Studio Ghibli

STUDIO GHIBLI: INTRODUCTION

The greatest mainstream animation studio of our generation, headed by the greatest animator of our time, Hayao Miyazaki.

Has consistently produced works that all uphold the studio's foundation of creative artistry and story-telling.
Unfortunately, it is shadowed by the American powerhouses Pixar/Disney, who have mastered the art of creating family-friendly films and entertainment, but nonetheless lack an emotional/narrative appeal.
________________________________________________
FOCUS ON ART/NARRATIVE, NOT MASS-APPEAL

Studio Ghibli is dedicated purely to the arts and narrative behind each story. It is known for its sentimental appeal and beautiful traditional animation, not focusing on entertainment.

WHERE HAS THE MAGIC GONE....

Studio Ghibli can only be summed up as the place where the only real bit of magic has moved, after the downfall of the "magic" of Disney into the 2000's.

The magic of a pencil, not a computer, the beauty of a well-crafted story, and the sacredness of art above mass-appeal, this is what Studio Ghibli believes in.

Studio Ghibli is magic.
Pixar:

beautiful computer animation
family-centered
mass appeal
masterful money generator/Oscar nabber

lack of meaningful themes or remembrance of film

Disney:

owns Pixar now
famed for beautiful animation, but since long gone

Studio Ghibli:

-dedicated to art, not entertainment
-known for themes like individualism, environmentalism, feminism, friendship,etc., rather than exclusively love
-known for powerful narrative/story-telling, not entertainment

Lumina Studio Theater

A kick-ass acting group in the United States. Not the car. We do Shakespeare, Dickens and random shit made up by our director. We usually (but not always) twist the setting or characters somehow. Lumina is not to be treated casually. We take it seriously. It is not an after-school activity. And not a cult, at all...
"I have a Lumina Studio Theater rehearsal from 12:30 to 3:00 on Saturday."

"Really? That short?"

Or

"What do you do do for fun?"
"I do Lumina."
Or
"Can't you just skip a Lumina rehearsal once?"
"Hahahahahahaha."

Me: Fuck no, Bob, they suck turkey ass.

sucdiculous

suc●dic●u●lous

adjective

combining the powers of both root words, suck and ridiculous, this combination goes beyond the traditional meanings of both and creates the ultimate word of dislike and disgust. inversely, like many negative adjectives (i.e. bad, sick etc...) sucdiculous can be used as an ultimate word of like and/or affection. it does sound plain awesome as well, and it never hurts to say a cool word.
negative meaning: MAN, that opera was so sucdiculous i wanted to get murdered.

positive meaning: MAN, that castle jumper at rachel's birthday party was sucdiculous fool!! i want one of my own.
