Last night, I was talking to Brad about Miyazaki movies and ended up watching through some of Kiki's Delivery Service. Now I'm really excited about Ponyo. It came out last year in Japan and just this month on DVD. It'll be out here in America on August 14th.

I'm excited.

    I might pick this up, but I am more excited about Bleach: The Diamond Dust Rebellion coming out on DVD in September.

    He is my favorite director and artist. His movies have the best feeling, music, and artwork. Pure Magic.

    that looked a lot different from the japanese trailer...i mean isnt it about a fish who wants to be human?...guess it sounded too much like the little mermaid. still looks real good though.

    Alamo Drafthouse shows Miyazaki movies once in awhile... Nolan and I went one time when they showed Princess Mononoke. I think they're showing Spirited Away this weekend at the Ritz for their "Brunch Screening". I've only seen Princess Mononoke, but I'm sure Nolan will make me watch all the other Miyazaki movies, including this new one =).

    My friend said this was a really good movie. :D
    He managed to see it while he was in Japan last year. ^^

    I'm excited for it too, I'm also excited, game-wise, to play LBP on my PSP when it comes out, and to start watching/reading Katekyo Hitman Reborn! =u=

    Hayao Miyazaki is a goddamn legend. Whether he's making an epic or just a heart warming children's flick I still love his movies.

    I was about to try to watch this but ended up watching Nausicaa instead. Soon I will watch this though. :)

    I still think "Cat Returns" is the best Studio Ghibli flick of all time,but I plan on watching "Ponyo..." real soon. As far as most anticipated movie,I'm gonna go with either "Inglorious Basterds" (Tarantino) or "Thirst" (Park Chan-Wook).

    I love Studio Ghibli and Miyazaki's masterpieces. Each time I watch these movies, it makes me happy, since it's very unique and imaginative. Ponyo is one of the must see movies in the summer, since it's a great masterpiece. I've seen the movie before in the Japanese language, but I can't wait for the English adaptation to this great movie.

    Ponyo is a good movie. Of course, it was well received in Japan as a Miyazaki film. I need to watch it in English. >_<
    Let's see how North America sees it. In the trailer however, I did see a 4 star rating from a critic. So I'm not worried of it flunking over here.

    Before this comes out, I need to watch a couple of other Miyazaki films I haven't seen. It'll feel better that way.

    You gotta get Nick to watch this with you. Matt Damon is one of the voice actors.
