I dunno - getting both English and Japanese DTS, 5.1 Dolby and plain 
stereo is pretty damn fine to me. Otherwise, I just want the damn 
movie. If we get more extras, great fine wonderful - but first off, I 
want the movie.

As to what they've been doing all that time, they were waiting for 
the materials to begin production if memory serves me. They can't do 
too much when the tracks are all on the other side of the pond.

Mind you, while I wish Gainax was faster in getting the production 
materials to Manga, I can tell you that Manga screwed Digby in 
announcing ship dates before having the materials in hand. I've said 
it before and I'll say it again : people bitch at ADV for not 
announcing until they have finished product, but THAT'S THE WAY YOU 
DO IT.
