Noooo sé si Kung Fu Panda sea lo mío. Coraline leí la novela y me gustó pero no tanto como para querer ver la película demasiado.

Ah sí, creo que nada más lo mencioné de pasada una vez. Pero Road to El Dorado me gustó lo bastante como para boldearlo. A que no te extraña que tengo un poco de crush on Miguel? 8D

[identity profile] sha-chan.livejournal.com 2009-04-09 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Bueno la primera es lol. Y la película de Coraline estaba bueníiisima, así que si te animas, te la recomiendo por completo. (sobre todo por el OST *w*)

......XDDD No. Es mi favorito también ♥

He visto reacciones mixtas sobre KFP. No sep, igual como la novela me dio un poco igual, no creo que la película no lo hará mejor. Hm.

A todo esto, los [o] también contaban en el conteo? o_o Porque si es así, tengo mucho más que eso.

Podrías intentar si no tienes nada mejor que ver. Que no sé si será pronto xD;

Es sólo Disney, Pixar, Dreamworks y Ghibli. Es igualita que lo de arriba en sus categorías, pero sin marcar si me gustan o no. Y sólo cuento si la he visto en 2008-2009, así que casi todo Disney está sin marcar para que le haga rewatch.

I don't even know what they're going to adapt from there? It's all so visual and any made-up dialog would ruin the feeling.

Oh, wow, this meme is actually quite awesome. I'm tempted to do it even if I probably wouldn't do very good.

WOMAN YOU HAVEN'T SEEN TOY STORY 2 WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU /drama

Apart from that - I love Meet the Robinsons for some reason, and I totally didn't expect that. And boo, you didn't like the Wallace & Gromit film :( (what about the shorts, though?)

My Neighbour Totoro (THE CUTE IT BURNS), Porco Rosso and especially Whisper of the Heart are some of my favourite Ghibli films. Satoshi Kon's Millennium Actress is just AMAZING, imo. It's my favourite by him, next goes Perfect Blue, but that one I wouldn't recommend to you (lol mindfuck).

I think Horton Hears a Who! may be too recent to be on that list, but IT IS AWESOME ♥

Toy Story 2... it's just weird since it's the only Pixar (besides shorts) I haven't watched D: They have it on my faculty's library, so I'll pick it up.

Eh, I have no idea about Wallace and Gromit in general. I tend to... just blank when I watch anything from them. Not my thing, I guess.

I've been really determined to watch as many Ghibli movies as possible, and yet I haven't got to those, boo D: Satoshi Kon movies have been on my list since forever.

Thanks for the recs :D

[identity profile] hamsterfactor.livejournal.com 2009-04-09 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Toy Story 2 is actually my favourite Pixar movie of them all ♥

I think you'll probably like My Neighbor Totoro. It's just full of CUTE and so heartwarming~ And now that I look closely... isn't The Cat Returns on the list? Wha? (you've seen that one, right?)

Still I love how it's animation from all over.

I don't think The Corpse Bride is my thing, but you're not the first one to suggest the second one so that's going to my list.

I don't really have a "type" all the time, so yeah, I didn't really think about that when reccing. :/ I liked it 'cause it was weird and funny.

You haven't seen any Shinkai Makoto? OMG, if you want anything, I have it, he's brilliant, I love his stuff. And OMG, I didn't realise The Land Before Time was Don Bluth...

Mmmm, sadness in a good amount I don't mind. It's the excess or crude realism what turns me off. Not that I love extremely happy endings either, or that Disney's are always "happily ever after".

But from what little I heard, his stories are either sci-fi or contemporary. As I'm not that high on both genres, the summaries don't draw me. It's a pity.

[identity profile] amorphic.livejournal.com 2009-04-10 12:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, don't watch Grave of the Fireflies, that can kill you with the tears DX

I think Five Centimetres per Second is pretty normal, I don't remember it being particular sci-fi, not as much as Hoshi no Koe anyway, but the movies separated into three parts and I cried in each of them so I guess it's a little high on the Sadness Scale =P

Not only have I watched: I stroke-through it and if I could I'd do it twice! :o However, I didn't cry mostly because I never connected with the characters and spent the whole screening kind of grossed out. My eyes itched a bit out of pity of that death, but I didn't cry since it was too over the top. (If it helps, I rarely cry on movies)

Like I said, contemporary, normal movies... kind of bored me.

Aww, Watership Down is buried and too hard to find on that list. It belongs in a new category, "What Do You Mean It's Not For Kids?" Then everyone can share stories about how it traumatized them as kids, or boggle because they loved it as a kid.
