This definitely has an ideal vibe of 1st time watch on a ratty couch in a basement somewhere stoned or drunk.

(2) … don’t expect a lot of depth, just carnal pleasures. What separates Heavy Metal from similar films like Fire and Ice is the heavy use of irreverent humour. The film is best when silliest, and gets sillier as it goes on.

Recommending a full year of animated movies, day 114. My 191st best animated film is Heavy Metal. Mature is a loaded word. To some it means sex and violence. Heavy Metal had that, mostly in a leering way, but it is gleefully immature. Short stories with strong links to fantasy, horror and sci fi…

That some of those crappy AI fan made Doomsday “leaks“ are convincing for a bit says a lot about the current state of marvel movies.

(2) I actually think it will be better with repeat viewing, without the weight of expectations. I see many fans enjoyed it more than I did. It’s a gentleman’s 7.

Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender is pretty good. You wish it was better considering how seminal the original series was, but it’s a little too serious with a dull one dimensional villain. It’s still very well animated and enjoyable...

Depends how much you are bothered by fan service (very sexually drawn female characters)

(4) ... by critics as the best Lupin film It is my 2nd favourite. search out Miyazaki's work on the tv version of Lupin, especially Part II (1980), where he directed episode 145 ("Albatross, the Wings of Death") and episode 155 ("Farewell, My Beloved Lupin") under the pseudonym Tereki Telecom

(3) (This newer softer Lupin was initially rejected by the fans, and especially creator Monkey Punch himself. He said he wouldn't have had Lupin fall in love, but instead sexually assault the love interest. (It's best not to do too much research into Monkey Punch). Still, this is often cited...

My favorite Kon.

It's more odd than scary to watch as an adult. It was definitely scary as a kid.

(2) … to get a sense of what Miyazaki brought to Lupin watch Mystery of Momo before it, made with a similar budget and timeline. Its also a great film to introduce Lupin to older kids.

Recommending a full year of animated movies, day 113. My 73rd best animated film is Castle of Cagliostro. The fates have chosen to Miyazakis in a row. Early Miyazaki is a lot more elastic and cartoonish than his later work. He takes Lupin and softens the edgier aspects while keeping the spy fun.…

(2) … When I first saw it it was the clamshell VHS version which only had the English du, which changed many things, but I have a soft spot for it. As an artist this has been a very meaningful film for me.

Recommending a full year of animated movies, day 112. My 20th best animated film is Kiki‘s Delivery Service. A perfect film about burnout and community. It’s a movie I always undervalue until I am watching it. By now I’ve seen it so many times it’s my ultimate comfort film...

(2) … film, skip to the Satan section around 40 minutes in. Quite a lot of nightmare fuel in there for the kids. It’s a wild and fun ride. Will Vinton studios would soon change their name to Laika.

The Adventures of Mark Twain is one of the strangest blank check movies in animation history. After making it big with the California Raisons, Will Vinton would use the profits to create this epic claymation film. If you want to watch the strangest scene in this children’s … youtu.be/HKU5cxq7xUs?...

(2) … Metaphorically connecting the fairy tale image of the wolf with a Chilean cult and a girl who escapes them, the Wolf House sometimes feels oppressive in its repetitive imagery, but its all in service of a completely unique mood. A stunning accomplishment.

Recommending a full year of animated movies, day 111. My 82nd best animated film is The Wolf House. A film mostly about its tone, less about its narrative structure than its politically charged sense of dread. It’s complete poetry in the best way.…https://youtu.be/SP8MPgWI7Pc

(2) … It takes its time setting up the story and children may struggle to get through the slow first act, but once the story builds and the adventures begin they (and you) will be invested A movie with a lot of heart and unforgettable imagery.
