Another fine selection for this year's festival. No EVA 3.0, we get that in theaters in January. Gatchaman was a hope too, sigh.
Some notable films playing for TTDILA's taste include: Library Wars, in a dark future Japan the law allows books to be censored by being destroyed. Rebels forces together for an all at war over books. Not some little hissy-fit, think war movie action.
Library Wars
Apology King comes from the man behind the hilarious Maiko Haaaan!!! . Comedian Sadao Abe will be teaching hot to apologizes to those in Japan who have big problems, it looks to be a surreal comedy that you can't miss.
Nobody's Perfect follows a grade school teacher who has no arms and legs based on a autobiography from someone who really became a teacher with no arms and legs.
Japanese posters just try and be exciting, the only way to get a decent poster in America is if Mondo or Gallery 1988 do them.
