Why did you censor "masterpieces"?

Well yeah, I'd be tired of people talking about a TV show on r/movies, too.

the line between tv and movies has blurred a lot these last few years when including things like the star wars shows or the MCU shows that tie in with the movies

I actually really like the ending.

Personally, I think a clean, modern Hollywood type ending would do a disservice to the film, and not be in tone with what it’s already established; for an animated film it has a surprisingly nuanced take on people, the natural world, war, and society- there’s very few goody-goodies or outright villains.

For me, the more ambiguous ending is in line with this. San doesn’t return to humanity. Ashitaka doesn’t return to his tribe. Eboshi is maimed and reevaluates the direction the people of Iron Town are headed in. But they all come to a mutual understanding, and there’s a hint of a brighter future with the kodama appearing at the end.

It’s short and to the point, kind of like a classic, old Hollywood ending; and I like the fact it doesn’t overstay it’s welcome like a lot of modern films.

Rushed? I don’t felt hat way about it at all. We may not be with them on their road to recovery because it’s going to take a long time, but we do get some glimpses of hope. It’s a beautiful ending. (If anything, I feel like Nausicaa was a little rushed.)

I think the best resolution is to make your community better in whatever way you can. It’s what Miyazaki is all about.

I'm trying to see your point of view, but I think I might be biased ;)

Joking aside, it's a valid criticism, and I personally would love more time with the characters; it does have to end sometime, though, I suppose.

I wasn't sure that it was, but then I started writing it out and realized that with the forest, the animals, and Irontown gone - there's nothing preventing the samurai mob from taking the iron.

What a fucking bummer.
