Sleeveless posted:The Cartoon Network execs never put more than a season or two of a show up on Netflix because they were really anti-streaming, which is coming from a network whose biggest hit only exists because the pilot went viral. Cartoon Network and Adult Swim are two separate networks, from executive leadership all on down. They just share a channel. Adult Swim even has (had?) adult swim gold for streaming long, long ago.

If you plan to watch only one episode of Lip Sync Battle this year, tonight is Mike Tyson vs. Terry Crews, so it's as good an episode as any.

if we're talking about moving shows to ADTRW why not Banshee it's pretty much an 80s/90s OVA made live-action and it'd be nice to see that thread active between seasons

Yeah, not quite complete yet, but I'm sure it's all eventually coming. The remasters have all been done since mid 2014. Hopefully this means a blu-ray box set is coming soon. Yeah, it does look great.

Sober posted:"Except anime, which is not anime. It's Japanimation!" Hey, let's play nice with the anime folks. I know the fans are usually focused on crap like Dragon balls, but some of the studios, like Ghibli occasionally make good films. I like to keep a copy of Grave of the Fireflies handy for who complain about anime being too childish.

Grave of the Fireflies is like the most emotionally manipulative movie ever made. The end is basically just the director poking your tear ducts with a stick screaming at you to cry.

The difference between the story and real life is that the guy lived in real life, so he wrote a story in which he died because of his horrible horrible guilt. e: I mean you really don't get a stronger message than changing the story of your life to include you dying slowly and in a great deal of pain, do you?

Putting aside the fact that the movie asks you to sympathize with nazis and war criminals, there are plenty of depressing World War II movies that aren't cartoons about children.

What? Grave of the Firefly doesn't ask us to sympathize with war criminals. It's about a couple of Japanese kids who were poo poo on by WWII. You totally haven't seen that movie.

Is there a thread anywhere on the forums about the Comcast/TWC merger? I'm not sure where else best to put this (I checked D&D and TVIV for a thread, didn't find one), so for lack of finding a better place I'll put this here. Comcast Confirms End of Deal With Time Warner Cable quote:Comcast confirmed Friday that it had called off its $45 billion takeover of Time Warner Cable, aborting its plans to create a truly national cable company with unprecedented control over the future of the country’s television and broadband markets.

Grave of the Fireflies is a good rear end movie but if you don't think it's emotionally manipulative as hell, you're only kidding yourself. It's not about the story- it's about the way the movie presents the story.
