You are now watching the best show on TV IMHO. Because you appreciate the production as well as the plot and acting, this may end up being your favorite too! Can't wait to watch your journey.
We mortal humans try in vain to adhere our moral structure and our personal conceptions of life and death onto God! We judge God and assign blame onto him when children die. What we fail to conceive is that to God there is no death, no end to those innocent lives. Their souls and spirits are eternal and they simply transition from one state of being into the next. Love the atmosphere and storytelling in this film. I've heard some refer to it as slow and boring but to those with an appreciation of film and art it's a masterpiece! Glad you reacted to it. The Lighthouse and The Northman are both quite good films of Mr Eggers. Another suggestion is Frailty starring and directed by Bill Paxton of ALIENS and TWISTER fame.
The director-writer, Robert Eggers used the records and journals from the Puritan period so the dialogue would be accurate to the era. Some of the lines are verbatim quotes. A perfect and dreadful movie. And one of my favorite portrayals of the Devil in movies.
It is called Détente. It is meant to be a peace between parties on equal footing to discuss terms of peace. NOW we ALSO call it MAD! Mutually Assured Distruction! 😱
This was by far my favorite reaction of this movie, you guys picked up on a lot of stuff, on the details and themes and mood, and I was really really impressed, especially by how you discussed things and broke them down both in the moment and after. I'm definitely going to check out your other reactions now!
U guys should watch physics classes.. For reasons and logic.. First of all understand what the purpose of watching movies.. It's entertainment.. 😅.. .. Science and logic is not the primary concern.. Of movies
Just realized I went on a date in '09, we saw Inglorious Basterds...went on another date in early '13, it was Django Unchained. I couldn't stop taking girls to Tarantino movies lmao (both were fun times, but no second date)
Please give this show your time. This series is changing not just anime, but story-telling overall. As mentioned by another in the comments, the first 4 were released simultaneously as a prologue, which will make sense by the end of the 4th episode.
The mimic as the treasure chest with teeth was created in 1974, based on much older ideas from fantasy fiction. Frickin’ Dark Souls. It’s all kids today know about 😉 Glad to see you’re watching this. I resubscribed.
The names in Frieren are all German words. Knowing what they mean isn't necessary, but there is a lot of added value with symbolism and such. Frieren - (to feel) cold, freezing Himmel - Sky/Heaven Heiter - Bright/Cheerful Eisen - Iron Flamme - Flame, passion Fern - Distant.
This is a really good and beautiful show. Very different from other anime. So well made in every way. Characters, story, animation, music and everything. :)
