This is a, oh never mind I should of though of another name for it.

No, that isn't it.

You didn't give us a point to discuss whatsoever. You just made a random named thread, then talked about what you had been watching.

...So what are we meant to discuss? Tell us in the OP. That's how you make a thread!

You know there's something really wrong when you have to teach someone who's been here over a year and a half how to make a thread.

Who the hell is Satoshi Kon? What are Tokyo Godfathers and Peprika about? Are they well known at all?

[Avarice]

Satoshi Kon is a film maker who makes films.

These films have subjects about their subject.

That's all I got out of this thread.

[Adam]

I would have initially thought that "Satoshi Kon" was a misspell of "Satoshi-kun" if it wasn't for the fact that the thread maker's name is "BanjoKun".

[Avarice]

If that were the case I'd make a joke like "Poor Shion ," but then no one would know what I was talking about.

Satoshi Kon is a good (anime) filmmaker and you should see both of those films ASAP.

You shan't be disappointed.

I loved Paprika.

R.I.P. Satoshi!

Never heard of him, but this right here is sad.

Shut.

Up.

You are not some top-tier, amazing poster who's such an expert at thread-making that you can just go "GOD ITS SO HARD DOING THIS JOB THAT I DONT EVEN HAVE UGH NOOBS".

Also, just because the OP didn't provide all the information doesn't mean you don't have the ability to go to http://www.google.com and look it up. Take some initiative yourself if you're going to complain about other people not taking initiative. Or, better yet, just don't post in the topic at all if you don't already know anything about it.


Satoshi Kon was a great man and a great film-maker. He will be missed, greatly. I haven't seen Paprika in forever so I'll probably give it another watch soon.

@CK: People usually provide at least a little bit of background knowledge in their first post of a thread. You're kind of supposed to do that, especially on a thread about something that is not well-known. We shouldn't really be arsed to google it.

[ConkerKing]

It would take all of 1 minute, tops. It's not like Googling something is the hardest thing in the world. Yes, he should've put the info in the OP, but it would take alot less time to just Google it than complain about it in the topic.

*restrained laughter* Even when I ask sometimes who a person is or what a term means and the response is "Google is your friend"? Just saying.
