at least there are people out there that are trying to spread the anime

I guess this is good, but they're two really obvious choices. Surely everyone who wants to has seen Akira and GITS by now?

Which ones would you choose
Millennium dragon would be my choice

Not necessarily on the big screen though, which makes a real difference (unless it's a DVD projection, but for that price I would certainly hope it's not).

Yeah if these are legit theater prints I would totally go if I was anywhere near, regardless of how many times I've seen them both.
