One piece of context regarding his weapon choice: the lāṭhī (baton) is iconic of the Indian policeman, and going back further, the daṇḍa (staff) in Indian mythology is a symbol of justice, order, punishment. He picked, and stubbornly held onto the whole time, a weapon not of mindless violence, but ideologically charged action, which can go either way, if you've seen the film.

[@biscuitchocolate9985]

this reminds me of Batman saying "The hammer of Justice is unisex"

​@Ex muslim cool 😎 Evidence of myth is irrelevant to understanding mythology. It sounds like you don't know the first thing about mythology, let alone Hindu mythology based on your vulgarity here. Maybe you should pay attention in class instead of trying to stir up debates in some random YT comment section.

[@sskpsp]

@Ex muslim cool 😎 idc lol you're not getting what I'm saying. For example, for the story of Vasiṣṭha defeating and humbling Viśvāmitra with the brahmadaṇḍa ...it doesn't matter if any of this happened or existed. The point is to communicate the superiority of brahminical justice over kshatriya arrogance. This is corroborated by other stories such as the story of Paraśurāma exterminating the kshatriya race for their tyrannical arrogance. Just like Captain America or his shield doesn't need to exist even though WWII definitely happened. Genres like fantasy and comics are in fact very intentional modern mythologies. The point of Captain America and his shield was to symbolize defending against the fascist enemy of Nazi Germany.

[@sskpsp]

@Ex muslim cool 😎 also lmao wtf why are you so caught up on my name? I could recite my pravara and 17 generations of Brahmin forefathers. The issue is not who knows or believes more than the other.

I think why people like -'Bollywood'- Tollywood films so much is because the action/over the top aspects of the film are what the raw emotions call for.

2 points/facts: 1. It is not a Bollywood movie but Tollywood. 2.

As someone who loves musicals and really dislikes/is indifferent to most action movies, I had never seen and Indian film prior to RRR and now that I’m watching more of them, I really can’t get enough and I think it’s because Indian directors/filmmakers use the same logic that is applied to musicals. In musicals, if an emotion is too big for speaking, you sing. If the emotion is too big for song, you dance. In India, it feels like they added another layer which is, “If the situation and emotion is too big for either, you fight,” and they will inject the action scenes with whatever emotion the situation calls for. It’s not just, “Put a car chase here, put a fight scene there,” the fight scenes serve a purpose, if done well, just like how a musical number serves a purpose in a musical, if done well.

[@DurgeshSingh1]

Ok..I am gonna suggest you some of our movies. But you also need to understand that there are too many good movies and it is hard to suggest as it really depends on your taste as well. Many Indian movies are filled with cultural references that only Indians will understand because they are only targeted to Indians, so you might feel a disconnect. But anyways, now that I have said all that, I will recommend a few with a much more universal appeal. I will also add a little non-spoiler description for your convenience: 1 - Andhadhun (A story about a blind pianist and how one unfortunate event threw him into a world of darkness(pun intended). This is a very gripping thriller which I think you will enjoy. Some crazy shit happens in the movie. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED) 2 - Tummbad (If you like Guillermo del Toro movies, you will love this. A horror - folklore with one of the best cinematography and camera work that I have seen. The story and the message behind it is amazing. Truly a Masterpiece. Not your typical horror.) 3 - 3 Idiots ( A go-to bollywood film for any non- Indian. It's a comedy drama film with some beautiful and hardhitting message. The movie is fun. You will laugh, cry, dance and learn. You will be surprised with the dark subject matters that this one deals with, being the kind of comedy that it is. ) 4 - Super Deluxe ( 4 interwoven stories shown in parallel, all of them equally interesting and beautiful. The movie is subtle and much more is happening in every scene that you see. This movie is what you call "Every frame a painting".) 5 - Kumbalangi Nights ( This is where you have entered one of the best film industry in India. Malayalam film industry. Here you have truly a gold mine of movies. The thing that makes these movies special is that they always put story and characters as their top priority. Ypu can start off with Kumbalangi nights, this film centres on the strained relationship between four brothers living together in a dysfunctional home, and how they ultimately stand up for each other as a family. One of the many Masterpieces of this industry) 6 - The Lunchbox (2 acting legends from India in this movie and a simple love story between 2 people who have never seen each other, a love triggered by a misplaced lunchbox.) 7 - Gangs of wasseypur 1 and 2 (These two are essentially 1 movie. A very very entertaining gangster movie. This movie will welcome you to the world of director Anurag Kashyap. Remember the name because you are going to be a fan) 8 - Haider (If you like Shakespeare tragedies, this is a twisted adaptation of Hamlet set in the conflicted land of the state of Kashmir. This movie will be highly appreciated if you know the intricacies of Hamlet. But even if u don't know, you will have fun) 9 - Uri - The surgical strike (A military movie based on a true event, a covert operation against a group of militants who attacked a base in Uri, Kashmir, in 2016 and killed many soldiers. Really good movie.) 10 - Kahaani (A pregnant woman, travels to Kolkata from London to search for her missing husband. When all clues lead to a dead end, she realises that there is more than what meets the eye. A good thriller movie.) 11 - RRR (Watch it again, because why tf not)

