YMMV: Tales from Earthsea
  • Narm: No matter your opinion on the movie, the scene in which Cob's arm is dramatically cut off definitely qualifies as this.
    • Therru's singing.
    • Any time Arren gets angry. He comes off like an Emo Teen trying to look tough.
  • Nightmare FuelThe rapid aging of Cob when struck by Arren's sword.
  • So Okay Its Average — What makes this so disappointing is the strength of the source material and that this is GHIBLI we are talking about. They just don't make mediocre material.
  • Tear Jerker — Therru's song
  • They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot — Some world-building elements—such as slavery—are introduced but never touched upon in detail.
    • Not only that, but many plot points introduced in the film's opening are dropped almost immediately after. Dragons returning, the death of the king and the implications of a war on the horizon all seem like they'd be major plot points later but are never brought up again.
