Saw Tokyo Godfathers yesterday. The plot was somewhat unembarassedly cheesy, lining up one coincidence after another to advance itself, but the characters were genius. Directed (and written) by Satoshi Kon, who you might know from Perfect Blue (a film I still have to see) and the series Paranoia Agent. Satoshi shows how each of the main characters is reflected in another, and in other characters they run into, and uses this as a catalyst for soul-searching and self-discovery. Also putting it into my good books is the art, which, similar to Paranoia Agent, uses a bravely realistic warts-and-all style.

I just watched most of "Little Nemo - Adventures in Slumberland", dubbed into french. It's mad. Over-the-top crack-addled animation, with a surprising number of famous names involved.

N'ouvrez pas la porte, Nemo!

May be interesting to anybody who is interested in the culture of the 'Gal' from the anime 'SuperGals'.
