I watch too much stuff and proceed to reference that stuff too much.

This bit had me pissing myself. The animation and voicework is so naturally funny.
UY's reboot doing "essentials" meant you mostly got the important/character-driven stories, with few of the simply fun one-offs.
Ranma feels better paced, giving its characters equal focus through blocks of episodes.

Continuing from yesterday, my favourite OP from the ORIGINAL Urusei Yatsura is "Dancing Star".
Not only does it capture that relaxing yet quirky atmosphere I love from the show but the syncing of music and animation is at its most satisfying.
Plus, it helps it's just really catchy.

Been watching through the Urusei Yatsura reboot and this first OP has especially stuck out to me as my new favourite from the franchise.
The manga panels and montage feel like a celebration of the series, while it still works as a lively introduction to the mayhem for newcomers.

I love how creepy the Billy and Mandy credits are.
The music is calm but also aggressive and twisted. And there's that unsettling grain and fog that obscures those tarot cards.
Like the show itself, its eeriness comes from a surreal weirdness instead of anything outright scary.

There are very few movie scenes I love more than the opening to A Shot in the Dark. An unexpectedly mature way to start a goofy slapstick comedy, with that sombre song backing the whole thing.
Visually impressive, too, with only four long shots in four minutes.

'Golden Eggs' is an unusually screwball Disney short that shows how versatile Donald was as a leading man. Some great absurdist gags throughout.
The hysterically manic movements and zany expressions here are only strengthened by the strong musical timing.

Yep, everything's as it should be, including all of Jerry's dialogue.
And to prove it, another comparison, just because I never miss the chance to show off one of the worst pieces of censorship I've ever seen (you can literally SEE HIM).

Another highlight is finally getting to hear Bradley's frantic score (one of my favourites) in a higher quality AND the correct, non-PAL pitch. Here's a closer comparison.
Let's hope this recent release is a sign of an upcoming blu-ray. [2/2]

Incredibly happy the 'Mouse Cleaning' restoration has finally been (partially) released.
As one of my favourites, I've watched this one a ton on the Classic Collection (as far as I know, the only DVD release), so it's surreal seeing it so vibrant and clean. [1/2]

The animation in 'Thru the Mirror' is masterful, turning what could've been another generic 30s dance routine into one of Mickey's best moments.
There's so much mesmerising fluidity and personality in each movement, with all its stretchiness.
