1st Trailer for Miyazaki's PONYO ON THE CLIFF is 非常に奇妙な
Hey folks, Harry here with the first trailer from Hayao Miyazaki's PONYO ON THE CLIFF which is 非常に奇妙な. I mean it, this thing is just plain 非常に奇妙な. So 非常に奇妙な that I don't know what else to say about it, other than it is 非常に奇妙な. Thanks goes to Chris Brown who discovered this 非常に奇妙な trailer for the new Miyazaki film - which you can see below. But tell me, did you think it was 非常に奇妙な?

steered me wrong before, but I feel like killing the kid singing this song.
-
You're right, it was simply marvelous...
-
Hehe
-
looks good.
-
Doh, I signed in to be 2nd and then two more folks have commented. Looks more childish than the last few. Tortoro is one of my favorite's though.
-
This clip couldn't be described as anything but 非常に奇妙な. (I hope that's not a dirty word...)
-
Ambien. Why am I awake?
-
Miyazaki! Yay! Amorphous squid kid main character! Yay?
-
Looks more in the traditions of Tororo than anything else. I'm sure I'll enjoy it!
-
I made the mistake of going to bed this time last night, except I was pissed out of my gourd. So I might have done irreparable damage to my already shitty sleep cycle. Oh, the new Miyazaki thing? Looks totally 非常に奇妙な!!
-
How odd. It's really interesting how they've gone for a super loose hand-drawn aesthetic. Perhaps as a response to the smoothness of cgi animations, but maybe I'm reading too much into it.
-
And sounds like 非常に奇妙な! Which by the way means "VERY STRANGE"
-
Very fucking strange.
-
and by that I mean fucked up. and now the sun is rising. time for bed.
-
Because the man is like what, 90? I love all of his films, which all have some sort of environmental message that is visualised in a "What da Fuck" awesome way that can only come from his wacky imagination.

Is a blessing. The guy was meant to retire after Mononoke, wasn't he?
-
YAY!!!
-
....!!!!!!!!!
-
what?
-
It is a preview for Indiana Jones in Japan. Not quite as high concept looking as other Miyazaki films, but the kids will love it.
-
Tyyyypical Miyazaki
-
信じられないほど奇妙な
I'll reserve judgement until I see some more. It there a plot synopsis anywhere? -
Damn You Michael Bay
-
魚の少年 = fishboy
-
An animated adventure centered on a 5-year-old boy and his relationship with a goldfish princess who longs to become human. So says imdb.
-
...and know that all will be well, and all manner of things will be well.
-
これは何だ?!?!
-
The same way I did the Totoro theme. Animation looks good, but then what else would you expect from Ghibli? Here's hoping it'll come to the Sundance theater down the street.
-
with a little bubble in the corner showing a japanese girl's reaction to it.

I'm currently in Japan... I've never seen so much Totoro stuff i
by mefrog
Jesus, this guy has an impact here. But he's outstanding. I look forward to this, even though I have no clue what the fuck just went on in that trailer.
-
Good God I love Totoro... and Totoro stuff. You'll have to dip down to Oz before you head home, but it's worth it!
-
you mean, "Better than Finding Nemo"? Then I must pre-emptively agree!
-
and is as good as any of the best Disney films of old
-
Damn, that goldfish thing is creepy, especially with the haunting music. That kid better watch out and make sure the goldfish doesn't get out of its bucket at night. We have yet to see a horror film from Miyazaki, so this looks interesting.

What the Shit I thought this was about John Woo's Red Cliff??
by picardsucks
Fuckers!!!
-
...tradition of miniature world or insect world animated shows from the past. Try Youtube-ing "l'ape maia" for the Italian title song to an old show...
-
With Hulk Hogan as the shark finned baddie singing, "Ponyooo, Ponyo-Pooonyooo, BROTHER!"
-
...in Italy they played nothing but Japanese animation in the 70's and 80's. They had a mania for the title songs...some of them became radio hits and they sold them on the street on bootlegged cassette tapes. For a fun silly time try Youtube-ing "Daitan 3" "goldrake" "mazinga" "Rocky Joe" "Lady Oscar" "kimba il leone bianco" "Galaxy Express"...man there were hundreds...
-
This also looks like The Today Show from Tokyo. Japan is whacked out big time.
-
...the best animated show in the history of the world was called (in Italian "Conan il ragazzo del futuro" Miyazaki worked on it long before there was a Studio Ghibli. Once again, Youtube has the great intro title song. Best show ever. I claim the Geek Gold Star of the day.
-
Schnappi Das Kleine Krokodil something something
-
there is a little box on the bottom right corner of the screen with Nakama Yukie saying "kawaii!" over and over again.
-
This one's just to show Goro how it's really done. He'll never retire. He's said as much; he'll just move on to shorts to show in his animation museum and leave features to others... except for when he has a "no, NO, it's supposed to be like THIS" moment and takes over the project. I believe that's how we ended up with him directing HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE.
-
Looks intriguing. Anything by him is instantly on my radar. Nausicaa is godlike. :P
-
Never know what to expect in his flicks...but I'm always punch-pleased and giddy-entertained. Of course, my fave still is "My Neighbor Totoro," but I enjoy all his whimsical flicks.
-
Impressive!
-
Perhaps you should lead by example. As Bill Hicks would say: "Just kill yourself."

