Gandalf the White - The Return of the King (1980)

Update nobody cares about coming thru! 🤪

OCB is going on hiatus indefinitely. It's just not fun trying to write a joyous story based on someone who's determined to be pessimistic rn. Instead, I may just focus on Eyes of the Beholder for now since I've already started scripting the first episode. And since it's an angsty fantasy WIP, I have a fun stop-motion project that I'm gonna be scriptwriting beside it! Will reveal more details on that one later. 😉

The fun thing about how American fandom culture seems to have settled the perennial What Is Anime debate by deciding in favour of "anything that was physically animated in Japan is anime, regardless of any other dimensions of its production" is how it interacts with all those American/Japanese and Canadian/Japanese co-productions from the 1970s and 1980s. If applied with an even hand, this rule would oblige us to conclude that the 1977 Rankin/Bass adaptation of The Hobbit is anime, which is both ridiculous and objectively correct.

The attraction was immediate and palpable!

The Miraculous Horror of Stop Motion

From the same artform that brought you Coraline and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, comes three stories that evoke the existential fear of art.
