Princess Mononoke Is Beautiful, But Does It Have Rizz‪?‬ CineFix Top 100

“You cannot change your fate. However, you can rise to meet it, if you so choose.”

Hayao Miyazaki dropped one of his several masterpieces in 1997 with Princess Mononoke. Depicting the battle between Iron Town and ancient Gods of the forest, the film is a gorgeously animated adventure that paints it’s themes vividly front and center. Clint, Cal and Alex talk about where it fits in Miyazaki’s body of work, how James Cameron being a fan makes them feel about the movie, samurai swords in the mail and whether or not Prince Ashitaka has enough rizz to carry the movie.
Meanwhile, Dan’s algorithm plots to kill a god, by getting somebody else to do its dirty work.
