It is good, isn't it? I wasn't really sure what to expect from it, particularly as I wasn't the biggest fan of Arrietty, but I was pleasantly surprised.

I watched How To Train Your Dragon 2 last night for like. the third time. It's still INCREDIBLE, the animation is still GORGEOUS, Valka is still great, and it still made me want to cry.

I watched the documentary Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father.
And...wow.
I think I broke into tears quite a few times throughout the length of the film. It's an exceptional documentary which truly makes you share in the loss and grief of those involved.
I would recommend it in a heartbeat - though I will say that perhaps for those who have lost close family members/friends recently or who have ever lost people due to violent crime, it could be a little overwhelming.
But, yeah. Watch it. It's beautiful and sad and special.

I haven't been watching any movies, but I've been addicted to a certain Korean drama lately. lol The Korean title is Gaksital. It encompasses a lot of things I enjoy, particularly how the two lead male characters were constructed; an anti-hero protagonist without morals and is ruthless who later takes on the identity of a masked protector, and his best friend later turned into a villain out of grief and jealousy, a former elementary teacher who was loving and caring but becomes a murderous demon.
I really enjoy the characters. It's not a perfect series by any means (perfection does not exist) but my, is it ever intriguing. I'm in the second half now and I know it becomes even more evolved in the next few episodes. I would've liked had the main female protagonist been developed a little more, but at times she is amazing. It's really the lead male characters though that are so interestingly carved out. Was in need of something like this.
I'm always up for a series with well developed and unconventional characters, especially in drama land. A lot of the time it's hard to find characters like these.

Ah, Robots. I remember when I used to watch it almost every day on VHS.

Yes, the animation quality and the art in that film is really nice.

Ah, I forgot to say... a while ago, I finally saw 5 Centimetres Per Second. I liked it a great deal; it was beautiful and very, very sad. Strangely the emotions of it didn't really hit me until the last moments when that song began to play. The realness of the characters and of the story are what made it so touching. Stories like that play out in the real world all the time.
Maybe I'm biased but that realness seems to be sorely lacking in western animations. Western films in general. The best anime all seem to have it, it's always there in some degree in the Studio Ghibli films.
I had the strongest sense of déjà vu throughout the first part of 5 Centimetres so I'm sure I must have seen it before... though I've no idea when, or why I would only have seen that bit and not the whole thing.
