Anyone else seeing this in theaters tomorrow for the 15th anniversary?

I was sorta surprised that this show became the best selling when it's really hard to understand the story, especially for kids

It is just a fantasy adventure story for kid.

But it's pretty straightforward

What's hard to understand about it?
>>150523386
you're a retard
I saw it in theaters when the English dub first came out. I was already a fan of Ghibli movies on VHS but seeing this one on the big screen blew me away. Totally a life changing moment for me,

The kids I've taken to watch it seem to think otherwise. Maybe it's your understanding skills what are at a fault here.

I was thinking about it, but the theater around here will put the movie in the theater with the smallest screen. I don't think it'll be worth it.

More like it's surprising that this film became the best selling when it's not even among the top 5 Ghibli movies.

He's probably comparing to shit like disney movies where characters act like total retards and the plot messages explain themselves for you. Spirited away is easy to understand, but I think the subtlety in the messages and character interactions within the film is certainly above what normally airs in american movie theaters, but that's standard to Ghibli works. Also, people underestimate kids, they aren't total idiots when it comes to understanding plots and subtlety

I'm working and the nearest theater is on the other side of my state. Fuck my life.
