Because I'm filthy weeb, I mostly watch anime and that shit but I decided to watch some japanese movies.
>Shin Godzilla
This was my first Godzilla movies and it's pretty good, the visual were great and the soundtrack is amazing, the story is meh but they are many great scenes out there, I say that it's worth a watch I'll maybe check out other Godzilla films.
>Lesson Of Evil
Pretty brutal I like it, they really went all out on this film even angering some journos, it's not one of most well made movies out there but it was fun watch.

is Godzilla minus one as good they say? while i definitely think it should have won best foreign picture for shits and giggles, im not sure if i want to watch it, maybe it's just my recency and popularity bias acting up.

>Demons (1971)
I figured I had to watch at least one horror movie on my own this month. I came across Demons, a Japanese movie from the early 70s that I had actually seen the beginning of (but then subsequently forgot). The movie fell under "horror", so I figured I'd give it a shot.
Movie's about a ronin who is supposed to be leading a vendetta movement, but he instead gets sucked into the ploy of a geisha.
The cinematography is amazing. Super cool shots and angles are used throughout the movie. I was never bored watching the screen, even though the movie was a little over 2 hours long.
The plot was kind of meh (in that you know what's going to happen), though still captivating in its own way the director loves tricking you, which keeps you on the edge of your seat.
The gore was, well, unexpected. I'm guessing you could call this a historical slasher movie in a way? I thought we were going to get spoops as I expect from some 60s yokai movie, but that wasn't the case here at all. There are some ghost elements, but I think the big "horror" element is the gore. And it doesn't disappoint, even though it's in black and white.
Although the plot is somewhat weak (maybe that's why it's considered a horror movie, heh) and it is fairly long, I'd still recommend you give this one a watch this Halloween season. Don't try looking it up too much, it's one of those movies where it's better if you know less about it. The mo

>favorite mummy and/or werewolf films
I don't think I have a favorite since thinking about it, I don't think I've even watched that many. This is what I got as watched (that we haven't watched on stream):

Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy - classic
Bubba Ho-Tep - not bad
An American Werewolf in London - didn't like it the first time, REALLY didn't like it the second time
Ginger Snaps - it's Canadian
The Wolf Man - I know I watched it, but I don't remember it

Just watched the first two episodes of this thing.
Why do all cartoon characters for children have to be loud and annoying now?
Did this people even bother watching a 20s cartoon? The whole point is that old cartoons barely spoke coherent english and relied on body language to tell the story.
These daffy cunts never shut the fuck up. Even Popeye and Bugs Bunny didn't talk as much and as loudly as them.
The animations is nice and the backgrounds great but the plot is the most generic and bland shit. They never take advantage of being based on old animation.

Since It's almost Christmas I watched Tokyo Godfathers recently. I also watched Batman Ninja. Both pretty good films.
I'm thinking of going back to finish all of the Ghibli films too. Speaking of which, what is your favorite of them? Mine is Grave of the Fireflies.
Not movies but I also started re-watching DBZ and Mobile Suit Gundam.

In terms of animated movies.  Both anime and western had its peak on the late 80's and 90's. Everything afterwards went downhill and I doubt It will ever shine like it used to. 
Films like Tarzan have yet to be surpassed in terms of body language and fluidity in animation and anime movies nowadays don't hold a candle to Ghibli's works and Akira.

What this fag >>722 said. Late 80s/90s is peak anime. The cutoff isn't really 2000 but more or less whenever a studio switched to fully digital animation tools.
One of the late exceptions would be REDLINE, being completely hand drawn. And it shows but then they also spent 7 years on it so maybe it shouldn't even count as an exception, starting before everyone had gone digital
If you like the GitS film you should watch Patlabor 2 the Movie. Directed by the same fag, it's basically proto-GitS.

General scifi thread, I'm going to assume we're allowed to talk about shows here as well.
I finished watched Farscape and thought it was good, I liked most of the characters but it all felt a bit jumbled, like trying to do too much in too little time. I also didn't think it was made clear which side Scorpius was on. I think there was a moment somewhere towards the end where he decided what he was fighting for but the whole time I was just waiting for him to backstab everyone else again like he did the dozen times beforehand. I think overall it had too many characters that it was trying to juggle around and they didn't really have time to flesh out any of the secondary characters as much as the primary cast.
Because of all that I think I like Lexx more, even for all the flaws it has in the later seasons. It kept it weird but simple, only a few real characters you have to keep track of and the much slower pace. The universe was also more interesting but they never really explain much of anything in it. I want to know more about His Shadow and the League of 20,000 Planets and how it was created, but after the first season it's pretty much mothballed and rarely mentioned again or explored in any kind of detail. Season 3 tried too hard to be 2deep4u and season 4 was a shitshow on all fronts, at least the finale was good though.
I have an endless craving for late-90s/early-2000s scifi but it seems I'm running out. What ot

