The more I watch

Coraline and The Girl who Leapt through Time, the more I like those two films. It's not just the fantastic voice acting, beautiful visuals, or great stories, but the medium as well.

Stop-motion animation and the animation in GLTT both have these distinct charms to it. Coraline, with its fluidity, its precise movements and lip-syncing. The Girl who Leapt Through Time with it's fantastic character designs, soft, entrancing colours and backgrounds.

Two great films, just fantastic films.

And apparently the Director, Writer and Character designer from The Girl Who Leapt Through Time are collaborating again for "Summer Wars," which opens in Japanese theaters on August 1st! Definitely looking forward to the reviews about it.

I know eh? I still don't think it's as great as Nightmare, which I felt had stronger pacing, but man that movie grows on you.
