What is your deal. I made a mistake. I thought Disney partially owned the company since they bring them out here. Is that so crazy to think a company like DIsney couldn't own them.Originally Posted by Opaque
1) Wings of Honnemaise IS boring. But that lift off scene is beautiful. And there is a near rape scene, tho no tentacles were involved.
2) I Can Hear The Sea is soooo good. I really enjoy anime like this.
3) Whisper of the Heart is my favorite Miyazaki film and I can't believe they're bringing that 2nd rate Cat Returns out before the original beautiful gem.
4) Pom Poko rocks because it has Super Tanuki Testicular Action in it. I wonder if that one will ever see the light of day here... But seriously, it's one of my favorite Ghibli movies, badger balls and all.

Go away?
If Whisper of the Heart is your favorite Miyazaki film you might be interested to know that it's actually directed by Yoshifumi Kondo. Miyazaki wrote for it just like everything else Ghibli has done, but it's style is a direct result of Kondo.
I actually resurrected this thread because I just watched both of those movies and they're incredible, but I especially liked Cat Returns because of the comedy and it's execution; right when the Cat secret service threw a stray into a bush I was already in love.

Everytime I go to Chinatown, I pass by a HUGE box set of Ghibli movies. I know it's not legit, but I'm damn curious. Pirate VCDs, I'm guessing.
HMM.
I love these movies. Bought all of the US R1 versions on release day each time.
in R1 (i think this is all of them so far)
Princess Mononoke
Grave of the Fireflies
Cat Returns
Pom Poko
Porco Rosso
Spirited Away
Kiki's Delivery Service
Nausicaa
Castle in teh Sky
Whispers of the Heart
Howls Moving Castle
My Neighbor Totoro
My Neighbors the Yamadas
Lupin III - The Castle of Cagliostro
Only one I havent watched is Whispers, so Ill get right on that
If you want to get a bunch of them all at once, Borders has an exclusive boxset (Nausicaa, Castle in the Sky, Totoro, Kiki, Mononoke, Spirited Away, and Howl):

once in awhile, borders will have a 40% off box sets coupon which works on this set too
only difference in this set and the normal releases is they dont have slipcases, but most of the slipcase versions are sold out most places anyways
