Castle in the Sky

Doug (vo): The awesomeness of Castle in the Sky can be summed up right in the very opening. Ships are soaring through the air, a young girl falls out, a boy discovers her, and suddenly, a glowing crystal causes her to slowly but surely float down to the ground while enchanting music is played. Yep, that's the movie in a nutshell, and I mean that in a very positive way. Castle in the Sky has all of the ambitious adventure of a kids' film that you remember watching in the 80s, the ones that had a touch of an edge but mostly a very timeless, endearing feel to them, the ones like Return to Oz or Labyrinth, the ones that still seem to hold up after so many years...eh, for the most part. There's no David Bowie copies in this. Though maybe the head of that robot could...anyway.
