I've started watching Samurai Jack. Man, is this a great show. Every shot feels methodically crafted to eke the most out of its profoundly minimalist style. I also completely love the art style, which looks not quite like anything else I've seen...

Glad you found it: it is well worth the attention. I haven't seen all the episodes yet, but I'm close. They formed a perfect combination of attention to the moment (long pans, focusing on a specific instant, dwelling on the landscape as he passed by), attention to the plot and plot twists, and attention to the stylization.

I look forward to whatever else Genndy Tartakovsky directs. IMDB has him down for Astro Boy [?] and The Power of the Dark Crystal, the sequel to Jim Henson's work [rubs hands in anticipation].
