heres a somewhat oldie
i think anyone who was born in the early to mid 80's and grew up watching nickelodeon back when it wasnt MTV for sissies should remember this neat little short that played inbetween shows
.

you might also remember this playing around the same time, which in retrospect is a pretty dark little short

Mars makes a documentary about life on earth
quite silly but witty

a lovely old UPA toon from 1953 about a unicorn and a couple with severe marriage problems

3 misses by the same guy who did the film about the egg that I posted above
this is a neat little movie he made in 1998

and now one of my favorite short films which is on youtube and split into 3 parts. I've talked about who katsuhiro otomo is in here before. him, koji morimoto, and satoshi kon are 3 of my favorite japanese animation directors. they do crazy insanely creative stuff.
anyway
a few years ago (quite a few now this came out in 1995) he and his confidants made a movie called Memories which was 3 short films each one telling a different story all based off various manga and such.
if you're a big fan of animation theres's a good chance you may have seen these. if you havent, well you SHOULD. because they are great.
all 3 films are excellent. magnetic rose tells a very sad but spooky ghost story on an abandoned ship in outer space, stink bomb is about a man who accidentally takes a supplement which makes him smell so bad he starts wiping out the population and yes its a comedy, and the final one was an odd funky little film about a military community called Cannon Fodder.
which is the one i'll be posting now
also oh fuckballs figures i found the one that isnt translated into freakin english
hold on I CAN FIX THIS DO NOT PANIC
ok here it is in english instead

im not entirely sure but i believe the cgi effect being used to make the paintings seem 3d in some of these scenes is the same used in most of the Studio Ghibli films and was also used in Disney's TARZAN animated film. i think it also got used in the first few pokemon movies.

How do you find the time to do all of these? Doesn't it feel kind of tedious by now?
