I am continuing my animated movie streak. I watched another foreign anime based movie that has great reviews. Akira was a great sci-fi movie. I can see how it influenced many movies that have come after it. The influences on Matrix & Chronicle are really evident. Overall the movie was sometimes a little hard to follow but definitely worth the trip.
My daughter daughter daughter sick with a fever so I did have to stay home with her all day. We played some games and did some other fun stuff, but we did manage 2 movies in there as well. I am totally counting them because I have fallen way off my movie a day pace.
First up was one of her newest favorites, Delhi Safari. This movie recently came on Netflix and follows the story of a leopard. It is almost unwatchable from an adult perspective. She loved it though so I tolerated it for her.
The second movie was Lion King. Arguably the best animated movie of all time. It has been a long time since I watched this one. Ever since it got the number 1 seed in AMC Movie Talk's animated movie tournament I have wanted to revisit this movie. Of course it was awesome. My daughter loved it as well. However the tastes of a 6 year old are terrible as she preferred the Delhi Safari movie. I can only hope her tastes will evolve as she gets a little older.
Using the app MyFitnessPlan to track caloric intake has been working wonderfully. It makes me wonder how many calories I was eating previously. My current limit is around 2000 calories a day. I have stayed pretty well within that range this week and the pounds continue to melt off. So hopefully I can continue the simple formula of walking twice a day and tracking calories for awhile.
Overall Akira gets a 260 out of 291.
Delhi Safari gets a 100 out of 291.
Lion King gets a 270 out of 291.
