I'd say it's probably real, they have websites and everything if you look at the end of the trailer.

My guess it's probably a fairly obscure production, that isn't terribly close to being completed yet, and IMDb will get it eventually, when more info is available.

Ah, missed those. Thanks for pointing that out.

I'm going to watch some Anime today. I'm thinking I'll start off with Howl's Moving Castle, and see what that movie's like.

It's typical of his stuff. If you loved Spirited Away, you'll like it. It kinda sticks to the book, but that doesn't mean the feel is anything like it. Trippy, whimsical, but with a beautiful sense of melancholy that permeates his stuff (for me at least; I'm always sad at the end of his movies).

^ I'm always sad at the end of his movies too. He just has this knack for making everything so beautiful.

Come watch it with me WAIF

I'd love to.

I've watched Mononoke so many times...fucking love that movie. And Spirited away and stuff. Ftw,


And of course since we're talking anime I'll throw out my typical Ghost in the Shell rec, that movie owns.

what's great is watching Persona and seeing how all of the clones that have followed it have just failed to match the power of it

Such an excellent movie and I'm not even that big a Bergman fan (with the exception of Wild Strawberries, which I also love)

We shall have to have an anime night as well as FF night then .

I watched Howl's moving castle, and it actually made me snivel a little! I am becoming so weak . But in all seriousness, it was a fantastic movie, like his others.

Has anyone seen Grave of the fireflies. Greatest Japanes movie I have ever seen.

Just watched Batman: The Movie, holy fucking shit this is probably one of the (if not THE) best cheesy movies of all time. Seriously fucking awesome, Adam West is THE best batman ever, hands down.

If you liked that you have to see this. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0321359/
Seriously its a great movie if you have very wierd sense of humor.
