V/H/S (2012)
Loved it
I can understand the criticism this flick is getting right now in reviews and whatnot, but I loved VHS. Very creepy and a great idea that allowed each Director(s) to unleash their creativity in their segments. Looking forward to more from each of them. Some great acting too (some shaky ones too). Helen Rogers, for example, was great (I thought). It was also quite horrifying, to say the least, and perfect for friends to argue amongst themselves once its finished on which segment they thought was the best. If you like horror films or anthology stuff, go see this. I myself am not huge on horror flicks, since most are repetitive and just all around lacking, but VHS felt unique.
Evangelion Shin Gekijôban: Ha (2009)
The Rebuilds are (not) just remakes
Indeed, as the title suggests, this movie surprised all its viewers with huge changes in the original plot, setting it apart from the original, and making it arguably, even better. Since I don't know of many things I could possibly say that haven't already been said about this fantastic Movie, I'll give the basics: The animation is, as expected, amazing. Very polished, vibrant and beautiful. The characters are believable. People can argue about the Main Characters "Whining" and 'Emo-ness" all they want, but I think that the ones who dislike him for that might as well say that they are disliking him because, instead of being the generic Anime Macho Bada**, Shinji is realistic. The other characters are fantastic too, and likable. Even Asuka, despite her attitude. Its a shame that she... well you'll see if you watch. The dubbing, though there are quite a few dub haters out there, as very... VERY good. A huge improvement over the original (But in all honestly I prefer the originals. Its just because of the Nostalgia factor though...) And of course, the endings gigantic Cliff Hanger is killer, and made me squeal for 3.33 to come out already. And I'm sure that 3.33 will be no less if not more amazing than this.
