KnockBack, Episode 145: Princess Mononoke
Added 2020-11-19 17:01:03 +0000 UTCWe happen to love Studio Ghibli here on KnockBack, and we know that many of you do, too. However, Hayao Miyazaki's 1997 animated picture Princess Mononoke may be the most beloved movie in his team's extensive, decades-long filmography. The setup is simple: Ancient and solidified nature is in existential crisis thanks to humanity's industrial progress, and with both 'sides' dug in, it looks like only one can emerge. Or is there another way? Let's follow the journey of the cursed Prince Ashitaka as he tries to save his life, ward off societal and natural destruction, and perhaps even unite two sides of a conflict, a move that once seemed impossible. So whistle for Yakul, friends! Our journey begins on the other side of Play.

I absolutely love this movie. Also it cemented Studio G has one best of all time. Making a bucket list, to see before dying.

2020-11-30 19:41:11 +0000 UTCI agree with you that it is a little long because when I originally watched this movie I got to the ending and had to cut it off because I was pressed for time and didn't finish till I became an adult

2020-11-20 16:00:23 +0000 UTCI just want to clarify - I only meant the word ‘exposed’ in a MOSTLY sexual context.
