Recomened me some Japanese movies with English subtitles

I like sci-fi and fantasy

I do like comedy anime when it's mixed with slice of life but I'm not sure if that will If I will like movies like that

If you haven’t seen the recent Shogun tv series - I’d recommend that.

+1 for House.

Perfect Blue by Satoshi Kon is fantastic.

The first time I saw that movie, it messed with my head. Definitely worth a watch.

Casshern (the 2004 live film not the original anime)

I think I saw "One Cut of the Dead" with subtitles on a plane, so I assume subtitles are an option. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7914416/

I didn't expect to like it, but ended up liking it by the end of the movie.

If you liked Squid Game, consider Oldboy

Squid game is Korean and I saw clips of that but could never get into it as It didn't interest me at all

It also feels like the internet over-hyped squid game past what it originally was

It was good, but I don't ever want to watch it again. Same for Oldboy. And I'm not in for season 2.

I'm aware it's Korean but I stand by my comparison.

Anime Sci-Fi classics that you might already have seen:

Akira (1988)

Ghost in the Shell (1995)

If you're ok with abstract cinema:

Tetsuo the Iron Man (1989)

Visual appeal:

Metropolis (2001)

Not Sci-Fi, but one of my favorite films of all time:

Cure (1997)
