I have, I rented Memories at a local Blockbuster when it first came out. I had no idea what it was but, it looked appealing. I actually only enjoyed Magnetic Rose, Stink Bomb was okay, and the last one was boring to me.

I thought the story was really well-made since it came from such a great director.

I agree, the story was well thought out for such a short amount of time and the characters were very engaging.

Yes, that was a very good movie. My favorite part was Stink Bomb, though.

Magnetic Rose and Stink Bomb were the good ones. I preferred Stink Bomb over Magnetic Rose though. The last one was... hmmm... not bad. Kind of boring.

Oh, I loved every one of the shorts in Memories. I thought Cannon Fodder was very good. I respect Kazuhiro Otomo very much. He's a very creative man. makes great stories.

Yeah, I have to agree with that! I liked Magnetic Rose, but I think it's a bit overrated. Stink Bomb was, by far, the star of the show IMO!

Not that you'd be smart enough to appreciate it anyway.

Disagree, I actually thought it was the most cliched and thus most predictable episode. Episode 2 (Stink Bomb) to me was hands down the best episode.

Honestly, none of Memories' 3 stories really impressed me, although I do think it was well made. I just didn't like the messages or found them depressing. If it's shorts we're talking about I enjoyed things like Coicent, Farewell to Weapons, Five Numbers, Gambo, Hoshizora Kiseki, and Possessions more.

I wanted to like this, I really did. The visuals and even some of the plot elements are fantastic. Overall, it fell flat.
Awoo :3

A friend of mine once showed me this video. In fact, of these three productions, only Magnetic Rose exists for me. I consider it a phenomenon and a masterpiece. The scenery, the mirages and so many emotions in such a short time.

I'm feel the same way. Magnetic Rose was so well made and compelling from start to finish. It really feels like we've lost something over the years when things like this just can't seem to be made nowadays.
