      it sets up the students for so much disappointment, too. I can’t imagine if instead of learning from teachers, I’d spent 7 years trying to learn violin from videos. I probably would have quit from the discomfort and awful sound without getting my bad habits corrected irl

    • @tewodrosii2875
      @tewodrosii2875 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      no...no...the reason hes not tyler perry is that ALL of his movies are imbued with a VERY real dialogue rhythm from his hometown in Louisiana, So his characters while dramatic and funny, are relatable on a COMMUNAL level. he speaks more for all the black people that didn't leave the south during the great migration.
      Sorkin speaks mainly to the Gen X PMC of the Atlantic northeast, thus why studio 60 was so awkward but the Newsroom killed. theres no real connection between the characters beyond what were shown and told its....look, Im high AF, im gonna go eat this Sugar Cookie Toast Crunch and pass out.

    It's shocking that he likes Tarantino because his movies are driven massively by characters. His last movie is about two hours of it's three hour runtime of characters either revealing or trying to hide aspects of themselves. Most of the problems in Tarantino movies are caused by the flaws of the characters rather than the other way around. Not as much of a tragedy of errors like a coen or safdie brothers film but it's still in most of his work. I hope it genuinely isn't just the superficial reason that Tarantino is good at snappy dialogue.

    1:00:40 that “weird 50s way” of talking is called the “Transatlantic Accent” - it was intentionally created by movie studios to combine (what they considered) the best aspects of American & British English dialects. And in order to make their films more accessible ($$$) in both the US and UK, and to generally sound more erudite, actors had to actually learn/perfect this way of speaking.

    • @adamsmith7058
      @adamsmith7058 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      That's not quite right. Old Hollywood did encourage actors to talk this, mostly because it was considered "classy" or a quick way to indicate an upper class character. Originally, it's derived from the mode of speech taught in New England private schools in the late 19th and early 20th century, so this is probably why that association exists.

      I think it is fair to say than Yu Suzuki circa the late 90s had a passion for video games, and ambitious vision shows in the the first two Shenmue games even though story is a really bad imitation of a martial arts movie. It was a technically impressive game with honestly decent gameplay if you could get over some of its clunkiness (there is absolutely no excuse for Shenmue 3 though). David Cage by comparison, clearly despises all the conventions of gaming, so instead of making a traditional game with cinematic elements like Shenmue. Cage makes moderately interactive movies that eschew nearly anything resembling game mechanics. There are a multitude of games out there that qualify as cinematic experiences or are heavily story focused but are still video games. But Cage is clearly only interested in the movie aspect
