Adi Shankar Thread - The Uwe Boll of animation.

[Sparky Lurker]

In celebration of the new Castlevania Netflix Captain Laserhawk Series and announcement of the DMC one, I decided to make a thread for this bold creative Indian and his upcoming projects that certainly will make gamers looking for more:

His previous projects were the very well received Castlevania Netflix Series and the satirical The Guardians of Justice on a time where capeshit itself is a satire , here are the trailers for his most recent projects:
Castlevania: Nocturne According to an article from 2021 he wasn't called for the new series and sued the new showrunners(https://screenrant.com/castlevania-spinoff-adi-shankar-lawsuit-explained/), while he was still credited as an "Executive Producer" he was barely involved and unlikely to even be mentioned on season 2.

Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix:

He is doing an Assassins Creed, a Hyper Light Drifter and a PUBG adaptations, he also claims some of his projects makes part of a connected universe. How can he do that considering copyrights? Netflix money baby!

Tell him to adapt boku no pico

This pajeet is annoying as hell. He's got the look of the typical edgy kid who would be bullied in high school, no wonder he wanted to get rid of Apu. Also, those adaptations are not anime.

Get the fuck out, pajeet street shitter.

Then THANK YOU COME AGAIN.

 

[I've Seen Some More Shit]

I'm moderately familiar with Adi Shankar in a fashion I don't want to power-level about, and I'm normally not a guy to run interference for a faggot, but the guy's a pretty genuine case of doing what he wants because he is sincerely interested in the source material. Uwe Boll made dogshit to exploit Germany's willingness to fund anything a German filmmaker does to get rich and fucked with people for a laugh (which is also based) and didn't particularly care about any of it other than maybe Postal.
Shankar is pretty sincere in his interests, but he's also a trust fundie so his tastes are banal and very consumerist. The "connected universe" you're talking about is his "Bootleg Universe" which isn't really a cinematic universe sort of thing, just how he catalogs all of his un(der)successful live-action one-shot projects. The first one, "Punisher: Dirty Laundry" is okay if very sophomoric.

The real reason he gets away with it isn't because of Netflix, it's because his dad was the CEO of Standard Chartered's European and Asian divisions, Vis Shankar. Vis is also now the CEO of a massive investment firm across Africa, Eurasia, and Southeast Asia, Gateway.

Check out the episode of PKA with him on it. He's so fucking weird.

Look at that rictus. Reminds me of that chimp picture, the one labeling that his facial expression is fearful and aggressive.

Yeah its not exactly visionary to say do an epic fight scene here to his staff, who actually make the show.
Knowing he's a pajeet makes all the bobs & vegene cringe scenes make sense. The dialogue was always juvenile and edgelord, but again streetshitter explains it

 

[DOUBLE_WHEEL]

He's a faggot and most of the stuff he's produced is just one step above fan films on youtube. His castlevania adaption is shit and I expect his Devil may cry adaption to make DmC(2013) look good.

 

[Seafarer]

You can’t call him “the Uwe Boll of animation” until he beats the shit out of his critics in the boxing ring.

 

[John Titor]

I don't know how much involvement he had with Castlevania, I've been blaming most of the shittiness on Warren Ellis.

While Warren is really the one to blame for the writing, Adi loves to parade around that he worked on such masterpiece:

From memory he only likes picking up IPs where he can insert gay sex where there wasn't already any gay sex, BnP might have too much as a baseline so he wouldn't know where to add any more...

 

[Uranus Pink]

Y'all are sheltered as fuck to think Boku no Pico is the only yaoi the Japanese have made. Where it's only notoriety is it being western newfags first exposure to yaoi.

 

[GasTheGoblins]

Barely sat through Nocturne, it's total shit, story-wise for the most part. Go feminism, diversity, spend 70% talking about slavery, "white's god bad". Oh and Annette's a nigger. There you go.

Also, there's just too many pajeets everywhere...cockroaches are milder in comparison.

 

[Sparky Lurker]

Castlevania: Nocturne is more hilarious when you discover Adi forced himself into the production since they started the adaptation without his knowledge:

Probably the reason why Nocturne ended turning into a fucking mess even compared to the first series.

Sir, this is an internet cyberbullying site, stalker child.

He made a self-insert character for the FarCry: Blood Dragon game? That defeats the purpose of Michael Biehn as the lead character in the original.
