Wish more people realized this, and realized it’s a bipartisan practice too.

Didn’t think I would have to explain that.

You didn’t. You just repeated what the other guy said in different words, haha. I think he’s looking for a little more detail. It’s an 11yo console and we’re not all Nintendo historians.

^Boosting this as it’s the only non-anime suggestion atm.

I just watched this and thought it was decent. Directed by Hideaki Anno, known best for Neon Genesis Evangelion, and it’s pretty apparent. The montages of button down politicians and scientists working in sync, filing into perfectly symmetrical makeshift office spaces, and standing at attention like they’re military personnel felt very familiar. I saw a review afterwards that called it “The Dunkirk of Godzilla Movies” which I found hilariously accurate.

I’ll also throw in the very aged, but influential Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1989)

What else can you expect, when those site redesigns are usually driven by the desire for increased ad revenue. Even idiots who don’t know why, will know it somehow sucks more than it used to. Other times it’s just a blatant removal of loved features. Funny skit aside, the simpler explanation is enshittification.

Other movies after The Wind Rises were just Ghibli productions, but not Miyazaki directed.

Yeah, as with bands reuniting for another FINAL album, it sort of cheapens the finality of both productions for whatever that’s worth.

As a side note; I freaking LOVED The Wind Rises, more than most Ghibli fans it feels like. My father is a retired aircraft loadmaster so I’ve had a soft spot for aviation since I was a child, but being an absolute commie, liberal, beta-cuck, that appreciation was tempered over time with the reality of the military industrial complex. I felt targeted directly by that movie.

I have no idea what this is about, and I’m going to try to keep it that way until I get a chance to watch.

Excellent presentation, Chef. HANDS PLEASE, THANK YOU!
