April 21, 20251 yr I get frustrated when Video Game adaptations feel they need to dumb it down or make it needlessly complex for the mainstream audience
April 21, 20251 yr I am one of those were I want an adaption to be as close as possible to the source material, or at least elevate it
April 21, 20251 yr But with this show its funnyWhen they do original stuff I love it so much moreThe Bill episode in season 1 was fantasticI loved the Jackson stuff in this episode and that was original too
April 21, 20251 yr Tbh I think some of these mentalities made their way into the gaming space, and it started with Kojima replacing David Hayter for Keifer Sutherland. Cauze then they recast Kratos, OG7 VA's get recasted, Persona 3 gets recasted, all the Mario and Sonic casts get recasted for the movies likeVideo game stuff feels so expendable
April 21, 20251 yr I mean in regards to Kratos, they tried to make it work with the old one but couldn't
April 21, 20251 yr "What? No we can't have the dude who's voiced Mario for 40 years voice him in the movie hahaha what are you stupid?"Like ok the Minecraft movie, whatever, do what you wantBut idk man, I don't like the way Hollywood treats our source materials.
April 21, 20251 yr It's less hollywood and I think it's a Sagaftra union issueA lot of these studios are signed with sagaftra, which is great to support unions and such
April 21, 20251 yr But an issue with this union specifically is the rule that they can't hire non-unions unless with some rigid rules in placeSo if they are in the union they might as well hire hollywood people as most are in thereVoice actors can't get into this either that easily because Sagaftra firetrucks them over completely
April 21, 20251 yr I love how they clearly don't see Voice Actors as real actors )Man VA's have it the worst manEspecially dub voice actors.You bust your ass and spill your guts out every performance just to have some random jagoffs on the internet be like "Japanese better uwu" who don't speak Japanese, meanwhile the Seiyu they're simping over is totally phoning it in.😔Oh and I love this, you're like required to always downplay your performance and be like "Oh man I was just trying to MATCH the JP actor, they're like so good bro omg" like wtf bro
April 21, 20251 yr the saying of the originaI is aIways better doesn't appIy when there is no dupIicate to compare todubs aren't copies
April 21, 20251 yr Maybe we wouldn't have directors feeling the need to play it safe if these "fans" didn't resort to harassment and death threats at even the slightest whiff of "I don't like that"
April 21, 20251 yr Rare moment where "both sides have a point you guys" actually do both have points lol
