This movie interested me for one main reason- almost every scene involved food. The plot is after you die, you go to this after-life for a week or so to "defend" your life (so you can be reincarnated to a better life). While you are there, you get to eat pretty much whatever you want, too.
This is the only pic I can find where they are eating, but they do eat a lot in this movie!
There were a lot of food scenes in this movie. The family eating together (several times), Edward chopping cabbage for coleslaw, the cookies at the beginning? Where to start?
Remember when Lady and the Tramp have that famous Italian meal? Can't you just taste the juicy meatballs, and the delicious, seasoned spaghetti? drools
While not as hunger-inducing as Ponyo and Spirited Away, My Neighbour Totoro still made me hungry. Those yummy, fresh veggies from Grannie's garden? And the japanese lunch? YUM!
Another Miyazaki film, of course. Remember when Chihiro and her parents are at the "abandond theme park" that isn't really an abandoned theme park? And her parents eat the food of the Gods? I was drooling for food I don't even know the name of! There were other yummy scenes, too.
Unfortunately this was the best pic of the food I could find, but you should have seen those dumplings and egg rolls before the parents scarfed it down!
These movies make me hungry. I know, I know, that's not the point of them... not really Oh yeah, Charlie and the Chocolate factory wasn't added because nothing in that movie looked *that* good to me.
