"Left-coded" puritanism is one of the worst things to ever happen to art. Now most art is either excessively safe/coddly or superficially transgressive but utterly vapid. I don't want fucking Stella Blade to be the only kind of place where eroticism and art can meet.
The thing is this isn't even done for any genuine well-intentioned reasons like trying to protect minorities or whatever, no one is being protected by trying to shut out all hints of sex from media.
I dunno I guess this is a "what is the material explanation for this?" type thread but mostly I'm just annoyed and I want this to be fixed, how do we do it

"Safe edgy"?
>I don't want fucking Stella Blade to be the only kind of place where eroticism and art can meet.
Part of the problem is that people think that sexuality or other adult things have to be puerile, juvenile, trashy, and pandering. Europe has been doing highly sexual art films since forever (this was one of the first things the nazis attacked btw). The very icons of "high art" in the western canon - the renaissaince - is loaded with sexuality (not just nudity).
>I dunno I guess this is a "what is the material explanation for this?" type thread
The confinement of adult themes to the realm of pornography and pseudo-pornography is part of a campaign to reduce art to mere entertainment. The ruling class is happy for art to make people soyface at a screen for a few hours. They are not happy for it to make the workers think about their conditions or imagine better conditions.
>but mostly I'm just annoyed and I want this to be fixed, how do we do it
Bring back counterculture, but instead of just being edgy to spite the puritans, make art that's eye-opening and edifying.

>>42427
all the specific problems you worry about are non problems. the materialist explanation is that you are living in a society where the dominant media-format is the internet and you are spending your time looking at places where people you regard as puritan congregate. you want eroticism and art to meet? go to furaffinity. go to a twitter circle full of chronic masturbators instead of one full of discourse-fiends. christ, go to leftypol.org and scroll down the overboard. really, that's all it is: find another circle of people. you are floating in an ocean of islands, have found an island that annoys you, and now you fear that every island is like this. well it isn't, there's an infinite number of islands. what should really be frightening you is not the specific social annoyances of one island or another, but the fact that you are trapped on a canoe in a world full of islands.

the scary thing for art is not that puritans may come in and ruin it - so what if they did? look to history, plenty of people have come along and tried to dictate how art ought to work, failed painters have killed over the topic, and yet we wound up here. no, the scary thing is that the very idea of an artistic canon or progression of history, as such, has taken a fatal wound: with no island to write the dominant history, who is to say what matters and what doesn't? we may track from greek statues to socialist realism without trouble, but what do you do in 2024? how much space do you devote to tumblr's red noses, to google's blob-people, to the development of furry art from 2005's goth-anime sparkledogs to today's proliferation of styles, most of which ruthlessly targeted at certain pornographic niches? i'll tell you how: you don't. you don't have the space. the canon is a vestige of the era of "linear" media, of books and TV. you are living in the age of hypermedia, so pick an island and set sail.

Just read through the Judge Dredd spinoff comic Fall of Deadworld, or at least what's available now. It's not a bad apocalypse adventure story, and the art is really good at being creepy and unsettling.



 

The On Cinema cinematic universe is a hilarious satirical cycle/storyline about 2 extremely egoistic faux movie lovers in an exurban Inland Empire town clashing with each other and the various hijinks and mediocre attempts at producing media that result in between
You can follow it here https://www.oncinematimeline.com
It's genuinely a very deep metatextual satire of a weird kind of zeitgeist in the YouTube era

I fucking cannot with Tim's characters anymore lol
He's blending together so many different people into one character, Bill Maher but also JP but also Steven Crowder maybe? It's surreal, like one of those DJs that plays with 4 decks at once.

I watched the first three seasons recently, it's funny and laudably captures a very common Type of Guy, but not gonna lie I kinda feel like I don't need to watch any more, I feel like they're running out of ideas already. Do they shake things up in any way later?

>>42355
I guess if you like Tim and Eric Awesome Show humor and are invested in the character arcs enough, then you can keep watching
I like seeing their warped takes on movies that I've watched sometimes

I love how the "After The Episode" column has presumably been broken by Elon Musk's fuck-up of Twitter. It's an amazing new dimension to the whole thing.

when certain adaptations transform super villains or other extraordinary characters into characters that could have come out with the world of a police procedurals or genetic action movie such as regular criminals, mobsters, vague ideological terrorists and serial killers, It happened in the early seasons of Gotham, Arrow and Agents of SHIELD
in Gotham there was a character called Balloon Man, whose comic counterpart is a metahuman with balloon powers but in the show was portrayed as a terrorist who targeted corrupt politicians by strapping them to weather balloons, the Electrocutioner who had electirc was just a sadistic doctor who just electroshocked people and the supervillain dollmaker who had the power to control dolls is a child trafficking organ harvester who also performs surgical experiments on them

