Warner Brothers set to make new Akira
bryanthelion:
I like that mentality actually. It makes the movie more re-watchable.

I think you're mixing up the difference between "need to watch it more than once" and "is enjoyable upon repeated viewings."
There is no upside to a movie being so inpenetrable that you either need to watch it repeatedly or delve into another source material to enjoy. That is, bluntly speaking, the mark of a shitty movie.

...Or you just didn't understand.

I think what bugged me was that I didn't understand the movie, and I didn't care.
Usually, I'm cool with incomprehensible films - hurrah for ambiguity and all that. With Akira, though, I didn't get it, and I didn't have the slightest desire to dig deeper into the world in order to figure it out. I didn't find it compelling or even coherent.
It just wasn't my thing. Good animation, though.

Apparently, neither did you...
