Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind

One of the greatest movies I have ever seen, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind is a Japanese animated masterpiece. Made by the acclaimed writer and director, Hayao Miyazaki, it is a story about the 'end of the world'.

A thousand years after the seven days of fire, the world is being engulfed by the Toxic Jungle, a poisonus jungle filled with toxic insects and different kinds of hazardous flowers. When gigantic insects, the Ohms, die, poisonous spores engulf their body, thus spreading the toxic jungle across the lands.

The legend goes, "After a thousand years of darkness, the hero will come, clad in blue and surrounded by fields of gold". The base of the story is to stop the Toxic Jungle from spreading, and to find the hero.

The movie is very artistic, both in writing and pictures. If you want to see a nice artistic movie, this is the one to see.

I agree, it was complete genious. It is one of my personal favorites. I couldn't believe it was made in the 80's

if you saw it on tooniami (CN) which i did it was COOL!!! i loved it and it was very good...good job mysitaky (sp) the guy who created it!!
