I swear Castle in the Sky has the best soundtrack of all the Miyazaki movies...

[impp010]

[Therealguymins]

ARE YOU GAWBLINS COME TO TORMENT MEH?

[svessiere]

@manofsteam1 I really love that exchange. It really tells you that Uncle Pom is very much in touch with nature and aware of things that many humans are not. That and I really loved Richard Dysart's vocal performance of the character; he brought a lot of warmth and heart to the role.

The rocks talk to you?

Oh, yes, Pazu, the Earth speaks to all of us. And if we listen, we can understand.

@TheEchoesofMetroid How amusing; I actually didn't pick up on that. But yeah, something tells me that Miyamoto WAS inspired by this film for that game. (Now if only he could get Leachman and Hamill—nah, just a pipe dream; they both worked great in this film, but I doubt they would in a ZELDA game. Still, a funny idea, huh?)

so in anticipation for Zelda Skyward Sword. . who else has been watching Castle in the Sky?

[DerAussenseiterFa100]

Amazing.....

@Turnajon As much as I love these tracks, I actually haven't had the chance to watch through the entire re-release (2010) with the new, more minimalist soundtrack. It's sad to know some of my favorites will be missing, but I think I'll give it a shot nonetheless.

As much as I know that some fans prefer the original score, I ultimately don't think it is very fair to say that the newer score is in any way a travesty or inferior, because it is certainly not true as far as I'm concerned. There were at least one or two cues that seemed a little gratuitous, but otherwise there's nothing wrong with the rerecorded score in my opinion.
