I’M A WINNER!!
July 2, 2009
Okay, I think I’ve posted enough about Ponyo On The Cliff By The Sea but I was excited enough to enter a Twitter contest to win a copy of the Japanese DVD from GhibliWorld.com, WHICH I TOTES WON.
IN YOUR FACE, BITCHES!*
I can’t wait! Now I get to watch this movie anytime I want! My only question is that it could be a region 2 DVD which means hopefully we have that old DVD player that can play it. Do we? B? Hello?
I was able to watch a regionally coded DVD from the UK on my laptop by temporarily switching over the region setting… but Windows apparently only allows you to change the region setting like 3 times ever, or something. That, and unless you have the necessarily cables to output your computer video to the television, you’d have to watch it on the computer screen…
Just rip it using Dvd rip or handbrake and reencode it to NTSC and burn it to dvd.
Yayyy!!! Mazel tov!
I just watched a ripped version online with subtitles. Pure love. It’s now one of my favorite Miyazaki films. It was just pure sweetness and innocence. I can’t wait to watch it again. I told my friend that he was an idiot. Ponyo was pure perfection.
The one thing I didn’t get at all though, was why Sōsuke kept calling his parents by their first names.
oh good! you’re the first person i know who’s actually seen it, so this makes it even more exciting.
