My friend's kid is hooked on Ponyo right now, and I feel like that will be the Miyazaki film burned into her soul from here on forward.

Your comment made me realize I am wrong. I was thinking Snow Queen and not Ice Queen. Craziest thing is I could have easily looked to the right of my desk and easily facy checked myself by looking at the DVD copy I have. I was thinking the 50s Soviet hand drawn movie.
The Earwig movie isn't really bad from an animation standpoint, but it is just so departed from Ghibli style animation that it feels a little too off putting for me, despite the story being fine.
With Franklin, it obviously isn't super deep considering the target audience. I just happen to really like that episode because, even as a college student, I feel it's relatable to me. The feeling of unwarranted worry Franklin feels his first ever day of courses is kinda how I feel my first day of classes, even if I don't show it. Though it's nowhere near as bad as portrayed by Franklin.
Snow queen, I think I found it, 1957, but I don't think I've seen that either. Sounds good, even just the poster looks very interesting artistically.
Thanks.
