Spirited Away on Blu-ray Disc in November?

Posted on October 16th, 2009 at 08:07 PM by Ulrik | Deutsch

Despite Studio Ghilbi’s statement that Japan will be the first country to see their films on Blu-ray Disc, Dutch distributor Paradiso Home Entertainment announced Spirited Away (Sen to Chihiro no kamikakushi) for November. According to DVDInfo.be and bol.com, Hayao Miyazaki’s Oscar-winning feature will be released on Blu-ray Disc on November 19th with Dutch and French subtitles, so even if this will really hit the shelves in the Netherlands before Japan it won’t be of much use for most Ghibli fans…

[19.10.] Update: GhibliWorld.com’s Peter informed me that Paradiso will only release an upscaled version taken from their current master on Blu-ray Disc. meh!

    Immer wieder nett zu lesen und ich würde mich natürlich freuen….aber wirklich glauben kann man das nicht, befürchte ich.
    Warum sollten sie diesen Kurs einschlagen, erst in anderen Ländern zu veröffentlichen. Wirklich lohnend wäre das für sie nicht.

    Paradiso Film informed me it will only be an upscaled version of their older/current master. In that case it’s not “really” a blu-ray release IMHO.
