im sure we all have interesting stories on how we found the movie.
me, i found it on {random streaming movie site} cuz i needed back ground noise to distract my daughter while i was packing. it was in the animation genre, and they listed just by name. i passed it many times browsing this selection, and for some reason, hovering over the poster looked interesting i guess.
i put it on expecting it to be "just another movie" back ground... then at some point, i think during the title song it started intreguing me. by the la seine number i was hooked and just HAD to watch the movie from beginning to find out how things started and all of that.
afte the second rewatch i felt i needed a 3rd one for some reason... after that... i couldnt STOP watching it. ;D

As I stated in the Intro section- a pair of webcomics. XD Room Mates by AsheRhyder, and Girls Next Door by Pika-la-Cynique, both on deviantArt, and both somewhat related (one was inspired by the other XD). They both had a page featuring something from the movie around the time it came out in France. asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-208-La-Seine-267720772pika-la-cynique.deviantart.com/art/GND167-Parisian-Montage-272795410The concerned pages.  I didn't think much of it at the time, though. Then for whatever reason, early last month I went back & reread both comics, and then this time it caught my attention. So I went to Youtube & looked it up, intending to watch the trailer, but I wound up watching La Seine in French instead, out of curiosity of what the song in that first page sounded like. I fell in love right from the start. XD Watched just about everything I could find on Youtube, lamented that neither the Redbox in town nor the library had a copy (I didn't know it wasn't out here yet, at the time), and downloaded a copy off a torrent site. Watched it, fell even more in love, and swore I'd buy a copy soon as I have the money to. XD I've only seen it once so far though, I deleted the torrent after watching it. Kinda regretting it now, but that just means I'll savor it all the more when I finally get my DVD. |

Someone on tumblr had posted a clip of the French La Seine number and I thought it looked very creative and beautiful but didn't realize it was part of a whole film. I thought it was some kind of indie student project that was extremely well done. So I looked it up and surprise, surprise I found AMIP.

my friends and I were sitting around thinking of what movie to watch and one of them went "oh! a monster in pairs is on netflix now!" that was the first time I had ever heard of it so I asked what the heck it was and neither of them really knew, one had just seen a poster in a store and the other said "hadn't you seen all the fan art on da?" I was to busy with school to be actually active on da so I missed that fan art wave  so then he tried to explain what the movie was about to me "its a bout a giant bug in pairs, I think a cockroach?" and I imagine one of the old black and white movies where they film a normal bug scurrying thru a small model of a city "....th-that sounds terrible /: well we can try, I have my iphone to distract me in case its terrible" after awhile we decide to watch the movie. and thus my insanity was born ;D moral of the story is if you want me to watch something tell me its animated first XD |

Rofl XD
Eh, the big fanart wave was back around when it came out in France, late 2011. It's just slowed down to a mere trickle now... Though hopefully with the movie having been released here in the States, it'll pick up again.