@@diwakarp3299 "Boring" is your personal opinion, if you only like over-the-top movies, good for you. But these are actually very loved movies in India and outside. Also it's not just about being over the top. RRR is not famous JUST because of over the top action, we have been doing over-the-top action movies from quite some time, why do you think only RRR got the attention? It was also the heart of the movie and a universal appeal to it that sold it to everyone. I have many friends from America who have seen Bahubali and did not like(understand) it, mainly because that movie is targeted to Indian audience and many of the references goes over their head and you really can't blame them for not understanding or liking it. The movies I suggested were with a more universal appeal story wise. It will be easier for them to connect and I tried to put all types of genres (comedy, thriller, mystery, horror, Action-military, Gangster, romcom, drama) so a good range of Indian cinema is covered. And also the stereotype of "Indian cinema is only over-the-top action" is broken.😊 And it's their choice, that's why I added the description so they can choose as per their taste. Also I have shown these movies to my American friends and these are highly loved by them soo.. PS - I am not saying Bahubali is bad, it's just more for Indian audience.

That sound symbolizes that RAM is like an eagle and red shirt guy is the fish in the water(the mob here). We even get a hyper zoom to red shirt guy from RAM's eyes as we hear the eagle sound. just like an Eagle RAM's eyes throughout the scene are laser focused onto red shirt guy, just like an eagle he jumps off into pool of crowd(lake for an eagle) to catch his prey and get him out of the pool. and all this happens without a single fucking dialogue and the action is clearly shown without fake jump cuts to trick audience.

RRR is such a good movie, I'm so glad you are breaking down why this scene is a masterclass in Show Don't Tell.

[@R3natavids]

This is an excellent breakdown! The level of craft in RRR is SO strong and I do wish that more (western) reviewers would recognize that in addition to surface observations about the spectacle. In fairness it’s really overwhelming if you’ve never seen an Indian film before and easy to miss how fine-tuned and intentional every element is. I had the chance to watch a bunch of Rajamouli’s movies just over the past month through film festival screenings and it’s pretty amazing how he’s been able to keep leveling up while maintaining a signature style as he’s gotten access to increasingly larger budgets. I haven’t come across your channel before but this video really impressed me so I went back and watched your LOTR videos! They’re all really excellent and I especially loved the way you addressed a commenter’s skepticism about how to find depth in a story with seemingly simplistic morality. The ‘death star laser beam’ approach struck me as also being the perfect analogy to explain Rajamouli’s approach to filmmaking - point everything in one direction and dial it all the way up! When I try to convince people to watch RRR I’ve been describing it as “an emotional sledgehammer” and I’ve been thinking a lot about why it’s so wildly emotionally effective. (I’ve never made a video essay before but I am THIS close just because I cannot stop talking about this movie…) If you watch interviews with Rajamouli he brings up again and again that he approaches his stories through emotion, and everything else, the visuals, the action, hang off of that essential element. In one of the Q&A screenings I attended he gave an answer I thought was so apt - someone asked, ‘your movies have so many over-the-top/extraordinary feats; how do you know how far you can push reality without going too far?’ And he said, essentially: the level of action has to be justified by the strength of the emotion. Even in real life, you hear stories about people who are able to perform extraordinary feats of strength in moments of extremity, and what we see in his movies is basically an extension of that principal, ramped up to fantastical levels through the power of movie magic. Speaking as a Western audience member, the conversations get sooo hung up over story logic in movies, to the point that we disregard or even no longer recognize emotional logic, but it seems to me that the prioritization of the emotional experience is the key ingredient that has made Rajamouli so successful as a Blockbuster storyteller.

[@pokemonitishere202]

Yes Rajamouli never believes in telling. He shows it & let you believe it. He believes in emotions as it's the universal language for humans.

