I wouldn't worry, Evan.  Americans are usually at least a year behind
what's going on elsewhere in the world.  It takes time for American
marketing analysts to figure out how to push a product, develop tie-ins,
promote the sucker in a way that's "acceptable" to the American market.
Only then will the sheep who make up most of the American audience pay
attention.
