stumbled across Gall Force - eternal story by accident... another classic from the 80's I'd so desperately wanted to see seen.

Beautiful movie, nice ideas (some obvious Alien influence though) great designs and a good plot.

bought it with my birthday money Halo the legends or essential collection haven't watched it yet. But will sit and watch it tonight if hubby goes to his brothers.

D'you not find though that films which looked amazing at the time aren't all that when you finally do see them now? I finally watched Vampire Hunter D when it came out on DVD, and maybe it was the lackluster dub or the shoddy transfer, but I just didn't find myself enjoying it as much as I would've done had I seen it back in '95...

The Slayers though, which I did watch for the first time very recently, on the recommendation of people at cons and Leah's glowing review, I loved the hell out of!

Sora no Otoshimono Forte ep. 1. In a nutshell:

"Do you like T? How about A? Do you, in point of fact, like T and A? You will like this show!"

Ah, to be fair, there's some properly odd visuals in there; the OP has to be seen to be believed. Very strange. :confused:

Tenchi Muyo! OVA: The uncut version, sweet jesus I forgot how much I loved this series. Not as off the wall as Excel Saga, but pleasingly kooky. Although the whole incest thing... blurgh, I will neevr get used to that. Ryo-ohki... I WANT! *ahem* Any hoo, gotta find the next few Dvd's of it before I delve into "Tenchi Universe!".

Hello,

The last animé I watched was Mamoru Oshii's latest film The Sky Crawlers. Stunning film, very quiet and understated but brilliant nonetheless.

Not sure what I am going to watch next, I do want Roujin Z but that's hard to get hold of, as is Yukikaze. I think I might purchase Texhnolyze, looks very interesting...

I still have it on VHS, taped off BBC2 -- they really have to get off their collective tuchases and get those old Manga Video films on DVD/BR...

Hi Veela,

Is it any good? I have been trying to get hold of it for awhile, but as you point out it dose need a proper release.

Re: What are you currently watching?
 

Um, I only saw it once when I originally taped it -- I remember quite liking it at the time, but I reckon I'll appreciate a lot more now that I'm a bit older. There was a big hoo-ha at the time because it was directed by Otomo, but I think there's much less of a fanfare whenever he does anything new nowadays.
