Michel Ancel has cited Grave of the Fireflies as an influence.

And here:

He says it around 1:40.

I’ve grown hostile towards anime due to all the weeaboos I’ve been exposed to on the internet over the years, but I guess I’ll just have to watch this.

It's not very 'anime', even when compared to other Miyazaki films, so you shouldn't frown. It WILL sap away any hope in humanity you might have, though.

[DesLife]

Does spiral have any hope in humanity ? I wonder.

[Jewish Candy]

That's a good point but there must be something holding him together...
On second thoughts, Spiral, don't watch it. For your own health.

I've already seen 2 films of Ghibli Studios (Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle) and both are a masterpiece. People who saw it know what I mean. Knowing that the Grave of the Fireflies is from the same studio, I believe it is also epical.

I watched The Mist last night. It was great – much better than the book. Especially that ending...

[GlueTube365]

I just watched Gremlins. It may be a little scary for a Christmas movie, but I love it all the same!

[MrBadGuy]

Speaking of christmas movies, watched Die Hard again the other day, still good

[El Dango]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 1. I think it's alot better than the last movie, and it was a good idea to split it into two parts so they didn't have to cut most of the good stuff out. The animated part with the fairytale about the three brothers was very well done.

Also, seems like the Warner Bros. logo has become so rusty it has started to fall apart.

Good movie. ^^

You already watched it? I would watch it but I still didn't watch the 6th movie. I need to get the DVD when I go to FNAC one day.

[MrBadGuy]

I forgot about Harry Potter, I watched it a couple of fridays ago, it's recommended

[Tenderz]

Watched Scott Pilgrim vs The World, witch was incredibly fun to watch

[spiraldoor]

I was trying to watch Blade Runner last night, but I fell asleep before it was over. I’ll have to try again tonight. This is the first time such a thing has ever happened to me – I normally border on insomnia – but then again, I had already been up for fifteen hours by the time I started watching, and earlier that day I had participated in a truly epic snowball fight with approximately 400–450 other students, and from which my muscles are still aching.

[DesLife]

Well you have to try again indeed because this is truly a great movie. Have you read the book ?

[spiraldoor]

I haven’t, but I’m aware that they are very different works.

[DesLife]

They're also both masterpieces.

[MLII]

Very very sorry for the bump but...

Okay Domi has a confession to make.

WARNING CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR 9 IF YOU PLAN TO SEE 9 DO NOT READ ON

Well, when I've been going on about 9 all this time...well, tbh I hadn't actually seen it yet. I just watched it today with my mom and my brother...

FRIGGING AWESOME. That was a frigging awesome movie.

It had to be said, I was really sad about Five and Six's deaths. Tbh I didn't know Six would die so yeah I was a bit sad. It was still an awesome movie though.

[spiraldoor]

I watched The Fountain last night. I thought it was amazing. I think I’ll watch 9 tonight so I can read MLII’s post.
