    I think many of those old Kurosawa films are just rip offs of many 1890s John Sturges films

      Wow this is astonishingly wrong. You maybe meant John Ford who was a huge influence on Kurosawa, but he wasn’t even born until 1894 and motion pictures were not really a thing yet at that time, Trip to the Moon is 1905

        Trip to the Moon can’t have come out in 1905 because Wright Brothers hadn’t invented NASA yet.
