Kiki's Delivery Service, Laputa Castle In The Sky, Princess Mononoke, and Nausicaa Valley Of The Wind. What are the other movies on this box set? Ive searched and its like this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...048768&rd=1 but Ive seen Spirited Away and its not in the set or aleast not the set I got.
Hi Baron! Welcome to the forums.
Just an FYI, the only legit DVD set is the R3 version released by IVL, which contains 11 DVDs for 11 different Ghibli titles, from Nausicaa to The Cats Return (excluding Grave of the Fireflies, Ocean Waves and Yamda-kun).
I suppose yours is a bootleg like the one in the ebay link. But even bootlegs have different manufacturers and versions. The one in the ebay link seems to be quite out-dated. The newer ones should at least have spirited away included. There are also some more extensive "archives," selling for about HK$100 (~US$12., which include not only the Ghibli titles, but also the earlier Miyazaki/Takahata classics like Panda kopanda, Cagliostro, Chie the Brat, Gauche the cellist, etc. By chances that your own set is that kind and contains those earlier movies.
btw I have seen the legit R3 Ghibli set few days ago on sale in an HMV branch for HK$2200 (~US$282.4). Seems like it has been rotting there for ages and no one has the slightest interest of buying it. Well, it is just far too overpriced. Buying the discs seperately means a nearly 50% discount . Months ago there was another shop selling the set for about $1200 (~US$154). That was a much more reasonable price.
