The Last of Us: Long, Long Time (2023)
Straight up the best so far
The episode is beautiful and talks with the game perfectly, the message is mirrored (instead of showing what Joel would become if he doesn't open up with Ellie, it shows what he could be happy with her) but still it's powerful
The music fits perfectly, the lights makes the scenes and the acting is straight up 10/10
Bill and Frank are perfect, the way it's presented their story it's nearly perfect, the only down side to it is that they made love at the first day, but it still was well developed
That episode shows perfectly what the series will be about, will be about humans and how they react to the apocalypse.
Junji Ito Maniac: Japanese Tales of the Macabre: The Story of the Mysterious Tunnel/Ice Cream Truck (2023)
The first one is whatever but the second is one of the best
The first story is confusing, the characters are stupid, even if two of them being kids, it doesn't makes sense for them to trust the scientist but overall don't matter much and feels rushed
but the second one on the other hand gives you anxiety on what's about to happen, still it has it flaws like the father that just live his own child to be alone with a stranger that gives ice cream is hard to believe, but still the ending make it worth it
Overall good episode, it has good direction and sounds, but somehow at the same time that it feels rushed, leaves the feeling that it haven't the time to be developed.
Judas & Jesus (2009)
Not that good but still a bit important and not for everyone
Judas & Jesus is pure blasphemy and that's it, don't expect a funny thing it's not that funny only having 2-3 funny scenes and has many sex jokes that extends more than it should considering is a 14min short film, the beginning it's whatever with that Judas birth scene that surely extends to show that Satan's house is lustful, the movie is quick that's for sure which makes the ending feel a bit rushed but in that case is not a problem, also that final Maria scene was weird to a level that isn't good. But still it's a bit important to animation history, at the time it brought the debate if animation and comedy should have liberty to do whatever it wants or not, but still isn't that good, it's one of these cases where you respect it more than enjoys.
