Yay Aussies! But alas I am a Sydneysider. XD
Dramas I like to watch ... Akihabara@DEEP, I can watch forever and ever. It's short, sweet and not dramatic XD. It's about otaku and their kick-ass, fighting maid and how they try to fix the problems of Akiba's otaku. There's a movie as well and it's just sweet. haha
Movies: Parade. It's just ... it's about the four characters, basically, and about two weeks in their life after a stranger appears in their midst. A slice of life, dramatic kind of movie and the shenanigans these people get up to. It's slow, for mature viewers for nudity and the like, but it's just ... there's something profound about it.
The Sky Crawlers is something to check out as well.
