I like the look and animation though. It's definitely going for 90's Disney.

This one's kind of the odd one out, the other Melnitsa animations have more of a Dreamworks vibe to them.

Russian History isn't my specialty, but I'm seeing musketters, cannoneers, grenadiers, and some motherfucking Winged Hussars.

>>95365406
Based on the colors and weapons, I'd bet its earlier. Maybe 1660 or so, before Peter the Great 's modernization.

>>95365915
>1660
16th century means 1500 to 1599.
18th century means 1700 to 1799.
So, no, not earlier. Dead in the center of the timeframe.

But anyways, that would mean the Russo-Polish War.

Unironically looks better than anything Disney has made in the past five years.

>>95365915
1609. It's about siege of Smolensk that lasted for 11 months when Commonwealth tried to invade us during Time of Troubles (aka Game of Thrones but with poles instead of freeze zombies) and Civil War.

>>95366027
I'm seeing the Smolensk War as being between 1632 and 1634?

>>95365864
Yes. It's cheaper and they mostly produce the series about Three Bogatyrs nowadays. I liked individual movies (especially Dobryna's), but grown-up get worse with every movie. Back in the 90s they also animated Wizard of Oz. It was obviously super cheap (that's late 90s in Russia for you), but enjoyable.

>>95365480
It's not like Disney is using it.

>>95365315
Hey now, the Poles fucked the Turks. I think we can all agree that is a point for them.

>>95366060
The Smolensk War was about Romanovs trying to take Smolensk back after Commonwealth got in the piece treaty in 1618.

>>95366077
>Wizard of Oz
That sounds interesting. Was it just a straight adaptation of the film, or did they go more with the original novels? Or did it have some uniquely Russian elements?

>>95366110
Honestly, who didn't fuck the Turks?

>>95366119
Okay. Wikipedia is shitty for this. I'm just interested in reading about the actual conflict being depicted in this film.

>>95366136
The Byzantines

>>95366136
The Poles started the trend

>>95366128
It was pretty straight forward adaptation of the book and then the second one in a sequel. If they wanted to add Russian flavor they would have adapted Volkov's books (which started as a translation of the first one, but then moved in a completely different direction. There's a mecha fighting a giant witch in a fifth book. Just saying)

>>95366149
Honestly, just read about Time of Troubles. It's a conflict that was going since late 16th century where polish aristocracy funded pretender on the throne after the dynasty that ruled since 9th century ended and Russia was hit by drought. And the fucker actually won. But then Russian aristocracy killed him. So Commonwealth funded the second one, who claimed he is the first (even though he looked nothing like him).
Read it. At one point, one tzar poisoned his cousin, because his cousin was using the never before used strategy of winning.

>>95366342
Perfect, thank you! I can find material with those descriptors. Googling "polish russian wars" wasn't giving a lot of helpful material. Most everything was WW2 related as I expected, but I didn't how to narrow it down otherwise.

>>95366328
The second one in russia is actually about Witch's underling building an army of wood soldiers (admittedly he brings them to life with something from American second book) and then conquering everything and setting up a real fucking government...until he loses.
Third one about is about one of his generals going to the underworld where seven kings rule each every month.
Fourth is about antagonist from the second returning and uniting the mountain tribes thanks to the giant bird he found and nursed to health. He then defeated with a power of soccer.
Fifth about giant witch waking up and unleashing chemical attack/pollution on everything. Then they go to now reformed antagonist of 2nd and 4th book and tell him about their insane plan to murder her with the giant robot. He is on board. She actually tried to recruit him earlier in the book, but he pretty much laughs in her face and says she is going to lose.
Never read the sixth, but apparently it has aliens.

You might be interested in Sergei Sukhinov's books too. He based his series on "The Wizard of the Emerald City" but he takes his version of Oz in a different direction. Simply put it's Dorothy and her friends fight a dark lord.

