<p>A list to accompany this post, regarding members of the animation fandom who, despite pleading to the world outside Japan to find a market for hand-drawn animation, produce more mature animation that can be classified as "mature", be more open to creativity and originality than just settling for IP and just give animators a chance to shine outside the studio system, rarely engage with or promote the very answers to their quarrels:<br /><a href="https://maxtaro.tumblr.com/post/620392950733602816/i-may-be-the-single-worst-and-dumbest-artist-to" rel="nofollow">maxtaro.tumblr.com/post/620392950733602816/i-may-be-the-single-worst-and-dumbest-artist-to</a></p><p>Use the 'SERVICE' tab and see what films are available where (iTunes, Amazon, Kanopy, Netflix, etc.), and if certain films don't show up, click 'Read notes' for more info!</p><p>(I strongly recommend getting yourself an American account on iTunes and buying a regional gift card to watch anything here that isn't available outside iTunes US, buying a VPN that Netflix cannot detect and using both a VPN and PayPal for geo-restricted Vimeo purchases)</p>

<p><b>Surrealist cinema</b> is a modernist approach to film theory, criticism, and production with origins in Paris in the 1920s. Surrealist cinema is characterised by juxtapositions, the rejection of dramatic psychology, and a frequent use of shocking imagery.</p>

<p>This is merely a personal guide for the bizarre and weird stuff I've been watching or want to watch in the future. It is not based or inspired on any book nor does it have a specific theme. If you're into these kind of flicks, have fun finding new titles.</p>

<p>I love animation. I even studied it for four years at university and came out with an honours degree on the subject. You can imagine then how disheartening it is the fact that the majority of westerners (generally) believe the following:</p><p>“Cartoons are for children”</p><p>This basically creates a catch-22. Western audiences think it because the animated shows and movies being advertised are, for the most part, targeted exclusively at children and families (Disney, Pixar, DreamWorks, Illumination). This leads western studios to become reluctant to make animated movies for anyone other than those audiences because they don't think they'll find a large enough audience. And, to be honest, they probably wouldn't, thanks to the aforementioned perception. My own brother even asks me every so often “Are you still watching cartoons?”.</p><p>Consider this; when was the last time you sat down in the cinema to watch a film and saw a trailer for an animated movie that wasn't family friendly, or made in Japan? I struggle to think of ANY time that happened. Animated movies just don't seem to be on the radar of most westerners / studios outside of Disney etc. </p><p>Aside #1 - I acknowledge we've had quite a few animated tv shows targeteding adults in recent years, but most of those seem to be witty short-form comedies with the same target audience - they sit in their own little niche. Plus Letterboxd is for movies.</p><p>Aside #2 - Anime is obviously a beast. But outside of Japan it's only popular in certain circles and still gets judged immensely. Partly because of the animated form, partly because of the tropes. I know more people who are aggressively not into anime, than are into anime. I see anime as a bit of an exception and it's own niche. </p><p>As far as I'm concerned, animation is imagination and creativity in its purest form. With animation, you could create literally ANY type of film or story - even the sky isn't the limit - and I look forward to the day we break the cycle on that perspective.</p><p>In the meantime, here are some examples of animated movies that treat the form more than something just targeted at children and families. Or, at least they do as far as I can tell... I haven’t seen them all yet! But I'm working my way through them. Possibly with the exception of Urotsukidoji because I’d like to walk away from this with my sanity and dignity intact thank you very much.</p><p>PS – Feel free to send me suggestions or recommendations.</p><p><br /><br /></p><p>____________________________________________<br />BONUS INFO BASED ON COMMENTS AND THIS LIST CATCHING FIRE:</p><p>► Please note that this list is very much vibe-based and from my own perspective. It's is not an exact science, and while they don't always have to be, I do lean towards films that are more off the beaten path, or lean into artistry and experimentation a bit more. You might argue that WALL-E or The Lion King might be more suited to this list than Song of the Sea for example, but in my vibe-check they wouldn't. Disney and Pixar won't show up much on here, as much as I love a lot of their movies.</p><p>► I don't want to dillute the list with too much of one thing, and this is why I haven't added *checks notes* almost every single anime movie ever made. If this was a list of all adult-oriented animated movies it would be 98% anime and I don't want that. I have plenty anime on here, but defintiely going for a balance - anime is it's own thing entirely.</p><p>► Quite a few of these films are perfectly fine to be watched by children, of course, but I don't think any of them are explicitly targeted at children.</p><p>► I've also had a few comments - including, weirdly, one extremely hateful one along the lines of "this list is bullshit, no one thinks animation is for children anymore, get a grip". And to that I say: "disagree, and your comment is getting deleted".</p><p>Fin.</p>

<p>This is a list of all the underground-experimental-visually interesting movies/shorts I find that are available online (links included in notes).<br />In this list are both very well known movies and rarely seen underground ones, in no particular order. </p><p>The movies/shorts here are mostly found on ubu, youtube, vk and on the Solidarity Cinema plex archive, which can be freely accessed by following the instructions on solidaritycinema.com</p><p>If a link stops working, make sure to inform me in the comments. Suggestions are welcome, too.</p><p>NOTE: this list contains a lot of italian movies, not all of them are available with subtitles; it also contains a number of documentaries on political/artistical topics.</p><p><br /><i>With time, I gradually stopped updating this. Every once in a while I come back and add some things. It has become extremely hard to add things, as the lag whenever I edit this list is massive.<br />I hope this has helped someone in any way; for what it's worth, it truly helped me. <br />Cinema has been a realm in which, for my whole adolescence, I have been able to rest. I hope everyone here shares this same feeling (except for a few people).<br />Long live the underground!</i></p>

<p>Excluding films based on anime TV series and the DC Universe series, which are so prominent that they would almost overshadow everything else on this list.</p>
