indigi posted:in animation, you aren't getting the major part of the VA's acting if you can't understand the language so past a minimum threshold it doesn't matter how small or large the pool of actors is. comparing it to live action is really weird, not sure why you'd do that I cant believe I have to tell you this but performance can still come across just by how someone voices a character and the thing here is that the quality of acting in the Japanese VA community tends to be better than hastily made dubs. There are exceptions of course. Like any Miyazaki movie.

Fleetwood posted:browsing tubi I found an old movie called Suddenly starting Frank Sinatra as an assassin planning to kill the president. former irl OSS soldier Sterling Hayden is the sheriff trying to stop him. there's also a remake starring Ray Liotta and it's directed by Uwe Boll Wait how many movies starring Frank Sinatra had him trying to kill the Resident? Didn't he star in the Manchurian Candidate?

I respect people who either use dubs or learn the native language. Subs are for people who use the word verisimilitude incorrectly.

I get it as an impulse from an era when the choices were professional (native) voice actors or some dude an importer paid $20 to flatly read the lines over the video but nowadays there's a whole industry and professionals and it's just as good or even better but also subs are for people who use the word "keikaku"

Ok I finally finished considering Phlebas I felt like this book picked up when it decided to get around to its own plot (meaning, essentially, the second half of it), but I also thought the Schar's World part kind of dragged a bit by the end. The Idirans confuse me. Xoxarle is so fascist that he can't let people from an inferior race help him with his mission without continually trying to kill and sabotage them for essentially no reason. He's like a rabid dog. Conversely, Balveda, the Culture representative, is so anarchist that she ends up deciding she likes Horza and Yalson because she hung out with them for a while due to being captured and held prisoner. I find myself wondering if Banks was really an anarchist (nb: being a real anarchist would not be good) because even in a story about an ascendant perfect anarchist utopia he seems pretty aware of the flaws and limitations of anarchism. I'm glad I read this book because it provides some important context for other books in the series but I can still see why I was warned not to read it first because it's not really very much like them and doesn't scratch the same itch. Back to Discworld for me for now though. The worst chapter of the book (The Eaters) was immediately followed by the best one (A Game of Damage). Player of Games should have had a Damage chapter.

one of the best films of 2023 was entirely a cliche, bordering on corny, one of those movies where you know the beats its going to take, and how it will end as soon as you read the 2 sentence synopsis.
