Yeah, I almost feel like "anime" and "Miyazaki" should be separate categories.

Miyazaki is, by accepted common usage, anime. I'm interested to hear why you think it should be in a different category*, if because "it's so good".. wouldn't removing the best thing from a category just be another way of saying the category itself isn't good enough to contain the thing? (but it does, so it is)..
*or maybe, "because it isn't based on a Manga"?
or something else

I just meant that he's in a category all his own precisely because he's so good. Of course he's anime, but very little else in anime reaches his level of perfection when it comes to food.

You people are weird. The only time I have ever noticed/cared about the food was in Crocodile Dundee. but not because it was good -just the humour

Are any of these posts in English?
Am I having a stroke or something?

Well I had a stroke and let me tell you I barely understand them.

Cultural stroke I guess, kids today.

That’s the ticket. Some consider it to be an anime movie and thus in the movie category much like the way we differentiate an animated movie from a cartoon. We don’t just call them all cartoons even though they’re all animated.

Weird that the first work I thought of as another example of "high art" in the anime genre was Madoka Magica, also not based on a Manga, although absolutely a distillation of years of Shoujo "magical girl" Anime/Manga.
