	Yep, I've heard that Disney has already commissioned Pixar
(they did the BatB stuff) to produce a full length feature.  Anyone
know about possible plot/theme for said film?

Well, perfectly concerned about bootlegged copies of
Bubble Gum Crisis & Dominion & Gunbusters but there
is no difference between the Version ordered from
Styx, Second Genesis. 
 
For example, Gunbusters has colour covers with plastic
box, proper labels with the holographic sticker.
 
After all, this is the same guys you order your 
comics from for your store anyway.  It isn't surprising
after all since most comic stores want to try to
sell stuff at 100 points anyway.    That is the 
about the average mark up in Canada anyway so it
doesn't surprise me much.

Hi there,

  There will be a Live-action film based on Guyver.  There was a picture of
it in some horror-movie magazine (Gorezine or some other such thing)...
Mark Hamil (Luke of Star Wars) will be in the movie!  I don't know if it
will come out in North America though?

Hello to all anime fans and to Macross fans in particular.  

A couple of days ago, I posted a notice about my having a couple of Macross
books for sale.  Well, they're sold now, and I just want to say thanx to those
who were interested and responded.  Boy, was I ever wrong when I said that I
didn't think that I would get many inquiries.  Over the course of 48 hours, I
was surprised to get 8 responses, and that's plenty enough.

I think I will now return to my place under the proverbial rock and savor my
Macross collection.  Well, before I shutup and quit wasting bandwidth, I wanna
mention that so far, I have not encountered anyone, in the U.S. at least, who 
has as extensive a collection of Macross stuff as I do. This is NOT any bragging
on my part - I just wish that I knew someone with a larger collection than mine
so I could get help filling in the "blank spaces" in mine.  I figure there's 
just got to be someone out there who has got more Macross stuff than yours
truly.

This is a figurative message in a bottle.  Any responses are welcome (but please
don't flame me just because I like Macross and nothing else as far as anime 
goes - "A man's got to know his limitations.")

Thanx for your time and attention.

True.
However, it would be spelled "Minmei" in katakana or hiragana. Not
that this is really relevant or anything (since she signs her name

Gundam 0083 Volume 9 (episode 8)
Solomon no Akumu ("The Nightmare of Solomon")

This is perhaps the *best* episode of the entire series so far.  Jeff
Okamoto once wrote that Gato had done very little except preach Jion
philosophy.  I agree, but in this episode Gato takes the Unit 2 into
combat and shows why he was (and still is) "The Nightmare of Solomon."

The animation is exceptional, but the story is even better!  There's
even a Zeta Gundam character with a speaking part.  

This may be blasphemy, but with this episode, I think Gato has exceeded
in Char in terms of coolness. ^_^

Anyone else notice that Nina Purpleton codes in C using a line-oriented

engineers are working overtime to fix Kou's Gundam.)

Unfortunately, it's a dialect of C with "far" pointers.  Yes, folks, it 
looks like the 80?86 processor family also made it to the year UC 0083 .. 
:-P  Now that I think about it, this brings new meaning to the trademark

I agree that that was probably the intention, but come on -- either
the series was trying to be a parody, in which case a "legendary
feel" is silly, or it was trying to be serious, in which case the 
Gunbuster is silly. But that's just MHO. I have to say, though, that
I felt dissatisfied that they never really FOUGHT the aliens. The
ships would blaze away with no visible effect, then the Gunbuster
would show up and trash everybody before you could get a good look.
There needed to be more real combat, I thought (and less TALKING
about the combat and its meaning in human history, etc.). IMHO

    Hi folks! I'm new in this group and I've been reading hundreds of posts, 
but I'm still confused. I love animation and I've been trying to get into 
anime, but the majority of the time I don't understand what the conversations 
are about. Can anybody help or just tell me how I can get started. Anime is 
not that readily found in just regular stores. The only things that I can get 
my hands on are only a few popular titles like Appleseed, Dirty Pair & Akira. 
I want to be able to find more anime. I guess if anyone could tell me how I 
could get comics, books, or movies at a reasonable price that would greatly 
be appreciated. A reliable place would be nice also. Is this how I should get

recorded fine (I bought them throught the military Base Exchange (like
a small department store)) - I've got a lot of anime recorded off the
air that came out beautifully.  RE: the camcorder coming from Australia --
Isn't Australia under the PAL system whereas the  U.S. and Japan fall under
the NTSC standard.  Tapes recorded on PAL and NTSC VCRs are NOT compatible.
Since Japan and the U.S have the same standards, there should be no
problem.  Rented anime tapes worked fine in my VCRs too.

Gee, I thought she died due to some lung cancer/disease.  Which is why in

   This is for everyone that had been talking about the Adam Warren Dirty Pair
sketches.
   Yes, Adam sells commissioned DP pencil sketches for $40 each.  No, he does
not want people making copies for the sketches for other people (but who's
going to stop us? ;)  Yes, he was selling these at the last AnimeCon.  He will
be at the upcoming San Diego Comics Con, where he will have a tables to sell
more sketches.
   Adam will take commissions through the mail.
   You can send me e-mail, and I'll give you more info on getting the sketches
via snail-mail from Adam.

   Also, Adam really loves getting comments from people concerning his version
of the DP (good and bad criticism.)  He never really got feedback from his
readers from Dark Horse.  The only reader comments he saw were the ones
specifically marked to his attention.

It's Ralph Bashki's newest release. A summary was posted a while ago in either
arts.movies or arts.animation. From what I've read it sounds like a typical
Bashki film.

Greetings to anime fandom from a humble "Macross otaku."  Actually, it would
be pretty appropiate to just call me a plain old Macross/Misa Hayase fanatic.
Sorry, enough about me....I just want to mention that I have a couple of old
Macross books for sale:

"Best Hit Series" Macross Graffiti (my spelling of the title may be a little
   off but oh well)

"Best Hit Series" Flashback 2012

Both books are in near mint/very good condition.  I'm asking for $10 for each,
shipping/mailing costs included.  I honestly don't think that I will get many
inquiries, but if interested or have questions, please just respond via e-mail
(awf21201@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu).  Just so that the uninformed will know, both books
are in Japanese text, but fortunately for those who are not familiar with the
language, there are _lots_ of graphics/pictures/etc. in both books which are 
about 100 pages or so each.

Thanx for your time and attention.

I did, Michael.  I first had to uudecode it.  You must remember to rename
the file"kahm03.uue" before giving the uudecode command or uudecode
won't create "kahn03.jpg".  Then I used a shareware jpg to gif converter,
and found out that I had to have 1.6 megabytes free on my hard drive in
order for this cnverter to do it's job.  It converted kahm03.jpg, a 68K
file into kahm03.gif, a 247K file!  Now I see why it wasn't posted as a 
gif.  Using Cshow (my gif viewer) I had no problem viewing and printing
it out.  What was kahm03?  A scan from the cover of one of the Kitchen
Sink "Otlanders" book.  

So in summary here's what you do:

1.  Save the message as "kahm03.uue"
2.  With a text editor delete all lines before "begin", and all lines
    after "end".
3.  Then using the uudecode utility, "uudecode kahm03.uue".  Uudecode
    should produce kahm03.jpg and will also leave you your copy of
    kahm03.uue
4.  In my case "jpg2gif kahm03.jpg" and 1.6 megs of drive space was
    enough to produce kahm03.gif ready for viewing.

Forgive me if you know most of this, it's also for the benefit of others
who might want to know.
