I'm a big Miyazaki fan and I'm really excited to see his next film Ponyo. He always comes up with the greatest stories and imaginative characters.
Check the trailer :D

It looked like Pokemon without the Pokemans.

I've never watched any of his movies before, but I've heard that they're supposed to be amazing. I guess I'll have to watch this when I get the chance, along with all of his other movies.

It's Hayao's final film and then Goro Miyazaki is taking his place (that being his son). I've been waiting for Ponyo for so long, and I can't wait to see it - I'm a huge fan of Studio Ghibli films so it's a must have as soon as it is released for me.

Don't be so ignorant: it's not indie. Hayao Miyazaki is part of a film production label named Studio Ghibli which has gained cult status around the world. Originated in Japan (because it's anime and all that jazz), the company has also been given a museum in dedication due to their brilliance.

You may enjoy some of their stuff, give them a go, but keep in mind that they are bigger than what your first impressions of them are.

I believe Disney picked it up so that it can be shown in theaters.
But I have no clue.

Finnish movie theaters tend to rape Miyazaki films by dubbing them because they think they are just kids movies.
I hate this country.

Well I dunno what to think. I dont like the look of it to be honest, but this is what I thought when I first saw trailers for Spirited away. We all know I was wrong as hell and that movie was awesome. I dont really like how it looks, but I'm gonna go see it because this is how I felt when I saw Spirited Away.

It'll be awesome, just like all his other films. I mean, Miyazaki can present to us nothing but a blank piece of paper and win an Oscar for some incredible story he'll be able to weave around it.

"Hailed as one of the greatest film makers of all time" "..his next masterpiece!"

Bullshit. That hype is so fucking ridiculous, I almost thought it was a joke. This animation looks like any other generic crap that ever comes out of Japan. And seeing as how it comes out of Japan, I'm sure the story will be dumb as fuck too.

Well I could, but it wouldn't be in theaters so it takes away from some of the movie expiernce.

You've obviously never seen any of his films. Before you rant on about whatever your rambling about watch one of his films, and if you don't like it then you may say whatever you want about it.

The quality of animation seems to be a few notches down off of Howl's and Spirited Away

From what I've heard, he's allowed Disney to modify the plot and script significantly.

You don't need the most amazing animation ever to make a good animated movie, and it still looks fantastic.

I saw it a few months ago. In Japanese like it was meant to be seen. Freaking awesome. Dubbing, at least for me, ruins the anime experience, but i think i will see it in theaters to support him.

This guy's the one how did Kiki's Delivery Service, Castle in the Sky, and Princess Momonoke rite? He's very good.

His style is one of the few Japanimation style I find enjoyable, along with Gainax.

This looks to be a rather fantastic movie, enjoyed watched watching Spirited Away a lot, this should be very good, Might go watch it since it comes out the day before Clock day, woo hoo, hopefully that will be a good weekend as well. Furthermore it has a nice trailer song and looks to have a heart catching storyline to it. :3

The plot is comparably similar to Little Mermaid?

It doesn't seem very original, and the story seems to be flawed.

For most people it could be a really good movie, but me personally, it just seems to unoriginal and it would be filled 50% with useless filler.
