Miyazaki vs the suicidal rodent

I've enjoyed the fruits of the Miyazaki blogathon, especially Walter Q. Bubble's own writing.

One difference between the output of Disney and the output of Miyazaki (there are few similarities between them as persons) is that Disney's softness feels like commercial calculation, while Miyazaki's softness feels like how the world should be. I mean those Disney kids, before they got declawed they were pretty messed up (click image to enlarge):

Donald, of course, was even worse.
