2) Tag your list (and any reviews for movies on your list) with ani2025 and post a link to your list in the comments on this page. Spread the fun by showing us what films you've unearthed!
3) Watch movies in any order!
4) Write reviews! Short or long, capture those impressions after your viewing, and remember to tag 'em with ani2025.
5) Read other reviews tagged with ani2025. The animation community on Letterboxd is full of friendly folks with interesting takes on all sorts of animated works, big and small.
