DVD wish list :D

[Lemonking]

post stuff/info about the DVDs your are getting soon^___^


Nausicaä
Whisper of the Heart
Princess Mononoke

Monokelot Outline: On a journey to find the cure for a Tatarigami's curse, Ashitaka finds himself in the middle of a war between the forest and Tataraba, a mining colony. In this quest he also meets San, the Mononoke Hime.
Plot Synopsis: A prince is infected with an incurable disease by a possessed boar/god. He is to die unless he can find a cure to rid the curse from his body. It seems that his only hope is to travel to the far east. When he arrives to get help from the deer god, he finds himself in the middle of a battle between the animal inhabitants of the forest and an iron mining town that is exploiting and killing the forest. Leading the forest animals in the battle is a human raised by wolves, Princess Mononoko

Whispers of the Heartlot Synopsis: A young girl finds that all the books she chooses in the library have been previously checked out by the same boy. Later she meets a very infuriating fellow... could it be her "friend" from the library? The boy's grandfather has a violin sales and service shop. The boy wants to be a violin maker like his grandfather.

NAUSICAÄ lot Outline: Warrior/pacifist Princess Nausicaä desperately struggles to prevent two warring nations from destroying themselves and their dying planet.
Plot Synopsis: In the far future, man has destroyed the Earth in the "Seven Days of Fire". Now, there are small pockets of humanity that survive. One pocket is the Valley of Wind where a princess named Nausicaa tries to understand, rather than destroy the Toxic Jungle. Note that the old US release titled Warriors of the Wind is an entirely kiddified version which edits the original movie heavily, thus creating an entirely different story. -Andre

Errr, I've already got all of the DVDs I wanted.

This would've been a logical thread if it was before Christmas.
Sorry. :|

 

[DeusExMachina]

There's plenty of DVDs I want. Far too many to name.

 

[Lemonking]

awwww, ever paycheck means at least 2 DvDs for me
Dont you have a s small job?

 

[Lucid]

Sure I have a well paying job.
I also have a bank account, So I usually save my money.

And again, I've got every DVD I want at the moment.
Hell, get me a site where you can make a list of DVDs that you own... and I'll tell you the ones I have.

Maybe I'm being a bit retarded but... How in the **** do I add movies to my list? >.<

 

[DeusExMachina]

[Lucid]

Here's mines so far.

 

[VictimOfScience]

Nausicaä.

That's so weird--I just bought this last week! Its fantastic! Enjoy!

My most wanted right now is Howl's Moving Castle. (Region 1 -- March 7)

 

[CyberPitz]

I wish I had the box set to Scrapped Princess...

Then a few of the left over DVDs in teh Chrno Crusade series..

then a whole lotta wall scrolls.

yeah it's great I rented it from Blockbuster and I loved it, so Im buying it on friday

probaly the best animated movie in the 80s imo

 

[kupocake]

probaly the best animated movie in the 80s imo

I'd say Kiki's Delivery Service or Grave of the Fireflies. Depending on whether I want to be hit with the Cute Fluffy Mallet or the Bludgeoning Axe of Death and Depression.

So it's usually Kiki's.

Can't say Nausicaa really does it for me. Main reason being the Manga is so incredible. It's disappointing to watch an epic being stripped down to it's bare-essentials and hideously deformed. In many ways, it's simply a cash in. Though as far as cash-ins go, I can't really take issue with it. It's simple. No Nausicaa movie, no Ghibli. I just wish that Ghibli would revist the property, and give it the trilogy it deserves

And keeping it all consistantly related, the next DVDs on my wish-list?

Howl's Moving Castle (early March)
My Neighbour Totoro (late March)
My Neighbours the Yamadas (April)
Whisper of the Heart (April)
Only Yesterday (May)

As they're releasing over the next four/five months in the UK. Porco Rosso and Pom Poko in the post \o/ . Also want to pick up the dirt-cheap GitS Stand Alone Complex 1st Gig Boxset (i'm not actually a fan of GitS, but... but the price!). And the last two volumes of Paranoia Agent. Because Satoshi Kon is the best thing since... umm... Hayao Miyazaki?

Edit: Have you seen Mononoke before? I adore that film.

 

[DEATH eVADER]

Serenity

Captain Malcolm Reynolds, a hardened veteran (on the losing side) of a galactic civil war, now eeks out a living aboard his ship, Serenity. He leads a small, eclectic crew, but when Mal takes on two new passengers – a young doctor and his telepathic sister – he gets much more than he bargained for. The pair are fugitives from the coalition dominating the universe, and so Serenity finds itself caught between the unstoppable military force of the Alliance, the horrific, cannibalistic fury of the Reavers – and another danger lurking at the very heart of the spaceship…

I rented Monoke, and loved it.Movies that I really like I buy
I wish movies in the western world could be made that good (story and charakters I mean)
The first time I heard about it, was when it got a oscar, which it really deserved

 

[Venmoch]

Elfen Lied.

It comes out in the UK soon. And its well worth it.

 

[Lemonking]

Elfen Lied is the most perveted anime I have ever seen D: thats why I dig it^^

 

[VictimOfScience]

Yeah, I must get my hands on the manga. Having not read it certainly helps make the movie more impressive I guess because I really loved it. Terribly moving.

Edit: Have you seen Mononoke before? I adore that film.

Yup and it is an awesome film as well. Definitely near the top of my list, along with Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust.
