      Hmm, I originally posted a joke about his perpetually retired cause his dead. I deleted it now after confirming in wiki his still alive. I thought the guy died from a heart attack or something? That is why his son had to takeover the company.

    Funny post but that’s not really the difference between both studios. One makes movies because they love them while the other (re)makes movies to monetize them. Miyazaki’s style and ideas are iconic but that’s aslo true of a lot of Disney’s movies. It’s just corpo greed as always.

    I think Disney is too big to fail, so they can’t really take risks with their story telling. They should probably just buy out Studio Ghibli at this point. That last part was only a joke!!!
