Skycrawlers

[Clayton Magnet]

Havent seen this movie, nor do I have much desire too, as I suspect this video encompases the best 10 minutes. Impressive animation and interesting machines none the less

The idea behind Sky Crawlers is that these people are the AI a human interacts with in a computer/gaming console Combat Sim.

It's an interesting concept.

Had a thread about it a while back: http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/off-topic-misc/cool-anime-movie-27764.html

I have read reviews that say its boring, except for the flying sequences (well, youtube reviews dont count for much). Its worth a watch?

Well, I would say it is worth watching. I used to be active in Combat Sims and I can appreciate the interesting perspective of the AI's world.

It's definately a sci-fi/fantasy based storyline and has good elements in the story. It also has great CGI and moves along pretty good.

I'd say go for it

I liked it when I saw it a couple of years ago if that helps.

Have never heard of this before. That was a nice clip. Lots of WW2 design influence in the aircraft, the Japanese Shusui, late model Spit, Langen nase Fw 190. Very neat designs.

I enjoyed Skycrawlers, just wish i could get my hands on the Fine Molds 1/48 kit of the Sanka B, the Shinden lookalike....scarce as rocking horse Sh*t...
