that made me feel real sad, even though gave me a sense of acomplishment, by them ending the conflict in the farmer's stead

In my subtitle, it was the PEASANTS won, not farmers xD

"The Victory belongs to those peasants, not to us."

@@Dravianpn02 Exactly :)

@@eramires using the word farmers versus peasants, changes one of the many themes of class and poverty in the film. By adding farmers, it doesnt separate the samurai and farmers. But adding peasants, does because its the lowest class winning their own battle by coming together over the upper class. Means more that way instead of just farmers and Kurosawa wouldve seen that. Normally I wouldn't have cared about the misquote because it happens. But this is my all time favorite film and the exposition is intentionally placed and worded for a reason, like , the framing and character positioning in Harakiri by Kobayshi. Class themes.

hi, how are you doing ma'am?

What ranks in your top 5?

Seven Samurai, a B&W film made with a shoestring budget is an epic adventure movie that can rival Lord of the Rings (700 million dollar budget) !!!

Magnificent Seven (the original film with Yule Bryner & Steve McQueen) was pretty good, too.

@@MWRJET hell yeah!

yes. the movies alone is in the back of my mind forever.. especially the theme goes with it.

@@riquestrong9496 you must be fun at parties

Hoosler ??? U have no idea lol

That scene is unreal. You are not alone, I promise.

(SPOILER) Plus how he sacrificed his own life for the villagers without hesitation, he really saw himself in their shoes and risked it all for them

That scene hit hard

That scene hit hard

Also Katsushiro when he’s desperately asking “Where are the bandits? Where are the bandits?” And then Kambei yells at him “They’re all dead!” And then that howl that Katsushiro lets out as he sinks to his knees. It’s heart rending.

Watched it just now. Couldn't believe how badass the shots were, and the ending was flawless.

About to watch in a few hours, I’ll comment when I watched it

Forgot to comment but great movie

@@GreenDragon1234 ikr? I watched it at the same time (+-) u did and it's so fucking genious (in all posible ways, from misuc to the message)

@Razh 80 Hell yes Agreed!

And thematic depth that makes it an "art-house" classic (though I usually don't like those labels).

And pure artistry

I have seen his illustration works. They were colored scenes from the movie. He was a painter.

shut up bro

Felt like 4

Thought the same thing. Some modern movies bore me, even if they have explosions every 10minutes. I'm not used to watch old movies so i was pretty surprised how much tension seven samurai caused o.O

i know im in the extreme minority when i say I didn't like the movie and that it felt really long.

@@harryhaller9670 That's not all modern movies. shut up lol

I think that's probably the best way to approach any movie. The hell with what others say. Watch 15 minutes and see if it hooks you. I first stumbled across SS way back in the dark ages on a B&W TV while getting ready for bed on a Sunday night, and I was just knocked out. I was a HS freshman or something and I was still entranced. Can't count the times I've seen it since.

@@greggrobinson5116 I think I would be missing out on many great films if I just waited 15 minutes to see if they hook me. Specially when the subject is slow-paced, contemplative dramas, which can be an acquired taste. To be clear, I'm not saying that anyone should force themselves to watch a whole film if they truly are not feeling it at that moment. Often it's better to try another day with a different, patient mood.

he meant comic book movie

we're talking about movies.... that's certainty enough

Echoingdolphin but comics are not superheroes, but a media and they made superheroes famous in comics. Plus the guy should write superhero movies not comics because it doesn't make sense in context.

GabeFromKyushu nice contradiction there

GabeFromKyushu I spoke with him and he said he meant comic books. So yeah he's wrong.

Yes! And an eerie facial resemblance to Bill Wyman, the Rolling Stones' original bassist. Calmly sinister.

Why so serious bro? Hahaha i like Kikushio and his crazy style!

He was so cool. From his duel introduction to calmly disappearing into the brush to return the next morning with a rifle, then he just lays down for a nap. Incredible character.

@@z5jahn I loved how he actually had emotion too when the younger Samurai gushed about him lol so many modern shows would have taken an "I'm so cool" approach instead.

@@Mr___f “you are an amazing person!”

Don’t forget No Clint Eastwood either

and without seven samurai, no john wick.

@@Roarrior. and john woo!

Ben Wasserman my top 3 are Pulp Fiction, Terminator 2, and Fight Club

Ben Wasserman he doesn't like it, so it'll be interesting to hear his view

Ben Wasserman Mine are GoodFellas, the Shawshank Redemption, and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

I'll never understand T2 over Terminator, but it's a damn good flick as well

The_Jackal Chris Stuckmann doesnt like 2001? Why?

Christopher Gomez Nice

It’s flawless IMO.

But wow, interesting.

Haruo Nakajima's dedication at the Oscars was the biggest plot twist of my life and I loved it

Thanks for the interesting info!

