i’m watching “zom 100: bucket list of the dead” the anime version. i just started episode 10 and imagine my shock when the episode opens with these japanese women putting dreads in akira’s hair (who is also japanese)!! this nigga really said “from now on call me captain dreadlocks.”

you wanna guess how quickly i exited out of that shit?? like i simply can’t. i was really liking this show too but that just threw me all the way off. this on top of the character design of kosugi (akira’s former boss). the fact that they gave the evil, abusive, manipulative and exploitative character very big features (nose, lips) didn’t escape me, especially bc he’s like the only one in the whole show with that phenotype. this show’s creators are obviously very anti-black so i think i’m done with it, which is unfortunate bc i really liked it, and i really liked kencho.

Matsuo Ohno (1930-2022)

Source: AF Plan (Twitter; AF_Plan_info), Forced Exposure

Matsuo Ohno, the sound designer for the 1960s Astro Boy anime and the 1964 Astro Boy movie Hero of Space, passed away on December 19, 2022 at 7:28 AM at the age of 92.

The website Forced Exposure gives a summary of Matsuo Ohno’s life growing up and his formative years:

Matsuo Ohno was responsible for the sound design of a broad range of film, television, and radio soundtracks, most famously the animation series Astro Boy which he began working on in 1963 together with his assistant, Takehisa Kosugi.

Ohno was born in the heavily-populated Kanda district of central Tokyo in 1930 and was heavily affected by the repeated bombing raids on the city enacted in World War II, which took place during his formative years. After the war, deeply motivated by philosophy and surrealism, he was largely unaffected by popular music [...].

Ohno began immersing himself in the realm of sound effects while working with the Bungaku-za modernist theatre troupe and he performed a similar function at NHK, Japan's national broadcasting corporation, but became so frustrated by the rigidity of the restrictions imposed on him there that he quit his prestigious post at the broadcaster, although his skills were such that he remained in high demand as a freelancer, which allowed him to refine his sound effects techniques with evolving analogue synthesizers.

Ohno worked on the sound effects in the 1960s Astro Boy anime, which includes Atom’s squeaky boots.

Ohno was active up until his death in 2022, even working on the sound design for the T0-B1 episode in Star Wars: Visions in 2021 which was heavily influenced by Astro Boy.

Takashi Shimura in Seven Samurai (Akira Kurosawa,1954)

Cast: Toshiro Mifune, Takashi Shimura, Yoshio Inaba, Daisuke Kato, Seigi Miyaguchi, Minoru Chiaki, Isao Kimura, Yoshio Tsuchiya, Bokuzen Hidari, Yukiko Shimazaki, Kamatari Fujiwara, Keiko Tsushima, Kokuten Kodo, Yoshio Kosugi. Shinpei Takagi, Eijiro Tono, Tatsuya Nakadai. Screenplay: Akira Kurosawa, Shinobu Hashimoto, Hideo Oguni. Cinematography: Asakazu Nakai. Production design: Takashi Matsuyama. Film editing: Akira Kurosawa. Music: Fumio Hayasaka. 

It's a truism that silent movies and talkies constitute two distinct artistic media, and to judge the one by the standards of the other is an error. But it's almost impossible to watch films made by older directors, especially those who came of age when silent films were being made, without noticing the efforts they make to tell their stories without speech. It's true of John Ford, Alfred Hitchcock, and Howard Hawks, even though they, especially Hawks, became masters of dialogue in their films. And it's true of Kurosawa, who although he didn't begin his career in films until 1936 and directed his first one in 1943, was born in 1910 and grew up with silent movies. I think it helped him learn the universals of storytelling that are independent of language, so that he became the most popular of all Japanese filmmakers. Others rank the work of Ozu or Mizoguchi more highly, but Kurosawa's films manage to transcend the limitations of subtitles more easily. Of none of his films is this more true than Seven Samurai, which is also generally regarded, even by those with reservations about Kurosawa's work, as his masterpiece. That's not a word I use lightly, but having sat enthralled through the uncut version, three hours and 27 minutes long, last night, I'm willing to endorse it. It's an exhilarating film, with none of the longueurs that epics -- I'm thinking of Gone With the Wind (Victor Fleming, 1939) and Lawrence of Arabia (David Lean, 1962) -- so easily fall into. I don't know of any action film with as many vividly drawn characters, and that's largely because Kurosawa takes the time to delineate each one. It's also a film about its milieu, 16th-century Japan, although as its American imitation, The Magnificent Seven (John Sturges, 1960), shows, there's a universality about the antagonism between fighters and farmers. Kurosawa captures this particularly well in the character of Kikuchiyo (Toshiro Mifune), the would-be samurai who reveals in mid-film that he was raised as a farmer and carried both a kind of self-hate for his class along with a hatred for the arrogant treatment of farmers by samurai. Mifune's show-off performance is terrific, but the film really belongs to Takashi Shimura, who radiates stillness and wisdom as Kambei Shimada, the leader of the seven. There are clichés to be found, such as the fated romance of the young samurai trainee Katsushiro (Isao Kimura) and the farmer's daughter Shino (Keiko Tsushima), but like the best clichés, they ring true. Seven Samurai earned two Oscar nominations, for Takashi Matsuyama's art direction and Kohei Ezaki's costumes, but won neither. Overlooking Kurosawa's direction, Shimura's performance, and Asakazu Nakai's cinematography is unforgivable, if exactly what one expects from the Academy.

