I liked the dub.

First time I've watched this to completion. Fairly predictable, but enjoyable all the same. Nausicaa is such a badass - I'd say she's my favorite female protagonist ever. Miyazaki has always been pretty good about having solid Female characters.

I got a very distinct vibe of Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy, and a Link to the Past with the aesthetics. It's very pretty.

All in all, it's cool how well a film that's thirty years old has still stood the test of time with straight A marks.

I'd be down to read Blindsight, but if anybody's looking for other things to watch, I was thinking Blade Runner (if that hasn't already been done), or Madoka Magica. The latter is...interesting to say the least, one of my favorite Anime series of this past decade, and I just watched the third movie. But I'm not sure how popular of a choice that would be. Whatever you do, though, DON'T LOOK ANYTHING UP ABOUT IT. I'm serious about that.

Kind of how L'immortal ad vitam looks like Blade Runner. ;-)

Haha, fair point. Though to be fair anything that came out/happened before I was born exists in a continuum of "back-then", so sometimes I get it mixed up. :P
