Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Was not a fan at all of FLCL. Still trying to figure out where all the hype came from.

just watch the parts with mark strong, nic cage, and the little girl
fast forward through the rest
The animation is beautiful, the music is really fun and fitting and the allegory is well-written so as to be really subtle. Plus it's also a cultural commentary.
Basically, for a 6-episode run it is incredibly dense with theme and plot while still managing to be very funny. It's also one of the few where I'd heavily recommend the dub to native English-speakers over the subtitles because they did an excellent job of translating the cultural references for an American audience (the Crystal Pepsi namedrop was great).
It's best going in not knowing anything about it, though. Figuring it all out is the #1 reason I fell in love with it so hard.
if you are going to watch the wild and wonderful whites, you might also wanna track down dancing outlaw first

Now there's a pick-me-upper of a documentary
It's kind of incredible and tragic
That one photo of the ladies with the guns behind their backs is phenomenal

restrepo is go insofar as actually painting a good painting of frustration and how people on the ground actually feel. it seems less about winning hearts and minds and more about getting revenge for their dead friends

War - Sebastion Junger
Is the book. Awkward post.
Steam - Talon Valdez : Xbox Live & LoL - Talonious Monk
It's almost like our general perception of war is slightly skewed!

My general perception of war is "Things go boom"...so...yeah.
no
not saying it's bad, but it's definitely targeted toward a particular cultural demographic
usagi and I tried watching it and about halfway through the second episode we just accepted we're not that demographic and stopped watching
I liked... the music.

everyone should watch Spirited Away, though
Actually I can totally see that people wouldn't like it. But man, it's so weird.

Granted, each episode is like ten minutes long, but still.
I clearly need to watch Cromartie High School

While you have made up your mind on the matter and I won't encourage you to finish watching it, I will say that I didn't get into the series until the end of the second episode.
The first episode really didn't do anything for me, but I was watching it with a group so I just watched it out of curiosity. It's kinda slow and really weird but the fight at the end of episode 2 is very well animated and got me invested in the series.
The third episode is the Puss in Boots bit and I found it pretty cute but the fourth episode is the baseball one and that's tied with the last for best episode.
Going back to the first episode after you know where everything is leading is very entertaining but I definitely remember being completely non-plused with it the first time around.
