I watched Weathering With You today. Amazing visuals and music. The story is pretty cool. I remember seeing some people’s comments about the plot being a bit too complex, but I thought it was fine following along. If comparing this movie to Your Name, there were a number of things I liked better in this one. In short, I thought the characters overall were more interesting and certain details were more amusing to me. I feel that this movie could have been more emotionally impactful if there was further explanation and integration of certain backstories.
This is the second anime movie I’ve seen in theatres, the first being Pokémon: I Choose You. I had wanted to see Promare but it didn’t show anywhere in my area. Glad I had the opportunity to see this one.
I gave in and watched Frozen 2 yesterday. I was going to wait until it was released on Blu-ray, but I wanted to see if it was as good as the original and last night I had a chance to watch it. I liked it, although it lacked the charm of the first one. This sequel just felt like a hollow cash grab more than a natural follow up.
Personally I thought Frozen II was a great sequel, and I liked it better than the first movie. It developed the main characters further and had a more interesting plot imo. The songs also have more significance towards the characters and story as a collective whole.
