Japanese anime director Hayao Miyazaki to release new film next summer

Another boring film to add to the franchise?

Another boring film? Some of his work is better than others, but boring? You don’t even have to appreciate anime as a genre to enjoy his films. He’s a master of his craft and storytelling.

Ghibli is no longer the guarantee of good movies that were beautiful and entertaining as before, for me Ponyo was the one where things began going down, other animation studios are now better in my opinion.

I'm glad he's doing more work, but I always chuckle when celebrities here make a huge song and dance about retiring; it's only a matter of months to a few years before they go on a new concert tour, or make a new album or movie.
