Twin enthusiasms

Miyazaki, Miyazaki, Miyazaki.

Watched "Castle In The Sky" tonight. A two-hour burst of fun, energy and world-creation that the Disney folk only dream they could do. And that's why they bought the U.S. rights to all of Miyazaki's superb anime. "Castle" is available right now in a 2-DVD set. (One DVD has the movie, in English and Japanese, and the other has the storyboards for the movie -- drawn by Miyazaki himself -- accompanied by the soundtrack.)

Say You Will

As unfashionable and er -- white -- as this sounds, I bought the new Fleetwood Mac album Friday. Some good tunes on there.
