Was going to post this in the demon slayer thread but it wouldn't let me.


Demon slayer pre sales just opened in japan--and sold out in 10min!

While anime film releases often do well in Japan, this level of early interest is rare. Selling out nationwide screenings within minutes is not just impressive, it is historic. That kind of turnout usually signals a film with major cultural weight, not just another sequel.

How insane will this get?

The lushly artistic 1985 film Angel's Egg -- directed by Mamoru Oshii -- has gotten a 4K remaster.

GKIDS will screen the movie in theaters on November 19th .. presumably to be followed by a 4K / Blu-ray release, early next year.



The girl's hair in this movie has many 'flyaway' strands which were inked entirely by hand in white paint, on a separate cel layer above the character cel..! The backgrounds are gorgeous and moody. The storytelling and symbolism are powerfully memorable.

I'll definitely catch the theatrical release .. and look forward to finally upgrading from my DVD..!
