to me that stinks.
You know Earthsea was doomed to fail when even Miyazaki senior was not happy over his son handling it. Yeah, I should have seen it coming for earthsea.

But if you americans think that anime is seen as kiddy stuff in USA, it is not better in Europe either.

AFAIK, in France, only Miyazaki, Oshii and Kon's works are respectable enough to not be lumped with Naruto and Sailor Moon by critics, you know the snobs who would watch nothing but "High class" cinema.