I bet you'd really enjoy Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat if you haven't seen it already.

12ealDeal I have not but I'll definitely seek it out. I saw Psycho and Rear Window and enjoyed them both.

It's got a similar setup and theme, just with the master's own methods at work.

Jan Strydom and also Vertigo

Jan Strydom and north by northwest

did the person die or something?

theFilmCritic No, the guys who ran the channel moved on for their other endeavors.

René Jiménez yeah its brilliant, its probably one of the videos that sparked my intrest in understanding the details of film making. 😊

shame they don't create any new content :(

Pablo Hernández And the freaking Germans. Most of them haven't seen a non-dubbed film their entire lives, ever. Because everything gets dubbed before it's being released.

That is not true. YES, almost every movie here gets dubbed. However many people as well watch the original movies because they prefer that. Cinemas often will show both versions at different times. - For me however it depends on the movie/ series. With some the German voice actually fits the character better (due to being deeper for example) and so in those cases imho might be actually be preferrable to the original. It is to be noted as well, that German dubbing is very good. It is done by professional voice actors, a different person is picked for each role in a movie, and the studios make sure to Lip sync very well. So it really is more like the (better cases) of voice acting in triple A games, less like the bad dubbing of older movies into eastern european or asian languages, where usaully only one man and one woman speak all roles.

Pablo Hernández Here in Brazil, every movie is dubbed and few cinemas show movies With subtitles. Among more hardcore cinephiles here, there is a huge prejudice against subtitles, but the general, casual public, generally hates subtitles.

Well, that's wrong, for example, here in Brazil just a few amount of people watch english language movies withput subtitles, even who knows english here(also, less than half of the population) watch them with subtitles, and most of people here prefer dubbed movies. And also, in Catalunya, Spain they only start tostudy english language when they are eleven.

I always thought France was the worst with dubbing. Whenever I'm there I can't find anything on TV without French dubbing. Here in The Netherlands we just put subtitles on everything which I am very happy about.

He does one pre-70s movie review every month this year. He reviewed "12 Angry Men" back in January and "The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly" in Feburary.

Teresa Rod Chris started with 12 Angry Men in January

haha, seven samurai is my all time favorite film and have already watched it about 20 times

@@anjelomichelangelo7726 in a span of ?

@@sameerhafeez7029 yes. sometimes I start from middle to look at any specific scene, and I cant stop watching until the end. then I start from beginning till middle. :D

@@anjelomichelangelo7726 how many months did it you to watch it 20 times?

@@sameerhafeez7029 first I watched this film about 6 years ago, then I watched it second day :D :D . sometimes 2 times in month. 6 year is enough time to rewatch film 20 times. I am filmmaker myself, so I learning something new in every watch.

well... I mean you've grown up watching movies with subtitles so its natural for you. We've grown up not watching movies with subtitles (most of us anyway) so it feels unnatural. seems like a pretty easy concept to understand...

Americans will complain about anything when they have to step outside their comfort zone

eh thats a trait you can attach to the majority of the world

Nick Of All Trades Europeans love to hate on Americans, don't bother with them

damn euro trash. jk pretty much all of europe is phenomenal except the netherlands. that place is shit

Zombitious He's only reviewing films pre 1970

Zombitious Mulholland Drive is so good I love it💖

or Lost Highway

The Elephant man

Would've been fun to see something like that alongside TP last year

The dubbing of Goblin Slayer is pretty good...also Gunsmith Cats...though I know that there are some horrid dubs out there.

@@darekbaird Like Bible Black.

@@xavierfranco5800 like as in good or bad?

The dubbed versions are laughable. But also - the subtitled versions are not all great. The older versions use a more archaic vernacular (eg: calling the bandits "brigands") and are not enjoyable to read, as they come off as not getting the point across properly in their translations. The newer translations are better in retaining our investment in the dialogue and themes.

See I'm one of those normal people that prefers my foreign movies subbed and my anime dubbed.

Great Film Matheus.

David Lean, Howard Hawks, John Ford & Akira Kurosawa. 4 men who truly understand scope.

Yes, 8 1/2!!!

PixelRelatedismyname I wouldn't put it in my top 25 of all time but for pre 70s it's in my top 10.

Car Stuff if it's not in your all time 25 but it's in the pre 70s top 10 maybe watch more pre 70s films

Tais M I don't understand why having bicycle thieves in my top 10 pre 70s and not in my all time warrants that fact that I don't watch pre 70s movies, but post 70's I do prefer just for the 1970s with films like Stalker, the mirror, the conversation. But all film is subjective, that's why bicycle thieves is in my top 10 of pre 70s and the seventh seal isn't where for some it'd be opposite.

And...

