      I also tend toward darker themes.

      The mainstreaming and Disney-fication of “gritty” movies has been absolutely dogshit for the content.

      You can’t make Blade or The Crow anymore. You can barely make The Matrix. You just get a bunch of GrimDark cartoony bullshit.

          They do all this build up and the climax of Golden Age really grabs you. Then its just… damn, yeah. More of that high drama / political intrigue / folly of man’s hubris / yearning of the human heart shit. The monster fights are fun, but the real meat of Berserk is that romance and betrayal.
