[ QUOTE ]
I thought the last episode of Futurama was sad too, but that was partly because you knew every minute that the whole thing was over now. [/ QUOTE ] how so? i agree that the last episode is kind of sad in a way, but it's a kind of happy sad. how do you know every minute that the whole series is ending? |

Re: sad futurama :(
It's written along those lines.
And the commentary reminds you too that it's the end of an era of funny. Even if that era was only four years long. |

Maybe you've never seen the episode before! [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
Full Metal Alchemist anime just fxcked up after the 35th episode or so. I like the manga better. I've heard stuff about Grave of the Fire Flies before. Gotta check that out. |

[/ QUOTE ] Yep, it ends as a show at a theater being closed, as I recall. The show, of course, is really Futurama itself. |

[/ QUOTE ] It's unbelievably hard to watch. And the horrible thing is that it's pretty autobiographical, written by the survivor. It's almost impossible to imagine how you could stagger through life after something like that, with all the moral implications compounding the sadness. I can't watch it very often at all. Just too hard to take. Roger Ebert's bit on the DVD is very good. You don't need the extras at all to make sense of the movie or beef up its value, but this is one where the extras are incredibly good and even worth watching more than once. Since this is based on someone's real life war experience, getting some idea of the factual background in the extras makes the film's resonance even stronger -- and it's pretty devastatingly resonant in the first place. |
