111: Animation Double Feature! - "The Triplets of Belleville" & "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time"

We know it's been awhile since we covered an animated film.  This week we make it up to you by covering two brilliant animated films (psst - not from the US, shhh).

Starting out with a heart-breaker from France and ending up leaping through time in Japan in a way Sam Beckett never imagined!

Check out our reviews of The Triplets of Belleville and The Girl who Leapt Through Time!

92 - This week we say a eulogy at the "Grave of the Fireflies"

We don't cover enough animation on this show.

There I said it.

To help make up for that fact, this week we're covering one of the most culturally important films Japan has ever produced. 

A film largely heralded as one of the most effective anti-war films ever made.

Let's take a look!

84 - Writing Letters to "Mary and Max"

Not only do we return to animation, but this is the first time we've ever covered claymation on MYMHM!

This Australian gem is funny, heart-wrenchingly sweet, and features a small but fantastic voice cast, with INCREDIBLE cinematography.

...

That's enough typing on my part, just watch the review!

67 - Talking About 'Renaissance' with Our Pal Darren

You might not know Darren, but he's been a tremendous supporter of MYMHM, having suggested many films (even evangelizing Battle Royale which we reviewed last week).

When he suggested reviewing a CG animated, Blade Runner style noir, featuring the voice talents of Daniel Craig, we thought "Why not have him on to chat with us". Then we thought "I could really go for a cheese burger...", but then after that we were back to thinking about the movie again.

Please join us for a chat with a really close friend (and another film fanatic), as we talk about a super stylized, animated, crime drama!

All right!
It's time for our first ANIMATED film, and it's NOT for kids, like at ALL!
This week we take a look at 'Princess Mononoke', Miyazaki's 1997 masterpiece!
An action fantasy about balance, nature, and featuring an all star American voice cast!