I got to see it in 35mm once. It was a privilege.

I saw this in 35mm with a packed crowd, people gave it an ovation at the end.

@@Hannibal082 it was absolutely brilliant of course.

@@ellisfilms5821 Glad you enjoyed it😊😊🤗

Bergman was a fucking master.

Persona is also a masterpiece. Scenes from a marriage is also one of his most under appreciated even though it was 1973 and is illegible for this series.

Cries and Whispers yo!

2001: A space odyssey is my all-time favorite film. But The Seventh Seal is also my all-time favorite film.

Cries and Whispers

I spent summer 2018 doing that 😋.

Incredible game!

Great game

Such a beautiful game, I love it. I'm lost in the world of Tsushima

- You have no honor! - And you are slave to it!

It's so inspired on Kurosawa, it's crazy beautiful.

That is if you're into films. Chances are, if you're watching this review, you already are into films. I wish comic book and pop culture fans would get into older films.

Rothur The Paladin YASSS!! Mifune is the BAWSSS!!

Rothur The Paladin Classic

watch Ran and High and Low

Throne of Blood, followed by Ikiru.

Karen Ingram because it IS important!!!

Justin Peterson Ran was amazing. A true masterpiece.

Justin Peterson Throne of Blood is also pretty amazing

My favourite too.

My ranking of his films.. 1. Ikiru 2. Seven Samurai 3. Rashömon 4. Ran 5. Yojimbo 6. High and Low 7. Throne of Blood 8. Sanjuro 9. The Hidden Fortress 10. Red Beard 11. Dersu Uzala

Ran was one of Kurosawa's few films in color and the fact that it was in color made a big difference for me.

AND FANTASTIC MR. FOX

ZachAttackPro - minecraft videos its great saw it today!

"Have you heard the rumor?"

Crew Channel What rumor?

I say one per week

Greippi10 They did make a recent Hollywood remake - The Magnificent Seven.

Hah I had no idea. Looks very... average.

They did remake it - as an anime, 'Samurai 7'. And of course, there is the Magnificent Seven franchise...

The Magnificent Seven is a good movie. Even Kurosawa liked it.

1997residente now thats some good info cheers

Yeah. A lot of the 1 on 1 Jedi fights play out like Samurai duels. Attacks tend to be slower, but more calculated. Well, until the prequels.

1997residente well their many homages in star wars like westerns, Lawrence of Arabia, WWII flicks, serial science fiction movies, etc.

Compare the Samurai armor, especially the masks with Darth Vaders. Yes, we have to thank Japanese history and cinema for one of the greatest movie villains of all time.

Jar Jar was based on Kikuchiyo.

Jw Nj Very true

Toshiro shows more explosive emotion the Eastwood is able to emote.

One my favorite Clint movies is Escape From Alcatraz, for a prison movie it sure has a creepy dark soundtrack and dark atmosphere.

John Hillman True that. The man learned Spanish and wore brownface to play Animas Trujillo, an indigenous man from Mexico in the mexican film titled after his character

I mean obviously Sergio Leone used Eastwood to copy some of the roles Mifune played but I don't think Mifune usually played his characters like Eastwood. I think the physicality and passion of Kirk Douglas is more of a match but hard to be exactly Mifune.

Eww. the devil.

Or Chinatown

He’s reviewing some of the most famous, influential, important films of all time. Rosemary’s baby is a decent horror film. That’s it.

He already told us next month is 2001: A Space Odyssey for it's 50th anniversary.

pureblackeagle are you kidding me. It's fantastic

yes, please Chris.

Vertigo is a better Hitchcock film. If not the best.

Birds And Vertigo are great movies but Psycho is Hitchcock's masterpiece

definetly. 1-Psycho 2-Rear Window 3-Vertigo

Vertigo is Hitchcock's best film and one of the best films of all time.

KARNAG3 when he's finished reviewing pre-70s & post 70s flicks.

while mifune is god, i strongly suggest watching Ran and Kagemusha by kurosawa, if you want to get into tsushima marathon. Also, please watch Sword of doom 1966, it has the best villain main protagonist EVER, as well as harakiri 1962 has the best samurai revenge. harakiri was also rebooted by takashi miike but i strongly suggest watching the original for maximum effect of how much progressive those movies were. trust me, you will NOT be disappointed.

@@Toshiro_Mifune Harakiri is also one of the best shot movies of all time. The term 'Every Frame a Painting' undoubtedly applies to this movie.

Toshiro Mifune Awesome Thanks! Only saw this comment now but I actually did watch Harakiri this weekend (and Yojimbo before it). I’m gonna look into the other suggestions thanks!

Jaga watched it this past weekend and really enjoyed the way the story rolled out!

is there a seven samurai reference in simpsons?
