Yo, welcome! I'm assuming you're an IMDB refugee?
Re: Hello There
That's right, I believe we talked briefly over at IMDb- assuming you're the same Gendo, that is.

Re: Hello There
Hey Raxi.
FYI for everyone, Raxi is the first refugee I've invited from the Evangelion board. He's good peeps, despite his lacking a soul, which I discovered when he admitted his apathy towards Studio Ghibli.

It's like one of Geekdom's 10 Commandments: Thou Shalt Worship Ghibli. You're lucky I let you off without a public stoning.Raxivace wrote:Lol I'm never going to live that down, am I?

Re: Hello There
You know I can't help but wonder if I wouldn't be quite so distasteful of Ghibli if it felt like the only anime a lot of cinephiles seemed to not immediately reject, if only in comparison to the stuff from more "disreputable" genres I tend to prefer.
I'd like to think I'm above such biases, but I know better.

Re: Hello There
That I can sympathize with. Still, I can't blame Ghibli for the ignorance and biases of cinephiles. At least SOME anime is appreciated, and that can always act as a door-opener that might widen the more Ghibli becomes entrenched in the canon and the more young cinephiles use it as a gateway into other anime.

Re: Hello There
Hi Raxivace! Thanks for letting me know about this place just in the nick of time - I tried to log in to IMDB just now to check your latest PM only to learn that the place was NO MORE. The end of an era.
And hello there, Yojimbo.
I think it's time I finally did watch Evangelion...

Hi, maz! Great to have you here too. Wonder if any more of the old General Chat regs will join us?
