    I believe it is the original one. Also, no dubs, I watch movies in their original languages. I'm just not that into Miyazaki even if I can appreciate the animation and originality; so far the ones that have fare better are My Neighbor Totoro and Spirited Away.

Also, Hollywood should do a Passenger 57 sequel, this time w/Denzel as Cutter
      I watched Passenger 57 the other night just randomly, which is weird that I see it brought up here. It's such a fun movie, and I love the idea with Denzel as Cutter because Hollywood is always remaking these types of movies and casting younger people to play the roles, why not cast someone older for a change? And Denzel, I mean it's impossible for it to be bad with him in it.

      I'm sitting here picturing him saying, "Always bet on black." lol

          Yeah not for everyone, it just hurts my soul lol.

          Good that you did watch the original though. While the story does not differ, many early Miyazaki films that made their way over here were edited because it was believed that Western audiences could not handle long periods without background music. So, the Disney versions end up losing some of the artistry.

            District 9, I saw a reddit thread praising it so figured I’d check it out. I thought it was great, and the allegory was well played. Weird though, Alien is one of my favorite movies ever but I think I saw it too young because any image of an alien is just so...off putting? I dunno, like I can look at it but it’s like I’m almost having to turn away, just seeing his arm was so freaky to me. It’s weird because I can watch Black Noir rip a guys jaw open with no issues in The Boys but as soon as there’s an alien part I’m wincing lol.

              Dial M For Murder and Rear Window are the two that I personally rank above Vertigo, but it's no doubt a classic and one of my favorite movies of all-time.

                Rear Window is probably my favorite if I had to pick one. Simple setup and design, but so damn entertaining and enthralling.

                  Random watching of My Cousin Vinny on Hulu. Really held up well imo. Tomei was so damn cute.

                                Weird, I watched that last night. So underrated. What a great movie.
