1. Spirited Away
I was at least 11 when I watched this movie. It was long released since apparently it premiered in 2001, but I didn't care about that then. It's probably the only movie that has a huge piece of my childhood, cause every time I remember it, I remember how blissful and carefree my childhood was. I remember that time my imagination soared higher than my own sordid reality.
Greatest movie I've ever watched, tbh, and I don't really care about any new movies that have come out, cause none of them will ever replace that chapter of my childhood.
2. Afro Samurai
This is the movie that has ever perpetually kept me on the edge of my seat. I went through an emotional roller-coaster when watching this movie, and it's incredible it could stir up a lot of emotions when I was barely a teenager when I watched it. I still remember the gore that it's encapsulated by, the macabre imagery that inhabits most of it as it commuted me towards a very dark path for the protagonist.
The premise of a Afro-headed samurai, I got to say, has to be genius. And honestly, the character contributes largely to the pride of my African heritage. He brought that cool back for me, and I thought his character had the coolest design, appearance-wise and personality-wise. The sequels that came after the first were tantamount in success. All stuck straight to the plot, and tbh, I would put this movie at no.1 if I had discovered it sooner.
I loved the way it stirred up a lot of emotions for me. From Afro's loss of his father, to his friend, whom he considered a brother, to Sio's undying heartbreak over eternally losing Gino, whom she revived from death with advanced technology, only for him not to be fully back, but only truly seeing him for the first time in the very last moments of her death. That part was where I understood, sort-of, the excruciating pain of losing your loved one.
I think with that movie, I got a whole new understanding of love, and it's thanks to it I'm more appreciative of what I have got.
The elements which I love about the movie are: the accentuation of sibling love, the melancholy behind the pursuit of vengeance, loss, and the consequence of power.
