I will say this once
Do your self a favor and see Spirited Away.  It is without a doubt the best animated film I've ever seen, and is easily in the top ten best movies I've ever seen.

It's the kind of movie that after it's over you sit there and are disgusted with the low brow, inane crap on the television.

Beware however.  It is over two hours in length.

But you MUST see this film.  Perfect 6 out of 5 stars.
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

heh? Spirited Away is excellent, no doubt, but it's still not even the best movie from Ghibli. Try Laputa or Nausicaa :P

nope, didn't have them on video tape, and my friend wasn't willing to switch to the PC screen at 8 AM :P ( that said, watching Dead right after the seires would have been kinda boring :doubt: )
Ant Thunder, we'd done worst ( The Mysterious Cities of Gold, 34 episodes :D ) but i picked up an exemple everybody might know :)

Yep, Spirited Away was a real blast, saw it in the movies and it was awesome as Miyazaki films usually are. But IMHO Mononoke Hime still holds the title of "Best Animated Film" in my list (Lion King comes second with many others including Spirited Away :) )

The fat mouse and small bird were a great comedy :D
But overall there were many unique creatures and that made the film really rich.

GO AND SEE IT! :thepimp:
Habeeb it...

i dunno... usually here the better a movie is, the longer they keep it in theaters.  for example, Lord of the Rings will stay out till early June, but movies like Spirited Away that don't make much money, will be in theaters for two weeks if its lucky.  it's already on DVD, and it just came out.

no... it's the more 'popular´it is, the longer it stays on theaters. Quality has got nothing to do with this.

Look at Freespace.

note: usually :D ;)

Also, i think Titanic got what it deserved, i mean, it has to have been the biggest scale movie ever made.  the sheer manpower that went into making the movie was incredible... building a ship the ACTUAL SIZE of the original Titanic?  That's just incredible.  also, the story may have been pathetic, but the acting, and some of the scenes (like in the engine room, the ship sinking, etc.) was awesome, you have to admit.
