When we talk about #Tokusatsu FX directors, the first name that come to mind is, understandably Eiji Tsuburaya (FX director for the first Gojira, Ultraman’s father). However, one less-known person is Nobuo Yajima, who passed away two years ago, in November 2019. A THREAD 
Born in 1928, Yajima left studies in engineering to join Shochiku in 1949, where he studied everything about movies (even collecting tickets in cinemas !). After watching John Ford’s The Hurricane, he grows an interest in FX, and joins the dedicated team at Shochiku.
His interest for editing came after he met a French editor while working as assistant director, cameraman and editor on the French-Japanese movie Typhon sur Nagasaki. An experience that shaped his vision of FX.
With the new image of Zenkaiger,a thread to explain why I think this series is here to save the Super Sentai franchise.I know those rumors have been going on for years. #zenkaizer #zenkaiger #ゼンカイザー #ゼンカイジャー #スーパー戦隊 #特撮 #tokusatsu #supersentai #sentai(1/20)
I’m the first one to have doubts when everybody talks about it every year, but this year, I think it may be true. (2/20)
My argumentation is based on a panel of the Tokyo International Film Festival.
Here’s the link bit.ly/2KD5Nwi
Interestingly, this panel took place at the beginning of November. That means that, during that time, Shirakura knew about the new Sentai. (3/20)

I may or may not have written a thread on the #JDorama acting scene before. I feel like doing one now, so bear with me.
Many of us who follow the #JDorama scene know that actors come from a diverse range of backgrounds. But just how diverse?
Obviously many went into acting as part of an exercise in building their 'multi-talented' #JPop idol profile.
Voy a explicaros por qué vale tanto la pena ir a Vic para el @CinemaOriental. Y aunque difícilmente son comparables, tiene varias ventajas respecto a Sitges si te gusta el cine asiático en general.
Si eres de los que va a Sitges básicamente para ver todo el cine asiático y sufriendo por pillar entradas de ciertas películas... aquí lo tienes fácil. Todo es asiático, no hay que hacer malabares para verlo todo ni para conseguir entradas; que además son mucho más baratas.
Olvídate de lo habitual de Sitges, de ir una hora antes a hacer cola para intentar conseguir un sitio donde veas bien la pantalla. En Vic no hay que hacer colas, puedes llegar al cine 5 minutos antes.
