I'm very excited about this movie. I've been a fan of Ursula for a very long time, and to see that she supports the movie and is on good terms with it is better, though she does say some negative things about it.

The sample of the song on the Offical Japanese Site (http://www.ghibli.jp/ged/) and Japanese (http://youtube.com/watch?v=YnVCK0jXlJ8) Trailer ([url=http://youtube.com/watch?v=C5ehRnwNDs8) is the most beautiful song I've ever heard in Japanese [sorry Mononoke Hime and Champloo...]. Art looks top notch and the style is very stylized. I just wonder if Goro Miyazaki can live up to the hype and his fathers legacy.

But you know, screw waiting until '09 if the UK and AUS gets it this year.
