They also just renamed him to Rupin or Rupan in a bunch of stuff, though I can't think of what specific things had that change.

If I recall, the justification for GotF and Totoro being released as a double feature was that the audience was gonna need something happy after Grave of the Fireflies, but this might be apocryphal.

For a Few Dollars More is my favorite of the trilogy, honestly.

Burkion posted:Oh God people who know our content we need to run away! jivjov posted:Oh. Oh poo poo. People remember us! We had/have FANS! It was a great podcast, y'all can chill! I grew up with the original MMPR and slowly lost interest as I got older, so looking back on the old stuff and seeing where it went was inherently really interesting to me, and y'all were entertaining to listen to on top of that.

Generally the "why" with podcasts is "because we can and we're bored"

Ikiru is probably my second-favorite Kurosawa, and we won't hit my favorite until very close to the end. Excited for this one.

jivjov posted:It was one of the most beautiful things ever put to film. Man, you practically don't even need to write a review, because this just about sums Ran up. e: not that I don't want to hear your thoughts in more detail, ofc, just that that's pretty much a completely correct opinion

Random Stranger posted:Rhapsody in August, however, is pretty much an ode to conservative Japanese politics. It is one of those things that you have to know a bit about the politics to get that aspect of the film, though, so a casual viewer might only walk away with a ham handed anti-nuclear message. Can you expand on this any? My assumption when I hear "conservative Japanese politics" is "apologia for Imperial Japan," and holy gently caress do I not have time for that.

Random Stranger posted:(We're talking about Rhapsody in August here.) Yeah, I wasn't meaning to start a big debate until we get there (if even then), just curious on whether I was taking the right assumption away from what you said, since that movie's one of my Kurosawa blind spots.
