I finally got to see Appleseed<\/a> last night (Thanks, Jason<\/a>!). The whole time I felt like I was watching a hybrid anime of the original Ghost in the Shell<\/a>, The Matrix<\/a> and Robotech<\/a>. I didn’t quite enjoy it as much as I thought I would. I think I enjoyed Ghost in the Sell 2<\/a> more than I did Appleseed mainly because of the quality of graphics in Ghost in the Shell 2 (I had trouble following the subtitle while comprehending the rather complicated issues the movie was dealing with). <\/p>\n

Nontheless, Appleseed was a pretty cool movie with decent plot lines. I wished the motion capture was more “anime-like”. A lot of it looked “captured” and almost too realistic for the anime-feel of the movie. Jason mentioned something about the toon shade renderer used in the movie, but I didn’t notice anything aweful, just some bad hue choices in a few scenes.<\/p>\n

A few days ago I also saw Howl’s Moving Castle<\/a> with Grace. I think Hayao Miyazaki<\/a> definitely makes Grace chuckle more than most of the anime directors I like. As much as she enjoyed Howl’s Moving Castle, I think she still prefers Spirited Away<\/a> and, of course, Totoro<\/a>. I hope that guy never dies and keeps making more films.<\/p>\n

Now I gotta watch Steamboy<\/a> to satisfy my 2005 anime wishes. Damn it I wish I had money then I can just buy them! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
