a quick squiz at IMDB claims that a new dub is being done (if you belive
them) http://us.imdb.com/AlternateVersions?0092067
I don't know if thats good or bad  ( I didn't like their interpretation of
Jiji in Kiki - too much like Salem from Sabrina, which I assume was the
idea) but as long as they leave the 'I'm built like a Brick Muppet' line in
I'm happy :)

not have, such as Future Boy Conan (TV series), the previously mention • Sherlock
Hound, the Lupin III TV series, and the Lupin III movie Castle of • Cagliostro
(released here by Manga Entertainment).

As to english dubs, Laputa does currently have one, but Disney is • frightened of
doing more since Mononoke didn't even make back its dubbing costs on the
theatrical run.  Just goes to show that they don't know how the anime • industry
works...

They have already renamed it Castle In The Sky as I believe Laputa • translates
to prostitute in some languages.

Correct, Laputa means prostitute, or something similar, in Spanish. • Castle in
the Sky was always part of the title, though.  They just dropped the
questionable part.  ;)

(...) Yes, Laputa's dub is done, and has been done for a long time. The first release delay for it was due to Jo Hisaishi wanting to redo the music, then they were considering a theatrical run after Mononoke, then Mononoke bombed at the box office, (...)
