Last night Anna was out and I had a chance to clear soomeof the back catalog on the DVR.
1) 2 Ghost in The Shell episodes- I'm a latecomer to this series. Good stuff, and a LOT less abstract than the full length anime. The full length films had a few avant garde interludes that were rather WTF for me.
2) 3 Batman Beyond episodes- One of the best animated features of the late 90's.
3) Rebirth of Mothra I- Good solid Kaiju action, but the story was pretty kiddie movie-ish (it might even be a kid's film, I have not researched them yet). Very high "Kenny Factor" and the kid's voice dubbing was painful. I still have II and III to at least speed-watch.
Still it was nice to dip a toe into my hobby.

I've never seen any of the Ghost in the Shell TV episodes, but I really liked the movie.

They are kids movies, and ehhh they're okay I guess. The 3rd one is pretty good.
