Hey guys, morbidly curious about Fifty Shades of Grey , the infamous Twilight fanfic turned global female masturbation aide? Don't read the book, listen to me read the first chapter and give your clit friction burn today. Funniest (and most arousing) bike ride this summer, thanks so muc...

Some stuff I watched over the weekend: Hadashi no Gen (1983) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v428/KenshinSephiroth/HadashinoGen.jpg Although I knew going in that this WWII drama would have the bombing of Hiroshima as its centerpiece, it pulled off the impressive feat of making its characte...

Xardie, I do wish the writers of The Cat Returns'd been as observant as you when conceiving their project. xD It's funny how this argument was spawned when we both hold the same basic opinion of the movie overall. While definitely one of Ghibli's poorer works, it isn't exactly "bad"; like ...

Junji Ito is the man , and his three-volumed Uzumaki refuses to loosen its crushing grip on my brain. Simply a superb mix between body horror and psychological derangements inflicted on his poor unsuspecting characters; the books comprise what are essentially short stories set in an isolated fishin...

@Oz: Dunno if you're mocking my line of thought or the "scatch" error, but given that I rarely recheck spelling on forum posts (probably due to tiredness from work), I don't give much of a damn unless it's the former. Even if so, I'm not a Dadaist. Sue me.

Questions of why there are portals and how do they work are also completely irrelevant for telling the story and as such should be excised. Why, should've Obi-Wan Kenobi given detailed explanation how lightsaber work or Gandalf why One Ring turns its bearer invisible? I understand that such len...

Now go straight to the movie for Hitomi going all Shinji-mode and of course for superior Dilandau. http://i.imgur.com/gJaMB.jpg And not only is the film as coldhearted and apathetic toward the pain of people as that deranged Aaron Carter clone run amuck, but after gleefully letting him and Van demo...

Thanks, Mr. Tines. A potentially upended bizarro narrative cultivated from my ignorance of the series isn't necessarily a deal breaker, or even a detriment. If anything, it'll make the movie more interesting to watch. I'm still a bit concerned about spoilers, though. Any significant TV t...

I'm frankly pretty shocked at how good Escaflowne TV is turning out to be. This is well-paced and consistently entertaining science fantasy that doesn't hesitate to get goofy when it needs to or serious when it should. I can't recall a single filler scene standing out to me so far... eve...

Question: is it possible for a person with zero insight into the Utena franchise to enjoy the movie as a self-contained standalone viewing experience, or is at least some knowledge of the series's story required for the film's narrative to make proper sense? Also, does the movie spoil the en...

The Cat Returns (2002) Good things about this movie: it is cute, playful, and has some wonderful moments of character interaction. The scene where the lantern-carrying throng of cats march down the street to Haru's household to honor her with the cat king's audience was truly magica...

Had reservations going into "Interstella5555: The 5tory of The 5ecret 5tar 5ystem", but this movie was just pure, uncut awesomeness. Although the film is essentially one long music video, I never found myself bored, and the story was surprisingly sweet and poignant as well. This must have ...
