Laputa: Castle in the Sky

1986 Studio Ghibli film directed by Hayao Miyazaki, apparently based on something from Gulliver's Travels, which I have on my list I think.

The night after watching, and really enjoying, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, in my quest to watch all the Studio Ghibli films, I fired this one up.
Loving the 80s Ghibli flavour, it's both nostalgic and intriguingly different. Certainly seems that something's missing from such films these days - I'd even go so far as to say there aren't any 'such films' made anymore. It's whimsical, adventurous, fun, epic - I guess it just evokes a much richer suite of emotions.
I really want to make Laputa in Minecraft :P Also I'd definitely recommend these films for kids, I look forward to watching them with mine one day.

I was very tired (we both were after a long day out) but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Lots of robots and nice naturey secluded castle suits me just fine haha. I would definitely be happy having ruined Laputa as my secret base.
It was Emma's first anime experience, and she said she enjoyed it too.
