I sat down and watched Tokyo Godfathers tonight in his honor. Absolutely loved it.
Tomorrow: Paprika
I didn’t really like his wackier stuff, but I loved Tokyo Godfathers and Millennium Actress. Such a shame, there could have been plenty more films like it…
Share your thoughts on Paprika with us. And get the soundtrack! It’s sweet.
I don’t usually cross-post, but you all might be interested in his final blog entry, which I talk about over in MPSIMS. He wrote a lengthly document for his final words and farewell.
That’s funny because last night I watched Paprika in his honor and tonight I’m going to watch Tokyo Godfathers. 
Thoughts on the movies you two watched, then?
Unfortunately, I haven’t found time to rewatch TG yet, but as for Paprika; I’ve watched this anime drunk, and I’ve watched it sober and loved it either way. I really don’t want to spoil the movie for those who have not seen it, but the insanity parade alone is a good enough excuse to see this work of art.
Oh and that scene where Paprika gets “stripped” from her inner self. 
Not a fan of Paprika just because I’ve seen too many anime end by turning the main character into an all-powerful being who has to settle some decision (an equivalent to deus ex machina, except that the character is the deus). All of his other movies are fantastic, though. I can’t think of anyone (over the age of 18) to whom I wouldn’t feel safe recommending Perfect Blue.