scifi update from yours truly
>seaquest DsV
finished season 1, the problem is it's too family friendly, too afraid to do anything new, and the weird obsession with dolphins being magical ethereal beings still coming into play, like the episode where he helps the russian mobster bond with his autistic son, or in season 2 when darwin can communicate with aliens. fucking bizarre show but not in a fun way, just a really weird and bad acting-way. and lots of future predictions that aged miserably.
also learned the actor who played Lucas an-hero'd at 27, that was sad.
>andromeda
haven't touched it since my last post and i don't know if i will again, just a trainwreck of a show by the end.
>sliders
the second half of season 3 is really fucking bad after they kill off arturo, but in season 4 they slightly improve it by bringing the kromags back as the main enemy but they're really bad at making them good enemies. just watched the one where they convince one of them to join their side and kill himself in the process. none of the alternate earths they're visiting are that interesting either, and the script + acting is really bad.
is scifi just a doomed genre?

Any popular films or any films overall that have a generally postive reception.
I guess i'll start.
I did not like the godfather movies. I liked the first half of the first movie but the rest bored the crap out of me. I actually had to force myself to stay awake and take multiple breaks because i kept almost falling asleep.
I did not like teriminator 1 and 2. I thought it was boring. I liked Alien but i did not like Aliens. I didnt like Aliens because it trivialized the alien itself. It turned it from a horror movie to some stupid machine gun killing alien movie.

The only good thing about evangelion was the mecha fights. All the girls were shit, used goods or both.
Replies: >>2745 >>2746

I thought that the movie was pretty consistent with the rest of the series in suggesting that the Eva girls would be insufferable in real life. Shinji was a wreck in the movie because he felt more comfortable with a guy than either of the two girls he gets paired with, and he just squashed the guy's spine like a squish toy. He jerks off to Asuka's comatose body because the only time he can feel genuine attraction to her is when she isn't awake and acting like a bitch. Misato I can sorta see, though the framing didn't exactly seem fanservicy to me.
I find that whole "stop liking the things I make for you" sensibility to be pretty funny nowadays. It's a totally different market, of course, but it seems like a lot of flops nowadays get mad that you didn't pay money to watch or play them. Works so deeply insecure and post-post-post-post-ironic that they offer nothing other than wasted time.
I liked the first two Rebuilds. I didn't see the other two because my interest in the series went away during the time gap. But according to what I've seen and read, Anno starts taking a fat bong rip of his own farts. Dude postmodernism lmao.

A thread for movies featuring tomboys. What counts as a tomboy movie is kind of vague, as they don't necessarily have to be about 'being a tomboy' or 'the phenomenon of tomboys', but ideally a tomboy should be prominently featured in the film instead of being a background character and ideally the movie would be good. 
In theory this isn't be limited to anime, but I suspect they'll be the only films worthwhile since a lot of western movies about 'tomboys' are either butch dyke ntr films or tranny garbage.

Reaching the big city, she gets lost and ends up meeting Shino, a fusé who helps her in finding her brother's house. Dousetsu wants to team up with her to win a bounty award to hunt down the fusé, which are people who are part wolf and part human that eat other people's essence.

When she learns of an opportunity to become a concubine of the young new Emperor, with the possibility of getting a regular food supply in the bargain, Ginga convinces her father to let her go. Once there, she meets all of the other potential head wives, each of whom have various reasons for being there. All of them must learn to read and write, learn the history of their country, and learn the proper mannerisms for being in the royal court.

Has David Lynch ever made a good movie? It sure doesnt seem like it. It just seems to be pretentious bullshit that never tells an actual story. I watched mullholland drive but im guessing the rest of his films are the same. (excluding elephant man) Elephant man wasnt pseudish. It was a normal movie. The impressions i've seen of his other movies reek of the mulholland drive pseud shit.

>It is based on the true story of Alvin Straight's 1994 journey across Iowa and Wisconsin on a lawn mower.
>Alvin Boone Straight (October 17, 1920 – November 9, 1996) was an American man who travelled 240 miles (390 km) on a riding lawn mower from Laurens, Iowa to Blue River, Wisconsin to visit his ailing brother in 1994.
