NEW WAVE ANIME

Sky Blue

As 2-D sits dormant here in the U.S., anime continues to evolve in Asia.

Hollywood's Egyptian Theatre, home of the American Cinematheque, runs a continuous schedule of the most eclectic film programming in southern California. The new July-August program is out and there are two animated features making their L.A. debut - and possibly their only big screen appearence - that are worth noting:

Dead Leaves

On Friday August 6th at 7pm is premiere of the english dub of the intriguing Korean feature Wonderful Days, under its new title SKY BLUE. The writer/director of the English dub will appear to answer questions and no doubt explain the plot.

On Saturday August 7th at 3pm, Japan's Production I.G. (Blood: The Last Vampire, Ghost In The Shell) previews their latest film, DEAD LEAVES. This one looks very loopy, fast paced and fun.
