As you may or may not know, the creator of Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke, two of my most favourite movies, has made a new movie. It is called Howl's moving Castle and is based on a book be Diana Wynne Jones's book of the same name. Diana Wynne Jones just happened to be one of my most favourite authors. I just saw it last night.
Do you want to see it? If you have, did you like it? I personally think it was infinately better than Spirited Away, funny too.

Ooh. I wanna see that. Princess Mononoke was one of the best movies ever.

You should have a "I haven't heard of either until now" choice, which would be mine.

I've read a couple of her other books, but not that one. She's pretty good, though, and I'd like to see the movie. I watched the trailer and it looks interesting.

I wanted to see the movie. Although I've never read the book, either.

My friend saw it and said it was awesome.

Hayao Miyazaki's movies are awesome, and I desperately want to see this one. (I've seen Spirited Away, Kiki's Delivery Service, Princess Mononoke, and Nausica of the Valley of Wind.)

I loved that movie. I never read the book, but I thought the movie was great. I think I may have like it better than Spirited Away, even.

Miyazaki's great; I saw the movie with my friend Claire over the summer :mrgreen: Definitely my favorite of the Miyazaki films.

I love how Miyazaki has made people more aware of anime and such. Now only if Akira Toriyama came to my school and beat up David Jacobs for me.....

Yeah, it came out quite some time ago. Like back when I was in 8th Grade.

I'm going to rent it for DVD, though.

Oh, really?
I just saw it in Australia this week.
Man, are we behind...
Rating: Better than Spirited Away, not as good as Princess Mononoke.

Not so much behind as someone in shipping is lazy, and everything gets to you late. ;)

I saw bits and pieces of it a while ago. It was pretty awesome.
