Posted by arren18 on 12.20.2023, 07:48 AM: Will there be another film from Ghibli? We all know what's been happening with Studio Ghibli over the past ten years or so. After the release of When Marnie Was There, the studio temporarily stopped all production. Miyazaki had already retired, and soon afterwards, Yonebayashi and others left to form Studio Ponoc, and Takahata died. But it turned out Miyazaki was only done with feature films, so he still made Boro the Caterpillar. And THEN he came fully out of retirement to make a new film. While that was happening, Goro made Aya and the Witch (he'd also directed the TV series Ronja the Robber's Daughter in the meantime) and now Hayao's new film The Boy and the Heron/How Do You Live? is out in several countries.

Posted by arren18 on 01.11.2024, 05:32 PM: Wow, not very optimistic! I guess I see the NTV takeover as something that can help give the studio time to work out a future solution after it didn't really work out earlier. I also don't think it needs to be the same as it was in the past, because I'm not so sure there was ever really a unified goal. It was a vehicle for Miyazaki and Takahata to make whatever films they felt like and try to get other people to make more (although that part was something they always had trouble with).

Posted by arren18 on 01.15.2024, 02:50 PM: I guess I'd like to know what particular examples you're thinking of for the 70s-80s because I'm still not really getting what you're basing it on.

Posted by Alma on 05.03.2024, 10:57 PM: I don't think Ghibli will cease to exist as a brand. Will we get more films from the studio? I think so. Will those films be similar to previous films? Not much at least storywise.

Posted by arren18 on 05.05.2024, 03:49 PM: I feel like my opinion is pretty similar to yours, Alma. I expect there is more to come, but it won't be quite the same, since it'll almost certainly need to be made by different people. And I think it makes sense that there might be a larger committee running the show in the future.
