… but just wasn’t able to make it. The drive home was worse than usual and by the time I got home and ate dinner I didn’t have the motivation to haul my ass back out to the car and drive the 10 minutes to Hell. So, no pictures of the party in Hell. I’ll see if I can’t make it up there around Halloween.
Instead, we stayed home and watched Hayao Miyazaki’s most recent masterpiece Howl’s Moving Castle
I loved Howl’s … I assume you’ve already seen Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke? My Neighbor Totoro was pretty good to but I thought it didn’t have enough conflict.
If you haven’t already you should really check out Steamboy, Katsuhiro Otomo’s [Akira] second major anime. The animation is amazing and the story is awesome… Who wouldn’t like a story set in mid 1800’s England in the Steampunk genre.
Howl’s Moving Castle is a great film, but my favorite Miyazaki film is still Porco Rosso.
