    Added Paprika--it's frickin' sweet. Although I'll admit that a full half point comes from the super infectious soundtrack, which b/c of dreamdead I've been listening to all week even before watching the movie.

    Potentially, people already know this, but if not, a nifty, authorial fact:
    Satoshi Kon and Yasutaka Tsutsui (the author of the book, Paprika is based on) provide the voices for the two bartenders in the RadioClub.

    Congratulations on graduating to your new avatar.

    Slightly off-topic, but Yasutaka Tsutsui's writings are worth seeking out. So is the other 2006 Madhouse-animated film based on one of his stories, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time.

    Edited in Perfect Blue. Pretty good. I should definitely rewatch Paprika.

    I like that this Kon guy is more geared towards adults.

    It's funny because I like him quite a bit I just don't like Perfect Blue and find Millenium Actress to be average.

    Crap. Like a poor marksman, I keep missing these deadlines.

    Oh well, here they are anyway:

    Perfect Blue: 8
    Millennium Actress: 10
    Paranoia Agent: 9
    Tokyo Godfathers: 9
    Paprika: 9.5

    One of my favorite directors working today.
    Out of 4 stars:
    The Guest: ***1/2
    Furious 7: ***
    The Tale of Princess Kaguya: ***
    It Follows: ***1/2

    This might be a good place to ask what the big deal is about Paranoia Agent. I thought it was going to be brilliant from the excellent first episode, but after that it seemed to get lost in strange tangents and never really gelled as a whole, despite some interesting individual moments.
