I LOVE going to the Movies, and still to this day too! My very first two Movies I saw theaters was The Master of Disguise and Treasure Planet and it open my eyes (and ears because wow was it loud, when I was little) to go to another new world to escape watch new world from non- fictional to fiction Ive found my favorite go to place, now I've have no idea what was going on with the Master of Disguise just a couple scenes here and there but for Treasure Planet I payed close attention to that and is my favorite experimental disney movie to this very day.
Now seeing an anime film in theaters was another thing I didn't know would happen to me. (even though there was Anime movies in the late 70s 80s and 90s that was been released back then, check out this blog https://letsanime.blogspot.com/2015/11/at-movies.html?m=1)
But on 20 September 2002 my whole life changed. Let's rewind abit…back in my life as a little girl, I was using the internet for the very first time and it was alot to take in; considering that my mom allowed news, pop culture Shop sites and other safe fun kid site I'm allowed to go through while other websites where block by her, but either way I was still starstruck by all the stuff I've found using the internet. And the first place to find was any anime news and to my surprise there were a alot of sites to my liking, especially Anime Web Turnpike and Anime News Network.(they were my go to place) On Anime News Network I saw someone uploaded the English trailer and Japanese poster for Spirted Away: the New Hayao Miyazaki Film (that was huge hit in japan) was coming to America; ive seen My Neighbor Totoro and Kiki's Delivery Service, so I was very excited!
but not just that, but this was going to be my very first Anime film I will in theaters.
I remember that day. I beg my parents to go see this movie (Mostly my dad) and since it was on a weekend it was perfect for me and him, so he accepted and as we got ready and drove to our local AMC theaters and we made it, we had to double check on why there were so many people at the mall, came to find out: there all ready to see Spirited Away too! So we hurry to the ticket booth so they won't sold out and manage to get them early, and we found out the cars outside and all went inside the mall and were waiting on the last moment to get the tickets and get food from Concessions so they can skip the movie previews (By the way if you ever try that on me we can't be friends; you're supposed savor the moment, not rush them!) Anyways, we got our Consession food ready (Dad: just popcorn smothered with butter Me: popcorn with M&Ms on them or just other food and snacks of my liking was my go to.) Once we sat down getting ready for the movie and saw the third movie preview more people came and it was almost full!
when all the previews were all over the movie finally started: And it was spectacular!! I wish I can tell you my favorite scenes that put me in a trance but we will be here all day (Ive fell in love with The train scene and every dragon scene) and once the movie over; aside we both agreed that was best one yet (aside from: Princess Mononoke and NausicaƤ) the ride back was quiet not awkward quiet, but overwhelmed quiet...and try to remember the animation, the characters and the memorial music and trying to see which one was the best part, and so I just figured...the whole movie!
From that moment. I want to see the next new Anime Movie in theaters: from Original creations, re- release that were not shown in America to even Shonen Movies (Yeah! Yeah! Nag all you want: Cannon or Not! Im going to see it because it's fun!)
