Casshern movie (2004)

[AquaParade]

Hey guys, I rented this last night, and as usual, wanted to come to my most trusted internet community to see what you guys thought of it before I pop it in I've heard it was actually based off an old anime of the same name, but I guess that's beside the point. What do you guys think of this movie?

[Brodie]

Its really good.....but odd to start a thread about it 4 years after its release. Usually people wait til a new version is released, or an anniversary of some sort....

Just saying.

But yeah, I totally dug it. Also, the Speed Racer helmet was neat.

I've seen it three times, and I still don't have a clue what it's about. Nice action though.

Casshern is badass as hell. Really complicated, though. I kinda wanna watch it now.

[Spitfire]

You watched it three times and couldn't figure out the point of the movie? Wow.

I think this thread was started because it just came out on DVD in the US recently. On Oct 16 actually. It's a directors cut I guess I didn't get it because I have the Thailand release.

There was nothing to 'figure out'. Convoluted does not equal poignant. Your shtick has gotten tiresome, so do me a favor and keep your condescending bullsh*t to yourself.

[Spitfire]

I'm sorry flashy fight scenes don't distract me from paying attention to a movies plot. The point is pretty simple, it's an anti-war movie *gasp*

[Mecha Cow]

Gasp indeed. I don't care to argue about your stupid f*cking art film, because I seriously don't give a damn about whatever point you may think it has. You need to stop acting like an elitist prick whenever someone doesn't share your pre-generated bullsh*t opinions, and that's the bottom line.

[Spitfire]

You need to be more open to others opinions and stop assuming everything someone says to you is an insult. You call me an "elitist prick" because I have an opinion that has some thought put behind it.

I really don't discuss movies on here often anymore and this is exactly why. I live with someone who I can have an intelligent conversation with about films and I'm surrounded by film students who understand my points of why films are good or bad.

I don't know why I ever came here to discuss films, could be because I had no where else to. I also used to go to Rotten Tomatoes but that place is worse then here. RT is a bunch of 12 year olds who hate anything with thought behind it and love anything with more CGI then substance. Here is a little better as most people are adults but I won't even get into it.

But...you did...insult him? It wasn't obvious, but it was there. You basically said "You're dumb and I hope you die for not getting the movie".

Of course, I'm embellishing a bit for dramatic and comedic effect, but you get the point.

You say you don't even talk about movies here anymore, and yet you come in here and straight up call Mecha Cow and idiot for not getting the point of a movie? Do you really have that much free time? Just leave this section and never come back. I'm really tired of reading your posts, because they only raise my hatred for close-minded people like you in exponentials.

[Spitfire]

I was more or so posing a question. The "wow" at the end is a bit insulting but I certainly see no need for him to fly off the handle on me like that. Could be me but I'm not the only member it happens to on here so I assume it's just some members here are way to wound up and need to take a chill pill.

I would hardly wish death on someone who doesn't understand a movie as you said, but if I could help them understand it better they might like it more.

What I like about films like this is their open for interpretation. It;s an anti-war film yes but what happens is left up for you to decide in a sense. The person who made it didn't explain everything, and for a reason. I like that in films. Being handed everything in my opinion is boring.

He didn't say anything negative about the film I know I just felt like commenting on that.

If the fact I'm almost never on anymore isn't a big enough hint that I don't have much free time I'm not sure what is. I'll leave the section if I please. I hardly called him an idiot but you and the rest of your party pals like to interpret everything in the worst way possible and blow everything out of proportion. I'm not the only one you do it.

Here's a simple answer, you don't like what I post, add me to your ignore list.

I heard a lot about this movie, then I watched it and it was terrible. Waste of time.

So you mean to tell me that 'you watched it three times and still didn't get it hur hur hur wow' wasn't you being a prick? Since when do you ever put thought behind your opinions, anyway? A hive mind isn't thought, you tool. You base your 'opinions' on whatever is or isn't popular and then give people sh*t when they're not as 'educated' as you clearly are. You honestly don't see how hating anything with 'substance' is any different from hating anything that's 'dumb'?

How about you take responsibility for your crap for just once instead of trying to spin everything on someone or something else and hiding behind how 'no-one understands you'? Grow the f*ck up.

Don't even reply to this. I'm sick of your sh*t.

So...when are you leaving for good? Let me know so I can start planning the party. Gotta reserve the donkey show in advance, you know.
