hi kids,

does anyone have English R2 DVD release dates for spirited away and laputa castle in the sky? i know spirited aways out in cinemas on 12 september, but after much googling i cant get any release dates for either film coming out on region 2 DVD.  
i cant get my player to convert to multi region unfortunately, otherwise id have ordered them from the states.

and might i add that hayao miyazaki films kick serious arse.

regional variations seem to be a constant frustration for my bad self.

cheers,  
☹

Here’s the website for all things Ghibli related (in English, anyway): [http://www.nausicaa.net](http://www.nausicaa.net)

According to their [upcoming release page,](http://www.nausicaa.net/miyazaki/video/release.html) Castle in the Sky comes out in the UK on October 27, along with Kiki’s Delivery Service. No mention of Spirited Away, though.

I believe Porco Rosso has a release date for UK as well. Man, I love that movie…
