Today in 1986, a legendary anime film first hit theaters. Laputa: Castle in the Sky was the first film produced by the now legendary Studio Ghibli and was written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki. This is a beautiful film of a girl with a key to a lost civilization having to run from government agents and air pilots who all want to unlock and utilize the secrets of a lost floating city.
As amazing as this film is, it has a bit of a problem in the naming department. The thing is, the film's titular floating castle takes its name and concept from the book Gulliver's Travels, and while the Laputa in the novel is supposed to be satire of England, it's name directly translates to something crass in Spanish. This gave Studio Ghibli a lot of headaches during international localizations, as the name of their family fantasy movie was considered vulgar. Despite this, the film is beloved around the world and like most of Miyazaki's films with Ghibli, it's considered a must watch.
Oh what a classic film, I didn't know that about the films title though that's hilarious
