howl's moving castle

[qwertysaur]

I totally loved this movie specially when Japanese anime mixed with Disney works.
you should try watching:
-Princess Mononoke
-Kiki Delivery Service
- Spirited Away
- The Cat Returns

and I'm planning to watch My Neighbor Totoro (23.07% downloaded)

Your list is missing Nausicaä.

Because they clearly knew that I've seen nausicaa 8)

[leilei]

I really like this movie too

I didn't enjoy the stairs sequence though

Miyazaki's films have this amazing duality to them. On one hand, there's this hazy sort of feeling to them. As though you're falling asleep and going into a dream world. And on the other hand, it's incredibly vibrant and exciting and fantastical.

I loved Howl's Moving Castle. Right from the opening scene I thought it was enchanting. The book was great, and the movie is a good interpretation of the book. And definitely, there is imagery used that my own imagination couldn't have come up with and it's amazing to see that displayed through the film.

I couldn't say it any better, so I will quote Miriel.

My girlfriend and I absolutely adore this film.

I give a list that I've watched already
Nausicaä oh my I saw the trailer from youtube and I can't wait to watch it
I guess looking at this thread gives me new anime/movies to watch - keep telling me of more movies LOL

BTW I just watched My Neighbor Totoro about 10 minetus ago and it's lovely movie .. specially the cute little girl Mei oh how I adore her ^^

I liked this movie quite a bit.

I have yet to see this, I dont see how Miyazaki can come close to the brilliance that is Castle of Cagliostro so Im not even going to bother with this film.

I didn't like Laputa - The Castle in the Sky

That's a damn shame, since you're gonna miss out on a very good movie. Guess it's up to you, though.

As someone that doesn't watch very much anime and at first thought I wouldn't like it, I was very impressed.

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

I read the book after I watched it, and definitely enjoyed the movie, but I would have loved a closer rendition. As I understand though, Diana Wynne Jones rather liked it.

"It's fantastic. No, I have no input—I write books, not films. Yes it will be different from the book—in fact it's likely to be very different, but that's as it should be. It will still be a fantastic film."

[Gogo]

This is an excellent movie, but I liked both Spirited Away and My Neighbour Totoro better.

I really don't understand that. You think Howl's might be slightly less good than a different film, so you're not going to watch it? That kind of thinking must stymie your film-choosing process a little, if you've gotta keep watching better and better movies without seeing anything less good...

Yeah, and how can you set Cagliostro as the minimun standard at that?

I mean, it's rare to find a movie NEARLY that good.
