Posted by arren18 on 03.06.2011, 05:46 PM: I'm a bit annoyed that it still hasn't been released in the UK. It's finally coming out later this month though. I enjoyed Voices and Place Promised, so I'd definitely like to see this. I'd say the "new Miyazaki" comments are unfair, not because it's overrated, but just because it's a very different style. I like the atmosphere of Shinkai's films; it's quite unlike other anime I've seen.

Posted by Rossdude on 03.06.2011, 05:46 PM: Oh just to add to this, if you are a Shinkai fan, cruchyroll is doing a Shinkai month or something and I think they will be playing his new film "Children who chase lost voices from deep below" (try saying that three times fast, seriously what's with the titles), but I'm not sure. Pretty sure though that they will be showing his first three films so check out crunchyroll.com if you're up for it. |
Posted by Rossdude on 03.06.2011, 05:49 PM: @arren: yeah his films are different from Miyazaki's. Certainly, but overall (I think anyway) his films are just more boring. I mean I still like them. "5 cm" is a bit slow for my tastes, but I really love the animation and the color use.

Posted by maggie on 03.07.2011, 01:21 PM: I never got to see this movie. By the time I became aware of it, the price for the DVD had already inflated way too much. I'll definitely be picking up the re-release when it releases at the end of April. |
Posted by furs on 03.13.2011, 10:43 AM: The subtlety of 5 cm per sec is a work of art. Not everyone's cup of tea, but it suits my taste.

Posted by Pixie on 03.23.2011, 01:51 PM: If I remember correctly, this was a beautiful film. Think I'll buy it. ^^ |
Posted by Saddletank on 04.12.2011, 02:11 PM: It is a very beautiful film. You can almost turn the sound and subtitles off a Shinkai film and just get lost in the intense and delightful visuals. His background scene settings are stunning and he has a wonderful eye for details and lighting.
|
Posted by Theowne on 04.12.2011, 10:50 PM: I think Shinkai is very talented when it comes to creating a snapshot of a particular mood or emotion - such as loneliness or regret - and communicating that atmosphere very well with his beautiful visuals.
|
Posted by Saddletank on 04.13.2011, 08:28 PM: I imagine he has one emotion, one episode, one experience he is exorcising by creating these stories. Let's hope he gets rid of his demons and moves on, because he certainly has the talent to do stunning things given fresh material.
