Kind of a psychological take on "Star Wars inspired by Kirosawa & Flash Gordon is better than Star Wars inspired by Star Wars." There's a beauty in the inability to replicate the same dopamine hit because it forces you to branch out, create a sort of ecosystem of compatible passions.

Watching Yojimbo and then fistful of dollars...

Knowing what I know about sake, it is hilarious Kirosawa went with impossibly large Taru / Barrels for the scene where they let all the fermenting sake out.

Nothing of that size exists but it is all the better for the film. His sets were stellar 👍

Kiyoshi Kirosawa happens to be my second favorite filmmaker named Kurosawa. Can you guess my first favorite?

Always worth mentioning that Lucas created Star Wars b/c they wouldn't let him make a Flash Gordon movie. So he took what he liked about Flash, threw in some Kirosawa, John Ford, and Errol Flynn.

We'd be much better off if someone applied the same method to Star Wars than just made a new Star War.

é um exercício de auto tortura interessante, vc se sente culpado por não ter assistido àqueles filmes e se obriga a vê-los o quanto antes, tudo isso enquanto não admite pra ninguém que vc nunca assistiu a coisas como Encouraçado Poutekim ou a filmografia completa do Kirosawa

Kirosawa is an acquired taste.
Yojimbo

Is the basis of "for a few dollars more", the Clint Eastwood movie.

DamBusters is a part of Britain's WWII mythology of plucky innovation. They Innovatived a completely new kind of low-level bombing and... never used it again.

The movie is worth a watch.

I feel like this could use a lot more Kiyoshi Kirosawa and s lot less Ben Wheatley.

It's a genuine look at violence in ways other action movies fail bc even depicting gore or brutality they lean towards glorification or spectacle. Kirosawa nailed a brutal realistic vibe where violence is anxiety inducing over exciting

Literally the first two influences mentioned by the people making Star Wars in the DVD special features I watched as a kid! Like, that's how I first heard of Kirosawa
