Jack Nevada Posted July 6, 2012 Author Share Posted July 6, 2012 I've only seen Totoro. Fantastic film though. Oh man, go seek out the rest. They're absolutely brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 All his films are great and have a lot of heart. Difficult to compare them as they are so diverse. Lupin III was the 1st one I saw and it was really entertaining and top notch. My Neighbour Totoro,Porco Rosso, Princess Moononoke, Spirited Away and Howls moving castle also deserve special mention.

Letsuseournoggin Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I haven't seen most of his films in years, so I won't vote yet. I just bought the Studio Ghibili DVD set of 16 films, so I'll be having me some Miyazaki marathons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Nevada Posted September 12, 2012 Author Share Posted September 12, 2012 Man, Miyazaki is a hero of mine. He seems like such a wise man. He's one of the greatest filmmakers alice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goffe Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 okay No, I just meant that the designs and characters of Howl's Moving Castle and Sprited Away arent very similar to meokay :rolleyes:the universe of all his movies looks the same to me (and too wierd), isn't a unique thing like every pixar movie.The villain looks extremely the same in both, the main caracther's personality is the same, the wierd things are copies of each other....

Not the universe per say, but the characters, especially the female characters. Not that I dont like them, but they are similar to each other. It's funny that as a Chinese, I'm supposed to find those characters emotionally more connective than those from western films like Pixar movies, but it's actually the other way around.BTW, my fav Miyazaki film is Princess Mononoke. IMO it's like HIGH above his other works. It got a such grand-scale and epic story, and the score is the best in a Miyazaki film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letsuseournoggin Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 (edited) So I'm currently rewatching the Ghibli films as I just bought the set. I'll give my scores as I watch them.Recently saw the following 3 again:Spirited Away: 8/10 Great film, but I find it a bit overrated sort of in the same way I find Ratatouille slightly overrated in the Pixarverse. Either way, incredible film through the use of a very creative and out there story while giving us beautiful images throughout.Kiki's Deliver Service: 8/10 Awesome film as well, and I much more liked Kiki's character than the protagonist in Spirited. She was what drove the film for me and the simple story worked here very well.Ponyo: 7.5/10 Another solid outing for Ghibli here. Not quite as strong and may be one of the lower ones on the list, but a great, imaginative story.
