Does anyone here remember The Head?

Watched this yesterday and - as I had expected - enjoyed it a lot:

R.I.P. Stephen Hillenburg.

The first two and a half seasons of Spongebob will always be close to my heart. RIP.

 

[Carpe Mortem]

I came here to spread my grief to further reaches. A truly terrible thing.

 

[Burkhard]

Looking forward to seeing this one:

Love this art style.

Watched "The Watchmen" the other day (in case anyone was wondering who watches the watchmen) and as director's cut it included this animation.

Any recommendations for similar? Not just the drawing style but general color tone and subject matter.

 

[CiG]

Have you seen Fire & Ice from '83?

 

[Carpe Mortem]

I have, he's the rotoscoping master. Another favorite animation style.

 

[CiG]

That's about the closest thing I could think of to your gif up there, sorry dude.

Entertaining short movie:

So I know I'm 20 years late to this party with this but DAMN. This show can be really hard to watch sometimes between the filler and the glacial pacing and the awful comedic skits but god damn when it's on it's on.

That said the video in this youtube looks fucking awful compared to the DVD release I have, holy shit did they fuck up the bluray release.

 

[CiG]

I love the animation and visuals in Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence, even the CGI has grown on me. @Einherjar86 you really should check this movie out at some point.

[no country for old wainds]

i've always wanted to check that out too. i remember chaw giving that one a rave review back in the day.

 

[CiG]

I'll happily co-sign a rave review of it, definitely highly recommended on my part.

Kemurikusa is saving anime. Long live 3DCG.

 

[CiG]

Your most disgustingly contrarian opinion yet.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

It's one of the most successful shows in Japan right now, following on heels of savior-of-anime-Tatsuki's 3DCG mega hit Kemono Friends.

 

[CiG]

Probably sucks balls.