[professor-tammi]

here are some thoughts on SW5 from me!!, your resident formerly-angry-now-quite-happy Samurai Warriors essayist:

- ok so first of all, this game is confirmed to be a full reboot, a little in the sense SW2 was, except... even more of a reboot? I guess? I'd say I'm concerned, and I am, a little bit, but I think this was the correct thing for Koei to do. the SW cast was getting too bloated and there were too many major characters -- especially from early games -- who were not particularly well-liked (eg Hideyoshi, Ieyasu). admittedly I think a big reason why is just their character designs not being pretty boy-ish enough, but, like, people are shallow. so. a reboot seems very fair ahahah

- Oda focus absolutely delights me bc I adore the Odas, as people may or may not know :D!!

- on the characters: Nobunaga is part of the reason why I am excited because, while my favorite SW character is Ran, my actual favorite sengoku warlord is Nobunaga and unless Koei fired all their good writers I have some faith that they will do him justice (I hate sengoku canons that just make Nobunaga straight-up evil YES im looking at u basara. stop)

- younger Nobunaga is something I've always wanted to see in SW so I am super intrigued and hope SW5 goes into why he becomes the sort of "Devil's advocate" Nobunaga we see in SW3+ (and SW5 Nobunaga looks rather similar to Pokemon Conquest Nobunaga, hmmmm). HOWEVER, him not being voiced by Juurouta Kosugi is a great tragedy. how will I ever adjust :c

- actually, given Sanadamaru, are we getting aging in this game!? there is a non-zero chance...! maybe!! or maybe not because prettyboys are much more marketable. WE'LL SEE.

- next, we have Mitsuhide, with the promise that the game will focus on the Nobunaga/Mitsuhide relationship. admittedly, this is not a relationship I am typically super into, but I by no means dislike it. they seem to be setting up a rivalry between them, also, which is pretty different from their typical SW relationship? unlike Nobunaga, Mitsuhide kept his voice actor, so I'd imagine he'll keep other traits of previous SW Mitsuhide, also? (at least I hope so, because SW Mitsu is good)

- box art also prominently features new Nouhime, who now wields bows!! I'm not going to lie I was never a huge fan of her claws + bombs moveset so I am rather liking this change :D there is a brief shot of her holding a knife, so I very much hope her whole "assassinate Nobunaga" subplot is still there!

- I do however get the impression that these 3 will be the game's "main trio" and I'm concerned that may mean no Ran at all ahaha... it's always been a bit difficult for Koei to find a place for him in the games' main stories so I wouldn't be shocked if he was cut entirely. tbh, if he has been cut, I'll be... a little heartbroken ofc, he's my favorite fictional character of all time, but I'd sooner have that than a new reincarnation of him I don't like

- (but ideally, give me a reincarnation of him I do still like, pls)

- girl with orange hair: is this Oichi? she's vaguely similar to SW1 Ichi, and she's wearing Oda colors... seems to have nothing in common with SW3+ Ichi, which makes me sad bc I love her :( e: have seen it suggested this may be Nene and given the ninja feel of her outfit that might make sense, save for, the Oda colors

- I would assume the boy shown briefly after the girl in the trailer is either new Keiji or new Toshiie! omg though I'm going to miss SW Toshiie if he's removed e: actually in hindsight it's gonna be Hideyoshi isn't it!?

