I’m not much of an anime person (and maybe this movie gives that away), but Spirited Away is so magical. Just everything about it is so detailed, I’m entranced every time.
Where is the line between anime and just Japanese cartoons? Is there a difference, or are they interchangeable. I’m not an anime guy either, but Hayao Miyazaki’s films are magical. Have you watched My Neighbor Totoro yet?
So there’s several high caliber films I’ve seen a bunch, like Pulp Fiction, Memento, etc… but I think the actual movie I’ve seen the most times is The Room.
For the uninitiated, The Room is the worst movie of all time. Tommy Wiseau wrote, produced, directed, and starred in this disasterpiece. It’s so bad, they made a movie about the book about the making of The Room. It’s like watching a train wreck in slow motion for 90 minutes.
I’ve been responsible for many people’s first viewings, which means I’ve seen it far, far more than I should. I almost got to meet Tommy and Greg (plays Tommy’s best friend in film) at a screening but icy ass rain made the trek too dangerous.
I’d say it’s a must see for anyone who enjoys film. Every other movie will feel better after comparing it to this flaming bag of garbage. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll say “wtf” at least 7 times.
Oh snap, that would be fun to rip through! Read the book a while back and had a proper hoot with it. Dude has so many stories after bombing around with ol’ Tommy
It’s just endlessly quotable, on top of being an absolute delight to watch! I still sneak in a few phrases from the movie in daily life, such as “negative, I am a meat popsicle” and “Aziz, light!”
Leaves everything behind to become this great lawyer but when the unfortunate happens he has to go back and come to terms with what he thought was once lost.
Not sure why I keep watching it but I do enjoy how it develops.
