Honestly who doesnt love top ten countdowns? i know i do. so i deicided im going to share some top tens with all my beloved classmates and everyone out in cyberspace. none of these are in any specific order, and their numerical position on the lists will not reflect on how i feel on the movies. personall i think a complex opinion can not be summed up in to a single digit or a set of stars. dont like it? then you can send me an email about it, and then stick your head in to a bucket of pirahna fish. i would love some feedback on these reviews; it doesnt matter if you agree or disagree, its just nice to know im not the only fly on the web.
TOP TEN ANIMATED FILMS...underplayed, underrated, underexposed, take some time away from your generic disney claptrap and sink your pupils in to these babies.
10: The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (2006)
Bandai (makers of Gundam, Kinnikuman, Keroro Gunsou, and Power Rangers) have steered away from their usual action based entertainment to bring a sweet story of love, friendship, and time travel. Makato Konno is a high school girl who realizes after falling off her bike, that she has the ability to travel back in time and relive old experiences. at first, she uses her newfound gift for her own purposes (such as hogging a karaoke room), but then tries to help people in the present by interfering with their past; this only leads to more trouble.
the story is overall heartwarming and at times confusing. theres a wonderful little twist in the end and leaves you begging for more. the animation is refreshing because it is all hand drawn and not all cgi, bringing us back to a simpler time when animations was a craft, and took than thrity days to make. the only complaint i can seem to muster is the late release in to america. the film was released in japan in the summer of 2006, and here we all are in chilly 2009 with a dvd that costs $30. its a crime! but the price is worth it, so go out and get this dvd today!
