I have realized that I am a dork of epic proportions.
Just a little background: I used to be really obsessed with anime and Orlando Bloom. Those obsession eventually led me to JE (don't ask me how) so I blame them for my current fangirliness.
But anyway, the most recent movie that Orlando was in was New York, I Love You. He was only in it for about 7 mins so I just downloaded that clip to watch for now. And while scraggly Orlando is adorable and I really liked his character, there was something else that captured my attention.

Look to the left side, at his ginormous flat-screen TV. He's watching Tales from Earthsea/Gedo Seki!!!! For V6 fans, you probably know that Okada voiced the main character. For Ghibli/Miyazaki fans, you probably know that this was his son's first directing project.

And trust me, I broke out my copy of Gedo Seki just to confirm that I was right. Which was unnecessary because they used this as a transition in the movie:

To make it even better, they made Orlando's character a Death Note fan.

Bravo, director, bravo!!!
