ladyshiro · December 30th, 2007, 02:32 PM

Test your knowledge of Ghibli movies?

Okay
What are some common things in alot of Hayo's movies?
(this on requires some thinking)

Blue Thunder · January 1st, 2008, 01:58 AM

hmmmm.... Young female protaganist? (No offense, Potsu and Ashitaka

) Messages about nature and it's relationship to humanity?

ladyshiro · January 2nd, 2008, 06:31 AM

your correct
I'll give you the other part of the answer
I would have took anyone of these as well
A flying scene is always in, A character that is ugly as sin is always in, In most there is really no bad guy.

yasly · January 2nd, 2008, 07:40 AM

In kiki's delivery service there isn't anyone ugly. But I agree that there is always something about flying and the bad guys turn out to be okay in the end so that's also correct.

ladyshiro · January 2nd, 2008, 07:50 AM

I said in most.
In kiki's there was that old women's helper she was kind of ugly.

yasly · January 2nd, 2008, 07:51 AM

Haha, yeah that's right. She's no model indeed.

Blue Thunder · January 3rd, 2008, 09:12 PM

I was considering about putting something along the lines of the 'no bad guy thing' too. Howl's moving castle gave me pause though. But looking back on it, I think you're right. Well, I guess that makes it my turn.... hmmmm....

Where does the name Ghibli come from, what does it mean?

ladyshiro · January 4th, 2008, 12:54 PM

its italian
I think it meaning is saharan scouting planes

Blue Thunder · January 5th, 2008, 08:41 PM

You are indeed wise in the ways of Ghibli. There was an italian scouting plane by that name. The name also means hot wind from the sahara, from which that plane get's it's name, and Studio Ghibli was like a fresh breeze to the anime industry when it started.

Your turn.

seba_boi · January 5th, 2008, 09:15 PM

Grandmother-type characters are present on all his existing films (with the sole exception of Castle Of Cagliostro, but that's outside the Ghibli realm)...

Nausicaa - Obaba
Laputa - Dola
Totoro - Granny
Kiki's - The old lady in the blue-roofed house
Porco - The three old ladies in Milan
Mononoke - Wise Woman
Spirited - Yubaba
Howl's - Sophie

ladyshiro · January 6th, 2008, 07:47 PM

Okay in Howl's moving castle what does the scarecrow turn out to be?

**Shiroiyuki** · January 6th, 2008, 08:01 PM

The long lost prince. (That also might be Sophie's true love...but....unfortunately, he's a bit late...)

ladyshiro · January 7th, 2008, 07:45 AM

Your correct
You go

**Shiroiyuki** · January 7th, 2008, 09:11 AM

What were some of the 'little touches' Miyazaki had his character Sen do during the film Spirited Away to make her appear more human and realistic?

ladyshiro · January 7th, 2008, 10:35 AM
