I need to go see it as I've always wanted to go see a Miyazaki film on the big screen.fast wrote:Ponyo - not Miyazaki's best, but it was cute and heart warming. Sadly it did not gain alot from being on the big screen (itll feel the same on a tv). But definitely worth picking up on dvd. Still doesnt top Laputa, Mononoke, or Nausicaa, but it was quite nood.
What was the last movie you've seen?

Wow, I'll definitely have to give them a look then. Thanks for the heads up.Mod_Man_Extreme wrote:Just saw Diebuster and it was amazing!Mod_Man_Extreme wrote:Gunbuster the Movie
Absolutely an incredible experience, the animation, designs, settings, dialog and progression were all top notch. Plus I got to see more of Gainax's pre-EVA works and finally recognised some of the nods made towards Gunbuster all through the series.
A big thanks to DrCirno, for letting me borrow his Blu-Ray (High-Def, Woot!) copy of it thanks a ton buddy!
As for tomorrow I'll be damn sure to watch Diebuster and post up what I think about it!
It ties up all of the loose ends from Gunbuster and was one of the coolest anime movies I've ever seen. Plus it incorporates a lot of subtle nods to FLCL (The Federation, Vespas etc...) that were a pretty nice bump to the fans from Gainax.
Re: What was the last movie you've seen?
It is why I went. I had a chance to see Mononoke, but with only a name I didnt think it sounded interesting - one of the stupidest moves I have ever made.
Spirited Away I opted not to see, mainly since the only theater showing it was charging $15 a head. And for some reason we did not get Howl down here. I would suggest hurrying, Miyazaki hinted this might be his last film, and it wont be in theaters long.

Do it. This was my first time seeing one of his films in theatres and it was a great experience.Mod_Man_Extreme wrote: I need to go see it as I've always wanted to go see a Miyazaki film on the big screen.

Yeah, it's fantastic, plus they made a few huge nods to EVA fans as well such as absolute borderline markers & the 'sync on' sound effect before one of the battles, and a huge 'Dirac Sea' moment.Dylan wrote:Wow, I'll definitely have to give them a look then.

Coincidentally I own Lupin The III: Castle of Cagliostro, which I beleive was his first feature film and it rocks.

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?
He said that for the next few years he is going to be less hands on with the films in all aspects. Though he will have his hand in all of the Ghibili films. He wants his son to take over, but I saw Earthsea, he needs work... Never the less he will always be one of the greatest animators of all time and most of his films will always have a place in my collection.
Re: What was the last movie you've seen?
I really wanted to get Diebuster the Movie on Blu-Ray, but found out it was nothing more than the OVA series hacked into nonsensical pieces. Too bad.
Ponyo is high on my list of must-sees... unfortunately, no theaters around here carry it.

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) is simply brilliant! Romero's films critiqued consumerism and Kaufman's masterpiece critiqued blatant conformity.

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?
Actually it was put together brilliantly and doesn't fell condensed or rushed at all. Both OVA's were originally designed to be compressed into a film at a later date and the films both take this into account and work around the time limitations brilliantly to leave you pretty amazed and completely satisfied with all of the loose ends tied up at the end.the7k wrote:I really wanted to get Diebuster the Movie on Blu-Ray, but found out it was nothing more than the OVA series hacked into nonsensical pieces.
