Have to recommend this one, just because it has been one of my favorites for about 45 years.

This book has it all, heroes, villains, loyalty, espionage, action and even true. Also it has such incredible characters and dialogue.

I saw the movie as a kid and I am still traumatised.

Same, but I also somehow recognized that it was actually a great movie. Looking back it probably had a significant effect on me. Never did go back and watch it as an adult though.

Animation and story are both amazing. Traumatizing for a child, I first saw it at 8yrs old I think, but it stayed with me none the less. I have watched it a couple times as an adult, holds up well.

I have heard that a lot the years. Was it Woundwort’s violence or Garfunkel’s song that traumatized you?:P

For me it was the wire trap.
