"You have a choice"
Posts: 422
OK. Japenese anime movies usually arn't my sort of thing, but my mate likes them so he decided to put Spirited Away on during one of our "Film Nights."

WHAT THE HELL!?!?!? This is officially the weirdest film I have ever encountered. It starts off pretty understandable with a girl worried about moving to a new school etc, and all of a sudden her parents are turning into pigs, a good looking lad she's friends with randomly turns out to be a dragon and the baby's are 3 feet taller than their mother and speak better english.

Anyone seen this?! Did I miss something or is it just a damn weird film?

a very good looking lad

Maybe you were too concentrated on the good looking lad to follow the film properly.

"Goddamn ... that's one good looking lad."

I thought it was an amazing film. It's supposed to be magical, you know, not real? It is one of my favourite animated films, if you want a less "wierd" anime film try something like Princess Mononoke or Akira.

Although if you don't want weird, you should probably steer clear of anime all together.

Aye, I was going to say something similar, it's going to be hard to find anime that you think is wierd.

For all those who recommended me 'Full Metal Alchemist' a while ago I'd just like to say thanks. Rather than resurrect a dead topic, this seems like an appropriate thread. The first DVD was excellent; I really enjoyed it and I've pre-ordered the second (which I think should be out tomorrow).

As for Spirited Away, it's an amazing film. I think 'brilliantly original' is a better way to describe it than 'weird'.

I thought people wern't allowed to include weird in their posts as people get it wrong and it upset someone.
