Well Adam,
I have to say I viewed a lot of movies, I also reviewed a lot of them. Most of the time the story was crap, or the story was good but it was told in a way you absolutely couldn't understand. But then, then I saw this movie and man, you really did it. Although the story wasn't a really exciting one or extremely funny or extremely philosophical, it was told in one of the best ways I've ever seen, even some of the short (animated) movies I saw on tv weren't that good. I also really liked your taste. You created a whole new beautiful fairytale-like world, with nice backgrounds, landscapes and extremely well made (frame-by-frame) animation wich can't be compared to any other fantasy story or world I know. You are good...
You are very good,
Banzaiman
