big milestone day bros
>midwit youtuber who couldn't make it as a real critic
>""objective facts""
cope harder, the fact you aren't even actually posting anything about the movie is very telling.