Too bad Tarkovsky died of cancer in the 80s. I can imagine he would have made a single shot unchanging focus movie about the downfall of the Soviet Union and the rise of the Russian Federation throughout the 90s to the mid 2000s.

America would only know it as an awesome first person shooter that was released as a bugged alpha a couple of years of ago.

I know sound like a cunt, but I would fucking love to live in a world where such a movie existed. I only watched Stalker because of the game. Still haven't read the book.

>>95367722
Book is great, but in completely different way from film. They both use same concepts, but that's about it. Strugatskies were always in love with developing setting. Inhabited island and Hard to be a God have great settings, too.

Fuck, now I have to read this book too. And it'll be a higher priority than the Oz books I heard about earlier. I used to be a fa/tg/uy, I fucking love me some world-building for the sake of world-building. That was my problem with the movie (though I figured it was kind of the point) that they never even tried to give even a hint as to what the Zone was, or where it came from.

>>95367947
I really like how they use Zones in it. I was never the fan of 'Chernobyl, guys!' in the games.

Well, it kind of had nothing to do with Chernobyl in the games. It was all about the DUGA radar system, and it being used in secret experiments through the 80s and 90s to affect to the Noosphere as part of a Soviet and post-Soviet mind control experiment. Chernobyl was just a cover. Irradiated land that no one can go to, but still fully powered because of a (broken and unmanned) nuclear reactor? Evil science dream setting. That's why the blast occurred in 2007 in the game timeline. They broke through the Noosphere and destroyed local reality. It could have happened anywhere.

Frankly, it was the twist of the first game's plot. Chernobyl, LOL was to throw you off.

>>95368257
Not exactly. Both Tangled and Frozen carried over the look of their pre-Pocahontas 90's films, a style largely pioneered by Glen Keane. Zootopia borrowed from previous talking animal features like Robin Hood. Wreck-It Ralph, granted, was a mishmash of styles, but overall I'd say they've been fairly consistent lately with their 3D efforts.

I've played the mods. Oblivion Lost is the best mod I know of. I'm pretty sure that all of the Russian modders merged with the western modders and Oblivion Lost is the de-facto version for everyone at this point, with full localization across the board. That was my understanding from a few years ago. It's been a while since I've STALKED.

>CNPP had 4 reactors after the accident 3 were still operational and used way past the event in the game and real life. The C-Consciousness used "generators" that are only seen in cut content to tamper with the noosphere.
I don't know how to respond to this one. In the American release of Shadow of Chernobyl, the C-Consciousness ending was the main ending. That's without any mods. It wasn't cut for us. And unless I got lucky, I don't think there were other endings in the American version. The ending stated pretty unambiguously that because the other reactors your mentioned were functioning, it was the perfect place for highly secret experiments to be conducted. This lore is confirmed with the American version of Call of Prypriat. In that game, you can meet and save Strelnikov, and the epilogue confirms the C-Consciousness project and the other reactors.

I only know what I've seen in the American localized versions, so it could be different between regions. I wouldn't be surprised.

To be honest, Strugatskys were totally on board, unlike during Solaris. They actually fell behind on their next story when writing the script. Also, they did pull most of their concepts from the book (mutated daughter, anomalies and even the meaning of ending, though changing the context) into the movie.

>>95368043
>I really like how they use Zones in it. I was never the fan of 'Chernobyl, guys!' in the games.

Both Roadside Picnic and the Stalker movie predate the Chernobyl incident.

The games also take heavily from The Forgotten Experiment, an unrelated early story by the Strugatskys.

STALKER the game as we know it was released on March 20th, 2007. STALKER the movie was released on October 20th 1982.

My reference was about Tarkovsky making a movie between 1990 and 2005, as a joke.

A few couple of years ago from the modern viewpoint would be 2014-2015.

Ergo, 15 years to make a movie.
5 years for it to sink in.
4-5 for design and development of a game.
Release shortly after, in basically 2015.
2017-2015=2=couple of years.

And that's being generous, because I was joking about a game based on a film released 30 years prior to it.
