I thought Let the Right One In was a very cool movie. I think I may have enjoyed it's aesthetics more than the plot.

I adored everything about it, I thought it was an amazingly beautiful movie like few others I've seen recently (foreign films tend to do this a lot as well; eg. The Orphanage). There was an online review that pointed out how beautiful scenes like Eli going into his house uninvited even though she knew it's cause her pain were, and I have to agree. I thought those kids (especially her) acted the hell out of that movie.

I see your point though, because at the end of the day the plot is basically just 'twilight done properly', no?

Actually, I didn't think that at all about the plot. It's the characterization that made me inevitably appreciate the aesthetics above all else. I wanted to know more about Oskar's father and Eli's history, and I understand it might have been a minimalist approach to the storytelling/characterization, but it was the lack of this exploration that took the film down a few notches for me.

I still really liked the movie though.

Well, if you're focusing on Fate/Stay Night Sigs, you should totally make me one with that darling little princess who commands Berserker.

I can never remember the spelling.

Illya? Can do.

I was gonna try make a whole bunch, so I'll add that to the list.
