various awards

Miyazaki's "Howl's Moving Castle" took the Osella d'Oro at the Venice Film Festival last weekend. From what I can tell it's one of the top awards for technical achievement. (HMC missed out on the top festival award, the Golden Lion, which went to a live-action film. Cretin judges.) Also appearing at the Venice Film Festival was Steamboy and something from the Final Fantasy franchise.

And at the Creative Arts/Technical Emmys the other night, Cartoon Network took the animation top honors with "Samurai Jack: The Birth of Evil," (For Programming Less Than One Hour), and "Star Wars: Clone Wars," perplexingly in the category of Programming One Hour or More - I guess they must have submitted all 20+ mini-episodes as a single block.
