Ep. 11: Movies About Magic: Wizards (1977) & Ponyo (2008)

  • Summary

  • This week’s topic is movies about magic! Ryan and Shane discuss two animated films, Ralph Bakshi’s Wizards (1977) and Hayao Miyazaki’s Ponyo (2008). Both films use animation to show the audience unique and creative worlds and magical abilities. Wizards is a shoddily paced and vulgar depiction of a post-apocalyptic Earth with fairies, elves, and mutant Nazis. Ponyo, on the other hand, is an endearing and beautiful depiction of life on the Japanese coast and a magical underwater world. Join us in our discussion of these unique and fascinating animated movies about magic!
