The Rabbitte Perspective

Acting Craftsmanship More and more, not only is it foreseeable to perceive how Netflix, along with other more notable steaming services, has become the place for non cinema-goers to watch old and contemporary features, it's also become an established platform that has graced our viewing gaze with original T.V. and film conceptions that have either gratified or discouraged audiences and critics alike. Indeed, from their staple and ever-acclaimed T.V. properties of Stranger Things and House of Cards , to their distribution efforts in showcasing films such as Cary Fukunaga's Beasts of No Nation and Bong Joo-Ho's Okja , there's arguably no denying that Netflix have firmly provided the common viewer with binge-worthy material that negates our interest in watching other entertainment that would be shown either on our television sets or at the cinemas and keep establishing their name in consistently producing and distributing original and inviting concepts. Much of thi

The End Of The Road? While it can't go unnoticed how many 'popular' anime's of the past and recent history warrant blaring problems of their own, as seen within one of 'the big three' in Noriyuki Abe's Bleach  which, although established a rather intriguing premise for a shōnen in its first sixty episodes, did suffer from focusing on unsatisfactory filler that negated the series' over-arching story-line, it is because of these issues that makes many of these acclaimed anime's recognisable and ever-lasting. This is certainly the case with Sword Art Online ( SAO ) since it's an anime that upholds apparent aspects that have polarised audiences opinions of the said show. Indeed, while it's timely way of depicting a premise that commented on societies addiction to technology and video-gaming was alluring, it was Sword Art Online's  manner of moving away from what made the show an enticing watch to a rather tropey and formulaic product t

Third Time's A Charm... As much as it's been highlighted in many various preceding reviews of Marvel superhero films that the aforementioned genre has indeed become the  staple of blockbuster film-making, which has resulted in many cinephiles arguing and squabbling over its precedence and how they're viewed as features that either entertain or stagnate a cinema-goers gaze, it's equally imperative to state, in the wake of this particular Marvel cinematic-outing, the intricacies Auteurism and where, specifically, the creative outlet and artistry truly resides in the behemoth that is Marvel Studios. Despite the past endeavours of Marvel repelling quixotic creatives from the likes of Edgar Wright and Joss Whedon, it's a studio that's palpable of maintaining what they specifically want shown in their vast array of films and much of that is down to the likes of Producer Kevin Feige. While it's tenable to suggest that the MCU is prominently 'producer-dri

Obligatory Nostalgia Originality. This is a fundamental aspect of creativity and independence which has not only come to shape the way in which film and television creators fabricate a unique concept, but is a facet that influences the way in which we perceive artistic prowess. As much as feature films and lengthy T.V. series strive towards an idea that's innovative and pioneering, it's our need of contextualising which places these authentic methodologies as an intertextual means of artistry; a premise which is shaped by another similar text through obligatory or optional means. This is certainly the case with Netflix's and The Duffer Brothers' show of Stranger Things ; a series that feels unoriginal since it purposefully and artistically references the filmography of Steven Spielberg and literary works of Stephen King. Yet, even though it lives and breathes the ethos of 1980's film and poetic culture, Stranger Things at the same time presents ideas that are
