miss april Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 Okey, I would like to know how many anime series and movies were played in every country. So I remember that I like the Hunter X Hunter OAV but I couldn't finish the OAV becoz of the network... So what was yours?! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChibiHorsewoman Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 [color=darkviolet]For some reason the SailorMoonS movie always sticks in my head along with parts of the SailorMoonSs movie. I think it may be the quote by SailorNEptune from the 3rd movie though for reasoning why such a bad movie sticks with me. Because Neptune makes a comment about how there are some things that only adults can enjoy.. Of course, SailorMoonS is a stand out because the movie was also covered in the eleventh issue of the SailorMoon manga. Meaning that Naoko wrote it herself. It's just such a cute romantic movie at the end. It has one of my favorite anime songs in it too: Moon Light Destiney. Then of course there's the Ranma 1/2 movie (I can't remember the name) where Akane is kidnapped and they have to go after her. But I think the best part of that movie is the opening where Happosai grabs a bra from someone's clotheline and goes: 'A brassier A brassier!' I also like how when Mr. Saotome is a panda he keeps holding up signs like 'It's national be kind to animals week. You'll have to excuse me a bit on the Ranma1/2 movie, I haven't seen it in a while. I also liked Spirited Away, It was the last movie I watched with Lincoln before I went back to NY and he went to Iraq. The father in the movie reminded me of my dad. Especialy the line where he says: Don't worry, I have four wheel drive! I should probably go watch it again to give a better opinion. Well, there you have it a brief veiw of three or four of my favorite anime movies.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Warrior Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 Princess Mononoke, hands down. Though I've seen very few anime films, this is by far a masterpiece. The art, the story, the whole thing is amazing. The creatures are amazing and the world feels real enough to play in :D To say for my least fave that I've seen... Akira. I did not like it. Freakin' messed up, that's what that is. A real tatty-too movie, aye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor Ganymede Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 I haven't seen much anime movies YET, unless you count the Digimon movie and the first 3 Pokemon movies. I saw Spirited Away (Sen to Chihiro), and it was cool. Weird, but cool. so out of all the these, my fav so far is the Digimon movie. (I am so childish, huh? ^^v) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiroMunkie Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 [size=1]The only anime movie I have ever really sat down and watched is [i]Spirited Away[/i]. I know I have seen [i]Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust[/i] as well, but I was not paying to much attention to it. From what I saw of both, however, I enjoyed [i]Spirited Away[/i] more. I liked the simple fact that it was different from just another story about vampires -- not to sell [i]Bloodlust[/i] short or anything, for it was pretty good from what I saw. The various kinds of creatures made, the movements, plot, story development ... I found all to be very unique, in a way I am not used to seeing.[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okita Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 Suprisingly my favourite is a Oshii film and not Miyazaki as I would have expected of myself. Jin Roh (aka wolf brigade) is without a doubt the most amazingly crafted movie and literary adaptation I've seen to date, the amount of thought that went into the making of the dialogue and actions where amazing, it had just enough action get you hooked and a great plot that is deep and require thoughts and an aboslutely awesome climax that left me breathless. Ending is the only debatable point for me for this anime, while I love the way it ended, I can clearly see how many people might hate this approach, it's tragically beautiful and strangely fitting. Other movie that I love include, Nausicaa (a true classic) Mononoke Hime, Akira (the anime that started mainstream american awareness) and Voice of a distant star (extreme kudo to the director and his wife, for making their animated dream a garage-made reality!).

Shi no Tenshi Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 Spirited Away. No comment really, I just liked it, it was sweet and innocent yet perverted and morbid in so many ways. I've seen quite a few anime films, but this one struck out - damn my obsession with 'Alice in Wonderland' type scenarios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonessFei Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 My favorite anime movie is Spirited Away, hands down. I love how the movie is very inventive and the animation is excellent! I really loved the characters too. (Haku is my personal favorite) Princess Mononoke is a close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solo Tremaine Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 [COLOR=#503F86]I'd read the thread and find out, heh. Or check the Threads Directory at the top of the page to see what might interest you. if I recommended one anime movie for people who liked Dragonball, I'd say either Akira or Princess Mononoke, but they're both very different. It depends what your tastes are. But this isn't a recommendations thread, really- it's for movie discussion. Browse around and see what takes your fancy. Try and make your posts a bit longer in future, please natetron46, and use capital letters wherever you can.

r2vq Posted July 6, 2004 Share Posted July 6, 2004 As I've mentioned in other threads, I loved the movie [i]Tokyo Godfathers[/i]. It's definately not in the style of most Anime out there (Cartoon Network-only fans wont like it, and dubbies will find it a different taste from what they're used to) but it is nonetheless amazing in every aspect. The story is compellingly funny; the characters are intriguingly hillarious; and the animation is just plain [i]awesome[/i]. The setting and the story is so believable, you can't help but feel for the people out in the streets today. Basically, the movie follows three homeless people as they find a child and try to return her to the rightful parents. There is so much detail put into the feeling and setting, it's impossible not to feel for the poor characters. Although the animation is at times zany to reflect the mood, this is one of the most realistic videos I have ever seen. If anyone wants to watch a [i]true[/i] anime, watch Tokyo Godfathers. -ArV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hikari no Yugi Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 ah, tough choice. for me, it's a tie between Spirited Away and the 2nd CCS movie^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natetron46 Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Ok as I said before, ive seen Princess Mononoke. I am very interested in reading some of the mangas but they are in french...so i dont have much luck there. Are there any movies that are like that mangas in story and animation?

Trigun 11 Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 I love Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away. Miyazaki just has a way with capturing imagination. Even though my first 'anime' movie was Artimage III : Polymatrix. Now THAT was a good movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Shears Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 Tokyo Godfathers was hysterical, but the most standout was Akira. I rank it not just on an anime scale but as one of my top favorite moves I've seen. Plus, the capsule on Kaneda's coat is the shizz-nittle-shiz-bang-shnap (to quote Dave Chapelle ;) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacy_Tramer Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 [FONT=Arial Narrow][COLOR=DarkOrchid]Yes, Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away were both excellent movies. However, I really like the first Tenchi movie (I believe it was... Tenchi Muyo in Love, which doesn't suit the movie at all, actually) and the Digimon Movie: Our War Games. Yes. I like Digimon. Shut up. >>;; Kiki's Delivery Service was really cute, also.[/COLOR][/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natetron46 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 i really like princess mononoke myself actually. probably the first anime ive ever seen and still the best. i love the stone arrows that take off guys heads. i also liked hearing the english dub with billy bob thorton in it haha what a role for him! ashitaka is definately my favorite character, who else :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nut Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 [COLOR=DarkRed]My favorite anime movie ...well I have two! I loved Spirited Away, I thought it was so weird but it made it fun to watch. the second movie that I absolutely love is Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust! It is the best movie, I recommend it to everyone![/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiro_Ryuu Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I saw Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust and I think that it was very awesome. D is one of the coolest characters ever, and it had great animation. I also like vampires and those kind of things. I totally recommend this movie. I also like Rurouni Kenshin Trust and Betrayal OVA. I thought that it also had really good animation.
