Toy Story (1995)


































  Woody, a cowboy doll sees his life as Andy's toy getting out of control as Andy gets a new toy for his birthday ; an amazing new spaceman figure, Buzz. And if that wasn't enough, Andy is moving out and Woody has to make sure he remains his favorite toy...
  John Lasseter, devoted to the animation genre is responsible for the first cinema craze that swept over many kids back in 1995 and I am glad to be one of them. The concept of Toy Story to this day has me amazed, as even now the chance of toys communicating with each other and collaborating strikes me as utterly unreal. And it's even more thrilling (especially as a kid) when these toys have unique personalities, they are goofy and funny and have strong friendship bonds and sworn enemies. 
  Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Don Rickles and many other well-known actors give life and their voices to the characters of Toy Story and the result is really something. The humor throughout the film is appropriate not only for kids but also for adults who can find saucy spots! Now that I think of it, maybe I should watch again all the films I liked a kid. Maybe there's more saucy spots hiding from my lost innocent mind!
Must watch this : if you are a kid, nag to your parents to let you watch this (again if you already have) and watch it again when you hit 18. If you're grown up (my condolences), watch it again with your primary school friends from the days of yore. In each case, after the film go to McDonald's for a Kids Menu and get nasty with ringing doorbells and running away.

Rango (2011)


































  Rango, an "ordinary" pet chameleon, finds himself in the Mojave desert, in the town of Dirt, after an accident.For the first time, Rango gets to interact with other living creatures and has to find his true identity while trying to put an end in the misery of his fellow townspeople.
  Gore Verbinski's previous is indeed a bit on the childish side but this film, however juvenile it may seem it holds some serious lessons for adults in it. Through beautiful, fully-digitized animation techniques, Rango manages to get through his messages and create a good-vibe atmosphere for both kids and grown-ups. Extra points for the cheesy old Western films references!
  Johnny Depp in yet another one of his roles as an aloof and weird personality. He is quite enjoyable as the goofy lizard trying to pose as a real man-lizard and so is the rest of the cast; Isla Fisher, Ned Beatty, Alfred Molina, Bill Nighy and Stephen Root. It's also amazing in these films that each character gets to look like the actor-actress that gives their voice for this character. I guess technology never seizes to amaze me.
Must watch this : alone or with your friends for some quality time! Spend time to make a good dish and enjoy with the film and a cold Desperado beer.

Wizards (1977)


































  A magician as old as time lives in the peaceful part of his world but soon his evil brother starts planning to spread the chaos and doom and declares war. The good magician gathers up his team and attempts to restore peace and the balance of magic and technology...
   Ralph Bakshi's unique style is something out of the beyond. Considered by some the epitome of his work, Wizards is a funny psychedelic trip through an dystopian land which is divided to two parts; a normal natural part where all the magic creatures live and the nasty part where radiation has led to the creation of mutants. Allegories every second minute and an open connection of the bad guy to Hitler makes this film a delicious food for thought and a real treat for the eyes!
  The animation is really something spectacular in this film. I could not help feeling amazed at how warm and yet trippy all the scenes appeared. It is an 80 minute homage to a selection of drugs unknown to humanity now that helped create anything of the third eye we have now. For any fan of animation, this is a classic!
Must watch this : definitely as high as a kite on a rainy and gloomy afternoon!

