"Podcasts are also a good source of news because you get a larger variety of voices, and more radical thoughts, but recently I’ve been listening to a podcast called Ghibliotheque where they discuss the films of Studio Ghibli."

Great animation as always from studio Ghibli
Story was great! Touches on war and the consequences of it and the tidings it brings; destruction all around. Have to say the dramatic Calcifer was my favourite character in the movie!

Amazing story
Studio Ghibli creates an amazing film
Animation can be a very hit or miss genre of film. The Red Turtle is very much a hit. This film deals with multiple themes of friendship, loneliness, life and death just to name a few. The style of this film, created by Studio Ghibli, is a beautiful artistic piece that is each frame of this movie. With very little dialogue, this movie is all about show and don't tell. if you are a fan at all of artistic films, then this is the one for you.

Bonkers
Let's be honest, a Studio Ghibli film is never going to bad and is most usually going to be a little bit weird and wonderful. Well Ponyo is about as wacky and bonkers as you can get for a storyline, and you spend most of this film wondering what on earth you're watching. Which isn't a bad thing, it's just a bit surreal.

The animation side is wonderful as always and it's a heartwarming story, albeit a bit crazy. I wouldn't say it's one of my favourite Studio Ghibli films, but its still a fun family entertaining animation.

The most tragic thing I've ever watched.

Amazing story set in the latter end of WW2, focusing on a preteen boy and his little sister. There isn't many happy moments in this one. And it hits hard.
