Anything by Miyazaki is worth seeing IMO, and I did See HMC, but I didn't like it as well as his last couple of films: Princess Mononoke or Spirited Away. Nonetheless, it is sumptous to look at and full of wonder.

I loved Princess Mononoke! I enjoyed that more than my son did!

I was looking for a movie to rent and not having much luck. When I saw Howl's Moving Castle I remembered your post and rented it. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you!

Hayao Miyazaki's animations have something in common with the Japanese titles. Do you know what it is?

Japanese title(English title)

Howl no ugoku shiro (Howl's moving Castle)
Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi (Spiris Away)
Mono no ke hime(Princess Mononoke)
Tenku no shiro Rapyuta(Castle in the Sky)
Tonari no Totoro(My Neighbor Totoro)
Majo no takkyubin(Kiki's Delivery Service)
Kaze no tani no Nausicaa(Nausicca of the Valley of the Winds)
Kurenai no buta(Porco rosso)
Lupin sansei;Kariostoro no shiro(Lupin the Third: The Castle of Cagliostro)

It's a great film. It's a shame it only got limited release here in the States.
