It's definitely the same story, including finale and all, so there's nothing new there storywise.

Sha since you are into anime, I was wondering ... are you familiar w/ this other AMV by the same act (Wamdue Project = DJ Chris Brann + writer / studio singer Gaelle Adison+ female vocalist on tour Victoria Blackstone). maybe you'll enjoy this one :
^^someone did a frame by frame remaster of the original vid, which must have taken a lot of work. looks good! the same was done for 'King of my castle' but that one isn't on YT anymore
anime footage from 'Patlabor 2 : The Movie' (1993)
before today I was unfamiliar with both the song and the anime (I know next to nothing about anime)
'Arrival', good scifi. Amy Adams is great here, the plot is intelligent and I like the focus on communication
I don't know the song but it's got a nice groove, the anime is a classic, a cerebral political thriller with giant robots. The writer is Mamoru Oshii who also made GITS among a lot of other excellent films.
Yeah I thought this was really well done. That director has a crazy filmography so far.Quote:

I liked it. good plot and well connected to the graphic novel in terms of characters and atmosphere. but the original graphic novel and the extended cut of the movie based upon it were MUCH richer in ethics : moral choices to be made, which to me was the most interesting thing about the whole storyQuote:

Upgrade - Solid Sci-fi action, pretty good.
'Veep', just something lighthearted in between other shows. I like the pace of the show. Good follow up on story lines spanning various episodes for a comedy show too, it's not just an episode based show like sitcoms mostly are
Fantastic show with a great lead actor. Check out the show 'The Thick Of It' and 'In The Loop' too, they're the UK versions Iannucci made first.Quote:

I have never watched Seinfeld, so New Adventures Of Old Christine was my first time discovering Julia Louis Dreyfus and I have been a fan of her ever since
Never watched Seinfeld?! You gotta watch it man, it's the greatest sitcom bar none.Quote:

A lot of comedies from the 90s really seem dated and old fashioned now, but Seinfeld was way ahead.
Yeah. I think it comes on at eleven o'clock in the evening on WPIX.. Will have to check it out sometime
I enjoyed every last minute of 'The Veep'. Not easy to put believable dramatic moments in a comedy but Julia Louis- Dreyfus (the only dramatic moments revolve around her character) is great at both comedy and drama. Too bad I can't watch Seinfeld again nor New Adventures of Old Christine, which I never saw. As far as I can tell they're not included on any pay-per-view channels round here. Might go for DVDs too somewhere down the line.
Now with watching 'The Veep' after 'Billions' it strikes me how most characters on 'The Veep' and just about everybody on 'Billions' except for a few guys on Axelrod's team I still felt like rooting for all the characters on 'The Veep' while slowly getting disgusted by all the characters on 'Billions'. While most everybody is backstabbing each other on both shows. Is it due to characters being inept for comedic effect on 'The Veep' or is it because there seems deeply ingrained hate woven into the plotlines of 'Billions'? I am clearly enjoying both shows fir different reasons.
