This is one of those fortunate accidents that lead to a beautiful discovery… I was looking for sightings of Masi Oka and found him at the screening of the animated film “PONYO”.
PONYO is the story of a girl-goldfish who wanted to become human. Sounds like Disney’s “ARIAL”? Actually it doesn’t. I watched the trailer below and was impressed by the story and animation. It’s very cartoonish, not at all CG, but it it’s still great quality. It’s certainly something I would like my kids to watch.
The animation is adapted from the Japanese film PONYO and is written/directed by Hayao Miyazaki. PONYO opens in theaters August 14 under Disney/Sony.
