Millenium actress -----
First ever satoshi kon movie i've seen, pretty good.
Millenium actress is a movie about an old film star who dissapeared, a now 30 years later she is telling the story of her life, thing is, her memory fails her, as she starts mixing the movies and reality.
While the movie requires a little of brainpower to understand, the story is actually very straight forward. She just keeps pushing forward in life, and that key is a representation of that. The key isn't an actual key but more a metaphorical representation of some of her feelings.
I think this movie is really well done, it feels pretty unique, and yeah, i'm open to watching more satoshi kon in the future
put in B tier

The animatrix -------
Matrix anime anthology, suprisingly good
i'm not the biggest fan of anthologies, but this one was good. The animation is surprisingly polished, and a lot of the plots are very interesting, honestly, I wish a lot of this made it to actual matrix movies. I found that story on how the robots revolutionized actually pretty interesting. I haven't watched matrix 4, so I don't know if it takes inspiration from this
This anthology series is more sympathetic to both the matrix and the robots, and it really explores the consequences of a matrix existing a lot more deeply than in the movies I feel, which is a direction I actually love.
Also another thing is that sigma males have absolutely ruined matrix for me, like, at times a character said "that is because i've taken the red pill" and i'm like please dont say that.
Put in C tier

Corpse Bride
it's alright
pretty famous stop motion animation movie by tim burton. The plot is about a man that accidently marries a corpse, the entire movie revolves around the typical story of "oh what if you couldn't marry the person you loved", there isn't any real new nuance to it.
The movie is also a musical, the songs achieve their goal. They tell the plot properly and they're in fact songs, however, there wasn't any song that impacted me or whatever, the music is just fine
The actual aesthetic of the movie and character design are pretty on point. It's a movie that has a very unique look. It also takes advantage of the fact that it's an animated movie and makes the shape of the characters all pretty different. ALl the characters are easily recognaisable which is always good. What I will point out it's that I find it pretty funny that even the female skeletons have their chest covered like if they had bone titties, honestly, accidental comedy.
this is not really an ambitious movie or anything that tries too hard, but it's still an enjoyable watch regardless
placed on B tier
