Miyazaki's Spirited Away

"In the middle of her family's move to the suburbs, a sullen 10-year-old girl wanders into a world ruled by gods, witches, and monsters, where humans are changed into animals,  and a bathhouse for these creatures is where the heart is................."


Like, seriously i'am really not one of these people passed the age of 20 that get's excited about animation....like students at uni.
Actually....HANG ON!....Lets start again.......
I am not a fan of recent animation.........that big statement before was such a load of crap, myself and Paul only yesterday did the whole soundtrack of 'Beauty and the Beast" and 'Aladin' from his itunes, my boy knows word for word, routein for rouiten . Not to mention the whole of the 'Grease' and 'Chicago' get up.
But yeaa back to animation, i love the old school stuff, growing up as an only child i had alot of time for disney, alot of emotional time mind you.
I remember watching 'The Lion King' and it taking a few times before i could get to the end without crying down the house, forcing my mother to turn if off and to switch to something more light hearted like 'Rosie and Jim' yeaaa them two fuckers on the boat......ha! 
Yeaaaa man disney is deeper than you probably know....like yerrr but this blog has been a tad emo already without me goin into that one....another time yeaaa?
So yea really now back to animation, unless its from the past i dont really care for it, soooo whilst chilling with my boy Inka he left me with the option of either playing a stupid play station, watching porn or 'Spirited Away', i decided to be open minded and go against my grain and watch a recent animation( because unless its Tekken 3, again i have no interest, and its not about porn when Inka about he gets excited......LOL)

So im getting into this lil girl........


And honestly the trailer is NOTHING, to how deep and beautiful this tale is.

Was the most uplifting, metaphoric piece of film ive seen in a LONG time!



Again id encourage you to watch for yourself, make up your own mind.

....but i cant imagine anyone not appreciating this one, unless your made of stone, the underlining meaning in it all, amoungst the many others, is that LOVE CONQURES ALL!

it really does people!

I feel like I'm about to be spirited away and it's all your fault (if you catch my drift)
