Looks like the Gedo movie will be more based on the third Earthsea book, The Farthest Shore, though it will contain elements of all the first three books. ("Gedo Senki" is apparently the Japanese title for the series as a whole.) The movie has apparently been on the backburner for a couple of years; LeGuin approached Ghibli three years ago, saying only Miyazaki could make a real Earthsea film. He was busy working on Howl's Moving Castle, so Suzuki offered the director's job to Goro Miyazaki. I guess this timeframe explains how the film can come out next July when it was just announced a day or so ago!

In other news, I apparently hurt my right arm last night/this morning. I've taken some motrin and it's better, but it still hurts; think I pulled a muscle or something. Yay.
