Don't ask. It's depressing, to say the least - you're better off not knowing.LordTerminal said:Waitaminute, what did Bob mean when he said "You were expecting something else"? Was there something everyone was expecting him to talk about this week?
You know that's the beauty of it, if I want to play something stylistic and over the top I will choose Bayonetta, Viewtiful Joe or No More Heroes if I want to play something atmospheric and heavy I will go with Dishonored, Deus Ex or Bioshock. Variety is good, I don't want Japanese games to become westernized and vice versa. Then again embracing respective influences isn't such a bad option (FFT and VS come to mind).Worgen said:Sure we can do odd movies and games, but we still seem to lack the over the top insane awesome style that the Japanese seem to have mastered. For instance, you would never see something like The Wonderful 101 made at a western studio.Thunderous Cacophony said:What is Kick Ass, or Guardians of the Galaxy, or Mystery Men (to keep with the theme of funny superheroes). There are plenty of really odd movies in western cinema, they just aren't taken as representatives of every movie made here.Worgen said:Why can't western things just go balls out with style like this? Even our games can't manage it as well as the Japanese can.
OT: I could see this being used as the basis for a "Manga Are Weird" episode, or something about strange bits of Japanese cinema, but on it's own it just feels like Bob reciting a weird movie he saw without any reference to it's place in the big picture.
That's exactly what I thought; this looks like a great "drunk with friends" movielastjustice said:Looks like a good movie to watch and drink a bunch of alcohol with my friends to.
