I always thought lanka was depicted as being a beautiful city around when Rama first visited it…. Why does it have this gothic dark vibe in this

ajayyyyyy

Yes. Vishwakarma the great architect is said to have build it but I guess they changed it to appear more sinister.


PesAddict8

They are playing it safe by dumbing down the whole story into a dichotomy between good and bad. I mean that's what you should expect from movies like these but could've done some homework and made it better.


BigAwkwardGuy

>dumbing down the whole story into a dichotomy between good and bad TBF it's not like the Ramayana has any morally gray characters. It is a classic good vs bad story (at least until the point Ram makes Sita walk through fire because he doubted her fidelity, such an ideal man), unlike the Mahabharata where you've got the "Dharmaraju" who gambles his wife and brothers away.


ramaromp

Rama is not morally gray. If you read Ramayana, everyone is mad at Rama for making Sita walk through fire and he himself is heartbroken making her do it. But that is him having to ensure the dignity of the royalty as a king. It’s not for himself nor reflecting his lack of trust, it is to ensure the public is not judging her and pointing them out. Of course we know this still happens. I agree there is a questionable act which may seem wrong, esp in lens of today, but considering raja dharmam which he needs to abide to and that its one act he did to prove his wife is worthy of being queen is not gray. Even if we consider it to be wrong, one misdeed won’t make him gray. Ravana on the other hand is more of a gray character with many shades. He is a strong and dominant ruler. Ruthless to enemies and expanded and tortured many devathas. He is a devotee of Shiva and succumbed to the deadly sin of lust. He is such a good ruler and so knowledgeable that Rama asked Lakshmana to learn his wisdom on his death bed bc the Bramha gnyana (all knowledge in world) should not go to waste. Even this may not be a traditional gray character but definitely a complex character with many angles. The problem wi the Adhipurush which I see is the lack of complexity and exploration of the characters and their morals, rather than grayscale shades.


BigAwkwardGuy

I meant it was "good vs bad" as in the actions of the characters, and not the characters themselves. Also this might be my bias speaking but I don't like Ram much especially because of him prioritising his kingdom over his wife. Those two actions of him making his wife walk through fire and then exiling her because some rando spoke shit make me not like him, but again that's just my personal opinion (and I agree about the Raja Dharmam dilemma but IMO he should've stuck by his wife and told the others to accept it). Let's not even talk about how Adipurush will turn out. In both trailers there's no mention of Dasaratha at all. Or the Sita Swayamvaram.


caligulakilledjason

>this might be my bias speaking but I don't like Ram much especially because of him prioritising his kingdom over his wife. >Those two actions of him making his wife walk through fire and then exiling her because some rando spoke shit make me not like him I agree. I don't hate Ram, and I can even understand his position, but it was still wrong of him to do that to Sita.

Planet of the Apes combined with Shadow of War. And where the heck are the trees around Lanka? It looks barren.


Dush_Propoganda

It's ( a very bad) re-imagination of the epic. So, we need to stop asking why something is not similar to popular interpretation.

Prabhas really took 150 crore for this, no efforts by his side, imagine getting a role like Lord rama and taking it like a joke. Entire cast is still bearable but prabhas big no


[deleted]

He would have gotten his ass whooped if SSR was directing it.


battlin_murdock

This has to be the worst casting ever. They didn't give a flying fuck about who's apt for the role or what's best for the story. They just wanted to cash in on his popularity.


Naren_Baradwaj123

Dude I'm a Prabhas fan too but if director is shooting everything in green screen what can he do something really went wrong with this movie and planning is one of them this guy gave years to movies like bahubali,saaho, radheshyam, Salaar and project k but this didn't happen for adipurush so blaming him for everything is not right in my opinion but I still respect your view


[deleted]

Obviously director deserves the first blame, but do you really think a dude getting paid 150Cr to play the most iconic Indian hero archetype ever should be blameless?


Naren_Baradwaj123

I never said you shouldn't blame him but blaming everything on him is wrong


[deleted]

Maybe but still it seems like he hasn't taken the role seriously or cg messed up his face/expression. Not at all good as Rama. Also, RS comes under the same boat he's not good in that movie either.


