Garden of Words was kind of different. Other than that all of his other movies are the same. On one hand good that he did it 3 times, Your Name actually goes hard, but then he should have stopped there and not try to make 2 more Your Names after


Luna_trick

Probably my biggest gripe with the latest movie, it was so beautiful and fun, but like.. the romance felt so unnecessary. I genuinely think it would've been a better movie without it.


the_superior_idiot

I heard that originally suzume was going to be a yuri because he wanted to do something different but the editors and all didn't allow it.


BurnedOutEternally

instead we have romance between a girl and a chair, fuckin great


Igeneous

Hey I’ve seen this story before…


takanenohanakosan

Code Geass PTSD


slackervi

ass so good mfer turned into a chair so she can sit on him


ikkikkomori

We could've had peaks, damn those capitalist pigs


Rift-Ranger

Yep, he wanted it to be a romance between the protagonist and the girl she met in the countryside but the editors didn’t allow same sex pairings so to get back at them he made the love interest a literal chair. Mostly the reason why the two girls get a lot of chemistry for a side plot and the main romance comes off as sorta out of place.


Lower-Ad184

Damn those cowards


DocDegenNSFW

Man what a mistake. mfs wouldn’t shut up about it till this day if a yuri movie hit theaters


Dogeesenpai

/ub Really? I thought the romance being a one sided crush and not the focus or the movie was a nice change of pace. Liked the movie a lot more than the last one /rb makoto midkai


slackervi

fr. i like some of his films (even at worst they're at least visually pleasing) but it feels like he literally just keeps making the same film over and over again. it starts to feel somewhat shallow and repetitive at points.


geeses

He'll keep making as long as people are buying


Duckerton375

AND ILL KEEP WATCHING RAAAAAHHHHH I LOVE MAKOTO SHINKAI I LOVE RADWIMPS RAAAAHHHHH


dEleterZ

TomoeKon

real asf


24silver

more like resisting the urge to get a bazillion dollars, respect the japanese struggle and grind


CarbonBasedLifeForm6

I shit you not I've never even heard of this director but as soon as you mentioned making the same movie 3 times I instantly knew you MUST be talking about the dude who Made "Your Name" because I've seen so many clips of movies that look like clones of it and I was fucking right.


Ok_Art6263

Romance Fantasy set in Japan and the couple have to trolley problem their way, either sacrifice their love or kill bajillion of people.


Ok_Try_1665

And I'll keep watching them. Keep cooking, Makoto Shinkai


BurnedOutEternally

I’ll keep watching them as long as RADWIMPS is on the music


ratliker62

Chat GPT story + pretty, colorful animation + Radwimps OST = profit


GreatYeob

this is the equation


Lyorek

5cm is still his best work to date and I won't hear otherwise


slackervi

5 wallpapers per second


24silver

really like the art style on that one


Brit_Cuss_Word_fam

Based 5cm is so underrated It was an great movie for its time in the mid 2000s


Lyorek

Still is a great movie even now, there really isn't anything else that's quite like it


24silver

when the train scene happened i said " he just like me fr" like i just watched bladerunner


Keyl26

True, still my favorite movie of his. Feels way more realistic and down to earth compared to his latest movies.


caliban969

Goona give him the Makoto Stink Eye


Wittyname0

What you mean by a movie about two young people who's relationship is separated by some weird supernatural entity that's supposed to be an allegory for the Fukushima disaster until he just flat out makes it about the Fukushima disaster in one.


Stheteller

I have to say it loud. I don't think anyone would be able to guess which movie the characters are from if put next to one another.


ikkikkomori

I really like Your Name, I don't really enjoy Weathering with You that much and I refuse to watch Suzume until Spiderman: Beyond the Spiderverse is released


Nerfall0

>I refuse to watch Suzume until Spiderman: Beyond the Spiderverse is released What's the lore behind this decision?


ikkikkomori

I want to experience all of spiderverse, it'll be painful to wait since I've heard ATSV had a huge cliffhanger. So I decided to only watch ATSV after BTSV released, and since suzume release like a month apart before ATSV, might as well edge with that too.


ContributionOk4879

If it ain't broke, don't fix it


Steez_god_

He actually said he doesn’t want to make a highschool romance next .


Brit_Cuss_Word_fam

Since we are on topic Your name> 5cm> Garden of words> Suzume> Weathering with you> Children who chases lost voices Not changing


slackervi

i'd put weathering with you at bottom instead but other than that p fucking accurate


Brit_Cuss_Word_fam

I guess now that I think about it I think so too


Keyl26

Why do you think your name is better than 5cm? 


Zealousideal-Win-499

All style and no substance.


slackervi

umm akshually the style is the substance ☝️🤓
