Cheers for that @SuperBacon, sounds interesting. I’m assuming it’ll be available for a little while afterwards if you can’t watch live

Yeah I believe so, as it mentions YouTube live chat and the one I saw recently through Eventbrite on Maradona was pretty much available straight away on there.

My 11yo said can she ask why How Do You Live is taking so long to make? ?

Anyone ever seen this series?

I'm glad he's got a new gig after his chat show finished.

Earwig And The Witch has just been added to Netflix. 

Not top tier Ghibli but the kids and I enjoyed it enough.

I couldn't get into that one, maybe because I'm so used to the hand drawn anime style but it just didn't feel like a Ghibli film to me

Has been re-added after it originally got put on and taken off after one day (a mistake I assume)

It's weird that it's being reported as "he's coming out of retirement again!", when he's been working on that film since 2017, but I guess it's just him starting to do the media rounds and that being the easiest way to sell it.

Watched Whisper of the Heart yesterday, one of the few Ghiblis I hadn't seen. Absolutely loved it. Ridiculous that they have made films as beautiful as this and it's still not quite top tier for their studio.

Got the email about that this morning. We’re in London during its opening week, but I don’t know if I’m going to be able to convince the wife to see it as we’re already booked doing a bunch of things. Hopefully it tours at some point.

Something that seemed to fly under the radar when it was announced, Hulu are going to be streaming the Spirited Away stage adaptation on July 3rd and 4th, the final two dates of the show’s Japan tour from Nagoya. I would expect it to appear in the usual internet places a day or so later

Yeah I got an email about that and it’s a no from me, Clive. It sounds horrible. 

[SuperBacon]

There is no way my two won't want to go and see that ffs. Could be glorious or dreadful. 

Watched Porco Rosso last night. Loved it. Porco is one of the coolest characters in the Ghibli world, so massive thumbs up.

Also watched The Wind Rises a few weeks back which I thought was really beautiful, and whilst not as "magical" as other well known Ghibli films, was just as heartfelt.

Got my tickets for this today which should keep me going for the rest of the year.

Do you need to be a member to get them before the 19th?

No, this was a Ticketmaster mailing list presale.

Cheers for this, managed to pick up some for eldests birthday in November.

Gonna subject them to a brutalism tour whilst I'm near the Barbican as pay back.

[SuperBacon]

Edit: sold them.
