Anyone surprised this was a box-office hit here in the states?




It was a runaway hit for 3 weeks at number two and it seems it's the only anime movie to get a good box-office revenue in history as audiences are embracing Miyazaki including kids.

Even the voice actors helped like that Jonas kid and Cyrus kid.

I suppose it helped that it had such an all-star cast.

Don't think about elephants.
