Is 35 shots available legally anywhere in the US? Or is it still just theaters?

I loved all the Almodovars I've seen, but BE has received such lackluster reviews I haven't been as intrigued as I should be, I guess. And Ponyo, well, let's just say that I don't understand why everyone loves Spirited Away so much; it's the only Miyazaki I've seen. I'm ready to be convinced about how wrong and ignorant I am though. :)

What does everyone have against Precious? I promise it's worth watching.

It's not terrible but not great imo.
