It's sad to see Japan fall. Their men/women relationships have better sides than ours (Japanese women respect men and vice-versa - they don't have crazy nutcase feminists), but they're too far apart. A falling natality is a terrible thing for a country. If we look at population at the beginning of 20th century and now, the population repartition has changed dramatically. https://worldpopulationhistory.org/map/1903/mercator/1/0/25/ Countries like Turkey have a shitty system (this country was unapologetically genocidal), but their demography is fast, which gives them lots of power. Erdogan is insulting the West every day, yet he's still in NATO. I don't know many innovations from China... which are there? They just copy/paste ideas and improve the productivity. Most of the game changing ideas came either from the broad West (Europe/USA) or from East /South East Asia (Four Asian dragons and Japan mainly).

@Cult Icon I guess that track sounds like what the kamikaze heard in their minds when they were crashing into allied ships 😅

Music creates both geniuses and madmen.

^ this track tells so many things. One little kid in Japan could be listening to this song right now and, in ten years, the creative forces that this song made in his mind could be the ones that unlock the next generation of microchips. (I'm very serious BTW )

I don't know if the cello is sadder than the piano (or the other way around), but "plin, plin, plon" is always strong.

@Cult Icon Whenever I feel down, I listen to "plin, plin, plon" and I get better! I remember what Gwyn went through which brings up the male tears and the will to always get better.

The problem with China is that it smothers freedom and freedom is a key ingredient for innovation. (That's why, even if I care a lot about the environment, I'm not an anti-natalist, because I think future generations will bring people with new ideas that will help us protect the environment) It's good to have hard working people, but if they can't innovate, they can't lead the world. Japan is (or used to be) a better country than China, because it's a very good combination of tradition/framework and freedom/imagination. The big problem with Japan is that men/women relationships are even more f*cked up than in the West, which is why they don't make babies any more (which is a big issue). If China can be seen as an organism, it's a highly structured one, very productive, but also a one with few mutations (so more sensitive to stagnation and more fragile). I used to admire the USA for their capacity to innovate, thanks to their (former) freedom, but not any more. The USA is a regressing country, because its imaginary is getting poorer. The US cinema (comic books, literature, and even the gaming industry etc.) is a conformist machine that parrots moral rules (woke rules). A poor imaginary means less freedom and less innovation.

I agree it's JJ's fault as well, but I put his farcical contribution to failure as a secondary cause. Star Wars is mostly a casualty of the culture wars and, to this day, I'm still disgruntled about it.

They massacred Star Wars. It's very hard to forgive them for that (and by "them", I mean the woke monsters that want to re-educate society).

^ Hollywood is a clone factory. They now produce the same kind of political nonsense in all their movies. They will sink. All in all, you're just another brick in the wall.

Possibly one of the most philosophical movies Hollywood ever made.

Oh yes. And they only succeeded with Fallout because of the great job Interplay did before them. Todd Howard is a mess... Have you seen this fake video? It's hilarious
