My friend's kid is hooked on Ponyo right now, and I feel like that will be the Miyazaki film burned into her soul from here on forward.

Song of the Sea. I just love the duality of the fantasy. That each of the mythical beings are all people from the main character's life such that the movie could just as well be about a young boy coming to terms with the death of his mother as it could be a real dive into celtic mythology.

Yea love this, I got to see the Secret of Kells in Theater and actually see the Book of Kells at Trinity College in Ireland, but haven't seen wolfwalkers yet.

As fantastic as Song of the Sea and The Secret of Kells are, Wolfwalkers is my favourite of the three. Do yourself a favour and go see it.

Done amd done, I generally, we watched the Secret of Kells every couple of years, so I'm due for that style of animation and mythtelling anyway.

I just stumbled across that film and watched it on a whim.

It was amazing.
