Title: Older works of Miyazaki or newer ones?
Post by: Mina on March 22 2006, 02:41 pm

Examples of older works of Miyazaki: Naucicaa of the Valley of the Wind, Castle in the Sky, Porco Rosso

Examples of newer works of Miyazaki: Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle

For me? I prefer the older works... not that I don't love the newer ones, I love them to death... but I feel more... "Miyazaki-ness" from the older ones than the newer ones... maybe it's because I've seen the older ones more than the newer ones  :sweatdrop:

I prefer both them. But my favorite Myazaki movie is Castle in the Sky, and i have a ''special feeling'' for Totoro, because i saw it when i was a child( nostalgic u.u''). So my vote go to the older ones. ^^

Same for me. I like all of his movies, but Castle in the Sky will always be my favorite, so I voted for the older ones.

I like both the same. For me it´s like they are is like all of his movies are timeless.

I prefer the newer films.  His older films were too simplistic and dragging to me.  Like, the villians and good guys in Laputa are too "black and white" for my taste.  I like how he has the villians be neither good nor evil in his newer films, but gives them all personal reasons behind their actions.  It makes the characters more interesting and the plot more complex.  I also feel his newer films have better pacing than the older movies.  Kiki's Delivery Service was a really cute movie but I thought it was too long of a film for a slice-of-life anime without any plot.  I love all of his movies a lot, but I still had to vote for the newer films.

I voted for the older one.  I have a special memory with Mimi wo Sumaseba.  Its my first exposure to miyazaki's movie.

Hm.. I really like both to be honest with you. I'm not sure if I could vote for either. I love Nausicaa, Kiki's Delivery Service, Castle in the Sky, and Totoro. But I also love Spirited Away. So I guess I would vote for the older movies because I've seen more of them. Haha. But I really do love all the movies.
