But i think sometimes recap movies are good i mean when they make lots of money on them then there is chance for another seasson.
At least thats what i think.
You make another season if, y'know, the actual series makes money. I'm not aware of a second season of anime being produced after the prior season slumped but the recap movie succeeded (has there ever been a property that's even produced a recap after a failed season, anyway?).

Hosoda seems neglectful of Kon -- and by extension, both he and Kon have become associated with Madhouse -- but his points are valid. Anime movies are largely extensions of property... and in a similar way, so are many anime adaptions, where you already have an established base (like, say, with light novels or visual novels).

hasn't Kon Satoshi been successful at all? You'd hope so.

And there is also Makoto Shinkai!

The problem is that these two are working at their own pace...and Ghibli is working on a steady pace with at least one movie coming out every two years or so (not all of them are directed by Miyazaki himself though).
And, success-wise, both Satoshi Kon and Makoto Shinkai are ten times less successful than Miyazaki (even if both are actually much better directors imo).


I agree with that. MAkoto Shinkai and Satoshi Kon deserve ten thousand times more appreciation than they actually.

I think they're all on par with Miyazaki though.

The reason why people make lots of stupid TV-series based anime movies is because TV series are already super popular which promises a huge profit form the movie.

I have yet to see a GOOD movie based on the TV series. Naruto, Bleach, and other series-beased movies are TOTAL crap with an extremely weak plot, ridiculous lines and a more ridiculous way of presenting the whole thing. They totally forget that the movie has to convey an idea, has to excel in quality and leave a good trace in the people's memories.

Those who watch stuff like TV-derived anime movies have a poor taste, IMO. Though it's not "IMO", it's obvious...

To all the people who say Makoto Shinkai and Satoshi Kon are on par with or even better than miyazaki, I say bah! I like both of them, especially Satoshi, but Miyazaki is really head and shoulders above them. Remember, Miyazaki created most of his movies without the help of a single computer. There's a reason he's known as god of animation!
