  • Aya of Yop City

    Aya of Yop City

    ★★★★

    Got to love how the film was faithful to the graphic novel series' colorful aesthetic and the portrayal/social critique of their life in Yopougon, Côte d'Ivoire. The vintage live-action TV commercials and the music (one of my favorite soundtracks of the year) <3

    U.S. American comics/graphic novels should focus more on developing animated (true to their artwork) film adaptations instead of live-action ones.

    High School II

    ★★★★

    This should be a required "text" for public school educators and high school students.
