howl`s moving castle, Hauru no ugoku shiro

HI!

Did someone saw this film?
I don´t really know if it´s on theatres but i love all Hayao Miyazaki´s films.
He is a Japanise director and I think he´s really good

the film is based on an english book of Diana Wynne Jones , with the same title

I saw this back a while ago in theaters, I imagine it should be coming out on DVD relatively soon if it isn't already. If you enjoy Miyazaki's other work then you'll no doubt adore this. Not the deepest anime I've ever seen, but it definitely does get you feeling for the characters and is very well animated (as Miyazaki's films tend to be). All in all, I'd definitely recommend you see it if you haven't yet.

PS: See that scarecrow in the middle of the poster? BEST CHARACTER EVER!!

yep the scarecrow is very good , but I also liked the dog and the fire.

The strange thing is that I can´t find it without subtitles, and there (in spain) it´s not in theatres or dvd...

did you saw it in japanese with subtitles? I really really want to see it in english or spanish, but my only option nowadays is internet... not theatres

I remember the first film of miyazaki that I saw many years ago was Laputa, the castle in the sky.. but I went´mad when I realized that he was the same of Chihiro to Sen (Spirited Away) and Howl´s

Actually, when I saw it in theaters it was dubbed with English voiceovers. I'd actually prefer to snag a copy with the original japanese voice acting and english subtitles. I prefer anime untampered with but this movie wasn't butchered as far as dubbing it into english.

thanks zekk

i don´t really mind reading the subtitles, but in this case i don´t understand a word of japanese.. well , kind of arigatoo and a few more words that´s why i was hoping to find the film in english at least.. but i think it´s going out on dvd on march 2006

[Zekk_T_Strife]

I looked it up, the english dubbed (and subbed) DVD is supposed to be released March 7. I'll definitely be picking up a copy too.

Hada, I don't know have You watched it or not, but I can Recommend You Sen to Chihiro no kamikakushi (Spirited Away), it's also Hayao Miyazaki film/anime and it's one of my favorite.
