Spirited Away - An award-winning anime movie that is said to unintentionally make children who aren't familiar with Japanese folklore burst into tears from incomprehensible fear at something they can't understand. And then parents realize that animation is not stuff for kids.

The Secret World of Arrietty - An Epic (the animated film, not to meaning of the word) movie done right overall...except that it still baffles me how humans can hear the voice of little people so clearly as if they aren't talking to someone only 1/1000 their size.

Children Who Chase Lost Voices From Deep Below - Makoto Shinkai's attempt to remake Hayao Miyazaki's Laputa: Castle in the Sky.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier - Just a movie about two childhood friends who both some how survived all the way until the 2010s with badass fighting powers and try to settle their differences with a game of over-the-top fist-bumping. Oh and there's some big conspiracy about a globally-known organization being infiltrated by a Nazi-like terrorist group, but fuck them because--
