Which proves you are just being an idiot and evading all discussion of the supposed qualities of Cowboy Bebop.A_Cynic wrote:I was basically pointing out your fallacy that you have seen everything.
Of course I haven't LITERALLY seen everything. But hey. If you pretend that is literally true and that it is the linchpin of my opinion against Cowboy Bebop then you might just have a winning argument. IN MORON LAND.
Can you read for dick already? I was discussing pacing in relation to the STORY, which I largely described as drudgingly slow with only MOMENTS of rapid psycho murder sprees. The Jazz is just SHIT MUSIC, I have no comments on the pacing of the musical rythm because all I have to say about it is that it was SHIT MUSIC.YOu said it was a psychotic pace but Bebop when it's set to a trumpet or horn and drums and going at 1-2-1-2-1-2-1-1 and that beat increasingly seems psychotic but it has rhythm and flow.
It seems less popular. Perhaps everyone learnt the same lesson I did from Cowboy Bebop and decided to avoid it.Samurai Champloo.
Yes. I do. Jazz is largely bad music. Like any Genre there are a few good bits. However Jazz is a lot like Modern Art. The people who are "into the scene" like the worst of it rather than the best of it, regarding the few good pieces as populist trash.Crissa wrote:Geez, PL. I didn't know you hated Jazz so much.
Those sorts of wanky attitudes are exactly what is adopted in Cowboy Bebop that I found especially offensive. The self declaration as a superior and unique art form when what they were doing was largely unoriginal and uninteresting.
Actually a mildly sensible defense rather than the irrelevant idiocy of Cynic.Virgileso wrote:As for why I like Cowboy Bebop...
Personally I disagree on basically every point. I found the setting dry and sterile, the fight scenes dull, the aesthetics ugly and angular, didn't even notice the plot scale one way or another and just plain disliked the genre and style of the stories told.
But all that is largely personal opinion so I'll give you all that as an agree to disagree thing no problem.
I'll even agree that the technical quality of the animation and dubbing was pretty good.
I'm just sad they wasted the skill on something I really didn't like. I blame the creator for being a Jazz wanker, everything else clearly stems from that.
