Why our South Koreans so good at filmmaking? Literally out out

South Korea is one of the rare few nations that still has a system of merit and not nepotism. Hence, only the best and brightest get that shot to make a film and most of them succeed.

You say this after their president was ousted over a nepotistic corruption scandal?

We're talking film, not politics.

I do the same nearly every time I post about movies.

the only thing I hate about our films is they always, ALWAYS have to add some stupid fart joke or unnecessary humor that just ruins the seriousness of a movie

has anyone else ever seen Asura: City of madness?

The finale in that movie was so incredibly explosive.

>people fart

That's called "realism", sonny. Perhaps some day when you exit your parents' home, you'll encounter more of it.

Well I'll give you credit, they've got a hyper competitive academic and industry standards, and I can't think or a S. Korean film I've seen that wasn't aces. But that definitely did happen, at fault to their intense levels of selectivity and a failed attempt to manuver around it.
