I is LOLing at your sig.
I totally knew that it was only a matter of time. ^^;
Thanks for cuddling with me. I feel better now.
Amazing, I had no idea it was that old.
Good talking to a fellow fan, generally when I start ranting about films (especially animations) everyone starts edging away.
Ooh never heard of it, googling it now. You can't get hold of it as an import or something?
Spirited Away is an incredible film, although its become one of those films people name drop so I'm always hesitant about mentioning it. Again the quality of the art is so amazing, at times you get so drawn in you forget you're watching a cartoon, no mean feat. The depth of the world and characters is also brilliant, there are plenty of amazing looking animations that feel about as deep as a kiddies paddling pool.
Yeah I wasn't far from them. I didn't find it depressing as such, partly it put me in touch with what people in japan must have gone through which isn't something we ever really learn about in England. My grandfather was in Burma during the war and had alot of contact with the Japanese who are always potrayed as pure evil, perhaps with some truth, but often the entire population of a country get painted with the same brush. Somehow Grave of the Fireflies really made me see past all that crap in a way I hadn't before. At the same time it wasn't activley anti-american like quite a few other Japanese war films. Politically and morally it seemed perfect.
Besides the messages in the film I think the arts fantastic as well, I'm not a huge fan of japanese animation but this one really stood out on that count, even amongst other Studio Ghibli films.
Just noticed your sig, 'Grave of the Fireflies' is my favourite animation ever, I've lost count of the number of times I've watched it.
I never thought I'd feel genuinely moved by a film untill I saw that one.
