The Digital Bits: Celebrating Film on Disc - DVD & Blu-ray

... a number of you have asked about possible Blu-ray releases of Hayao Miyazaki's Castle in the Sky, My Neighbor Totoro and KiKi's Delivery Service, which Disney is re-releasing in new DVD special editions on 3/2. Consider this Rumor Mill-worthy, but our sources tell us they are in the works, however they'll likely be released in Japan first. They're probably at least a good year away from U.S. release.

So, Christmas 2010? We should have plenty to keep us busy between then and now.

I am glad that we're getting interim DVD remasters of the Miyazaki titles. The current U.S. pressings are terrible compared to the imports — Spirited Away in particular is extremely bad, which makes me glad I didn't give up my Region 2 edition, funny color balancing or not.
