    Dr. Mabuse, the Gambler

    ★★★★½

    "You're right, Countess - nothing in the world is interesting for any amount of time... except for one thing: Gambling with people and people's fates!"

    Really cool film
    Watched one part per night

    Genuinely quite exciting
    Part 1 is much more of a slower buildup of psychological intrigue, and then Part 2 turns up the action to an impressive finale

    It plays out almost like the prototype of a gangster movie or heroic bloodshed shootout, for 1922 it's really cool…

    Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX -Beginning-

    ★★★½

    "I can see time..."

    Okay so I have some slightly mixed thoughts but this was fun

    Mostly I'm just slightly confused at what the setting is trying to get at here
    Like it feels like we have a setting and a premise from two different series mashed together in a slightly odd way
    Kinda feels like they looked at Witch from Mercury and thought "how can we have the duelling premise but also do something with a new Universal Century…

    Legend of the Galactic Heroes: Overture to a New War

    ★★★★

    My Conquest is the Sea of Stars was good, but just kinda felt like watching the pilot episode to a TV series (which I mean I guess is what it is, but still) - not that it was bad or anything
    Overture to a New War, on the other hand, by virtue of its longer running time means we get to spend a lot more time seeing the personal moments in the characters' lives, which gives everything a greater impact…

  • I Am Sono Sion!
