Re: Hiyao Mawasaki - ( Studio Ghibli )

The ones I've seen were great, and I'd like to see Porko Roso, about a bounty hunter if memory serves me.

take it easy baby take it as it comes

Re: Hiyao Mawasaki - ( Studio Ghibli )

......yes. My brother has it, i think. yikes ???? And he is a guy who is a bounty hunter that has a curse on him. He looks like a pig. It's quite sad, but funny at times. He flys about in a red italien fighter.


Thanks for your comments guys/ draco ( newest one tongue smile )

Spirited Away
Howl's Moving Castle - has anyone read the book(s)? 
Kiki's Delivery Service - which was the first one I ever saw, a long time ago on Disney, and would probably have to be my favourite
Princess Mononoke
Porko Roso
Are all the ones I've seen.  Love them all.  There's something about the worlds, all these different times and cultures rolled into one...and the stories are great.  Very complicated and complex at times, but the message is always so simple and just lovely.

Re: Hiyao Mawasaki - ( Studio Ghibli )

Spirited Away is a great movie. When I saw it it caught me totally by surprise, I wasn't expecting a movie like that. Really cool, haven't seen those other ones though. Only heard of Kiki's Delivery Service.

I read the first one. It wasn't great, but it was far from bad.

It's aimed at children, yes?  I'll probably end up buying it at some point, another book (or two) to add to my collection.

Just read the summary on IMDB, sounds very cute....I'll have to check it out.


I would like to hope that everyone has some child in them.

There's more than one?
I liked the book better than the film, but they were both entertaining
Otherwise, I've seen:
Kiki's Delivery Service
pieces of Castle in the Sky
Nausica of the Valley of the Wind
Princess Mononoke
Spirited Away

Miyazaki isn't my favorite, and I can't sit through an entire movie, but he's definately good.

I'll abdicate at the drop of a hat
