Hey Jimbo.
Most of Miyazaki's movies are available on DVD with subtitles and the original Japanese track. It is the only way I would really want to watch them. However, I must admit that the English dubs for his anime features are very top notch. Not just because they use big named and highly talented A list actors but because there is actual care in the process. The artistic integrity is maintained because the tone and feeling is on par with the original script. I do believe Miyazaki himself supervises the dubbing process.
Inglorious Basterds...I don't know if I could watch it a second time. Usually, one time is enough for his movies.
Cordially yours,
