Nausicaa.net reports the following:

Nausicaa.net wrote:February 2, 2005 [New!] Updated: "Howl's Moving Castle" US Premier on June 10

The El Capitan Theater (owned and operated by Disney) is listing Howl's Moving Castle under June 10.

Brazzo reports that "according to a friend of mine at Exhibitor Relations" the film goes into its first expanded release on June 17.

Thanks to suzi for the news.


:grin: :dance: :dizzy:

All I can say is...Mwahahahahaaaawhoohoo! Hopefully it wont take a year before it reaches South African cinemas again. :)

Also let us not forget the release of "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Winds", "Porco Rosso" and "The Cat Returns" on the 23rd of February.

Oh joy!! Oh, I just can't wait to see this one.


. . . And of course if Nausicaa ever gets released, I'll want to see that too. *shakes fist at Disney*

*o*/ I can't wait! I'm looking forward to this one more than I had been looking forward to Spirited Away before its release. *happy seizure*

A little off-subject but "Nausicaa.net" is saying to that Disney wants to...make a live-action version of Kiki's Delivery Service". :bang: Am I the only one horrified by the prospect???

Hurrah! I know I won't be watching any dub version, though. Subtitles all the way for Miyazaki wonderfulness. ^__^

Not to splitting hares, but where are you going to get a subtitled version on the big screen if its a general released with a dub? Unless a film-festival gets a print thats not dubbed then you'll have to skip the big screen for the DVD. Shouldn't such movies be experienced on the big screen rather than the small?

w00t! I'm really looking forward to this movie. I hope it comes to my local theatres, unlike Spirited Away and most other animes... Miyazaki films usually have good English dubs with famous actors/actresses, so I'm not too worried about that. I'd love to see it in the theatres.

Ick, I don't like the look of this one. Sounds packed with sorcery. I don't want to see Spirited Away, so I think I'll be skipping this one as well. >_<

I actually had not heard much about this untill yesturday when I read an article about Miazaki in an old issue of New Yorker magizine. It's good to know that it will be coming our way before too long.
