Nausicaa that high? Remind me what other Miyazaki have placed, I'm sure there've been some superior ones.

97: Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro71: Laputa: Castle in the Sky67: Princess Mononoke65: Porco Rosso39: Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind
seems pretty standard, with Spirited Away & Totoro (& maybe Kiki) still to place?
― ばかザッピ (zappi), Saturday, 5 January 2013 19:57 (eleven years ago) link
I like all those other films better than Nausicaa.

Love Ghost in the Shell, though first time I watched it I hated it. Gets better with each rewatch. As far as "conventional" anime canon (i.e. action/SF), probably my favorite.

Creature Comforts YES. Ratatouille NO. Ok maybe watching it in the back of a car sandwiched between two toddlers wasn't the best environment but the 'rat driving chef by pulling his hair' schtick didn't really work for me, 'restaurant owner sacrificing reputation for ready meal millions' plot was lame, 'main character turns out by quirk of fate to be heir to restaurant' made me rmde. Didn't even see the end of the film, didn't care. Ghost in the Shell I saw not so long ago but can't remember what I thought of it, which probably means I didn't think too much of it.

Creature Comforts is the best thing Nick Park ever did imo.

Is that not a tie for #33?
This reads a bit like a superposition of different polls (Classic Disney / Modern Disney / Pixar / "proper" films that are animated / Worker & Parasite), but even within that WTF is Ratatouille doing within 5 points of Finding Nemo?
― Andrew Farrell, Monday, 7 January 2013 09:46 (eleven years ago) link
Worker & Parasite
kudos.
Nausicaa is less cloyingly childish than Laputa but it's hard to care too much about the Ohmu. Little fox-squirrel is adorable though.
― ledge, Monday, 7 January 2013 09:47 (eleven years ago) link
ledge = heartless restaurant reviewer (IE secret hero of the film) is served dish of modern nouvelle cuisine ratatouille which causes him to remember his time as a child in the countryside and this Proustian rush saves everything except there's some more bullshit then the end.

Ah, good to see some Svankmajer. Not a big fan of Kiki, but mainly because it is so much *for children* in comparison to other Miyazaki works - this doesn't mean it's a bad film, just not for me. Perfect Blue I voted for and loved when I saw it but it could benefit from a re-watch to bump my memory. Sad about Satoshi Kon, Paprika was also on my ballot.
― emil.y, Tuesday, 8 January 2013 17:13 (eleven years ago) link
yeah looks like paprika is going to place pretty highly? deservedly so imo
― 乒乓, Tuesday, 8 January 2013 17:14 (eleven years ago) link
I'm not saying it's no good, I'm saying it's not within 5 points of Finding Nemo.
― Andrew Farrell, Tuesday, 8 January 2013 17:43 (eleven years ago) link
people who liked Kon films should really check out his TV series Paranoia Agent, amazing stuff. i guess there are not going to be any Makoto Shinkai or Mamoru Hosoda films in the top 100, i would have voted for some if i had noticed this poll in time :(
― ばかザッピ (zappi), Tuesday, 8 January 2013 17:56 (eleven years ago) link
So happy to see Perfect Blue here, and at a good position too. I voted it pretty high in my horror poll, and it got absolutely nowhere. It's probably my favourite Kon work, perhaps simply because the (psychological thriller) genre is most up my alley. Kon had so much more to do - his death still stings like crazy.
Secret of NIMH is an old fave, and Kiki's Delivery Service was the first Ghibli film I watched with my niece (needless to say, she insisted on seeing more over the next few weeks).

'Alice is a fantastic, in the literal sense, piece of work and deservedly placed high. The narration though nearly derails the work. I understand there's some fan-edits which excises a lot of the 'said thhe Mad Hatter', although I'd love to be some purist backing the director's vision I can't help but think that Svankmajer got that wrong.

― pun lovin criminal (polyphonic), Tuesday, 8 January 2013 18:47 (eleven years ago) link
Kiki's Delivery Service is my favorite Ghibli and one of my favorite films period. I really think it's just about perfect. Even the way the hairs on the brooms stick out is dead-on.
Haven't seen Nemo or Ratatouille, have heard good things about both, somewhat more interested in the latter as Nemo's stills seem to kinda all look the same - underwater, bright-colored fish. Yeah, dunno. Haven't seen NIMH since I was a kid, read the book once as an adult though and was really impressed with how much cool stuff was going on in there.
― Doctor Casino, Tuesday, 8 January 2013 22:22 (eleven years ago) link
have never really understood the respect for 'nimh' -- it obv stands out in bluth's otherwise awful career but it's pretty weak compared to the book imo. we watched it in fifth grade right after reading the novel and the contrast was pretty strong even for kids.

"I have lived in this tree, in this same hollow," the owl said, "for more years than anyone can remember. But now, when the wind blows hard in winter and rocks the forest, I sit here in the dark, and from deep down in the bole, down near the roots, I hear a new sound. It is the sound of strands of wood creaking in the cold and snapping one by one. The limbs are falling; the tree is old, and it is dying. Yet I cannot bring myself, after so many years, to leave, to find a new home and move into it, perhaps to fight for it. I, too, have grown old. One of these days, one of these years, the tree will fall, and when it does, if I am still alive, I will fall with it."
