Hello guys!!! I’m gonna try to be at least a bit more active on here, but I’m more active on Twitter nowadays!!! Here is my carrd if you want my info!!!
Just saw someone on Twitter complain about the lack of Japanese people in Oppenheimer, and what did you expect??? Did you want the final act to be the bomb dropping and see people burning alive???
The reason why we don't see a Japanese perspective is because one, including a Japanese perspective, just to see how bad the suffering was would be exploitation. Two, to see an accurate and sensitive take on how the japanese felt about Oppenheimer, Christopher Nolan (as incredible as he is) isn't the right person to do this. And three, it's based on Oppenheimer's biography
Oppenheimer, the movie, literally shows you white people doing something evil and just incredible inhumane because they removed themselves away, both emotionally and physically, from the people they are hurting. Nagasaki and Hiroshima only exist in those men's distant thoughts and imaginations. One guy literally asks to take a city off the bombing because that's where he had his honeymoon. It's disturbing and unsettling, as if those people were not real human beings. The lack of Japanese people drives the entire point home.
Also, Japanese cinema is right there. Barefoot Gen, Grave of the Fireflies, or Hiroshima (responsible for showing to many Americans the effects of the bombs for the first time) are just a few of the many, many decades of post-war Japanese movies we have
I live in a duplex above my parents. Every single time I feed my own cat, my parent's cat magically appears at my door and mews pitifully. I just can't handle it. She's like some kind of little dickensian urchin looking longingly into a bakery window, hoping the baker will take pity on her and throw her a few crumbs.

Love that one scene in Return Of The King that's like "bad news, sauron knows everything pippin knows. good news, pippin knows absolutely fuck all."

non sexual nudity is fantastic and should not be treated like evil incarnate because it’s a basic part of human existence but don’t forget that sexual nudity is also rad as hell
just like me fr
Fun fact! I'm friends with the person this happened to and am going to shamelessly use this post to help them promo an upcoming seminar! <3
