"And no one understands that comment, because no one understands the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion. Anyone who claims to understand it is lying, including its creator."

I always thought I was too stupid to get it, but apparently it belongs that way.

Well, the latter is certainly true - how else could one explain the success of The Matrix (yes, I know, it does make sense in parts, but altogether, it's a big unconceivable mess of philosophy, special effects, bad acting, not so bad acting, a tangled story and coolness...)

Yes, of course the greatness of Steamboat Willy lies in the point that someone had to have the idea of putting painting frames together like this. But eventually, the idea of using the shortcomings of our own physical perception is even older than Steamboat Willy - would that make a laterna magica the best animated picture? (Because that sort of is the precedent...)
