I don't think anything in any "official" discussion at AX92 mentioned this,
but depending on the sales of MacII,Orguss,Guyver,Iczer1 , IMHO, they will
eventually go back to dub Gunbuster when it might be clear that they will
either have plenty video sales, or more product gets a possible shot at 
TV.

By the way, I DID think the USR Macross II sucked, but then again I thought
the Japanese MAcross II sucked, but the dub was worse because of the lack
of experienced voice acting. (Choices for character voices under age 30 I
pretty much had no problem with, even the sqeaky shojo pilot, which was 
just as annoyingly squeaky in the original)

My analogy to how the dubbing was is like to making a copy of a video, 
you will never make something as good as the original, there will always
be signal degredation, and depending on the equipment you have, and the 
quality of the source material, will depend how the copy will look.

Ryan Gavigan
gavigan@gn.ecn.purdue.edu

I do admit, however, that there is Definitely room for USR's actors to 
ipmrove as the dubbing continues, BUT ONLY if they are critiqued correctly
and ol' Bobby Napton goes at it right, which from the comments he made
at Sub vs Dub, doesn't look to good.  He quoted he wanted to give the actors
who played characters in different shows different vocal qualities and get
different vocal performances from the actors.  This is one point from which
I partially agree with Carl M.  Instead of artificially coaching actors to
a different vocal quality (see all the VERY badly done older chars in Macross
II), getting the similiar voice quality with different personality in the
ACTING, is much more preferrable, HOWEVER, I think this is the way to go
if you have a tremendous variety of actors, so you can have more than one
actor with a similiar voice, so mixing and matching parts in different films
becomes a lot more preferrable.

USR has a acting troupe of only 8-12 people for all of their stuff, and
theat poses a problem when it comes to minor characters, at least with Carl's
dubs, minor characters are voices where I generally have no problem with, 
when a lot of people have come in to do almost "cameo" performances, when
in USR's first attempts, it seems very clear that minor characters are 
done by the same group of actors as the major chars.

Greetings.  At the Expo, I ordered a tape from Seishun Shitematsu (sp) or,
"A couple of guys with a VCR".  They said they would have it to me
by the end of the month.  I have been planning to show a feature from the
tape at A.N.I.M.E. Foothill, which is this coming Sunday.  It's getting
down to the last week, and I'm worridly watching the mailbox.
  The question is, is there anyone here who can get ahold of these people
and ask if they have sent my tape off?
  If it does arrive late, I will understand, considering their order load
from the convention.

AHEM.   Harmony Gold liquidated their animation division, and in such, sold
Robotech, Windaria, Planetbusters, to Carl & Streamline Pictures.  Those

 were DragonBall and Minky Momo.

I vehemently disagree.  The best way to get someone interested in some medium
of expression (be it comics, books, anime, movies, etc.) is to ask them one
very simple question:
				"What do you like?"
And then arrange your viewing choices accordingly.

Some people like action, give them RIDING BEAN and SUPERNATURAL BEAST CITY.
Some people like romantic comedy, give them some MAISSON IKKOKU episodes.
Some people like space epic, give them LEGEND OF THE GALACTIC HEROES or
	some choice GUNDAM (but for crying out loud, stay away from LENSMAN!!).
Some people like Babe Fu and Weird-sex Fu (to paraphrase Joe Bob Briggs),
	give them a CREAM LEMON or three.  (Hey, whatever works...)
Some people like feelgood movies, drop Miyazaki on them.
Some people like intelligent films, give them WINGS OF HONNEAMISE and
	OMOHIDE POROPORO.
Some people like "head films", give them MANIE MANIE and ANGEL'S EGG.  :-)
And so on...

One of the things I like about anime is its variety.  Show it to them!

Howdy.  A few of us muckers are anime fans and I notice a steady increase in
them.  However, some of us anime fans would like to see an entire MUCK
dedicated to anime fans instead of a section of a muck on several mucks.  There
is just ONE problem.  Most of the sites are taken up by MUSEs, MUSHs, MUDs and
MUCKs and there is no more room for poor little us.  I've seen Pern ones,
Furry ones, Star Trek ones, And off the wall ones, but not one for just us
poor Anime fans.  So this little group of Anime fans hope there are some of
you Anime fans who would like to be an Anime character on a muck that is for
Anime Fans.  And like other mucks, I am sure we will let people outside the
genre to come in to take a sample of it to insure things like AnimeCon and
AnimeExpo.  But most of all, we need your help!  If you know of a site that
will allow a MUCK, please send mail to the following people:

The character designer was Kenichi Sonoda; I believe it was one of his

Well, the sequence of events in the original novels are so out of
place, compared to the video. Or maybe the events in the video are out
of place.  In any case, the three novels should cover the original
Gundam TV series or the three Gundam movies that were based on the TV
series.

For all you people out their saying Let have it on the East Coast or
Have both of the 6 Months Apart here is some information.

A) Reason it is difficult to have Both.
	1) Their are currently 7 SciFi/Comic/Anime Conventions
	   in this area. They are 
		SiliCon
		BayCon
		AnimeCon/Expo (whichever whenever)
	    	Confused "was TimeCon"
		UniCon
		WonderCon
		(Next Year) WorldCon 
		
	   Almost Everyone of them already has a major weekend
	   and for other times we have regional Cons like
	
		WesternCon
		and San Diego ComiCon

	   As Was mentioned Spring Break Is Dead
	   In the Winter there is the Winter Break 
	   and then their is President's Weekend and
	   there you have just locked all major long weekends
	   that most people in the United States can Travel.

B) Why it would be difficult to hold on East Coast.

	   The main people who organize the Conventions are on the West Coast!!!

	   Instead of GoHs we would be flying Key organizers to East Coast to 
	   Run the Convention. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
	   So unless one of the Conventions Mentioned above dies. And I doubt 
    	   that. Then Someone will have to make a Compromise. I am not saying
           who is right or what the terms, but they can't keep on talking on the
	   net and passing messages and expect to get stuff done. They have
	   to sit down at a table and talk. And the net fulling this IMHO is
	   just encouraging the attempts to trash each other. I am concerned
	   about this fight because I as many others over here know what will
	   happen if something is not done to stop these Runaway EGOs. Both Cons
	   will suffer. And I do not want to have to choose sides because both
	   sides I know and consider friends. So while the nets opinion is
	   both valued and respected. I think this topic of who is who and what

	   decides what is truly happening. Cause I do not want to be pulled
	   into a fight of friends.
