Top FIVE Animated Movies
« on: November 02, 2008, 07:02:39 AM »
So we have an animated series thread, it's about time to start an animated movie thread. We'll keep it confined to Japanese animated film so we don't run off into too many different directions.

At this point, my top would probably be

End of Evangelion
Tekkon Kinkreet
Paprika
Byousoku 5 Centimeter
Interstella 5555

In no particular order,

Perfect Blue, directed by Satoshi Kon
The Place Promised in Our Early Days, directed by Makoto Shinkai
Digimon Adventure Movie, directed by Mamoru Hosada (this one)
Princess Mononoke, directed by Hayao Miyazaki
End of Evangelion, directed by Hideaki Anno


So that's one film from my top film from each of my top five directors. I like the whole body of work of each of these five men. Except Mamoru Hosada, who only has two films in his repertoire (Digimon Adventure Movie and Toki wo Kakeru Shoujo).

Of Mamoru Oshii's body of work, I have only seen Ghost in the Shell so I don't have him on that list...


Oh, and yeah I haven't seen the classics like Akira or Metropolis yet. Or Lupin III. A sin I'm sure.
