Miyazaki's Howl's Moving Castle Open in Japan

blamanj writes ""Howl's Moving Castle" (Howl no Ugoku Shiro), is the latest animated epic from Miyazaki's Studio Ghibli. In a departure from his usual sources, this time Miyazaki has adapted a story by British author Diana Wynne Jones. The reviews look good." CT: Apparently Howl's opened a few weeks ago.

That's all well and good but

Is this Sophie going to be the same girl that appears in his other movies? (Nausicaa, Spirited Away, Kiki's Delivery Service, etc.)

Pardon me while I fake bowing to your pretentiousness.

Re:Miyazaki's films always have a moral

[Scrameustache]

What was the moral in Totoro?

I believe it was "two little girls and a grown man naked in the same tub is not creepy"...

Or, if you want to be serious, for a change ;-)
The moral was that the japanese country side is a wonderfull place and that there is still room for spirituality and a child's innocence in this world.

Also: Work hard. They sure had to, to clean up that old house. Didn't they?

Finally!

It's good to see Ginsberg's work getting some recognition, although I'm not sure where the moving castle comes in, and the Japanese schoolgirls will prove problematic.
