Sky Crawlers Movie
dbml:
I just finished watching Sky Crawlers... now I understand why it needs to be viewed a second time. At first, I absolutely hated the ending. But after thinking about it for a bit, I'm beginning to appreciate and understand it more. It's very thought provoking... I guess that's the point. Not sure if I'll be able to watch it again anytime soon, but I certainly will at some point to get the full effect.

The Sky Crawlers is a superb effort by Oshii, and after the convoluted (but pretty) mess that was Innocence, I'm glad he chose a more straightforward way to direct this allegorical tale.
I've just finished watching it, and I was avoiding any threads linked to it like the plague (sorry Camus pun). It is an amazing film, I haven't been moved like that in a long, long time. I really wish I had more to say, at this point, but I'm still feeling a bit dazed from the strength of this movie. I'd say it's the best film of any kind released in quite a while.

i didnt like it tho, its much like pandemonium

Sky Crawlers' Oshii Plans 1 Anime, 2 Live-Action Films
--- Quote ---Mamoru Oshii, the writer and director known for the Ghost in the Shell films, the Patlabor franchise, and Avalon, has revealed his upcoming film plans at a Friday event to mark the DVD and Blu-ray Disc releases of The Sky Crawlers war romance anime film in Tokyo. He has two live-action feature film plans on standby, which he projected will be released one after another as soon as this fall. He indicates that one of the projects will be aimed at film connoisseurs and will have a penny-pinching budget. The other live-action film project will be an action-adventure epic of "eroticism and violence." Oshii also just started work on a new anime film that, if feasible, he will open in the 2011 timeframe.

Now how is that different from any of the movies he's done so far? I'm looking forward to it.
