but seriously how could i forget mister vampire i can't believe,

it's my second most watched movie of all time after ghost in the shell

You have more sophisticated taste than me

Though I. Also thought of Amelie. I feel like that's every white afab millenials first French film

Haha, I never thought I'd hear my taste described as 'sophisticated'! the only one that seems like that to me would maybe be Workers From the Good Lord bc it's a bit art house-y but even then... it's very visceral. I think... visceral and cathartic and/or whimsical feel-good or "it has AI in" is probably how I'd describe my collection heh

SCREAMS I FORGOT _BATTERIES NOT INCLUDED_ AS WELL hhhhhhhh that film probably shaped who I am today as much as Nausicaa did
