Kjempebra Mario! Bestilte nettopp en selv som jeg skal gi i gave til ei venninne i USA :)

This is great! FINALLY Scandinavians can share this brilliant gem of a movie with friends and family in the US and Canada! :D Brilliant gift idea for any true movie fan!

I think you should have done the english over again with better narrators and voiceovers. Compared to the norwegian one, it sounds so boring.

I think the English version is rather good myself... but don't you agree that we should let native English speakers be the final judges. British audience will be delighted to hear Murray Walker as the commentator during the exciting race.

For reference you may check out a clip from the English language version of Pinchcliffe Grand Prix at YouTube:

Mario Caprino:

Can you please tell me if the Ashlad and His Good Helpers DVD will be available in NTSC in the near future? http://www.caprino.no/shop/en/items/movie_dvd3.asp

I'm interested in buying it, but I would prefer waiting for the NTSC version if I know it's going to be released soon (I live in the USA). If not, then I'll just buy the PAL version.

Edit: I just got my question answered through email.

For forum readers that may be having the same question as the poster above I will repeat our e-mail reply here:

Unfortunately we only have "Pinchcliffe Grand Prix" in the NTSC format. Our other animated movies are available in PAL only. We do not have specific plans to release NTSC version of these movies in the near future.

You may know that you can always use a PC that can play DVDs to view our movies in PAL format. There are also DVD players today that can show both the PAL and NTSC movies.

I'm glad to hear it's available in NTSC.

Now it's just too bad this isn't distributed on Netflix!

So many more people would know about it and be able to watch this gem if it was available from Netflix.

And it'd be awesome if the other animated movies were available in NTSC format as well! Americans love these movies too, just as much as the Europeans. ;)

Peace
