[–] Sunny@slrpnk.net 20 points 2 years ago (2 children) The Boy and The Heron A truly excellent movie made by Ghibli, fantastic studio with some really high quality films. Definitely recommend giving it a watch. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] aleph@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago* (2 children) Same here, although I confess I wasn't blown away by this one. I often find that while Ghibli films always crush it on the imagination front, the writing can be hit and miss. I understood the autobiographical origin of the plot, but there were several parts that felt underdeveloped or poorly explained. Overall, was good but definitely not up there with Mononoke or Spirited Away, imo permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Sunny@slrpnk.net 1 point 2 years ago I do agree, not their best one. Although I really like the animation in this one. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 1 point 2 years ago I prefer the movies of Makoto Shinkai to Hayao Miyazaki these days. I'll always love Spirited Away and My Neighbour Totoro, but Shinkai is so consistent. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Bonifratz@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago That was the second-to-last I watched. :) permalink fedilink source parent
