Posted by Jiji on 01.24.2005, 09:19 PM: Miyazaki/Takahata - which movie is the Best of the 80s? As UO made a poll on the Ghibli thetrical releases of the 90s, I think I may as well post one for the movies of the 80s. So which do you think is the best of all? 8]

Funny though I did not have much feelings after seeing it for the first time when I was 10 ("ok that's cute, but nothing more". But when I grow up, I have more chances to see the movie. The more I see it, the more I understand its subtlety and beauty, and the more I like it. Eventually it supercedes all other Miyazaki works and gets to the top of my movie list.

Posted by Azhur on 02.20.2005, 04:30 PM: In my opinion Grave of the Fireflies is the definate 80-90's favorite Ghibli-film. The characters in GotF are one of the most sincere ones I've ever seen in any film. That's mostly because of the small details, regarding how Seita and Setsuko behave, and another reference point is the extremely realistic dialogue. When these already strong elements are combined into a fluently advancing story, every scene counts as a one whole theme in the movie.

I think it’ll always be number one, because if you don’t know Totoro, you’d never know what Ghibli is. Kiki’s also something gorgeous, you really need to watch this movie when you grow up enough

Posted by Roarkiller on 03.26.2005, 09:52 AM: Takahata's movies are more mature, and I doubt even some adults can even begin to fully appreciate his films. Hence they always put Miyazaki's movies on a higher level. In reality, GOTF, which IMO is Takahata's most accomplished work in his time in ghibli, beats quite a number of other ghibli films, including Miyazaki's.

Posted by biker_brat on 04.05.2005, 06:57 PM: I was wondering if anyone could translate all of Ghibli's films boxoffice earnings in Yen to American or Canadian dollars. I know that boxoffice isn't very important but ive just been wondering how Ghibli films have done in the past. Any website I go to to check this is either in Japanese or features only Yen. So thank you! |
