Oct. 16th, 2006 10:42 amA decent, if decidedly 'ooh, loooook at the craaaaaazy anime' type article in The New York Times about Goro Miyazaki's animated Tales of Earthsea. Love the following snippet for how fucktardy it is:
When American audiences will have the chance to judge Goro Miyazaki’s work for themselves is an open question. There is currently no plan to distribute “Gedo Senki” to theaters in the United States; the rights are tied up with a 2004 Sci-Fi Channel mini-series.
Yes, thank you Sci-Fi. A truly terrible miniseries will possibly keep this film from being distributed in the US until 2009. Gah, people are stupid.
