Why are Satoshi Kon movies so forgettable? From other /a/ threads I've noticed that it isn't only me who forgets them, but a lot of other anons as well.
A few years after watching any of his movies leaves only the memory of enjoying them, rather than anything about the story or the plot.

I think you might have Alzheimer's, gramps

That's how it is about almost every series/movie? If you remember most of what you watched once after a few years you're a freak. There are not even a dozen series I remember well.
>>
>>152820108
So it feels fresh when rewatching

Satoshi Kon is incredibly overrated. He basically make live action films in anime form, which in my opinion is boring because the reason I watch anime is exactly to experience something that's different from live action TV.
>>
You weren't watching them correctly.

>>152823069
are you being serious?
>>
>>152823069
I don't get that from his movies at all.

>>152820108
Nor can I emphasize with this. I am confounded.
>>
>>152820108
because the main points for which is work is unforgettable lie not in his plots or artworks. and most viewers really dont care consciously about more detailled aspects, allthough they still somehow feel the magic during the watch and like it.
>>
>>152823069
What are you smoking, the best part of his directing style is that it can't be replicated in live-action.

Hell, he himself said the reason he didn't do live action is because he felt like he couldn't do everything he wanted

>>152820108
I remember his work more than most Ghibli films.

I think his directorial style feels very "Hollywood." Not that his movies are forgettable, but they don't work for me in the way that something from Miyazaki or Takahata might. They just have the feeling of being just another good blockbuster.

I honestly don't want to know in what place you were brought up if that didn't leave an impression.

negating "every scene is forgettable" gives you "there is a non forgettable scene"

i dont see a problem with that logic anon. in addition to that personally i can remember everything about the movie pretty well as it was pretty unique in multiple aspects
>>
>>152825946
No matter how hard I try, I just can't make sense of your post.
>>
>>152826307
op mentioned that the whole movie seemed to be forgettable, some anon proves him wrong by correctly giving a counterexample for a in his opinion not forgettable scene. then some other anon mistakingly claims that this is not enough as "one scene is [not] the whole movie" hence i felt the urge to correct this last anons flawed logic
>>
>>152823069
>He basically make live action films in anime form

I dare you to try and explain what you actually meant by this
>>
>>152826551
im gonna totally project my biggest fear onto this anon and guess that his teenage brain only distincts the cinematic medium into a) real life movies that occur in cinema and tv b) animu with energy through friendship
and is thus forced to sort kon into the first category
>>
>>152826472
I understand. Maybe your thesis would hold some weight if it weren't a strawman.
