I watched perfect blue for the first time last night, my feelings about it are mixed. Very good animation and use of sound and music and the abrupt ending was excellent.
However, I get the impression that the writer of the book it was based on couldn't tie up all the loose ends rather than planned it to pan out the way it did.
In a way it's good the way it's unexplained, but perhaps it leaves too much to the imagination.
Still, a very good film, I'd give it 4/5

I thoroughly enjoyed it, which was strange in itself coz I usually only like the Mecha ones (Evangelion, Gundam ,Orguss etc)...
Was a very well written and animated film, but I agree with the loose ends notation! Maybe shall have to get the book & see what it was MEANT to go like!
Still....a thoroughly enjoyable film.....and I agree with 4/5....although 7.5/10 is more precise me thinks 8op

Sounds to me like you prefer the more action-packed ones like I usually do!??

I agree, I didn't get why she didn't check herself into a sanatorium...

I got 'Blood; The Last Vampire' on DVD, that was lame. I mean i've been into Manga since 1991 and I like some content. The end was crap, i was like yeah? so? I'm so gonna have to sell these DVDs.
I got the first Vampire Hunter D and I have no idea what a second one would look like but if the voices have changed I don't want to know.
Project Ako 1 great! the rest don't bother, Samurei Pizza cats are good too.

Not baaaaaaad! Have you seen the trailers for Ninja Scroll? That make absolutely no fuckin sense! Apparently about 2 sword enemies in love with each other....it is obviously written by someone who has yet to see the film!!

Yes, I know -.- Total pap. I like to watch it in Japanese with English subtitles to try and regain the lost detail. The femmy bad guy with the wire is so cool.
Urotsukidoji the 3 hour uncut one is best but I dont have a good copy of that yet. :/ I'd love the full one and will have to get it.
Project Ako is one on my faves. The whole thing scans well man, so funny and good ending. In the movies; "it... it's..... THE KERNAL!"

If you like the Matrix and you like politics and mechas then you will love Appleseed. You will need the comics too tho because the vid only scrapes the very surface. Makes a good point and a bit chilling but cool.

i got metropolis + altho the charcters remind me a bit 2 much of pokemon i thort it woz really good. it is different from most animes tho. it is mayb a bit childish but wotch it all the way through to the end + u will realise u just watched sumthing well worth it.
blood woz visually really cool but 2 b honest the storyline woz pants. + it woz so short.
i herd tho that it is only the first part of many stories that will b released on her. that mite not b true tho

Yeah, Not very good at all. I miss the classics and this 'New wave' *shudders* Manga is turning into a pain.

There were some things in it that didn't seem to make sense, but overall it was an enjoyable thriller, would be interesting to see it made by David Cronenburg or someone..
