I'd love for the film to be released, but look how long it took for a certain
company to distribute the movies "Kiki's Delivery Service" and "Castle in the
Sky", which they had completed for several YEARS. they may have done better
with "Spirited Away" and "Princess Mononoke", those successes do not erase
their failure on the others, nor on the other titles they own the American
release rights to, but appear to be doing nothing with. In short, while I
would be overjoyed to see the release of "Nausicaa" go off quickly and without
difficulties, I won't be holding my breath.