[@mycroft16]

I have long preferred show don't tell style of storytelling. It just feels so much more satisfying than being spoon-fed every detail. So this film was an absolute treat. Even being unused to Indian films it was immediately apparent withing the first few minutes that this was an extremely well made film in every way. From the cinematography to the locations, the vfx, post work and color grading, just everything was so crisp, clean, tight and yet felt extremely natural.

I'd never watched an Indian movie before because I knew they were over the top (including the musical bits which put me off), so when I watched this I was blown away by the excellent writing and cinematography, by the complex characters and even by the fantasy elements. Because in this context, the over the top parts are meant to feel mythical, like we're watching the epic tale of two legendary heroes. Even some of the singing (the last part) added to the immersion instead of removing it. Excellent analysis of that first scene!

[@katierasburn9571]

yessss, like i've been saying man> RRR is completely ridiculous but its so good you don't even care

The strong emotions is what overpassed the over-the-top aspects and had rather made those overwhelming actions scenes somehwere entertain you

[@dr.metalhead5452]

@@Summerblur ​Firstly, my deductions were based on fragments of Indian movies I'd seen, not on what Western media says about Indian cinema, and they really were over the top. I'm aware other types of movies are made in India, just that when I heard RRR would be action-fantasy and musical, I naturally assumed it would be like those such other movies of which I'd seen fragments. Secondly, my original comment acknowledged my ignorance and preconceptions, hence why I said I was mind-blown by the movie and it opened my eyes to Indian cinema and culture. I've watched other Indian movies since. I'm sure you aren't educated in the cinema of every country in the world either, but sometimes it takes one movie to make us curious to discover more. Thirdly, thanks for the movie recommendations, I'll check them out :)

[@joe-nuh]

I will say that the trumpet motif doesn't end on the same note, it starts on a C and ends on a G, but a few things can still be taken away from the motif that side with your point. The underlying strings, to the best of my ears, do hold out the same note, but even if I'm wrong they absolutely keep the same rhythm while BUILDING in intensity, implying a resolute focus that is only becoming stronger. The trumpet's last note is also held and does something similar and I believe ends on a dominant note. Why it's dominant takes too long to explain, but just know that music theory jargon leads it to being a note that wants to change to another note, C in this case, and resolve the tune nicely and neatly. The trumpet doesn't do this, instead stubbornly holding the G and making the motif more intense and powerful. The last part I'm only about 80% sure about because I'm a little unsure of the song's key, but still music is cool and I like what it's telling the audience about this character. Edit: spelling

You described perfectly how I felt about Ram the moment he was introduced. A British loyalist, hurting his own countrymen, yet a complete badass! The movie sets his arc extremely well. The BGM right before his entry is completely silent. Then it elevates to revealing him. His eyes reflect the fire radiating from the torch one of the rebels is holding. He is frightening throughout this scene. But eventually, he ends up becoming a reverential figure. An absolutely incredible arc.

[@pokemonitishere202]

Bahubali 1 is only am introduction of the characters and the unfolding their background story, the 2nd one is the actual story and yes, the characters in Bahubali and parts of the story are inspired by Indian epics Ramayan and Mahabharat. The level of creativity in Bahubali, the Directors vision amd execution was unimaginable. In my opinion Bahubali is much above RRR.

English Vinglish holds a special place in my heart (and also K3G). The first one is not quite as over-the-top as some Bollywood films can be, so it's a good way to get introduced to the story format without the suspension of disbelief. Plus, SRIDEVI. I think what gets me about these movies is the pain and sense of duty that the mothers feel when they basically have no say in the circumstances they find themselves in. Seeing them take back their agency with such grace and finally receiving the respect they always deserved never fails to make me emotional.

I'm going to be honest, I don't follow this channel or have any knowledge about the Indian culture but after watching the first part of the video I pause and watch the whole movie. at first glance it's a completely over the top movie with way too much of everything, everything is extravagant and exaggerate and as the movie goes on you start to realize that this is the pattern and you start pay more attention to details and the story that even though is quite obvious is also somewhat unique. This movie is in fact one of the best movies I ever saw. I'm not a movie lover that saw thousands movies each one several times but more like a completely noob. My final Opinion is a 9/10 and even if you split into 2 movies of 90 minutes each, Both are amazing. There are several movies that are good but in 90 minutes you are bored for half of it, this movie has 240 minutes and to be hones at least 200 these minutes were enjoyable and for sure Unique. Also another thing completely unrelated, the action scenes are absolute gold. I don't know who wrote this scenes but this man Loves HQ/manga or he is a D&D Player, or both because their resistance and strength is something beyond this world, SPOILER The heroes fight using : Motorcycle , statues, tigers, Logs and people.
