anyhow to keep in the spirit of the thread i looked thru the upcoming spring stuff and Edomae Elf & Kawaisugi Crisis caught my eye+Rokudo's Bad Girls seeming generic as hell but with a dope style so maybe. might binge Birdie Wing in time for s2 too, dunno

i watched detective pikachu out of morbid curiosity with zero expectations and it was just an okay summer movie that felt a little half-baked in spots. i honestly expected a lot worse.

quote:In Genesect and the Legend Awakened, Mewtwo was having a flying race with several bird Pokémon, and went on to challenge its own powers by Mega Evolving and speeding as high as it could go, until it reached the edge of space. Feeling that it could not stay at this hostile environment, it let itself fall down, until it heard a telepathic voice, asking to get back home. It went towards the source of the voice, and found the Genesect Army at a snowy mountain area. an AI made this loving movie

FilthyImp posted:I mean, The Land Before Time went from a coming of age story about finding community through hardship to...The Land Before Time: Littlefoot's Dad Comes Home From Buying Milk. In the tenth movie, a big part of the plot is the dinosaurs think the sun is going to fall out of the sky, which is actually a solar eclipse, and the climax has all the long necks stretching out their necks to push the sun back into the sky, but the viewers know what an eclipse is and that there are actually no stakes but the scene is still presented as if there are.

the dinosaurs don't know what an eclipse is, therefore the stakes are relative. topic locked

With Land Before Time I was scrunched waaaaay back because everything going on was just so grand. Honestly, that same wonder is probably why I gravitated to more anime films as they became available. I watch a lot of trash because hey life sucks, but something like Grave of the Fireflies is a film-viewing experience that stays with you.

the first movie rules it explains so much about it that the writer deliberately wrote it during the porygon controversy because he knew that was an open window to write whatever he wanted, and also he heard mewtwo's va was going to be the same guy who was famous in japan for voicing the phantom of the opera so he literally just wrote mewtwo as the phantom of the opera and the va read a few lines of the script, turned to him and said "this guy is the phantom of the opera." and the writer nodded with a grin

honestly mewtwo strikes back might be like. the rare case where production issues actually helped it. cause it was meant to follow up an episode of the anime where ash would actually meet and fight mewtwo, but since that never happened it got rewritten to be about mewtwo's anger at humanity for creating him. which ends up being a way weirder and cooler motivation and makes the whole movie more interesting for how ash isn't even that important for most of it and only becomes important because of how hard he throws himself into the main conflict

Watching a whole generation have their own Artax moment was something else.

I'm honestly more wondering how they're going to replace Jessie and James, the true heart of the show.

I remember the whole point of The Land Before Time is that it's taking place while the Dinosaurs are going extinct and the world is dying and unable to support life, and thus the cast is on a big epic quest to make it to essentially the Hidden Dino-Promised land where they won't go extinct (And then parents can lean over to their kids and tell them this means maybe they can find this hidden valley and be friends with the totally still alive Dinos). Then in the sequels everything is fine. The world outside the valley is perfectly fine. They go outside it all the time and there are plants and everything.

I had no idea Insomniacs was this season - the manga is great, so hopefully the show is a good adaptation, though I probably won't watch it just because I have a pretty good idea where it will stop and the manga scans are much further along. Looking forward to Skip and Loafer as well.

First Movie dubbed is a(n only slightly cringy) nostalgia classic, 2000 blows. Pootybutt fucked around with this message at 13:44 on Mar 13, 2023 |

i think lucario and the mystery of mew is pretty good. i wouldn't exactly call it 'underrated' because it's one of the only ones after the first ~3 that people mention positively ever but i think it's significantly better than those, so it deserves it

Tree Goat posted:the concept of “two people who are clearly both in love with each other and spend all of their time together but never work up the courage/self-actualization/articulation to actually date” is of course a precarious one to hang at the center of a long-running series. progress is both required (to move things along/develop characters/stave off frustration or impatience) but also is by no means allowed (since it will unravel the central conceit if allowed to progress too far). status quo must be restored, undermined by some new misunderstanding or accident, or, at least, this new understanding must be tacit but never foregrounded.

I would unironically watch a show where the oblivious everyman MC-kun gets harassed by the imaginary voice of a cockteasing love interest into start a revolution.

I thought that was a pretty clear ending, but apparently To Your Eternity is getting a third season.
