    I know. I really like weird, abstract stuff like this. This looks like a small holy grail of that sort of thing.

    Edit: Anyone ever seen the PS1 game LSD?

    How about Paprika? That movie is way better, and really visually interesting.

    Wow. Paprika looks as nuts as all hell. That's something I'd like to see.

    As well as Cool World. And Who Framed Rodger Rabbit again.

    I think a lot of the "OLOL Japan is weird" comes from cultural differences. I think the weirdest stuff I've seen on film has been in French arthouse movies.
    Then again, maybe my suspension of belief is just bigger when it's something animated rather than filmed, which would lead to be not being as weirded out by anime. Eh, I don't know.

    Speaking of French stuff, I've seen the gif in your signature before somewhere.
    I think from a Caravan Palace video, but I doubt that's where they originate.

    I will admit, it's as weird as all hell.

    Couldn't help but noticed your picture and sig is from that animation about the Tour De France. I can't remember it's name but I remember getting into that. Or whatever I saw of it.

    But yeah, I think part of it is cultural differences but the Arthouse stuff is weird for different reasons. They want to try and be bold and original, Anime probably just wants a spectacle.

    Edit:
    Oh! Best one is Clint Eastwood. Best song, awesome visuals. OK, for 'best' read 'favourite'.

    Edit 2:
    We made the Autobiography of a fictional Meerkat a national bestseller.

    I'm actually watching the one for DARE. It's... Interesting.
    Feel Good Inc. is good. (...Windmill, windmill for the land. Turned forever hand in hand...)
    DoYaThing is pretty great. It's got SlenderAndre.


    ...Dirty Harry isn't allowed in America on YouTube. Sad.

    The Triplets of Belleville.
    Some arthouse is weird for the sake of weird. It's annoying when people do that. THAT IS NOT HOW YOU ART.
