Looks like making the film version of that story was a fucking nightmare.
At least the English version had Mickey Rooney in his natural element of playing a Japanese...

Ok, I'll admit I had no idea about this anime before today (I actively ignore all anime and Jpop crap), but now I want to see it in English, which should help remove the taint of Japanese done to Winsor McCay's original.

imdb.com | Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland (1989)
...Production began in 1982, with the intention of the film being a big-budget showcase of Tokyo Movie Shinsha Co.'s animation style to American audiences. The efforts to make it a movie that would appeal to both Japanese and American audiences resulted in the film having a long and troubled production history, as different arms of production (writing, casting, animation, etc) received conflicting instructions as to how to proceed with the film. Over the course of seven years, numerous powerful figures from both Japanese and American film making were hired in various attempts to salvage production. Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata worked for a year, between 1982-1983, but ultimately left do to creative differences with the American production company; Miyazaki later called it "the worst experience" of his career. George Lucas, Christopher Columbus were each brought on board at different points to act as directors/producers/writers, and Ray Bradbury was hired to write a new script. It is unknown how much each contributed to the final product. Although the film premiered in Japan in 1989, it did not receive its intended American release until 1992, a full decade after the start of production...
