Are samurai movies to japan what cowboy movies are to america, and kungfu movies are to china? If so, what else falls in that line?

Porn and Europe.

European knight films?

well i can't think of one movie set in africa that doesn't involve genocide or war

horror and /x/

interracial cuck porn and Sup Forums

>Are samurai movies to japan what cowboy movies are to america,
You got it backwards. Cowboy movies imitated Samurai movies. In fact they outright copy the plot with Kurosawa films.

I don't think they're country related, but trends that come and go with time. Samurai movies were big in the 50s and 60s, classic westerns were big in the 50s, and then came the age of spaghetti westerns, that lasted until the early 70s. Kung Fu movies were big in the 70s, and Mobster movies lasted until the 90s. Nowadays, since the late 90s and early 00s, we're in the age of super hero movies. Who knows what's gonna come next...

...

jesus christ please tell me this is a ruse

you do realize westerns have been around since they started making films right? you're talking about one instance of a spaghetti western made in the fucking 60s

Medieval and Sword-and-Sandal films in Europe

It's actually the other way around, baitman.

Are kung fu movies really that similar to cowboy and samurai movies? I don't think so personally, but I know less about them in general.

Japanese took western style from USA, and later Sergio Leone, an Italian, took a plot Kurosawa to make A Fistful of Dollars, in the sixties, long after westerns were a staple in America.

and then kurosawa took king lear, written by shakespeare, an englishman, and made Ran

Westerns are shit.
Japanese samurai movies are superior.

Hmmm

>you're talking about one instance of a spaghetti western made in the fucking 60s

wew lad.

holy shit a whole TWO(!) movies

I didn't know The Magnificent Seven was considered a spaghetti western. Seems really closer to classic american westerns to me. Also, wasn't it directed by an american?

Not sure if you all know this but they're releasing a remake of this later this year. It has YOU AND ME DANCE OFF, Ethan Hawke and Denzel in it too.

>Ethan Hawke and Denzel in it too.

so they're going for the training day crowd i guess?

Lets make it three.

There is a rather high resolution, perfectly readable poster on that post. It's as American as apple pie.

I saw the trailer. Honestly, it doesn't bother me that much, as it will soon be forgotten. The first Magnificent Seven was bretty gud, but not an amazing movie. It's relevancy was in its uniqueness at the time of its release, and it's highly regarded nowadays because of its inffluence. The new version of the movie will just be a shitty quipfest with horrendous CGI and mediocre direction. Won't last longer than a month in the public eye, just like most blockbusters. Hopefully, this fad among Hollywood studios of releasing succesful movies will wear off. Then we won't have to endure more shitty remakes of Ben Hur, Birth Of A Nation, The Magnificent Seven, etc.

>It's as American as apple pie.
Then why did that user reffer to it as a spaghetti western?

>It's as American as apple pie.

So everyone makes it but you being a bunch of ignorant twats think it's a staple of your culture?

Japan invented cowboy movies
Read up on Yojimbo

Low-tier b8

Its fucking true retard
I wrote a paper on this in school

I'd bet there are autists who would fall for this on Sup Forums. No hook in this fish's mouth tho. But go on, I enjoy this.

Hol up
You be saying Paul Newman made another Western besides Butch Cassidy and Hombre?

Would you really call the new birth of a nation a remake?

You forgot one

Shit

>Westerns are shit.
>Japanese samurai movies are superior.

What do think about samurai westerns?

I didn't. He claimed that one spaghetti western was re-make of samurai flick. It wasn't only western made out of just Kurosawas movies.

>Low-tier b8

Modern westerns were very heavily influenced samurai movies, since early 50's when westerns became more morally ambiguous instead of oldschool white hats vs black hats stuff. Ironically 30's and 40's western detective stories were huge influence for Kurosawa.

westerns = samurai movies = film noir

I don't know, I thought that's what it was...
>I didn't. He claimed that one spaghetti western was re-make of samurai flick. It wasn't only western made out of just Kurosawas movies.
Oh, I see, my mistake. Sorry. Check my digits, though.

>Modern westerns were very heavily influenced samurai movies
Modern, yes

>Ironically 30's and 40's western detective stories were huge influence for Kurosawa.
He said Fort and Altman were huge influences on him.

>westerns = samurai = noir
Umm

>samurai films are called chanbara
>they are the most comparable with westerns though not all of them
>noir is quite different

>samurai westerns
Red Sun was fucking amazing. What about Chink remake/homage/parody films on Italian Revisionist Westerns?

Russian Osterns

But all the best Westerns are Italian, not american.

this

superior japanese plot folded over a 1000 times

You mean sweden, Sup Forums is Anime.

american westerns are shit
spaghetti westerns are GOAT

Sup Forums is anime

...if you don't know the relationships between those movies, then well, you know exactly nothing about film history.

Obviously westerns, samurai flicks and Kung fu movies are all in the highest tier but don't forget pirate flicks in the 20s. Those were fun as hell.

Also, the Good, the Bad and the Weird was awesome as well. I love how the good one killed a shit ton of people and the bad was the one who killed the least people.

Also JUDGE ROY BEAN...

>pirate flicks in the 20s
20s were all about melodrama, romance and slapstick comedies.

the gods must be crazy?

Yep, the pirate flicks popped up in the late 30's

Kids are easy to spot. Western started to became more complex in late 40's and early 50's. Europeans just cranked it to 11.

There are tons of GOAT American westerns.

Why did I not know this movie existed

Fort Apache's my favorite Ford western, that ending is brutal

Ok, old man, sorry to hurt your feelings.
Can you recommend me some good american westerns, then?

They are called Spaghetti westerns because they are filmed in Italy because its cheaper. they still had american everything
