October 18th, 7pm - 7am

Thought everyone would like to know about this. This appears to be an event renting the theater as opposed to something the Somerville is coordinating. Figured it might be interesting for some, although I've no plans to go myself at the moment.

yeah, Grave of the Fireflies should only be viewed once in a lifetime, regardless of how well done it is.

WHY PROJECT A-KO?

ewwww...

[ifotismeni]

it's an 80s classic! 8D

Yeah, I have to admit that I was taken aback a bit to see "Fireflies" in with the rest. I would have swapped in "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" or "Perfect Blue", myself.

"The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" is one of my favorite films ever, anime or otherwise. I saw it at an amazing screening at MIT last year.

I caught it recently at the Brattle. SUPERB film, very well done. One of the few animes that I actually like, in point of fact.

Hey, I was there too!

Fantastic film. Minor point: I loved the relentless cicada sounds in the background.

Hey, remember that song? That one song? That they play in the whole movie? How does it go? Oh yeah!

And now you come and see it all just for yourself
See the angel's wings, but something else is there
And all those magic hearts are all for you again

And then you come and listen to the sweet little voice
Singing there for you and only just for you
She is protecting you right now..

And if sometimes you feel for your love
Send a little heart for her
And she'll be there for you with her love
Waiting only for you!

And when you love her, love her she will be
A little angel, angel in your heart
You've got to push it, push it for her love
And then forever, ever she will be
Happy angel of your heart to be there together

And now you need a little faith in me and yourself
When you make your way to change the destiny
If you could only see what I could do for you

And even when you feel you have a difficult time
Listen to my heart who sings to make you shine
When you start to fall in love

If it's any consolation, that song's going to be stuck in my head all day, and I hate J-pop.

"Excuse me, who are you?" ;-)

Perfect Blue should be hurtled into the abyss and never spoken of again.

It's a pretty well-structured little thriller. I like that it leaves a lot of questions open, myself.
