......started and ended in 03

its undead loopy!

As for the thread - only seen Spirited Away and Laputa. I liked both, but prefered Laputa.

(but prefer Mononoke and Naussica overall)

Laputa was quite good, and Spirited Away is awesome (I love those little soot balls and No Face is great, if somewhat eerie). But my favourite is Howl's Moving Castle. Absolutely love it.

I loved Laputa - it was the first anime film I ever saw, all those years ago - and whilst I'm a big fan of everything Ghibli/Miyazaki, my favourite would have to be Princess Mononoke, with Howl's Moving Castle a close second.

You too? I have a Jiji pin badge and a Jiji magnet!

I LOVE that cat!

Also have a Totoro pin badge.

I've seen Laputa, Kiki's Delivery Service, and Spirited away. I think I got a little bit sick of Spirited away, because every time we watched a movie in Japanese, we'd watch that...it just got boring.
Laputa was excellent, and so was Kiki's Delivery Service, though it was aimed at a slightly younger audience I thought.

Apart from those, Mononoke Hime is my favourite. I havn't seen Nausicaa but I really want to. I havn't seen Howl's Moving Castle either but at some stage I think I've read the book that it's based on, and I enjoyed that.

I liked Laputa especially the pirates and thought it was a good one to watch. I also enjoyed spirited away and it is one of his better ones. As for Kikis delivery service i thought it was a good simple movie and actually quite enjoyed it. Still my favourites are Howls moving castle with princess mononoke and Porco rosso after that.

I can't keep track of all these replies right now. I still need to get a cup of coffee...

Of the three, I've only seen Spirited Away, which is by far one of my all-time favorite movies. Of some others mentioned, I've seen Howl's Moving Castle and Princess Monoke, both of which were great movies. Just loved them. I got another one rcently for my son (which we watc hed together of course), called The Cat Returns. That one was also pretty good, if not as much as the others, but it was quite fun.

I've managed to find my latest Studoi Ghibli one The Castle of Cagliostro a lot of the stores don't seem to stock that one.

I had seen clips of it but that was all, looking forward to seeing it when I have a bit more time.

I keep meaning to look for Castle of Cagliostro, after I saw the last fifteen minutes of it when it was shown on Filmfour last year (I think it was last year, anyway). It looked pretty good.

Earth Sea is okay I suppose, that's if you like Ursla Le guin works.

Talysia · 15th June 2008, 03:43 PM

To be honest, I've recently read The Earthsea Quartet, and whilst I liked both, the differences between the book and the anime seemed quite large.
