      in awed shock Y'know, last year I spoke with a sf/fantasy agent who used to be Ursula K. Leguin's agent and she came to my college con, and when I spoke to her about movie rights she told me that Ghibli had the rights to Earthsea. I wasn't sure if I believed her.

      But she was right! WOO-HOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Small catch: Miyazaki isn't director. It's his son, Goro. That could be a good or a bad thing, I'm not sure. Has he directed anything before?

          No, he hasn't. He intentionally avoided to stand in same field as his father, but couldn't resist the temptation of creating Anime XD Let's see how it goes.

          Ursula has been saying no for movie adaptation, but 3 years ago, she gave an OK saying only Miyazaki can make this story into the movie.

            I've never read the books, but this look's awesome anyway. 😃

            Wasn't there an Earthsea TV movie a year or so ago?

                Well, technically it is a Miyazaki doing the movie . . . .

                Yeah, but from what I heard it was complete crap.
