I’ve been meaning to do this feature for a while and given that movie news has been a little on the slow side lately, this is the perfect time.
For those unaware of Studio Ghibli, it’s a Japanese Production studio that makes incredible Animated Movies. Headed by the legendary Hayao Miyazaki, the films Studio Ghibli creates are not just gifts for Japan, but for the world.
Disclaimer: I would consider myself ‘Otaku’ and may like these movies more than normal. Also, according to the Wiki article on Studio Ghibli, ‘Naussica of the Valley of the Wind’ should not be included and ‘Grave of the Fireflies’ should. Needless to say I only followed that list loosely.
Studio Ghibli's The Boy and the Heron from director Hayao Miyazaki has finally been released, and reactions have flood the internet already.
Studio Ghibli bucks Hollywood trends with no trailers or promotional materials for upcoming film How Do You Live?
Japanese animation house Studio Ghibli has been producing films for over 30 years. These are the best Studio Ghibli movies to watch.
I think I'd move the movies around a bit. But damn Gibli makes some great movies. The best animation studio out there right now.
Grave of the Fireflys shook me when I first saw it. It is one of the most powerful films I have ever saw. It would definitely any list of mine.
I have to admit I've never seen any Ghibli movies. I really should fix that. At least give a couple of the more commonly mentioned ones a shot (like Spirited Away or Grave of the Fireflies).
Just thinking about Spirited Away or Grave of the Fireflies makes me cry. Absolutely brilliant.
I'm a watcher of anime but I've never been able to get into Studio Ghibli films. I have no idea why, they just never seem to be all that entertaining to me. It's off putting because all I hear are good things.
