List: Top 3 Studio Ghibli Films

This week on Episode 177, we decided to skip The Secret Life of Pets and instead discussed another animated film in Studio Ghibli’s 1991 film, Only Yesterday. As mentioned on the show, we are huge fans of Studio Ghibli and the brilliance they’ve brought us over the years. Their films have featured such grand mystical worlds, captivating characters, lush animation and some of the most emotional experience we’ve ever seen in animation. Studio Ghibli has not only impacted the world of animation but they’ve given us some of the best films of all-time, period. Their filmography, in our opinion, is just as rich and deep as Pixar (whom we also adore).

On that note, which Studio Ghibli movies would make your list? Here are the one’s that made ours:

  1. Ashamedly, I’ve only seen 3 Ghibli films so far. LOVED “Spirited Away” and “My Neighbour Totoro” is wonderful fun.
    I was a bit disappointed with “Tale of the Princess Kaguya” though; definitely not a bad film, just overlong.

    • That’s fair, I do agree KAGUYA is long but I found it extraordinary and so beautiful. I can see why it’s not for everyone though.
