Cowboy Bebop, 1998

Being a TV series and an animation, made in Japan, Nobody in US knows much about this brilliance of TV series. This TV series influenced so many things both media, music and the way of life. Very few film or TV series has this much of magnitude of influence. Only movie I can think of is Original Star Wars. Highly stylish and futuristic in general. ( it happens in a near future and its setting is mostly outer space.) overtone of the film is very dark, bitter and often cynical. Characters comes to life much better than the Firefly (which is something no one can do.) And I believe that the Firefly is heavily influenced by Cowboy Bebob. Yoko Kanno's soundtrack is simply amazing and almost divine intervention and can only be compared to Ennio Morricone's work on Cinema Paradiso. Combination of artistic direction, storyline, and the music score consist of 4cd releases makes this Classic, the best made TV series til 2012. I do not think anyone from anywhere (including Hollywood) can top this. And makes this jewel of a series one of the most important TV series in film history.
