Great news! Most directors never really retire anyway, so I can't say I'm surprised.

Every film since Mononoke is almost always meant to be his last man. He just can't "stop". |

The Wind Rises was the perfect film to end his career. It was full of references to his personal and familiar history, the dreams he had as a child etc. It seemed the ultimate lifespan work for him. This "comeback" devalues The Wins Rises from this meaning a lot.

Maybe Cher, she had a "farewell tour" that lasted for like...4 years. |

A sample of Joe Hisaishi's score AKA a glimpse into the beautiful gift we're not worthy of  |

Fuck it, I'm liking my own two latest posts in this thread because the stuff within them is that good. All of them Barbies and Oppenheimers can go suck a nut, the real best movie of 2023 is here!

Apparently, this movie didn't have a trailer or any promotional material in Japan before opening - they just said it's Hayao Miyazaki's new movie and left it at that. Can you imagine the reactions when they walk in and they receive what appears to be an avant-garde horror film?  |

Can you imagine the reactions when they walk in and they receive what appears to be an avant-garde horror film? I... don't think that's what they received. I don't know the particulars of the story but apparently the movie is very Ghibli and more like a summation of all of Miyazaki's oeuvre. But also a bit more complex and abstract than one might expect. Again, these are just things I picked up from skimming through some reviews but from what I can gather, it's not an avant-garde horror film. In other words, don't set your expectations in that direction. |
