With six weeks until Hayao Miyazaki's new film, 'How Do You Live?' premieres, Toshio Suzuki, the longtime Ghibli producer, said that there will be no other images released ahead of the first screening.
Most of the time Miyazaki does his own thing, so I can’t really say what their reasoning is, but he does put out classics, so he gets the benefit of the doubt in a way a lot of studios and creators do not.
I am going to watch it anyway, so seeing footage before hand doesn’t really add anything for me.
Same here, but it’s a bold decision. I don’t recall any major movie that didn’t release any footage before its release.
I wonder what their reasoning behind it is. Concerns about potential spoilers? Them not liking the trailers for their previous movies?
