Nothing eases a broken heart like cheese

Hey hey hey hey just wanted to let you know

OH MY DEAR LORD SĪDUS THE FALLEN STAR? I HOPE YOU KNOW THAT IS THE BEST NAME EVER AND I ABSOLUTELY ADORE HIS DESIGN AS WELL

Also Sīdus's outfit kinda reminds me of those little star children in Howl's moving castle (look it up if you don't know what I mean)

ok byeeee

thank you ! !

and hehe Sīdus does have some ghibli inspired themes 2 him, backstory wise

the worst/weirdest/funniest thing about today was the fact that like. all the nurses and receptionists and my family doctor were like "oh by the way happy birthday?" and i

there's not really a reaction other than thanking them and having a bit of a giggle

there's really nothing for it than to laugh at the whole situation at that point yknow?

like holy fuck bud I'm having one of the birthdays of all time

watching Porco Rosso and the main character, who is a literal pig, like the animal, saying "laws don't apply to pigs" is very funny (depressing) in the context of our world because it's true, and i'm choosing to believe Miyazaki meant it as a statement against pigs.

Still can't get over how Reanimator feels like a movie specificaly made for me. Like, everything i like in any story crammed into one thing that lowkey changed my brain chemistry. Simple but well realised and confident story? ✓ Interesting characters with fantastic dynamic? ✓ Very memorable perfomences from the cast? ✓ 80s horror practical effects? ✓ Catchy af soundtrack? ✓ Fun direction? ✓ Gay stuff? ✓✓✓✓✓✓✓ Crazy how these mfs knew what i like 20 years before i was even born, wild.

do you have a favorite movie?

sorry this ask is like weeks old I don't really have an answer to this because I'm an indecisive bitch but for a while there I just kept rewatching monsters university. jdk why. it was really emotional for me genuinely

[dorian1903]

I've never finished this wip, and it's already super old. I'm debating whether I should redraw this to see what I would do better now.

triennial ranking of hayao miyazaki movies 2023

[2017] [2020]

12. nausicaa of the valley of the wind warrior-scientist nausicaa—shepherd-princess whose staff is kindness—part the seas of violence through its inverse—and may those possessed of crushing see in the eyes of those underfoot themselves and their good and stop—but what is the inverse—and is nausicaa’s truly the face of goodness—these questions arise almost in spite of themselves—for good must question good, no matter where it is led

11. castle in the sky the world of nausicaa is leavened with a bit of fun—a swift of joy—a loose of light—the first ghibli—explodes onto the scene to vie for child hearts child eyes child minds—in sky the castle a cake crumbling between child fingers

10. kiki’s delivery service girls and mothers and women—black cats black birds black clothes—dark clouds strong winds—bright sun breaking over the town by a swirling sea

9. the boy and the heron in the echoes of many miyazakis past—miyazaki doing miyazaki shadow puppetry—working for the sake of working—playing for the sake of playing—freeform, freefall—simultaneously celebration and repudiation—a man holds hands with his mother and his grandson once again

8. howl’s moving castle a heart in the hand, a cave of the mind—a nursery rhyme for the wishful kind

7. porco rosso death on your mind but not in your hand—a fairy tale for the romantic man

6. ponyo water—water water water—answers spirited away’s “my boyfriend is the river” with “ok well my wife is the ocean”

5. lupin iii: the castle of cagliostro here is the arrival of a gentle thief who’s come to steal theft itself—in the eye of the vacuum of accumulation, this surgeon flips a switch—or does he crank a lever?—by which wealth becomes poverty and poverty wealth—see in the release of riches, in the reversal of ruin, the liberation of luxury from the clutch of clout

4. my neighbor totoro not in animation, nor in life—and least of all in the orchestration of wonder—can one ever take movement for granted

3. the wind rises as if beauty were reason enough—the fascist’s dream, perhaps—along which seam does it collapse upon itself

2. princess mononoke i suppose it’s true what they say—that things can only be done in life not death—no matter how much death rains and pours

1. spirited away a girl slips and falls many times in this immaculate little fantasy adventure

[princeisolde]

As an aviator, I don’t think I’ll ever recover from this scene.
