Howl's Moving Castle & FFVII: Advent Children at Otakuthon 2006

Montreal, Quebec, Canada (June 7, 2006) – Otakuthon, the first fan-run
anime convention hosted in Montreal, is proud to present two excellent
upcoming feature movies: Howl's Moving Castle® and Final Fantasy VII:
Advent Children®! Sponsored by fps Magaizne
(http://www.fpsmagazine.com/).

Howl's Moving Castle®

Directed by internationally acclaimed director Hayao Miyazaki (Spirited
Away®, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind®) Howl's Moving Castle ®
depicts
the journey of Sophie, an average teenage girl working in a hat shop,
when
she sets off on a fabulous journey to lift the curse set on her by the
vengeful Witch of the Waste with the help of the dashing and debonair
wizard Howl. Talking fire, spy dogs, scarecrows with turnip heads and
a
flying castle, oh my!

Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children®

Two years after the events played out in the popular roleplaying video
game Final Fantasy VII ®, Midgar still lies in ruins. Cloud has become
a
transporter and Tifa has converted 7th Heaven to an orphanage, but they
must soon take up the sword again as a mysterious illness is sweeping
the
land and the arrival of three men who are on a quest to seek out
Jenova.


Howl's Moving Castle® will be shown on Saturday June 10th at 12 noon,
and
Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children® will be shown on Sunday June 11th
at
1:20pm. Both movies will be shown in the main auditorium (H-110) in
