Aye, a great film.
I wanted to see it for so long, then, last month, staying up late for no reason outher then a lack of any direction in my life led me to discover mononoke was starting in 10 mins on film 4. long enough to get a drink, brush my teeth and poop, then watcht the film snuggled up in bed. I got the subtitled japanese version, which is a shame cos you get distracted from the animation, though it was less eddited, and a supprising amount of violence was left in for a kids film(severed arms stuck bleeding to a tree!)

also, spirited away is beautiful, very haunting and also very cheerful. takes you back to childhood.

akira is different but worth looking for, alot more of an adult aimed film, and also a lot deeper.