There are other examples, but I've made my point. On some level I understand where it's coming from. You don't trust audiences to take outlandish comic book stuff seriously, so you try to make it more "grounded" but the end result is just a character that could have come out of any other police procedural or action movie, just with a weird nickname

So these characters in question are a group called the Watchdogs, who were an explicit neo-fascist organisation that wants to return America to the golden age. They are fought by John Walker (the new government appointed Captain America) and Lemar Hoskins(the new bucky). Now the thing is both of these guys are conservatives as well and they do agree with some of their values bur don't condone what their doing. Ultimately the arc is more about John and Lemar having to re-examine their own political values and what they can cause. In the show they are presented as a right-wing militia who are bigoted towards aliens and meta-humans. Now the show wants us to consider these guys wrong, but it really fails to do so. This is because in the show's universe aliens invaded and killed millions of people and the first arc of the season was about an alien virus that was driving people insane. Given these circumstances, they were completely reasonable to be "bgotted" towards meta-humans and aliens.

>>42283
It's primarily this. It's why Mad Hatter has gone from a crazy guy who puts mind control cards into people's hats to make them commit Wonderland themed crimes to a child trafficker who specializes in prepping little blonde girls into sex slaves.

What we really need to talk about is the Nolanification of pornography.

How about they stop giving these movie gargantuan budgets instead? Old TV shows don't need to have fucking Blockbuster budgets per goddamn episode. People will absolutely be fine with a character-driven Hank Pym prequel series with very modest sets, some simple looking shrinking effects, and only the occasional fight scene that can be done cheaper if it's done PRACTICALLY and not with a thousand things happening all at once.



 

Are y'all going to see it? Will it be a "gays killed the roman empire" movie? Will it be a insightful take on the current US? Is it burgerpunk?

I think it's funny this guy and Woody Allen have been making a movie a year for the last half century, yet you only hear about one every 10 years.

>>42277
Ok I looked it up, I guess he has periods where he makes a movie a year, then he does take 10 years off.

If I wanted to watch the cinema equivalent of lemonparty I'd just watch The Irishman again.

Actually one of two movies I am impatiently waiting for cinematic release of. Everything I heard about it seems great, including the criticisims.

Same. Coppola is at his best making grandiose messes.



 

:Broadsword Edition:

>What is HEMA or WMA?

Historical European Martial Arts or sometimes Western Martial Arts are attempts at decoding, studying, and practicing the history, art, and fighting of everything from the Medieval Period to Early Modern Combatives.

What traditions are you lot studying at the moment?

Me? Going through George Silver's "Paradoxes of Defence" to expand my regimental broadsword/sabre repertoire.

It'd probably harder to manipulate quickly and skillfully than it looks. But theoretically yes.

This is the capeshit film thread
Discuss capeshit
I'll admit I hate Marvel films, first off they're some of the glowies films out there, every single one fellates the Pentagon. The plots are almost all identical, filled with general pro-porky propaganda. The jokes are overdone and stale, literally Adam Sandler humor. The CIA is shit for such expensive productions. The characters are getting stale. Fuck these movies, death of cinema shit piles.

Super is weirdly apocryphal the main character is literally a chinletjak. Its the most realisitic super hero movie imho since its just a schizo christofascist who doles out unnecessary violence on lumpenproles until the end where they face off with actual organized criminals and sidekick literally gets there head blowed off. I didn't like the ending at all and thought it was a forced happy ending. Its a weird ass movie but viewing as a satire on /pol/yp LARPers is pretty funny

RIP Rogue's Ass

Funniest part is that most of the men are still muscular.

Also inb4 "Muh mutants and Rogue were meant to represent the gay struggle"
Stan Lee literally created the idea of Mutants because he was tired of creating hundreds of backstories for the superpowers his characters had, so it was just "the X-Gene" and it let him create characters more freely… that's it, that was the entire motivation behind the X-Men. And the idea of alienation and wanting to be accepted by society is a universal concept among all people. The flamboyant designs are also just because it was cool, and literally applies to most superheroes in DC and Marvel that have no relation to the X-Men. If gay people identified with it, then good for them, but it wasn't intended to be specific to any one person or group, and people trying to say that are projecting their own political views onto illustrated power-fantasies for children and teens.

IMO Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes is probably the best version of the Avengers. Venxous has a good video series on the individual characters and generally its pretty well made for a capeshit cartoon series.

Also the intro theme slaps.
