Grave Of The Fireflies.

Everybody was all like “Yo Patrick you gotta see this movie man dog” and I was all “?” and they were all “It’s like the best animated movie and you gotta watch watch watch” and I was all “…”

But then I saw it and got even more confused. I mean it is alright, it has some interesting metaphors and exciting scenes, but I was pretty underwhelmed. To me the best animation is done when the story works well and uses the animation as a tool. The Howl’s Moving Castle and Paprika and others that I find wonderful push the limits of the animation, creating dream-like and fantastic things, and it just wasn’t here for me.
