Studio Ghibli Museum - Miyazaki - 'Spirited Away, Princess Monoke, Howl's Moving Castle', and many more... as a casual fan of Miyazaki mixed in with a larger group of hardcore fans, i have to admit that i was a bit excited to finally get to visit the Studio Ghibili Museum. A funky building that draws millions of fans annually boasts of having amazing exhibits from past and upcoming film projects. While there were some displays that showed the 'magic' of animation, studio ghibli which is known for its secrecy kept most of its sought after art work locked away. so, after 5 minutes i found myself in one of the 3 gift shops. then within 10 minutes i was torn between entering a line for overpriced ice cream or a taking a nap on a bench.
a blog about movie back to the U.S. after a seven year hiatus in Japan. this was our life for the first year back from a little island to the big state of texas.