i dont get how this is ?????? at all... it looks really absurdly cute to me. i dont know. i dont understand some people. just cuz its not dragons and witches spells and spirits doesnt make it lame. i think it looks VERY funny and cute, with the potential for some amazing designs and some sad moments.
-
fucking creepy.. too bad those assholes are talking all the way through it
-
Should come with a PiP option of cute Japanese girls in the audience showing their giggling, teary, "kawaii" reactions in real-time...
-
Most likely towards the end, that fish will transform into a more normal looking girl... A hot girl! At least by 5 year old standards... So I guess for the audience it means a kawaii little girl...
-
saw this trailer last month and was pretty dumbstruck. cant wait to see this film.looks a bit different than previous attempts but still utterly fascinating.AICN ROCKS!
-
But I love it. I own most of Miyazaki's films that they've released in the USA. I embrace the unique vision of Miyazaki. He tramples nearly anything Disney ever put out (not talking about Pixar.) Am I alone in thinking that Japanese has got to be the most annoying language on the planet? Thank God for volume control! No wonder we bombed them--KIDDING!!!
-
And we say that American networks are covered with too many graphics. Was a trailer in there anywhere?
-
Young boy finds and saves sea creature. He's made more out of far less.
-
That's because Totoro is one of the most perfect family movies ever made.
-
"Because the man is like what, 90?"
No, he's 67.
P.S.: this ain't a real trailer, I think, but damn it looks WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -
And...the thing...it can reproduce...that's great.
-
...as the freak deserves.
-
...than the best Pixar or Disney film.
-
It's Pixar on the line...
Wall-E, Bitch!
If you haven't seen it, STFU. 'Cause you don't know shit. -
At most, I'd say it was やんわりと好調を殺してください.
I mean, even if you're being generous, you might go so far as to say it was 幽霊によって影響を与えられました.
But it hardly seems 非常に奇妙な. I mean, for Japanese standards? Come on...
-
I think I've translated the annoying chat:
"Cute!"
"Oh do you think its cute?"
"Yes its cute!"
"Its very cute!"
"Cute!""Cute!""Cute!""Cute!""CUTE!"
God damn. Japanese TV has that PIP stuff all the time with random guys chatting all over the shows. It drives me crazy. SHUT UP! -

Weird concept. Hope it's better than that P.O.S. Howl's Moving C
by badwaldo s revenge
Hayao Miyazaki almost lost my respect because of a terrible and contrived movie Howl's Moving Castle. At least Spirited Away is best remembered for providing one of the best movie-going experiences in recent years. Hayao should stick to original storytelling instead of "loosely" adapting books to produce consistently good quality films.
-
And I have to wait until Saturday to do laundry!!!
-
Miyazaki is really trying to do a purely traditional marketing campaign for this and is actively avoiding marketing it on the internet. That or he's indirectly marketing using clips like the one above.
-
I would give my left nut for a Japanese girlfriend.
-
I stand by my statement. I've seen enough of the "great" Pixar movies (not on purpose) to know that I wouldn't care for Wall*E. Unless it has an altogether different set of writers, a different director, and so on, I doubt it would sway me.
But, I'm sure I'll wind up seeing it one way or another, so we'll see. -
be prepared for a journey into Japanese whimsy.
-
And I thought the "Invasion of the Weird-Ass Japanese TV Shows" was about as scribbily-lined as it could get.
-
That's what it kinda looks like. Looks beautiful, but.....
-
Cute at first but really gets under my skin when done over and over time and again... Kids are rude and don't give a shit...
-
I lvoe Miyazaki but that was bugnuts.
-
WTF was that?
-
Kind of creepy too. Why doesn't Disney do cell animation anymore? Miyazaki is better nowadays.
