To my disappointment, "Kiki's Delivery Service" was not mentioned among their 1998 video releases, but Mononoke-hime did get two mentions: In the section titled 'Filmed Entertainment': "Miramax's 1999 slate includes ... 'Princess Mononoke', an animated folktale directed by Hayao Miyazaki, whom some call "the Walt Disney of Japan," and featuring the voices of Gillian Anderson, Minnie Driver and Clair Danes, ... ." In the section titled 'Buena Vista Home Entertainment': "In Japan, BVHE released the country's number-one-selling videocasette of all time, 'Princess Mononoke', which sold more than four million units. The report contained no pictures of their (or their subsidiaries) Japanese titles. Any typos in the above quotes were more than likely mine. ^_^; ----------End quote--------------------- _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
