the descent is a proper good film, i enjoyed it a lot.

I totally loved it, it got me right in the chest cavity.

Now for the other two OVAs, then I imagine I'll stave off starting on Zeta until my exams are over, and I promised a friend I'd watch Eureka 7 soon.

You promised Nikki, and you're telling me she suffered through NGE and you have yet to watch E7!?

Already apologized to her about it, fuck off grasshopper.

Plan on checking out Guardian of the Spirit too?

NGE is trash. Utter trash.

SCANDALOUS WENCH!

I shall -rep into OBLIVION!

Alcar...

A weabo that hates NGE?
Ghost is now officially on my good side.

Meh, just counteracts her mecha chubby. I need moar.

It's just a bunch of emo false-introspective bullcrap and otaku fanbait wrapped in Christian estoricism and held together by mecha fights.

Just what I enjoy.

Alcar...

That's great, but I can't stand it.

If you want a good Gainax show, you hit up Gunbuster or Gurren Lagann.

Gurren Lagann was some kind of amazing.

NGE was totally my favourite anime, next to Lain.

That's nice kiddo

I'm ill (maybe I got swine flu, who knows :fuzsmile:) so I decided to watch some films. I just seen " I Know What You Did Last Summer ". That was 97 minutes of my life I won't get back. About 4 times I thought I died and I'm in hell. That was so boring movie that I almost fall asleep in middle of movie. My eyes started bleeding and I thought I s**t myself. When I saw it on my friend disk I thought "It might be good film, why don't I give it a try". I was wrong and now I'm so pissed. I felt, that I have to share my feelings with somebody so I'm whining here. I think I'm going to delete it from my friend disk to save the rest of humanity. Seriously, if you didn't seen this film yet, don't watch it, or I'm going to fkn kill you (It's possible you will die during watching anyway). If you liked this film, then go behind corner, slap yourself, and come back.

Execuse me, but I had to say it. I think I feel better now

It isn't the best anime I've watched, that'd be Lain or FLCL, but it's my favourite.

EVERYONE IS ALLOWED TO HAVE FAVOURITES STOP JUDGING ME OR I WILL CRY ;_______;

*judges you*

Meh... I don't think it was that horrible... Although Eureka 7 is still the best thing EVAR! =D

Agreed.
Everyone else I've talked to who has seen it doesn't see the appeal. Of course, they also haven't seen the whole show, so they have little appreciation for all of the metaphors and political messages that come about later in the series.

Lain > Eureka 7 + NGE

(i haven't seen either of the ones that aren't Lain and I don't need to)

See, I'd put Dennou Coil above all three of those.

Guardian of the Spirit.......anyone?

Yeah but you're a huge weeaboo.

No, then I'd put Haruhi there.

Dennou Coil is very very good and very cerebral but also fun. It's one of those "Makes you think" shows.

Lain is good, but as someone who's seen both, I still prefer E7.

Using that term kinda makes this statement true:

1408 on TV afew minutes ago, but I had already seen it last year.That film absurdly upsets my mind and gives me a weird sensation of inner stillness.

I found the scene with the noose pretty damn funny.
"Please use our express check-out system"

Yeah, "Please, GO HANG YOURSELF"!!! XD

I found 1408 to be a complete wank of shite.

I liked it... I don't think I found it scary though. I don't remember. But I felt bad for that guy.. And that room was very evil!! And mean.

Nyoro~n

La Haine (aka "Hate"). Very powerful and very true to what goes on in European suburbs. One of the best foreign films I have seen.

I saw 1408 on TV a few weeks ago and I must say I did like the story, though just having to start from scratch after the hour has passed was kind of a bummer, and I would have liked to have some background about why the room became evil or whatever, but a good movie non the less.

It was more of a "what" than a "why" film. Like Samuel L. Jackson said, "It's just an evil fucking room". :p

I liked that :p It was explanation enough for me... And I sort of feel like it makes the film cooler...

Sort of tired of the ghost/horror/haunted movies where the reason for the haunt is some sort of stretched out, long-drawn, melodramatic reason.

I like that in this film the room is just evil, and that's about it.

EDIT: Oh and I like the fact the the room had a sense of humor...

I sort of got that feeling at the end of Grudge 2 and Darkness. To know that an elusive and unstoppable evil has just been unleashed on the whole world.

But it did have a dramatic/sad story to it <.<

Darkess, yes, sort of.

Grudge 2, meh. Just felt like it was milking the intensity of the first Grudge.

I saw Knowing yesterday. I didn't hate it. It kept me interested.

I also saw Outlander. Which is basically Beowulf meets Alien, but not as good at all. I wish he got his gun back. I really do.

I liked Ron Perlman and Jon Hurt, though.

And that is was Stephen King is the greatest writer of all time.
