I watched Finding Nemo the other day - I work in an aquarium so I found it rather hilarious to find a groovy film all about fishies! The graphics were very good!

All you guys talk about on this site is bloody, sweaty testosterone filled flicks and drama's so I have decided to declare Disnep films and programmes wicked!

Come on you people... Everyone watched them as a child .. and some just don't stop watching them *coughs*

Winnie the Poo..Alladin..THE LITTLE MERMAID..who doesnt like pinnochio??


So You like any disnep stuff? Or you think Tigger is a raving homosexual?

Lovely films. Simply lovely.
Even my sisters, who don't tend to enjoy anime (as they believe all the cliches about it) enjoy the Ghibli films, and they tagged along when I went to see Spirited Away in London.

But, when they arrive here on dvd will the ignorant masses buy them, or will they still be lapping up Jungle Book 2 and all the other new Disney dross?

If you like animated movies, particularly Disney and Pixar ones, you could do much worse than to check out Studio Ghibli's work. They dump over Disney from a great height.

Spirited Away is currently showing in a few cinemas nationwide and is the mutt's nuts. Best film I've seen at the cinema this year, even though I already own the US dvd. Other delights include Kiki's Delivery Service and Castle in the Sky (coming to dvd here soon hopefully), My Neighbour Totoro, Porco Rosso (it's about an ace plane pilot who also happens to be a pig), Princess Mononoke which is available here on dvd, and many more.

To describe them in simple terms would be that they create beautiful animated features that appeal to both adults and children alike, something a great animated film should do. They're anime films with a soft centre, with none of the stereotypical anime robots/demon rape/etc that people usually associate with those films.

Pixar boss John Lassiter is inspired by Ghibli boss Hayao Miyazaki, so that's why Pixar aspires to greatness.

A good Ghibli fansite is nausicaa.net. Check them out.

Pixar rule. They make consistently entertaining, thoughtful and carefully made films that you can tell John Lassiter et al love.
Disney?
Pump out this month's politically correct cartoon and try to get the McDonald's tie-ins.
Last film Disney made I enjoyed was Bedknobs & Broomsticks

Agreed, But much as I hate Disney, Pixar Studios are fantastic animators and filmmakers. Monsters Inc made me laugh and feel like a kid again through the wonder of it.

I remember their early shots, Luxor Junior and The Snowman (not the Raymond Biggs before anyone asks, this one concerned a toy snowman in a glass globe, trying to get out to join his mates having a beach party. Genuis), and the studio goes from strength to strength. Kids movies, but with knowing "nudge nudge, wink wink" adult jokes.
