You have some badass taste too! The very second I sent you the request, I actually thought your profile was from Skyrim. I peeked at your Spotify a bit and spotted Phantogram - peak music taste ; )
The song is on YouTube as Ladybug PV—it was a known test animation for the series. Hope you can add it to your playlist somewhere, it’s a good track and might fit your style.

Thank you for your cool words x

I believe I was able to see your three paragraphs - if that’s what I replied to earlier. It’s a shame that SpaceHey still isn’t a bit more optimized for today, considering how many people still make use of these kinds of forums! D:

Hello!
I hadn’t noticed your comment until now - and what a lovely surprise it was!

I haven’t seen Wolfwalkers yet, though it’s been on my list for a while - it’s from the same creators as Song of the Sea, if I’m not mistaken? Which only makes me want to finally sit down and watch it even more! I hope you can watch it soon, too.

I’m a huge fan of stop-motion films like Paranorman. I watched it when I was really young, so I don’t remember much about the plot. Monster House is another one I love - especially for its humor :) I love that you showed it to your parents! My dad was actually the one who introduced me to those kinds of movies when I was little. I had no idea Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium (2007) even existed - what’s it about?

I’ve got a short attention span too, and I often find myself looking for other things to do while watching movies - in general, I do better with series since I get hooked more easily. I really think you should watch Isle of Dogs. I’m a big stop-motion fan, like I mentioned, and that one’s got such a fantastic variety of characters and traits. Plus, the soundtrack is absolutely brilliant!

When I wrote the second, profile comment I had reloaded the page to see if my first comment (which is in this thread/chain) had posted and it did not... So sorry about that lol. To respond to your reply to my later profile comment, yes these three paragraphs were the ones I was talking about. I can delete that profile comment since it appears the original came out, plus it's functionally spam.

> I watched it when I was really young, so I don’t remember much about the plot.
I would recommend a rewatch if desired! It's still very funny and touching to me to this day.

> My dad was actually the one who introduced me to those kinds of movies when I was little.
That's awesome! I wonder how he learned of these things; it's not often I hear of parents recommending specific movies to kids, even if just by 'seeing bits of it and suggesting it.' My dad has done this with/to me with video games though.

> I had no idea Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium (2007) even existed
Had it not been for my mom somehow watching and getting into it herself, I too would have never known of it.

> - what’s it about?
Without spoiling much, the movie is focuses on a few characters: the toy shop runner who is late in this life; a twenty something year old worker/manager of the shop that has great relations with the owner and wishes for her musical dreams; a newly hired (and joyless) accountant that rejects the whimsical in life; an outcasted child that works at the shop and orbits the accountant; and the toy shop ("emporium") itself, of which is more than a shop in straightforward/diagetic and arguably metaphorical ways, though the latter is very much up to individual interpretation.

Like Paranorman, Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium makes me both sad and jolly; the fact the movie was received pretty poorly by critics and even called a train wreck by its writer makes me wonder if I have unintentionally attached more emotional weight to it than was actually present, or if they (the critics and writer) don't see the movie as I did and do. I think that even just at the 'basic set-design, color, and whimsical' levels, it's really good for a live action kid's movie and maybe even a little more than good; it's hard for me to not see it as something having heart be put into it, but for all I know I could be ascribing more to it than there really is.

Again, I am clearly biased so take my recommendation with a grain of salt.

Christopher Nolan is a magnificent director. I've seen a couple of his movies, including Interstellar and Oppenheimer, which I see are also on your list. Thank you very much for the recommendation! I will definitely look into more of his films and the ones you've mentioned.
