I just finished watching Sweeney Todd. Pretty good, really, but I always did kind of like Tim Burton. Super-stylish, with nice performances and great music. I've never been especially keen on musicals, but I don't exactly dislike them either, and a good movie is a good movie.

It was so dark, though, even for Tim Burton, and even considering that its premise is so innately dark to begin with. Not a bad thing, mind. But I think I need to go and watch something happier now to cheer myself up~

I also watched Ged Senki, the latest Studio Ghibli film. I had been putting it off because I loved the Earthsea books when I was younger, and because Howl's Moving Castle, another Ghibli adaptation of a precious childhood memory of mine, was pretty disappointing to me. It...wasn't so bad, though. Not one of Ghibli's best, but entertaining enough, and a decent debut for Miyazaki Jr.

Oh, and it really wasn't a good adaptation. XD But I kind of expected that after Howl's Moving Castle, so it didn't end up disappointing me as much. I just tried to view it as something completely different to its source material. And enjoyed it quite a bit for what it was.
