Miyazaki did not watch "Demon Slayer: I'm just an old man picking up garbage!"


1905 film news In recent years, newcomers in the Japanese animation circle have appeared in large numbers, and the outside world will compare the results of Ghibli works every time they make a masterpiece. Now the theater version of "Demon Slayer: Wireless Train" has a strong momentum. The cumulative box office revenue of the film has exceeded 20.4 billion yen in 24 days. It has been firmly on the top spot for four consecutive weeks and has successfully ranked among the top five in Japanese film history. The film is even more optimistic that it is expected to challenge the Japanese film history champion, the studio Ghibli animation "Spirited Away" set a box office of 30.8 billion yen.



A few days ago, the Japanese weekly "FLASH" suddenly visited Hayao Miyazaki and asked him what he thought of "The Blade of Demon Slayer". When asked about "Ghost Extinction" is expected to surpass the box office results of "Spirited Away", he said dismissively: "I don't think it has anything to do with me. Everyone just worked hard to do it."


As for whether you have seen "Blade of Ghost Slayer"? Miyazaki responded: "I don't know how to watch, I rarely watch other works, I don't usually watch TV, I don't watch movies, I'm just an old man picking up rubbish", and has no interest in these things.



It is reported that Hayao Miyazaki, who has repeatedly stated that he wants to retire, opened a new work "What kind of life do you want to live" three years ago. The film is adapted from the novel of the same name published by Gensaburo Yoshino in 1937, which tells a 15-year-old. Under the guidance of uncles of college graduates, the youngsters explored friendship, rich and poor, discrimination, bullying, courage and other topics that cannot be avoided in life, in order to explore "the value of being a human being". The film was originally scheduled to be released in 2020, but it was postponed due to production schedule issues and the release time is to be determined.
