Spirited Away probably #1
― Mordy, Friday, 11 January 2013 17:27 (eleven years ago) link
was that even nominated? were muppets movies fair game too? xp
― trey songza (some dude), Friday, 11 January 2013 17:27 (eleven years ago) link
Actually I'd expect Corpse Bride and Beauty and the Beast to place by now, probably something more leftfield like Antz or Cowboy Bebop. Would be surprised to see Team America in top 10, but more so not making top 100.

Those puppet things weren't nominated, were they? I certainly fucking hope not! (speaking as a lurking nonvoter)

snow white in top 10 too i'm sure

Aladdin has to have made it right?
― contrarian, zing thyself (cajunsunday), Friday, 11 January 2013 17:36 (eleven years ago) link
Snow White was #33. Not sure if 'Team America' was nominated now. Just realised that #1 is going to be 'Iron Giant'. 'Triplets of Belleville' must have a shout at the top 10 too.

some unsurprising recency bias in these results, at least when looking at rank order.

The Wrong Trousers really is wonderful
― Number None, Friday, 11 January 2013 18:18 (eleven years ago) link
Actually #14 #12 and #11 are all films I expected to see in the top 10!
I actually think Toy Story 2 might be the fourth-placed Pixar film, which is really fucked up.
Totoro, Spirited Away, Akira to come surely.
Aladdin & Beauty and the Beast are the remaining Disney princesses, I have no reading on the whole genre, so I don't know if it'd be more of a travesty to appear this much higher than the others, or not at all.
Iron Giant maybe, Belleville certainly not.
Aaand a few shorts? I will speculate What's Opera Doc? and Duck Amuck, because that's what I voted for.
Write in vote for Bully For Bugs at #1 :)

Paprika is a visual feast, but plotwise I think it's Kon's weakest movie by a good margin. The story and dialogue feel pedantic and under-developed, so it feels too much like a "typical" anime movie.
Everything since 20 has been great
― Duane Barry, Friday, 11 January 2013 21:51 (eleven years ago) link
Paprika is based on a novel - unfortunately it isn't all that good plot- and character-wise either

While taking care of my nephews, I've seen The Wrong Trousers 2,743 times. They really have good taste.

I agree that paprika's plot/characters are not as strong as other kon work, but the visuals

That does look pretty cool!
I know I've seen Millenium Actress, but up until seeing it in the countdown here I had no memory of doing so, and it remains a very faint and hazy sense of deja vu. When did I see it? Why? What was it about? I have only the faintest notions. There's something kind of off-putting, to me, about Kon's (or Studio Madhouse's?) animation style... the character designs have this sort of wooden, distant quality. It's maybe an intentional effect, fitting the themes of the story, or maybe they're going for realism and my eyes, accustomed to very stylized anime, don't really process it as such?

Maybe MNT should just be renamed CATBUS? It seems to be what's swinging it. Though Totoro itself is also cool, obv.

millennium actress is really good & sorta uniquely lyrical i think?, i am maybe not qualified to say 'uniquely' because i am not great with japanese film or with modern animated cinema, but i feel like it imbues some fairly standard settings & scenarios with a weird emotional pitch. which you can say about miyazaki too, right. like kiki's delivery service is such a reassuringly depression-permeated kids movie.
toroto is so lovely.

― sunn o))) dude (Leee), Tuesday, 15 January 2013 17:18 (eleven years ago) link
Actually in school? I wouldn't have thought that an ideal environment tbh, there's a lot of lovely (and eerie) quiet moments in the film.
Disclaimer: I have never watched a film in school, and would assume that it gets a little rowdy, particularly if there's arm-disintegration and laser bikes.
― Andrew Farrell, Tuesday, 15 January 2013 17:25 (eleven years ago) link
On the other hand I've never seen The Iron Giant, so wtf do I know about anything.
Common theme of these films: I expected them a lot higher.
― Andrew Farrell, Tuesday, 15 January 2013 17:26 (eleven years ago) link
Iron Giant is amazing thru and thru (SUPERMAN)Akira is still great animation and among the all time great soundtracks but the story is rushed and a lil boring
