I'm not really ashamed but I have some 90s classic anime on DVD and people try to shame me for it all the time. Like, they sell it on the shelf in the corner and go 'YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE ANIME NERD WEIRDOS'. Except I'm not. It's just shit I liked as a teenager and I re-watch every few years. I don't get why it is so 'shameful' to have these in my possession. I know nothing about anime since like 2004.
It's Cowboy Bebop, Escaflowne, and Neon Genesis.
I am not an anime nerd at all, but I do like cinema and good tv.
90s anime is best anime.
You have good tastes.
Bebop is great and what a great/strong soundtrack.
Eva is much more than mech fights. A lot more.
Good stuff.
All Quiet on the Western Front, specifically the 2022 Netflix version.
It's one of the most beautiful films I've ever seen in terms of its cinematography, which kinda just feels wrong given the subject matter.
The subject matter is that war fucking sucks and we shouldn't do it. Are you saying you find that position problematic?
Maybe read what I wrote a second time.
I love August Rush too. The emotion is so real!
The most embarrassing thing I've watched would be a romance-ish anime like High School of the Dead.
When it comes down to it though, I'm open to almost anything. I worked in the entertainment industry for a decade and I've enjoyed everything from silly cartoons to epic IMAX masterpieces.
Hudson Hawk.
Bunny, ball ball!
Honestly The Longest Yard with Adam sandler It’s pretty poorly written. But I love it
I like The Core. Also a fan of Deep Impact, in that I've watched it multiple times. I feel no shame.
I remember when deep impact came out. I wrote "deep impact" on my arm to tell my friend about it after i saw the trailer. I thought it's gonna ve the biggest thing ever. I only remember the movie being boring, but it's one of the movies i wanna rewatch
The Party, from 1968. It's straight-up blackface, a white actor plays the Indian main character, stereotypical accent and all. I am plainly ashamed to like it for that reason. That and there's a painted elephant paraded around the house at some point and I don't trust animal welfare in films to be taken seriously at all at this time.
Everything else about the movie is quite enjoyable. Nearly the whole movie takes place at a crazy awesome midcentury party mansion. The gags are hilarious. There's quite a few heartwarming moments. And apparently, despite the racial stereotypes and blackface, the movie was "hugely popular" in India (or so says wikipedia)
