nicolascagegoons

Probably the most magical trilogy ever.

While it may not be one of my favorite films ever made,its definitly one of the best directed allong with seven samurai.

Its clear that the people behind this film loved the source material and wanted to do it justice and justice they did it.

Heads up but i haven't read the original books but when i hear "fantasty novel" i probably imagine a movie like this.
Its cast is incredible,the music is incredible,the characters are endearing and there isn't much to say that has already been said.
Its awesome sauce.
