Posted by Heidi80 on 11.08.2011, 06:14 AM: Does Arriety mean that Miyazaki and Takahata are retiring? I saw Arrietty last weekend, and believe me, it was awsome. It was probably the best Ghibli movie since Spirited away, in my opinion. I was just thinking if the fact that Ghibli has made a great movie where the director in neither Miya-san or Takahata-san indicates that they might be retiring soon. I mean, it wasn't possible for them to retire earlier, because they had no successors, but now that both Arrietty and Goro Miyazakis From up on Poppy hill have gotten good reviews, Ghibli has younger directors that can handle the studio. I really don't want this to happen, but let's face it, Miya-san is 70 years old and Paku-san 76. Do you think Arriety's success means that the founders of Ghibli will retire soon? |

Posted by Wikidkid101 on 11.09.2011, 09:57 AM: It is inevitable that they will soon retire whether in 2 years or 10 years, but i do think that the films they are said to be making could be there last, you know that famous saying 'Going out with a bang'.

Posted by captain george on 12.01.2011, 08:37 PM: Change is good, but no Miyazaki or Takahata could never be a good thing Whenever i think about this i always think of how different things could have been if Yoshifumi Kondo had lived, we mightent have to be worrying about what happens after the two genius' are gone. At the same time, could you actually see them completely removing themselves from a thing that they built from scratch? They surely both have an emotional tie with Studio Ghibli that would make it impossible to just fully stop contributing to it. So even if the next film that each of them have planned is their 'last sortie' in a directorial sense, i still see them having an input into Ghibli until the day that its just not possible for them to do it anymore.

Posted by Yisbay on 02.12.2012, 10:13 AM: I hope he retires, working at his age isn't healthy. The cartilidge in his hand must be in a pretty bad state at this point. |
Posted by jina445 on 02.13.2012, 09:42 AM: for me Miyazaki doing another movie, makes me hope for a better future.

Posted by Mokiepoet on 02.23.2012, 01:34 PM: Goro I thought Hayao Miyazaki's son was going to take the reins when he retired? Or was that a rumor?
