As much as I love Spirited Away and Castle in the Sky, I've been so bummed Miyazaki hasn't returned to more adult storylines.

Princess Mononoke and Nausicaa are two of my top ten films. I'd do anything to have Miyazaki make one more.

I even bought Miramax's old marketing website and kept it online [1].

I was lucky enough to teach English in Hokkaido [2], which is where Ghibli animators drew inspiration for Princess Mononoke. It's such a beautiful place, and you can feel it in the film.
