If you're unfamiliar with it, Cowboy Bebop started as a sci-fi television series (which is also fantastic), and later had this movie made to cap it off.
You don't need to have seen the show to watch the movie, and it's not a bad way to introduce yourself to the series, as it does a good job of introducing the characters and works as a standalone story.
Thought this would be a good one to post for the halloween theme, since the movie takes place during halloween :D
Link to movies on YT or DailyMotion or Invidious or PeerTube or Piped or Wikiflix (wikiflix.toolforge.org) here. We all need something new to watch.

Even if you've already seen a movie before, take a moment and tell us what you think about it, what's good / bad / etc... I'd love to see more conversation around the films we share here.

I watched the whole series a while back and enjoyed it immensely. I recently started watching the universally derided Netflix live adaption, and I have to say, for all that it's definitely weaker then the original show, I enjoy seeing some of the same stories and definitely the characters in a live action format. I feel the actors for the primary roles got their characters mostly right. Sometimes, the show even gets the vibe from the original series. Rather than hating it, I'm just seeing it as a lost opportunity on the part of the riders and showrunners.
All that being said, I never did watch the movie so I guess this is my cue to go ahead and get that done. If it's anywhere near as good as the original series, it's going to be well worth it.
