The Misery That Is Howl's
From my comment on the main page
[[There are two sides here:
The group that says Wallace and Grommit was indeed better and that Howl's wasn't Miyazaki's best work
OR
The group that's screaming "OMG11!!1 HOW DAR TEHY NOT PIC HOWL'S!11!!1"
So let's create a new side...sorta:
I got to see Wallace and Grommit, even though claymation creeps me out. Indeed, it was a good and funny movie, but the jokes were recycled and have been way overused.
Though I do want that opening theme. X3
Howl's Moving Castle may not be Miyazaki's best, but was indeed a kick-ass movie - Miyazaki's best reigns supreme god over all animated movies. Ever.
I'm going on the side that Wallace and Grommit definetly had more hype, commerical endorsement, and a wider theater release than Howl's Moving Castle.
It can't be helped. When you have something like Wallace and Grommit come along, it's kinda like competing with Lord of the Rings or something.]]
It is a shame that Howl's Moving Castle didn't win. Had it done so, it would've been another great step for anime in Western culture.

My high school hosted a solo and ensemble competition yesterday...there were like nine other high shools there or so. Me and my friends Meghan, Carmella, and Analise combined our duet groups into an ensemble. Quite possibly the most mis-matched ensemble ever: Two seniors and two freshman - two oboes, one alot sax, and one flute.
We performed "Andante From Symphony Number 94, the Surprise Symphony".
Our score?
Rank I.
Two years strong. ^_^
