This guy stole ideas


You thought Black Swan is a great movie?
Well, see the movie Perfect Blue and you'll see that Black Swan is a total rip-off of this movie. Of course he never mentioned how he outright stole a lot of scenes.

The proof is here:

Didn't he buy the rights to Perfect Blue or some scene from it? I think that's proof enough that Black Swan was "inspired" by Perfect Blue. When I first watched the trailer for Black Swan without knowing anything about it (the director, story, etc) Perfect Blue instantly came to my mind. I don;t believe he's ever gone on record to say Perfect Blue inspired Black Swan, which is a shame. Personally I'm not bothered by it because I thought Black Swan was a fantastic film in it's own right.

He bought the rights to Perfect Blue to film a scene in Requiem for a Dream.

Black Swan follows the ballet more, albeit loosely.

so let me get this straight.... You copy the entire premise of this thread from a youtube video you saw, but are now acting all indignant that Aronofsky took someone else's ideas? Weird.

What a stupid argument. The OP didn't copy any premise; it's not copying anything to post a reference to something to back one's arguments up. I guess you have no defense for Aranofsky, which is why you had to resort to such a ridiculous comment.

reply

His comment is valid, not ridiculous, because it shows the OP is being hypocritical, which is relevant to the discussion.

The original poster is not being hypocritical.

There's a difference between copying another movie and making a post on the internet that's the same or even reiterating another post on the internet.
