TCM Isao Takahata, Hayao Miyazaki Interview with John Lasseter - Only Yesterday, Pom Poko

[@MrReptilianhumanoid]

Takahata still doesn't get the love he deserves in the states

[@dertiger1]

I'm glad John Lasseter has such love and appreciation for Ghibli's films.

[@AnimeIntroStyles4]

Only Yesterday is my favorite anime movie of all time.

[@kickodude]

Way to avoid even mentioning Takahata's (and by extension, Studio Ghibli's) best film "Grave of the Fireflies"

[@Rion032]

thanks for putting these videos up!

@CArownny "The film remains the only theatrical Studio Ghibli feature not yet released on home video in the United States, although it was aired on Turner Classic Movies in January of 2006, as part of the channel's month-long salute to Miyazaki and Ghibli. The film's home video release and distribution rights in North America belong to Disney. As of May 2005, it was not scheduled for release to the North American home video market." DVDs from Japan/UK/Australia do have English subs though.

I'm sad 'cause I missed this broadcast.

@sendono Well, great minds think alike. And now we know they hang out together as well. Thumbs up to both Miyazaki (and other Ghibli animators) and Lasseter (and the rest of Pixar). Both are great studios, staffed by brilliant and creative animators. I hope they keep their legacy of great, warm-hearted films alive for many years to come.

@AnimeIntroStyles4 Can you tell me where it's available? I'd love to see it.

[@EricMontreal22]

Grave of the Fireflies may have not been mentioned due to its rights being owned by a completely different distributor (here and in Japan). Disney not releasing Only Yesterday is such an embarassment
