6-28-00---- Further Mononoke DVD Update Source: Nausicaa Net
Seattle, Washington, 2:15pm Pacific Time.
I just got off the phone with Mr. David Jessen, VP of Special Acquisitions, Buena Vista Home Entertainment. Due to a schedule change on his part, he will only be attending Anime Expo on Friday, and we have made arrangements to meet Friday morning at 10am for breakfast. This will coincide with AX 2000's Opening Ceremonies in Live Programming room 1, however.
To answer your most burning questions:
Q. Is the August 29th day-and-date release official? A. Yes.
Q. What will be available on August 29th? A. The English-dubbed DVD with a bonus French language track will be available for purchase. The English-dubbed VHS will be available for rental. The DVD will not carry a Japanese language track.
Q. Why will the English DVD not include a Japanese language track? A. Because the Japanese office of BUENA VISTA (not Studio Ghibli) requested it. There has been no DVD release of Mononoke yet, and sales of a Region 1 version DVD could still threaten sales of a Region 2 version in Japan. DVD piracy and importation are significant enough problems, regardless of the benefits of region-encoding.
Q. Will an English DVD with Japanese language and subtitles be available after the Japanese DVD release of Mononoke? A. No. However, *if there is sufficient interest*, when the VHS rental copies run out and have to be reprinted/remastered, he will request that two versions be made: the original VHS dub sell-through and a new VHS widescreen subtitled sell-through.
Q. How may fans let Disney know there is "sufficient interest" in a subtitled version of Mononoke on VHS? A. Mr. Jessen and I will discuss this when we meet at AX 2000 on Friday. Meanwhile, please write to me with your vote, so that I can surprise him with your enthusiasm!
In an e-mail message sent DIRECTLY to me (michj@nausicaa.net), please provide the following information:
the words "I will buy subtitled Mononoke" in the subject line your real name (no nicknames, please) your city and state (or province and country for non-US residents) the statement (or some reasonable variation) "If it is made available, I fully intend to purchase at least ___ copy/ies of the film Princess Mononoke in the Japanese language with English subtitles, in widescreen (letterboxed) format, even if this means it will be more expensive than the English-only version."
(Fill in the blank ("___") with the number of copies you'd buy.)
OPTIONAL: add the statement "I would prefer a DVD/VHS release with these features over the English-only releases currently scheduled for August 29, 2000."
(Erase the choice, DVD or VHS, that you don't want.)
Please note that I will print out all of these messages and present them to Mr. Jessen on Friday morning, June 30th, 2000, so get your mail to me ASAP!
Privacy warning: If you would prefer not to have your name, e-mail address, or other personal information given to Buena Vista Home Entertainment, please do not send me this piece of e-mail. 6-28-00---- Mononoke FeedbackExceprted from an e-mail sent out by John Andersen:
Hello everyone,
This post is in regard to the recent issue regarding the Princess Mononoke DVD.
I spoke with David Jessen on the evening of June 26th 2000, he is the liaison for Tokuma Shoten at Buena Vista Home Entertainment. He has just begun this position at the company, and was unaware of the negative feedback concerning the exclusion of a Japanese language track and english subtitles from the Princess Mononoke DVD. He would like to assess the interest into how many people would like to see a Japanese language track on the DVD.
He is very enthusiastic in hearing feedback from Miyazaki fans, constructive feedback can be sent to him at his office address which is:
David Jessen c/o Buena Vista Home Entertainment 350 South Buena Vista Street Burbank, CA 91521-4691
He would like to know how many people out there would like to see a Princess Mononoke DVD release with a Japanese language track and english subtitles. Mr. Jessen is very enthusiastic about receiving feedback since he has just begun the position, so please give it to him. Any feedback or suggestions about the future releases of Hayao Miyazaki's films can be sent to him.
The future of seeing Miyazaki's films on DVD with a Japanese audio track and english subtitles count on your feedback. Please take a moment of your time to type up a polite letter, put in an envelope, and send in your thoughts about how you want to see Miyazaki's films.
Thank you.
Sincerely, John Andersen
It gives me yet another reason to hate MPAA and Disney in particular.
For example, the second part of the block could include information for providing the complete address of an another block which would be selected by the operation of a selected key of the keyboard.
So, their patent only covers hyperlink using a keyboard to activative the link. I've read their "claims" section, even in it they didn't mention about other means of activation (e.g. mouse click). AFAIK, patent laws only a protects the exact implementation.
Does it meant that only the lynx users are affected?:)

16Mbit SDRAM x2: Etrontech EM63165TS-6 (4M bytes)

Same as Linksys WRT54GC
I think you mean incompatible?

Not mean to troll. Really.