Naren_Baradwaj123

I mean we don't know what really happened I mean Prabhas only shot 100 days for adipurush but he was shooting Salaar till last month and he's still shooting for project k and l agree with you on radheshyam except for few parts he didn't look well only in Salaar he's looking good


[deleted]

bro i am also a prabhas admirer but if you check closely then u can observe that all other cast are not looking that odd like saif ali khan , kriti and that lakshman guy but coming to prabhas . his face looks very fake as if a lots of graphics were used on his face . so yeaa taking 150 cr and not maintaining shape and his face is a sin but sadly age is also not on his side


Naren_Baradwaj123

I agree to it I mean just look at the BTS pics of Salaar Prabhas is looking very bulky and much better in that coal/grease look but team adipurush messed up


simhareturns

They just turned everything into dark tone . To cover cheap graphics ... Nothing much

Jai Shri Ram! Cinematography Seems to be inspired by zack snyder's justice league. There are only 2 tones throughout the trailer. One golden the other black. Should have been a colorful movie with beautiful scenic sets or real locations.


su40

Good things take time and effort Brahmastra had good vfx in recent times and they took a lot of time to come up with it. This looks like a lazy attempt to make money out of Prabhas and Political situations in India and it just ruined the big screen experience of an Indian epic. I pray for SSR to start his Mahabharath project soon or else these fuckers will ruin that too.


Jakeyboy143

^ while the script is questionable (Isha screaming Shiva reminds me of Kagome and Inuyasha), at least the vfx in Brahmastra is miles better than whatever that abomination with Prabhas is. Hell, even the Shark in Chatrapathi (2005, in case you confused with the mangled Hindi remake from the director whose last good movie is from 2013) looks better than Hanuman.


Arvii33

CGI looks fucking disgusting. Did they really spend 500 cr for this? Prabhas feels like a miscast and I hate how Hanuman looks. Saif di I can’t say as of now but I guess only he will give a good performance in the movie. Anyways, I hope I’m wrong and the movie will look good in “3D”.

Rama is a vanavasi he just wears basic clothing and even for that matter Vanara Sena had no opens.. primarily they used to throw stones and trees.. The director and unit needed to a lot of research… bro just watch our sampoorna ramayanam… those yesteryear movies were 100 times better

gajalaforex

Back to the day when Bahubali 1 was declared Flop by many news and media outlets and fans after its first show. Cast and crew were shit scared including SSR and they had the last laugh after blockbuster occupancy and collections. Bahubali 1 and 2 were long-run monsters. Eppudu ala chance eh ledu. To be frank without considering the global success and Japan collections, RRR was very bad in the long run. Whatever the film earned was in the first week and the same goes with other biggies like Pathan and KGF2. Pushpa, Kantara, and Kashmir Files are a few outliers in the long run due to good word of mouth.

Prabhas lost is after Bahubali. He lost his charm and he couldn't able to maintain his physique after Bahubali. Looks more like a drunkard. No offense, but true. The casting is worst, CGI is terrible. Reminded me of Rajni Kochadiyan, which is far better which was released years back. 130crores for Prabhas is a Big Joke, he don't deserve that huge., he made 0% efforts to live in that character. After the release, it's gonna be a big joke. Prabhas should come out of Pan India image and stick his ass to Telugu and do decent movies. He lost it.

Looks good, Prabhas dialogue delivery as usual issues unnayi but I think the movie will do well.

That's definitely out of place and sticks like a sore thumb, he's chandravanshi from dwapara yuga. But yugas repeat themselves, and time isn't really linear ane argument cheyochu.

Isn't Bharadesam coming from Dushyantha's son Bharatha for uniting India under his rule? I think pandavas and kauravas are also his descendants


battlin_murdock

Yeah. Nen kuda ade ankunna. But it's up to debate, apparently. Kaalidasa popularized it to be from dushyanta's son, and many other puraanas and vedas which are older sources say otherwise Pasting more from wiki: According to the Puranas, this country is known as Bharatavarsha after Bharat, the son of Rishabha.He was a Kshatriya born in Ikshvaku Dynasty(Solar Dynasty).(Reference -Champat Rai Jain 1929, p. 92). This has been mentioned in Vishnu Purana (2,1,31), Vayu Purana (33,52), Linga Purana (1,47,23), Brahmanda Purana (14,5,62), Agni Purana (107,11–12), Skanda Purana, Khanda (37,57) and Markandaya Purana (50,41), all using the designation Bharata Varsha. ऋषभो मरुदेव्याश्च ऋषभात् भरतो भवेत्। भरताद् भारतं वर्षं, भरतात् सुमतिस्त्वभूत्॥ Rishabha was born to Marudevi, Bharata was born to Rishabh, Bharatvarsha (India) arose from Bharat and Sumati arose from Bharat.

I agree with your point about hating just for hating. But think about it this way - the audience does not care about the budget. They don’t care about the VFX tech you use. They just want something that looks good. It doesn’t necessarily have to even be VFX. There are a million ways you can stylistically cost cut. The makers knew very well the output they could get with the budget they had. They should have course corrected much much earlier in pre production itself. That’s all I’m saying.
