Once more an excellent review, Mr Epstein.
For those who can't wait and aren't desperate for the English lanugage track (and can make do with subtitles), then *please* consider getting the R3 version:
DTS 6.1
Good subtitles (I can't speak Japanese, but the subtitles are in good English and appear to match what's going on).
The second disc contains what appears to be the *full* movie (certainly far more than 10 minutes) in storyboard/sketchbook form.
There are a couple of extras in Japanese only (though bizarrely, there is an English menu page).
I'd advise a *little* bit of caution about letting easily-disturbed kids watch this movie. It isn't particularly violent or nasty, but some of the images are disturbing in an Alice in Wonderland (the original Lewis Carroll illustrated by Tenniel version, not the Disney abberation) kind of way. Having said that, my kids (aged 7 and 9) loved it and have already watched it again.
