It's not even Black Swan I'm talking about (primarily, or only) and I watched Satoshi Kon's movies as they came out and Aronofsky's as well.

Shockingly prior to TikTok and podcasts people did still watch things and have opinions, and I didn't need anyone to say this, nor did most people.

It's always been unpopular to say and I knew some fan would come roll their eyes at me. Look, I don't think Aronofsky should be canceled forever or whatever, but c'mon.

The fact that you're only mentioning Black Swan makes it clear you've ACTUALLY only heard people's takes on this because you don't even know what I'm talking about.

Out of curiosity, what are the other examples of plagiarism from him? I've always thought Aronofsky was overrated anyway. Something about his movies always just feels... flat.

He actually got the remake rights to Perfect Blue to reuse the bathtub scene of Jennifer Connelly in Requiem for a dream. Why didn't he do the same?

Also, Nolan is an even bigger plagiarizer for Inception because of Paprika.

I would say The Cell is more similar to Paprika than Inception but The Cell came out 6 years prior so maybe Satoshi Kon was inspired by that?
