   I thought Spirited Away (made in 2001) was awful, so much so that I didn't watch anything Miyazaki made after that for years. I tried The Wind Rises (made in 2013), also found it terrible. However, before those two films, I had seen se

   I'm convinced that a large part of this kind of thing is related to personality. People's ability to get "in the zone" depends on if the level of presentation fits them. I remember in AP Chemistry, some kids just thrived

   My point was that if you aren't willing to memorize stuff before you understand it, you often do worse in school.

   It's just testing and rewarding people who studied for the stupid test, that's all. It also rewards conformist personalities. It reminds me of undergrad calculus, where you had to memorize how to do dozens of types of integrals. Y

   The Final Cut of the movie ruins the original look of the film. I'm amazed more people haven't commented on this. For example, compare the shot of the outside of Chew's lab: Theatrical and Director's Cut versions: http:

    Thanks for sharing your opinion. Probably you could tell from the tone of my comment, but I don't like the movie the way it is. I agree with you that the movie and the book work well together but I wish the movie worked as a standalone

    Thanks for bringing this up. Arthur C. Clarke was devastated at how the movie removed most of the explanations of what was going on, and walked out of the movie during the intermission: "Without consulting or confronting his co-creator

    I also have Generalized Anxiety Disorder but don't have the other diagnoses you have, so please take what I have to say with a grain of salt. I really sympathize with what you wrote. My GAD was getting worse (feeling a rise in anxiety