Chicken Run (2000)


































  The chickens at a chicken farm have unsuccessfully tried many times to escape from their prison. Their owner has plans of turning the farm into a meat-processing factory and when a fancy rooster arrives by chance at the farm, the chickens find in him their savior...
  Peter Lord and Nick Park (Wallace and Gromit) are responsible for this masterpiece! Using innocent humor but for gloomy situations, this film manages to amuse children as well as grown-ups. Primarily being an escape film with the obvious twist, Chicken Run will have you laughing with the chickens' generic reactions but still in the end you are left with some food for thought about animal treatment (well, not so much you fuckin' hippie)!
  Borrowing the voices Mel Gibson, Julia Sawalha, Miranda Richardson, Benjamin Whitrow, Lynn Ferguson and a bunch of other talented people, this film offers small doses of British humor carefully handled to fit children too so don't expect anything lewd or malevolent. Nevertheless, since you are an adult you can always use a different angle and this film will suddenly surprise you!
Must watch this : on a scorching hot summer day evening! Spend the day at the beach with friends or at the pool (or both), then chill out in the sun with beers and cigarettes and at night enjoy this film with a big barbecue dedicated on chicken! That's life!

Akira (1988)


































  2019. Neo-Tokyo. A biker gang consisting of high school students frequently clashes with another gang, creating violence and anarchy. Gang member Tetsuo will soon find out about his psychic powers and a governmental operation looking out to kill him. Tetsuo soon reaches the maximum of his potential and confronts his gang's leader, Kaneda, while Neo-Tokyo is being demolished.
  Written by Katsuhiro Otomo and Izō Hashimoto and directed by Otomo, this anime film is considered to be a breakpoint in anime and manga culture. Combining cyberpunk elements with sci-fi ideas in a classic manga style, Akira is a considered a reference in all anime creations after it. Not being a manga fan myself I have to agree that this is a trully good anime film. It can really put you in the mood of the manga genre even if you are a noob for it.
  Excellent old-school manga work done here! I don't find modern manga style attractive at all, but in this film the writers and sketchers really provide a high-end piece. The film is elevated to another level with its story, providing enough food for thought to last for days. High quality animation and character development, this film is a must-see.
Must watch this : in original Japanese audio for originality, on a chill November evening with noodle soup and some cranberry juice.

The Haunted World Of El Superbeasto (2009)


































  Based on the comic book by Rob Zombie, this film follows El Superbeasto ,celebrity ex-masked wrestler, and his sexy sidekick sister Suzi-X as they try to prevent Dr. Satan from taking over the world. Their mission is blocked by Nazi biker zombies and other monsters in the weird world of Monsterland.
  Rob Zombie's attempt on directing an adult animation film actually pays off. This is a raunchy trip into imagination and exaggeration, filled with exploitation parts from b-movies. Abundant sex and non-stop cheesiness, cameo cult figures, tongue-in-cheek intermission songs...That's my idea of adult animation!
  You gotta love the work on the voicing here. Especially that of Rosario Dawson. Black gangsta hoe voice for a white stripper bitch? Priceless. Tom Pappa, Sheri Moon Zombie, Paul Giamatti and Brian Posehn give life to the rest of the cast in their own way, respecting the filthy beauty of this film! Must watch, unless you get offended too easily.
Must watch this : after you have watched hundreds of B-movies and exploitation in order to test how many cult references you can identify in this film. Watch this with a cappuccino, on a Sunday afternoon after a night of hardcore partying!

Fantastic Planet (1973)


































  Animated film aimed for adults.Set in a fictional planet where blue-skin human-like beings reign.They possess advanced technology and knowledge and treat humans either as pests or adorable and trained pets.But soon their reign comes to an end, as one tiny human manages to escape his clutches and get his hands on the ultimate knowledge.
  It should be called Fucked-Up Planet in the Universe of Psychedelic Drugs ! This is a highly allegorical animation film about humans and knowledge (it is also supposed to be based on the Soviet Occupation of the Czech Republic). Either way, it is justifiably considered the masterpiece of René Laloux. The sketches may seem simple and the motion too slow but the film does not fail to deliver an optically exceptional result!
  Not much to say about acting here (duh!) but you should watch this with undivided attention.It grabs you and takes you in this planet so care not freak out! I could say this is Jodorowsky in cartoons!
Must watch this : without lights but only a candle, at night with two people with whom you can share some allegorical explanations! Then listen to some Om while you try to explain this film!
