Gake no ue no Ponyo (Ponyo) (Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea) (2009, G)
I really enjoyed the film, though I am not quite sure what to rate it. It is certainly far from being Miyazaki's best film, however it has it is moments of utter brilliance that shows exactly why I consider him the world?s greatest living filmmaker. |

The Wind (1928, Unrated)
if not for a baffling, out of place "Happy" ending forced upon the director by the studio, this film would be a masterpiece. |

so so close to being a masterpiece only MGM's unnecessary gloss keeps it from being one, in my eyes. |

Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980, PG)
The original "Empire" is a masterpiece of escapist cinema... An while Lucas need to add unnecessary farts and whistles is annoying... I didn't feel that they were too distracting at least not as much as the other two. |
