basically anything miyasaki

dude rapes everyone else

but i especially love this one

[Hotchka!]

i just recently saw both Kite movie and I liked the sequel better Liberator although I only saw the 45 minute version of the first one which is originally 60 minutes so I suppose I cant fairly judge it

When the Wind Blows is a lesser known film that im a big fan of although its been many years since ive seen it. nuclear apocalypse film about an old married couple with soundtrack by roger waters

[Honky Kong 64]

I've never seen a Miyazaki movie I really liked...

Triplets of Bellville was solid though sort of intellectually sparse; the Kells movie starts playing here in 2 weeks and I'll definitely go see it.

Glad to see Fantastic Planet getting some love... Are we not listing Animes? GitS 1+2 and Akira and FotNS and Ninja Scroll would all be up there. I think about half the Animatrix shorts were really good, too.

Edit: 'sup Adam

Edit 2: and I will recommend Paprika for semi-recent psychedelics

are all studio ghibli's miyazaki's?

the Grave of the Fireflies is the only Ghibli but non-Miyazaki one I have heard of

I have not seen Mononoke, maybe I will like that one?

[Hell-haine]

The soundtrack as well is great!

[Hell-haine]

the Grave of the Fireflies

I still need to watch that.
I can handle it now, I'm a big girl.

[caldwell.the.great]

most of my favs have already been mentioned

Akira
Fantastic Planet
Princess Mononoke
Ghost in the Shell
Perfect Blue

I also like Ninja Scroll a lot. And Heavy Metal too. And a movie called Green Legend Ran that ran on Saturday Morning Anime back when Sci-Fi channel hosted cool shit like that. I liked it then, but haven't seen it since. Would really like to get a copy. I guess it was originally made as a 3 episode mini-series, but I'll count it as an animated movie. I remember that the ending is really fucking surreal:

Also, I loved Vamprie Hunter D. Haven't seen it in years, though. Wonder how well that one holds up...

[Necrometer]

let me drop a quick anti-recommendation for Waltz with Bashir - holy cow did that movie suck! (except for the parts with boobs)

also I was recently disappointed by the Patlabor movie - it was too much procedural/drama and not enough robots... maybe the movie I wanted to watch was Appleseed?

[Hotchka!]

The Little Mermaid has held up really well

just sayin

[_-_-_-_-]

Sometime in the future, mankind has depleted all energy and fuel sources, however they have somehow engineered a way to use human excrement as fuel. To reward production, the government hands out extremely addictive, popsicle-like "Juicybars", which in turn also act as a laxative. Aachi and Ssipak are street hoodlums who struggle to survive by trading black market Juicybars. Through a chain of events involving their porn-director acquaintance Jimmy the Freak, they meet wannabe-actress Beautiful, whose defecations are rewarded by exceptional quantities of Juicybars. For that reason, Beautiful is also wanted by the violent blue mutants known as the Diaper Gang (led by the Diaper King), the police (most notably the cyborg police officer Geko), and others.


Its on Cinemageddon. Ask Smegma for an invite

I see you're just sayin but you got me thinking; Are any of the olde timey disney movies still any good? Snow White? Sword in the Stone? I don't think I need to watch them again.

Some of those Pixar movies are real good though. I submit Wall-E to the thread.

[Wolfey]

Like everyone else, anything miyazaki, Princess Mononoke being my favorite

Satoshi Kun's stuff is awesome too, with this being my personal favorite


Millennium Actress

[Hotchka!]

i have Sword in the Stone but havent watched it yet. I didnt think Snow White has held up that well but was very surprised about Bambi. i think I watched it three times over two days. the animation is very stunning as well as the music if youre open to it. the script though was surprisingly very sparse so i just gave that a 6 i think but everything else was a 10

Pinnochio and Robin Hood are the others ive enjoyed the most and Jungle Book the least and Alice in Wonderland being the most surprising that I didnt give a really high score except for the performance by the guy playing the mad hatter.

overall ive been pretty surprised by how poorly the classic animated disney movies have held up for me

I believe Studio Ghibli did the animated Earthsea movie, but Miyazaki's son was at the helm. Also, last I knew, his latest movie Ponyo will be the last Ghibli movie done by Miyazaki.

[Choclit Sunrize]

So many of these already listed are my faves. Here's one I haven't seen listed yet...

Due to his sister's death, the 32 year old August returns and consequently abandons his profession as a missionary priest. His beloved sister Christina, who went from greatness to decay as the famous porn-star The Princess, is dead after years of drug abuse. She leaves behind her 5-year old daughter Mia, whom August feels obliged to take care of. Weighed down by grief and guilt he decides to revenge the dead of Christina - and takes Mia on a mission to destroy all existing pornographic material featuring The Princess. The mission escalates into a brutal and violent rout, where August is desperately trying to protect the only precious thing in his life, Mia, why he is forced to make a fatal decision.

[Natas]

am i the only one who thinks these all look like shite except for Transformers?

[Necrometer]

Minus the trash-planet-bots, the Transformers movie is pretty fucking awesome. Seriously hoping Michael Bay tricks me into seeing another one of his movies by putting Unicron in #3...

[Comrade Slinky]

[Iron Goldie]

YOU'VE GOT THE TOUCH
YOU'VE GOT THE POWAH
YEEEAAAHHHH

That movie blew my mind as a kid. Characters dying, people in an animated movie swearing....

Anyway, I nominate Wall-E for this thread.

hell yeah, all that plus seeing it on the big screen was a hell of an experience. I'll never forget when Optimus said "damn"

[Natas]

btw, didn't it ever seem weird to you how the trailer was never there when he started transforming, and when he transformed back into a robot it would disappear again? we know Slinky didn't think about it cause he was sucking his thumb to the fox and the hound at the time...
