 "Akira was surpassed by this?!!"Let me get one thing straight, Princess Mononoke is NOT better than Akira!! After hearing all the praise this anime got, I finally saw it during spring break. I was angrily bored out of my mind. There were many problems to this anime. First off, Miyazaki's character designs don't belong in anime PG-13 or beyond. There's too much anti-human pro-nature garbage in this. So civilization is evil just because it kills animals and destroys trees for survival? I think not, how can animals be mad at us for killing them when they kill each other everyday by the thousands? We kill them for survival, they kill each other for survival, so what makes nature better than us?!! Nothing, if humans are evil for their actions, animals are no better no ifs ands or buts!! There was also too much superstition with all of the pig gods, wolf gods, and forest spirits. Wake up and smell the Irish whisky laiden coffee!! This is a science based society, not a superstition based one!! To top it off, Princess Mononoke herself. What's up her ass hating humans when she's human herself? I wish I was in the movie so I could murder that wolf harlot and teach others like her a lesson; don't mess with mankind!! If you want good anime, watch Akira (Australian DVD from ezdvd.com.au) or Ninja Scroll. Akira had a deep science based plot, lots of violence, and the best animation. Ninja Scroll has a great plot, lots of violence, and kick ass fighting. Don't watch Princess Mononoke, you're better off not being exposed to this New Age crap!! I thank dalkiel 999 and others for speaking out against this anime. Down with crappy anime!! "Akira was surpassed by this?!!"After hearing how great this anime was, I saw it during spring break. I was angrily bored by this. I couldn't stand it for many reasons, one being the violence wasn't right, the severed limbs didn't gush out blood like what you would see in Akira or Ninja Scroll. The other being the plot; animals are waging war against humans because they're killing them and destroying their homes. Why is that bad, animals kill each other for the same reason we kill them, survival. If were evil for those actions, animals are no better. The characters didn't look right, Miyazaki's character design don't fit in an anime PG-13 or beyond. Lets not forget Princess Mononoke herself, I wished I was in that movie so I could obliterate that wolf-worshiping slut with my Soviet-manufatured Avtomat Kalashnikova 47!! Whats up her ass hating humans when she's human herself?!! Also, why was this movie full of wolf gods, pig gods, and forest spirits, what the hell is up with this superstitious crap?!! Enough with that garbage!! Wake up and smell the Irish whisky laiden coffee!! We live in a science based society, not a superstition based one!! I wished the people of Irontown killed that wolf worshiping (...) Don't tell me that I'm uncultured, I know that Princess Mononoke doesn't look Japanese at all, she looks like an Indian. Why would an Indian be in Japan? Anyway, this anime was garbage and if you want to watch good anime, watch Akira (Australian DVD from ezdvd.com.au) and Ninja Scroll. Akira actually had a deep plot, tons of violence, and a scientific view of things. Ninja Scroll had a great plot, lots of violence, and kick ass fighting. I support dalkiel 999 for speaking out against this crappy anime. Don't watch it, you'll thank me some day. "Captain planet, he's our hero, gonna take pollution down..."Please! Stop flinging me eco-babble disguised as entertainment for once!! This is perhaps the definition of an overrated disc and in my opininon is very offensive. Parents be warned; while the rating of the movie is pg-13, it clearly deserves an R (unless you think decapitations and bloody regurgitations are peachy for junior). And seriously, who do these asians think they are feeding me and my children their filthy paganism? Pig gods? Umm... no. Pigs are representative of satan, but thanks for trying, you devil-worshippers. Luckily I was able to stop the "movie" before my children suffered too much, but I had to take them to church afterwards, just in case. Don't be fooled; this yet another sad conspirator in today's "entertainment" biz, less intent on positive, constructive morals than on cheap (yet profitable)corruption of our nation.  "Another great anime film from the mastermind, Miyazaki"I finally got to watch "Princess Mononoke" on DVD. I was blown away!!! What can you say about Miyazaki that hasn't already been said? Beautiful, breathtaking, fantastic, wonderous... etc!!! I hope there are many more such films coming from the pen of this visionary of film. It is a must see for all fans of Japanime and especially of Miyazaki. "Miyazaki Did A Great Job Again"This is one of my top 10 best movie. The story and action was great it Miyazaki best. I think that everyone should see this movie |
