They're great movies. Porco Rosso is a little on the odd side. Spirited Away is really good, and was up for an Oscar I think for animated film. I believe it won. Disney has been bringing the Miyazaki films over so the dubbing is good. The show talking about how they do it is interesting. Apparently they match the mouth movements made by the animation, so the dialolgue sometimes changes to make things fit, since it takes different amounts of time so say the same things in English versus Japanese. If I recall correctly, English is faster, so it sometimes needs extra words put in.
I also consider the Miyazaki movies a good "baby step" into Anime for the people who aren't familiar with it. There are a lot of assumptions surrounding it (like how everyone is big eyed, big haired, and acts like a porn star) and it can be a pain in the rear end trying to correct what people assume about Japanese cartoons.
Tea?
