News Gedo Senki US Release in Jeopardy
posted on 2006-10-17 10:36 EDT
Earthsea author calls out Sci Fi Channel for sitting on rights
Goro Miyazaki's Gedo Senki (Tales of Earthsea) may not see a US release until at least 2009, according to Earthsea author Ursula K. Le Guin. “Mr. Miyazaki's movie won't be shown as long as the Sci Fi Channel people sit on their rights, which they have until '09, unless they decide to stop being a dog in the manger,” she tells the New York Times.
The Sci Fi Channel aired a live action Tales of Earthsea series in 2004. According to the article, representatives from the Sci Fi Channel did not respond to calls seeking a comment.
Gedo Senki was Japan's highest grossing film this summer, bringing in more than $60 million in the box office.

Review: Final Fantasy XIII-2
"Rather than reinvent its predecessor, Final Fantasy XIII-2 just improves its ideas in smaller ways. It's more casually enjoyable than Final Fantasy XIII, but it's still unsatisfying in the long run." Check out Todd Ciolek's verdict on the latest in the long-running franchise now.

The strength of Only Serious About You lies in its depiction of not just two men coming together, but in the formation of a family.
There's plenty of visual flourish to keep fans interested, with over-
Ouran High School Host Club GN 17
There is but one volume remaining to Ouran High School Host Club, and it has been a fun ride. While this book doesn't quite live up the earlier ones in terms of pure, lighthearted enjoyment, it is still solidly entertaining.

Cage of Eden GN 2 & 3
Cage of Eden has all of the elements of a classic survival epic – monsters, diseases, an unfriendly wilderness with no perceived escape, and our own ability as humans to lie. While it can be laid on a bit thick at times, and the fanservice or treatment of the adult female characters may be objectionable to some, Yamada's story is an engrossing one.

A perverted young man becomes the master to a sexy, emotionally stunted, angel-like android with frightening power in this 2009 harem series. Though occasionally good, the series much more often wallows in crass stupidity.
Blue Exorcist DVD 2
Nothing here shakes up the series the way parts of the last volume did, but it's consummate entertainment nonetheless: slick and effortlessly propulsive, yet still respectful of its audience and characters.
