The first one I recall hearing reported in Japan to be Miyazaki's 'last film' was Porco Rosso .. back in 1992!! :mrgreen:

I never really liked Miyzaki's movies much, but I found the Nausicaa manga interesting.

I actually do know someone who is "packaging" a movie at the moment, and their last stop is WB. And they’re not the only ones…
