I don't intend to see it but I haven't exactly wanted to watch a movie in years

@tiffany You should really see Birdman, it's quite the spectacle.
Sunday, 08-Feb-15 23:58:13 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal Nothing about it or any other film draws me in anymore and it's weird and sad
Sunday, 08-Feb-15 23:59:40 UTC from web-
@tiffany Experiencing anhedonia?
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:00:13 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal Literally all the time forever.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:01:07 UTC from web-
@tiffany Sorry to hear that. I unfortunately can't really help but I can definitely relate if it's any consolation.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:04:18 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal I mean... at least I can motivate myself to watch Better Call Saul tomorrow, not to mention my other shows.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:05:04 UTC from web-
@tiffany Yeah, I've mostly just been catching up with shows as of late, though nothing I've been watching recently has been that great.

@northernnarwhal Arrested Development left me disappointed after the Netflix reboot.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:09:13 UTC from web-
@tiffany Recently I decided to try a few episodes of Death Parade since the concept seemed interesting and Studio Madhouse is usually pretty good.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:14:44 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal I have not heard of either of those
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:15:18 UTC from web-
@tiffany It's anime so I don't blame you
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:15:38 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal ahh
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:15:44 UTC from web-
@tiffany I admittedly don't love it but one of Madhouse's better known works as an animation studio is Death Note if that helps put things in perspective. That being said, I really love them for their more experimental works like The Tatami Galaxy.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:21:04 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal I was gonna rewatch Death Note but it's so... like, not childish obviously, but it has that 4kids sort of vibe that I don't like? I dunno.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:22:16 UTC from web-
@tiffany The first half of it is pretty solid but it suffers from really awful pacing and characterization in the latter half. Ending is pretty good though. As I said before, I don't love it, I just think it's alright, but it's really popular so it's a good example. Kind of like saying "Radiohead are the guys who did Creep" in the sense that it's far from their most accomplished work but definitely some of their most popular.

@northernnarwhal When I was like 11 it ("it" in particular being that part in the middle I'm sure you can guess) certainly had an emotional impact on me, but so did the finale of Yu-Gi-Oh. I disliked the dialogue greatly even though I remember it being quite clever in the middley bit.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:27:43 UTC from web-
@tiffany Ultimately I believe the strongest points of the series are its premise (and accompanying moral connotations of said premise) as well as some of the (albeit a bit obvious) religious symbolism. And as I said before, the first half is for the most part pretty great, it just falters later in. Overall enjoyable show though, just not stellar.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:30:42 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal I do remember the second half being lame, but I was 11 and easily bored
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:31:49 UTC from web-
@tiffany While the ending was pretty good (though predictable), I'd honestly say the show went totally downhill after #spoilers
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:33:13 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal I remember that being the point where I dropped off yeah
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:33:44 UTC from web-
@tiffany That's the general consensus among most fans of the series too.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:34:02 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal The next anime I want to rewatch is Bobobo lel
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:35:00 UTC from web-
@tiffany I've never really been into that but I know a guy who likes the manga for it.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:37:30 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal Maybe it gets worse with age like Death Note
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:39:17 UTC from web-
@tiffany I don't know an awful lot about it so I can't say
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:40:30 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal Obviously I don't expect it to be good per se, just enjoyable
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:41:02 UTC from web-
@tiffany Yeah, well whatever works. Not really my kind of anime but you might like it.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:41:37 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal I did before so
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:41:45 UTC from web-
@tiffany That's good, I didn't actually watch much anime as a kid (besides Pokemon if that counts) and have only recently gotten into it.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:42:24 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal Like, I watched Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh and Naruto and then later Death Note and so then I was like "yupperooni I love my animes"
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:43:53 UTC from web-
@tiffany That's all super tip of the iceberg stuff
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:44:29 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal Yeah I know that now

@northernnarwhal talking about death, have you watched shinigami no ballad?
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:16:27 UTC from web-
@mushi Nope, but I know about it.
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:17:04 UTC from web-
@northernnarwhal well, it isnt a master piece, but it was nice
Monday, 09-Feb-15 00:22:37 UTC from web-
@mushi I'll put it on my "to watch" list.
