...when i am under stress...i create...and it's raining today...i like that. trying something new again...hope you enjoy =]

many of you might be familiar with laputa - castle in the sky. very classic and old anime...that i grew up watching. i love these older anime much more than the new ones...they had so much substance. like nausicaa - valley of the wind...totoro...fireflie's grave...they bring back so much memories of my childhood...

all airbrushed in ps7 with mouse.

When I heard Laputa, I thought you meant the place from Gulliver's Travels. It is a place where everyone lives for ever, but they are all blind and sick.

well, the whole island of laputa was actually taken from a classic literature called "gulliver's tales"

because of the author's opinion of the Spanish, he probably intentionally named the floating island that.
in Japanese, it meant nothing, so the name stuck with the movie.

Of course, for the American release, the title "Laputa" had to be trimmed from the title because of its very meaning, although in the dub they DO pronounce it as "Lah-pyu-tah", which is a somewhat odd compromise, but it works nonetheless. (And unlike some, I actually think Disney did a fine job with it; their dub is more boisterous than the original, yes, but at least the actual story, characters, and spirit are unchanged--and I liked the performances by the cast, yes, even the mature-sounding leads, as well as Joe Hisaishi's new score. Of course, I also like the Japanese version, but I have no problem watching this movie, or any other Miyazaki movie for that matter, dubbed.)

I watch these movies all the time.
Except for Grave of the Fireflies. That made me cry.

Amazing picture. I love all the clouds in the background.
