The AMP Reviews The Place Promised In Our Early Days (2004)

<p>On this episode, Cat and Joe wrap up Makoto Shinkai February by discussing and reviewing his earliest feature length film, The Place Promised In Our Early Days, set in a post-war alternative timeline where Japan is enduring a precarious cold war with Russia. Cat and Joe discuss how this foundational film influences a lot of Shinkai's later successes, and how so many of his recognizable Shinkai-isms started right here. Listen to find out why the AMP team thinks they should steal this movie's concept, re-write it and sell it back to Hollywood for millions of dollars as a live action Marvel-style cinematic blockbuster.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>Available to stream with a CrunchyRoll subscription, available to watch for free on the Anime PH Facebook page or on YouTube, and available to purchase on DVD and Blu-Ray from Amazon.</p>
