I told Miyazaki I love the “gratuitous motion” in his films; instead of every movement being dictated by the story, sometimes people will just sit for a moment, or they will sigh, or look in a running stream, or do something extra, not to advance the story but only to give the sense of time and place and who they are.
“We have a word for that in Japanese,” he said. “It’s called ma. Emptiness. It’s there intentionally.”
Is that like the “pillow words” that separate phrases in Japanese poetry?
“I don’t think it’s like the pillow word.” He clapped his hands three or four times. “The time in between my clapping is ma. If you just have non-stop action with no breathing space at all, it’s just busyness, But if you take a moment, then the tension building in the film can grow into a wider dimension. If you just have constant tension at 80 degrees all the time you just get numb.”
Which helps explain why Miyazaki’s films are more absorbing and involving than the frantic cheerful action in a lot of American animation. I asked him to explain that a little more.
“The people who make the movies are scared of silence, so they want to paper and plaster it over,” he said. “They’re worried that the audience will get bored. They might go up and get some popcorn.
But just because it’s 80 percent intense all the time doesn’t mean the kids are going to bless you with their concentration. What really matters is the underlying emotions–that you never let go of those.
— Roger Ebert in conversation with Hiyao Miyazaki
Entrapta: An unstable portal is the only thing that would account for all the anomalies. The portal exists somewhere in our world, and as long as it’s still open, it’s going to keep destabilizing reality, making things disappear faster and faster, until, bam, there’s nothing left!
Entrapta: [loud, delighted cackling]
Entrapta, after an ‘oh right’ pause: (solemn tone) Which is a bad thing.
me: I’ve known Entrapta for a week, but if anything happened to her I would kill everyone in the video media industry and then myself.
Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket? Free Drinks and Bad Advice.Enticing Propositions, Nebulous Boundaries, Hijinks Ensue. General things that catch my interest, could be anything…Sebastian Stan, Winter Soldier stuff…probably with some porn sprinkled in too..... I'm all over the internet and don't always remember where I got things so if you see a picture or something and I don't have it credited correctly, please just let me know and I'll correct it or if it's yours and you'd like it taken down I will.
