Knowning Miyazaki's hate for most technology he must have been sickened upon learning of this "trending...."

But Happy Birthday!

Haha, sure the guy may dislike some aspects of today's technology, but I HIGHLY he would have a single negative thought about people wishing him happy birthday on Twitter. (Heck-- even Facebook, MySpace (<-- if that still exists), Orkut, or any other online social network.) I wouldn't be surprise if he doesn't even know it. Laughing

I admit, I too was also a bit worried when I noticed Miyazaki was trending worldwide.

I just hope I wasn't the only person that visited google.jp expecting to see a decorative Hayao Miyazaki Google logo. lol.

miyazaki getting older means his biological clock is running out, and I kind of want him stay around forever so I'll at least have new ghibli movies to look forward, but I hope he has a happy birthday. I kind of want to go to that laputa screening, but I have no idea where the toonseum is. I've lived in the pittsburgh area for almost 5 years now and I've never even heard of it Embarassed guess I'll google it.

I saw it in the paper and I immediatly threw a "touchdown" signal and said "HEEEEYYYYY!". As one of my friends said, "He's a living legand."

A Blu-Ray of any Miyazaki movie would be great but Mononoke would be increadible.

For those who live in Mexico city, there are screenings of his movies, since last month and until 23rd of this month, in the Cineteca Nacional.

I don't live there, but I guess this is a very rare occasion.