- oh no I am going to miss everyone

Tomisaburo Wakayama in The Young Rebels (Keisuke Kinoshita, 1980) Cast: Go Kato, Tomisaburo Wakayama, Junko Mihara, Tatsuya Okamoto, Tomoko Saito. Screenplay: Keisuke Kinoshita. Cinematography: Masao Kosugi. The title of Keisuke Kinoshita's polemical pseudo-documentary, The Young Rebels, sounds like that of a Hollywood film from the 1950s, the era of naive, sensational, and didactic dramas about "juvenile delinquency." Which is exactly what The Young Rebels turns out to be: an exploitation film about why kids go wrong. The answer is a simple one: their parents. The kids, Kinoshita is saying, are not all right: They ride around on motorcycles, they cut school, they shoplift, and they have sex. This was not exactly news in 1980: Nagisa Oshima, for example, was onto these facts in 1960, when he made Cruel Story of Youth, and he blamed it on dysfunctional parenting in 1969's Boy. But Oshima's films are about people more than they are about problems. Kinoshita has lost sight of the people in his obsession with the problem, and the result is a scattershot film designed to ferret out examples of parental irresponsibility both high -- affluent parents who are so obsessed with climbing the corporate or social ladders that they either ignore their children or spoil them -- and low -- parents who are so mired in poverty and its attendant ills like alcoholism and crime that they abuse their children. The narrative framework of the film is as simplistic as its point of view: a journalist goes in search of answers and interviews children and parents. Kinoshita is enough of an artist that he knows how to tell the several stories uncovered by the journalist, which gives The Young Rebels enough dramatic substance to keep the polemic at bay during the storytelling, but the piling on of miseries turns into overkill. Eventually, the journalist visits a kind of reform school in Hokkaido, the north of Japan, where wayward boys are nurtured back into society -- but there's even some recidivism there. At the end, the point seems to be that every kid needs a loving mother and father -- the Japanese title translates as a cry for help: "Father! Mother!" It has been pointed out that people raised children for millennia until, sometime in the mid-20th century, they became self-conscious about it and turned it into a problem. Kinoshita's humorless and even hopeless polemic does little to solve the problem, especially when the film often seems bogged down in fogeyism: A scene of joyriding motorcycle gangs, for example, is treated as a vision from hell.

Fight everyone and trust no one: it’s the code of survival practiced by martial-arts master Casey Bowman after his life of domestic bliss is shattered by a savage act of violence. Vowing revenge, the fearless American stealthily tracks the killer from Osaka to Bangkok to Rangoon with the help of a wise and crafty sensei. His only clues: a series of victims whose necks bear the distinctive mark of strangulation by barbed wire. Fighting to avenge as well as to survive, Casey must sharpen his razor-like responses and take his battle skills to the next level, even using deep meditation to fake his own death. His target: the sinister drug lord Goro, who is flooding the streets with deadly meth cooked at his remote jungle factory. To prepare for his ultimate confrontation, Casey must finally become an invisible warrior worthy of the name Ninja. But just when his prey is cornered, an unexpected twist shows Casey that his battle is only beginning: he truly can trust no one. Credits: TheMovieDb.

Marino Music: Logan Mader Producer: Frank DeMartini Editor: Irit Raz Producer: Tom Waller Casting: Yumi Takada Director of Photography: Ross W. Clarkson Action Director: Tim Man Martial Arts Choreographer: Brahim Achabbakhe Movie Reviews: MovieGuys: Like a medium rare steak, with fries, coleslaw and an ice cold beer, Ninja Shadow of a Tear is simple but satisfying. This martial arts action flick is reminiscent of 80’s and 90’s martial arts films. Its not trying to be clever. Instead, its fast paced, entertaining and fun. Scott Atkins martial arts are top shelf and this flick gives him the opportunity to literally “let loose”. Indeed, the cast, which includes the son of a famous 80’s martial arts action star and extra’s, all appear to have above average martial arts skills. This lends this film polish and flair, that shows in the final product. Fight scenes that dominate this film, are crisply choreographed, a little inventive and fast paced. In summary, a great 80’s,90’s style martial arts action film, that’s entertaining from beginning to end. Keep em coming….!
