The Last Reel
The Japanese studio behind Hayao Miyazaki ( Spirited Away , My Neighbor Totoro ). Though they release films rarely, each production is an event. The Boy and the Heron (2023) won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature. Ghibli films are consistent top-sellers on Max (formerly HBO Max).
The new management was efficient. They gutted Aether’s creative division, fired the storyboard artists, and fed the studio’s entire library into Holloway’s —an algorithm that chopped classic scenes into bite-sized, trend-chasing clips. The Little Lantern was rebooted as a gritty, tattooed antihero. Captain Comet became a cameo in a Holloway battle royale video game.
