Waffleman_ posted:I just realized this week is the perfect time to start the challenge because How Do You Live comes out in 12 weeks and it's his 12th movie. One a week. my tiers:  The challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to watch the Miyazaki directorial canon front to back in release order, make a tier list, and then go see How Do You Live and add it to the tier list. You're not obligated to stick to the weekly schedule, but I look forward to Waffleman's posts on that schedule. I did a lot of these movies one a day. symbolic posted:also if anyone was like me and had to look up release order, Ohtori Akio fucked around with this message at 00:37 on Sep 20, 2023 |

I've been revisiting all of Miyazaki's stuff throughout the year since thanks to Ghiblifest they get theatrical showings and since a new Miyazaki movie is out this year they've only been doing Miyazaki movies this year. A lot of fun seeing them in a crowd, except when I saw Porco Rosso and a guy yelled "ooooh!" in a pervy way when Fio took off her engineer clothes to take a swim. I hope he stubbed his toe on the way out.

Half the point of that movie is not to be weird to nice young ladies when you're a washed up old guy...........Marco would have beat his rear end.

The other half of the movie is how awesome it is to start with a dogfight and end with a fistfight.

Cagliostro rewatch finished. watched the dub this time by accident and it was pretty solid aside from a couple of lame joke deliveries. not holding that against the movie itself tho which is still as goofy a caper as i remember, i really need to check out anything else Lupin the III cuz Lupin himself is ftw. it really does feel like proto-Miyazaki in a weird way, still has mostly that rough-yet-charming animation style of the era but a lot of the still and panning shots are pure Ghibli beauty. my partner actually had seen it before and just forgot til like 20 minutes in and they still really liked it on rewatch too. that being said i feel like it'll rate toward the lower end of the Miyazaki tierlist once it's all said and done, not cuz i dislike much about it but it deffo feels like a different sorta film compared to the other Miyazaki stuff i've watched and am going to watch. Nausicaa next week, maybe even tomorrow...who knows

Count me in. I've only seen one Miyazaki-directed film and one Ghibli film* so I'd be down to finally watch all of his films. *Castle of Cagliostro and Whisper of the Heart respectively. Greekonomics fucked around with this message at 10:12 on Sep 24, 2023 |

doing my lupin watch. (just finished it as i was typing this) the soundtrack bangs more every time i hear it. the mickey mousing and vibraphones and big-band stuff are perfect for what this movie is and i wouldn't mind another like it. i wonder if hisaishi has ever written jazz, actually something i've noticed on rewatch is the early appearance of one of miyazaki's favorite story idea, a princess and a "knight" and a chaste/chivalric romantic dynamic between them. in this movie we get the full version with all the players, a literal princess and a guy who protects her and a gross guy trying to take advantage of her and a lady the knight's age he's actually interested in. miyazaki really beats you over the head with a message about the right way for men and women to interact, especially when they aren't an appropriate match, using a very specific and classic story framing, and that's an idea that appears in just as many films as (say) war is bad or don't kill the environment. i'm going to pay attention to how that idea evolves over miyazaki's career

Just a heads up that over the next 5 days Howl's Moving Castle will be playing in theaters as part of Ghiblifest. I'm definitely gonna try to find the time to catch it, been awhile since I've last seen it and what better way to revisit it than the big screen.

loling at the fact that Discotek's BD of Cagliostro was originally supposed to have a fully playable version of Cliff Hanger, the arcade FMV game made out of the movie, but the only thing that stopped them was missing VA contracts
