#1 "I don't like anime movies."
I'll be honest, my usual immediate response is

There's a reason movies are so bloody successful... well, damn near everywhere.
And whenever people look me dead in the eyes and say that anime movies aren't as good as anime series...
Anyways, would love to hear your thoughts. Do you prefer series to movies? Movies to series? "Whatever is made well"?
Chat about it.
But why the hell not?

So that brings the question to the table... WHY? I can't quite comprehend why people would inherently love an anime SERIES, over watching an anime MOVIE, to the extent that they wouldn't want to watch ANY anime movies.

(But they don't often like that answer.)
And realistically speaking here, the only difference between a good anime series, and a good anime movie, is their length. A lot of people see that length difference as a problem though? In my eyes, they're simply failing to understand that while a show is crafted to be a 4-8 hour experience, a movie is crafted to tell its narrative in just 1-2 hours. Because it's crafted in that way, a good movie will have absolutely no problems getting the viewer invested in the story it's trying to tell. There's a reason movies are so bloody successful... well, damn near everywhere.
And whenever people look me dead in the eyes and say that anime movies aren't as good as anime series...
I wish to strangle some people.
