    • @blessuzo
      @blessuzo 3 года назад +161

      At times I feel like Kdramas are repetitive especially when it’s about romance...one drama can mention how the potential couple knew each other from childhood now other romance kdramas will use that same plot idea...it gets boring. To me, I think some kdramas about romance is too repetitive, cliche, unrealistic, and at times childish....there is always a love triangle and it’s annoying lol...plus a cold/mean male lead and a childish female lead. But this is all just my opinion. I prefer thriller than romance when it comes to kdramas.

    • @blessuzo
      @blessuzo 3 года назад +32

      @@chaghetti ...you liked Crash Landing on You? Idk I tried watching it and was a few episodes in and I stopped bc it was unrealistic. I didn’t like how they represented the North Korean villagers they seemed foolish/comical. However, I can’t really judge about that cuz I’m not Korean...I did feel that they needed a North Korean( living in South Korea) to explain some dynamics but I can’t say that they didn’t consult a North Korean for insight lol...Plus, I didn’t understand how the male lead was quick to hide her but that’s just my opinion. But maybe it got better later on lol. Never watched Itaewon Class.

    Dude I absolutely love your videos and your approach to media analysis. The majority of channels I’ve found on RUclips that discuss and analyze film are tortuously pretentious. They’ll produce these long protracted video essays that are just littered with humiliatingly verbose, and flowery language. They assume the role of a serious and intellectual film critic for videos like ‘why Shrek 4 is better than 3.’ It’s like film school affectation but worse. There isn’t the vaguest hint of pretension with your content, it feels like a laidback, unassuming friend of mine is just talking film with me. Which is infinitely more watchable than a full hour of some insincere college student trying to convince me that they’re smart with their semiotic analysis of Madagascar 2. Your content is intelligent but it doesn’t try to be, which is where the sweet spot is.

    My favorite is "Notting Hill". The way Julia Roberts' and Hugh Grant's characters meet and get together is quite unrealistic, but in a perfect Cinderella-like way. However, the central relationship is sweet and genuine, and it feels so real.
    A very significant scene is when Roberts' character Anna comes to find safety from the tabloids at William's house after there have been nude photos of her leaked. Back when the film was made and until very recently it was mainstream for actresses to be slut shamed and bullied by the press without any consequences for those who took advantage of them.
    The way William listens to her and shows that he cares for her at a very critical time is wonderful to see. It's very different from a movie like "How to lose a guy in 10 days" where both main characters are just terrible people.

    I honestly think love, simon restarted the romcom craze. It was so wildly successful by just realistically updating the classic formula. I think some of the newer romcoms struggle to build a character who exists outside of their relationship (and who you also want to root for) without dragging down the runtime. The appeal of romcoms is getting the warm fuzzies every time; the simpler the story is (and the better the writing) the more time the viewer gets to connect with the character and feel the same highs and lows they do. If we break it down, the plot of love simon is "main character tries to find themselves and love" aka every romcom ever. Because it works when it's done well.
