“The Girl Who Leapt Through Time” will screen in some U.S. theaters

Good news for fans of incredible animation. Mamoru Hosoda’s excellent animated feature film The Girl Who Leapt Through Time will have limited theatrical runs in New York, Los Angeles and Seattle. We here at Twitch flat out love this film and would implore anyone who lives in the cities to jump at the opportunity to see this wonderful film on the big screen, even if you have the import DVD at home and you have watched it over and over again as any of us have. Such a good movie!
The movie will screen at The ImaginAsian theaters in Los Angeles and New York from June 13 to 19, then at Landmark Theatres’ Varsity Theatre in Seattle from August 29 to September 4. The film will be subbed for Los Angeles and Seattle, while New York will have the dubbed version.
What’s going on in New York? Dubbed version? This implies two things. One, that New Yorkers are illiterate or two, they’re lazy. What a shame they cannot see it in its original language.
The report suggests that Bandai Entertainment, one of the company’s responsible for these screenings, also has plans to release the movie on DVD.

NY gets dubbed ONLY? Sweet, that’s eleven bucks I’ll be spending on something else. Well played, Bandai.

Seriously, Bandai, see what looking down on the East Coast gets you in the long run. I’ll give you a hint - it’s not money. We aren’t illiterate morons out here… and we hold a mean grudge, too.

As a NYer, I can attest first-hand that we ARE indeed all illiterate slobs that cream our pants at the very thought of Beverly Hillbillies marathons and the notion that somewhere out there, a Popeyes is opening in Chinatown.....every day. Oh, wait, not somewhere.....at the far East end of Canal Street.
YEAH! YEAH! YEAAAAAAH!

Well, if the dub is good… nah! Who am I kidding? Subs all the way!
