I don't know whether I should be scared, or amazed.

just watched this with Yay

rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreally interesting

when it was over I said "wow, someone got high and made a movie"

trippy, interesting, visually stunning

and a little bit boring in the middle

but overall, enjoyable

i also said that if i ever have a kid i'd want her to be exactly like Helena

all weird and artistic and cover her walls with pictures she drew

i love her

those cats were so cool/weird

flomojopoanode #10.1.1 flomojopoanodeFounder

yeah, she was cool.

We rented and watched this yesterday - we both agreed it was very cool. There have been so many crappy, generic and/or remade movies lately, it was so nice to watch something very unique. The art was fantastic; you could defintely see how the creators originally envisioned it as a comic. I also loved the whole mother-daughter relationship, and how Helena's mother was both the Dark Queen and the White Queen, because that's how so many girls feel about their mothers. I wonder if boys were able to enjoy it on the same level.

maybe this should have spoilers?

web-toedchloe #9.1.1 web-toedchloeOG 2001

Sorry, you didn't notice that in like the first half hour? I thought it was kind of obvious.

iwz #9.1.1.1 iwz

i don't think he's seen it yet.

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder

we have a winner!

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder

lol, and why would I ask for spoilers if I've already seen it? And what about those who haven't yet?

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

Sorry!

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder

lol, "I thought it was kinda obvious" you said.

You crack me up.

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

I'm such a moron.

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder web-toedchloe

And the Orbiting Giants were so cool.

forrestina #8.1 forrestinaOG 2002

that part made me feel sad

iwz #7 iwz

Oh yeah! We watched this the other night.

It really was amazing. Love the art direction. And the music was great!

Definitely reminded me of Labyrinth.

web-toedchloe #6 web-toedchloeOG 2001

My video store was actually out of this when I went to rent it yesterday. Maybe it'll be in in a few days and then I'll snag it.

iwz #5 iwz

delivered to my house today! will watch it tonight or tomorrow

fivezero #5.1 fivezeroOG 2003

teh

iwz #5.1.1 iwz

teh what

forrestina #4 forrestinaOG 2002

the story reminded me a lot of my favorite book (a wrinkle in time). i thought it was well done. definitely more for a child's mind, but if i had watched this as a child i would've had major nightmares.

fivezero #4.1 fivezeroOG 2003

sweet. v'been wanting to peep this for a while. can't wait.

thefunkyfresh #4.2 thefunkyfreshFounder

i remember that book, a lot of weird/cool stuff in there

forrestina #4.2.1 forrestinaOG 2002

the movie is also weird/cool. at least i thought so. i could see a child really enjoying this because there are things that children think about a lot-good vs evil. it's a visual assault.

forrestina #3 forrestinaOG 2002

i rented this last night. can't wait to watch it tonight!! for the most part, it looks more amusing than scary.

juicymango #3.1 juicymangoOG 2003

interesting, i guess this never came out in the theaters?

forrestina #3.1.1 forrestinaOG 2002

supposedly it only came out in theaters overseas.

originalsnob #3.1.1.1 originalsnobOG 2004

I was wondering why I hadn't seen promos for this. I might check this out!

coreyfeldman #3.1.1.2 coreyfeldmanOG 2003

it was released in the states, small runs though. It played in pittsburgh but I missed it, I really want to see it.

thefunkyfresh #2 thefunkyfreshFounder

i dunno, seems too dark for my taste. maybe i'll check it out though

juicymango #1 juicymangoOG 2003

hmm is this the one that had that weird robot song... i liked that

fivezero #1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

The same. That strange version of that Carpenters, "Close to You." I'm seeing this. It's beautiful and twisted.

juicymango #1.1.1 juicymangoOG 2003

yeah that's what i thought. Me likey.
