Bunraku is a bizarre 2010 film, described as a "computer-animated live-action fantasy" that revolves around a No Name Given stock character who goes around fighting crime and taking names. Directed by Guy Moshe, the title of the film is based on a 400-year-old form of Japanese puppet theater.The plot is as follows: In a post-apocalyptic future, a mysterious drifter (Josh Hartnett) and the ardent young samurai Yoshi (GACKT) both arrive in a town terrorized by outrageous and virulent criminals. Each is obsessed with his separate mission and, guided by the wisdom of The Bartender (Woody Harrelson) at the Horseless Horseman Saloon, the two eventually join forces to bring down the corrupt and contemptuous reign of Nicola (Ron Perlman), the awesomely evil "woodcutter", and his mistress Alexandra (Demi Moore), a Femme Fatale with a secret past. Heroes triumph here only because the force of their will transforms and transcends both space and time. | |

Always Someone Better: The Drifter's philosophy is that nobody can stay on top forever — sooner or later someone stronger is bound to come along. He learned this from his father, who said the same thing to Nicola before Nicola killed him. | |

Schizo Tech: The technology is confusing.

Good Old Fisticuffs: The Drifter's preferred weapon. It's notable since everyone else uses acrobatic fighting styles but he proves to be one of the best fighters in the city while using standard punches. Even near the end when everyone is arming themselves with swords and such, he just takes a pair of brass knuckles. | |

Smoking Is Cool: The Drifter is constantly sniffing cigars and cigarettes, but never smokes a real cigarette until the end of the film. The one that the bartender gives him is fake. It seems that he's denying himself the pleasure of smoking until after his vengeance is complete. | |

When All You Have Is a Hammer…: It's established very early on that the Drifter is good at punching people in the face. So getting enlisted to do battle against a cunning and vicious crime lord with a whole army at his command means he's going to be punching lots and lots of people in the face. It pretty much works. | |

Shout-Out: The Drifter has a tattoo of American McGee's Cheshire Cat on his wrist. The tagline is also a reversal of a classic line of A New Hope ("an elegant weapon for a more civilized age"). When the Barkeep finally sees Alexandra again, she's too stunned and ashamed to move anywhere as the burning house collapses on her, which also happened in Seven Samurai. | |

| Bunraku / int_ca87e3ec | comment |
No Name Given: The Drifter, The Bartender, Uncle, and Killer #2 (though technically this goes for all the Killers, and even many of the lower level henchmen...the Chief of Police is introduced not once, but twice as just "The Chief of Police"). | |

The End of the World as We Know It | |
| Bunraku / int_d71d51fd | comment |
The End of the World as We Know It: Heavily implied to be down to the Nuclear Option, the world was wrecked but not completely destroyed, and civilisation had to rebuild itself. | |

Chekhov's Gunman | |
| Bunraku / int_dcbe8a6e | comment |
Chekhov's Gunman: Before the showdown that begins the film, the Narrator points out several scouts from the Proletarian League of Defense watching from the rooftops. They are promptly forgotten until late in the film when the Bartender brings Yoshi and the Drifter to the League to recruit them for the climactic attack on Nicola's training camp. | |

Freudian Trio: Yoshi is honorable to a fault in his heroism, The Drifter is coldly practical, while the Bartender strikes middle ground peacefully. | |

Bathe Her and Bring Her to Me: Killer #2 tells the prostitutes to get Momoko ready for him later that night. Alexandra is also bathed before being sent back to Nicola. | |

The Piano Player | |
| Bunraku / int_fd1a2d7e | comment |
The Piano Player: There in one at the Bartender's place, who originally is playing a soulful piece of music until the Bartender throws a piece of fruit at his head. After that, true to the Western form, he plays a jaunty ragtime, then runs out when it looks like the Drifter is going to start a brawl. Later on, he is replaced by a stereo and a sign: "Piano Player Wanted". | |
