I don't think Disney would do that because that is not part of the Studio Ghibli line. As far as "waves" go, I think the March 2006 will be the last one. Only Yesterday, however dynamic as an animated film, is the least marketable and I Can Hear the Ocean Waves isn't even part of the deal. Slowly but surely, everything Ghibli from here on out will be released individually, or at least that's my hypothesis.castleinthesky wrote:Right now, I think that this would get a theatrical release, and then it would be released in the next wave. But the next wave probably won't come out for a while because of Only Yesterday's situation, Ocean Waves not being a priority, and the possibility of a section for Ghibli Shorts.Prince Eric wrote: I seriously hope this is not part of their next wave. I would like to see it have a proper theatrical release first. These movies are just beautiful to watch on that format.
However I could see Disney releasing the above 3 before Earthsea, and maybe buying the rights to Takahata's Horus: The Prince of the Sun, which would probably make a good companion to Earthsea.
