"Matting" is the omission of original video information.  In the case of 
Hurricane Live, the original video that appered in BGC 1 is complete in the
4:5 aspect ratio.  The music video was cropped from the original to produce
a wider picture (the top and bottom were covered).  Sometimes directors 
"frame" the video for a wide aspect ratio and film it in the 4:5 format 
expecting it to be matted before release as was done in "Dick Tracy."  When
Dick Tracy was released on disc, the original 4:5 aspect ratio was retained
thus there was never a letterboxed edition.  "The Lost Boys," on the other
hand, was matted for release (probably because the information outside the
frame included mics or props).
..Getting back to BGC, I don't think the Hurricane sequence was intended
for matting.  Notice that in the matted version many lettered signs are cut 
off and Priss' head is obstructed on several occasions.  Looks like the 
matting was really done just for looks.

Do we really need to add a new FAQ entry every week?  I don't recall
seeing this question often, which doesn't qualify it as Frequent.


I did save Eric Kouba's response and if this question gets asked more
often, it will be added.

Yes!  That sounds much better than having 5 and 6 on separate discs.
The only problem I can forsee is that HL 2033 contains animation
footage from parts 5-7.  That would only be a problem if someone
happened to be watching BGC for the first time on AnimEigo's LDs.
Still, having 5 and 6 on the same LD is a higher priority.

Browsing through August Model Graphix, I found a page with latest
info on Gundam 0083 The Movie.

The movie will be 2 hours, including 10 minutes of *NEW* animation
sequence to make compiling 330+ minutes OAV series into a 2 hour
movie smoother. Although the movie will start from episode 1, the
movie will be centering on battles in the space. 

The Movie will feature a new OP song "True Shining" by Wada Rumiko,
and this song will be her debut single.

BTW, they were advising to check LD Vol.12 as well since the ending
in the movie will not be the "perfect" version. Geez, isn't Bandai so
smart? :-)

Okay, the River Oaks in Houston is showing Lensman Friday and Saturday at
midnight.  A buncha my friends want to go see it, ever since they saw
Castle of Cagliostro a couple of weeks ago and went bananas over it
<despite the cut-rate dubsubbing.>
 
The question is -- how good is Lensman?  It occurs to me there was some
furor over it some time ago, but I don't recall what about.  Is it
something to be seen i.e., there's nothing too horrible about it, is
there?  What are the character designs or animation or anything like?  I
told my friends I wasn't sure whether or not six bucks would be a good
investment in it, but I'm not sure.  Any quick responses, email or posted,
would be appreciated.  I think.  (:

unlikely that anyhigh quality tapes be used.  Also, Streamline seemed
to be covering the "general public's" market instead of the die-hard

The wrap is the 4-color printed insert that fits behind the clear

Normally names don't mean much, but there are times when the author
deliberately chooses a name for some reason and I think this is one
of those times.  As people have pointed out, "Larva" would be a referrence
to Roman mythology, especially in regards to "Lemures" from #3.  And
"Lover" would probably be intended as symbolic of the relationship
between Miyu (if I thought that was what the author intended which any
sensible human would realize is too insipid for a show as mindbendingly
cool as VPM 8-).

Info , please!

On page 112 of Anime-V 9/92, nother colorful looking show,(looks like
3x3 eyes, Ah My Goddess and Iczer-3 mixed together..It looks like a cool
anime to me..)

New Anime or Just re-print?
On page 114 of Anime-V 9/92, Angel Cop is mentioned...Is this new or
just reprints of thee first three OVA's?

ANimeEigo or other news??

Two Animes: Genesis Survivor Garaith and the Scramble Wars(a SD version of
all of GllForce, BGC/Cr!, and Garaith)..Are these to subbed by AnimeEigo
or other subbing company soon?

OK...That's all the anime I wnt to know about...I hope to spur some wanted
talk over the net, especilly about NEW stuff...Thanks, people.

Things To Question: "Is the manga/comic/magazine that you read printed on

The anime room at the San Diego Comic Con had a flyer announcing Expo
'93 scheduled for 2-4 July at the Oakland Convention Center (!).

With the most recent talk being about AnimeFest '93 at some other
hotel, is it safe to assume that Comic Con had old, dated flyers?
