Hmmm.... would a UY disc be released by Image or AnimEigo?  $39.95 vs. $64.95?
I wasn't too impressed with the pressing job that 3M did with the VPM disc...
(the alternative would be to blame AnimEigo for the quality probs... :)  )
 
But dubbing UY2...<blech!>.  And there's the statement by the "God-in-chief",
Rob W. that they wouldn't dub before it was time...<Orsen Wells pun..sorry>...
and where could they find a voice to do Lum, which is already perfect IMHO...?

I can't agree more.  I absolutely loved the tv-episodes and thought they
were wonderful.  I still like the ending of Movie-I though, since, as their
commercials claimed back when they were advertising it, "the ending will
surprise you" (I think that was the translation, it's been what - almost
6 years now?)  If you haven't seen the first movie, see it - it's great
and I think has a "good" and "moving" ending ('kando shita' might be
a bit strong, but appropriate I think...we cried when we saw it *sniff*.)

>I try to keep the "good" dialogue.  Since I can't write well enough to
> describe it, it's much easier to just translate those parts..

And for those of us who watched and remember the show, it's also nice
since it's easier to remember dialogue (if it was an especially good one,
given enough context of course) than simple synopsis.

I too, would like to get them on tape (since we'll most likely never see them
on laser disc).  I did mention this a few months ago, and a person from France
(who can respond if he so feels) was extremely kind enough to offer to supply
Season 2+.  Unfortunately they're in SECAM and in French (the former some kind
of signal thingy and the latter a language I have no clue in) so I had to
turn him down.  If anyone might have these in "normal" format (ie: American)
in Japanese I'd greatly appreciate hearing from you, as I'm sure, will others.

Incidentally, where are you getting your episodes from?  Touch isn't still
being published in Japan, is it?  And it's certainly not being run on tv
as a rerun, I'm sure.  Do you just have lots of old issues of Touch-manga?
How close is the manga to the tv show (I never read manga).

The way I see it is this:
- There is already a huge library of titles available for LD.  I hypothesize
  at lest 10 years before we get anything more than an insignificant fraction
  of it available on an HDTV format, and at a price accesible to common
  mortals.

- More than likely the new sets will be able to play NTSC signals, so you'll
  still be able to play your existing video tapes, LDs, and NTSC TV
  broadcasts.

Psychopaths and murderers? While this can be said of some of the Romanovs,
this is certainly not true for the majority. Alexander II who abolished
slavery comes to mind immediately.

Most definitely not correct.

On a lighter note: if the blood relation is true, Nene could be a carrier for
the hemophilia gene, which means that her male offspring might be
hemophiliacs.

Er..."lighter"?

  Okay, now, copies of these showed up at a local con a few weeks ago,
and I and a friend went home with them after dickering with the huckster
for a bit (and refusing to pay the outrageous markup).
  According to hearsay from the dealer, Yuri's pistol (which I got)
appeared briefly as a Romulan disruptor--the fellow was hiding it under
his jacket, and it doesn't get much screen time.  Coincidentally, the
day after the con the ST:TNG rerun did feature an armed Romulan, and
while the weapon was different, it was similar enough to establish a
consistant Romulan pistol style.  Kei's carbine (which DJ got) reportedly
appeared as a Federation weapon.  Unfortunately, I don't know the episode
titles for either of these, since I have not seen them myself.
  (By interesting coincidence, DJ has short red hair and I have long dark
hair.  Neither of us is beautiful, 19, or female, though--sorry!  :-)
  The props themselves are resin and more detailed than strictly necessary
for television--many ST:TNG props look terrible in real life, whereas if
painted these would look quite real from a yard or two.  The balance is
good on the pistol, but muzzle heavy on the carbine when used one-handed;
it's fine if you regard it as a small SMG rather than a large pistol (it
has what appear to be ambidexterous safeties conveniently placed for the
off-hand fingers).  One doesn't expect good ergonomics on props, but I
could imagine using weapons like these; the grips are a bit small (my
hands are no doubt larger than the Pair's), and Yuri's pistol has no sights
(an original design problem), but against the problems of using a ST:TNG
hand phaser, who'd notice?  Having single framed through parts of Project Eden
after getting home, I'd say that Rick Sternback & company did a very good
recreation job, too.

What I didn't like about the Touch movies was that they changed

My sources say thet Revell made models based on the Dougram series

It seems that another borrower of anime mecha, F*A *tech, worked

Where can you buy it? I saw it in 1980 and don't remember how it looked like.

It stayed true to Andersen's tale (unlike Disney). No happy ending for this

The difference is , all the Disney and WB shorts were PRE-RECORDED, so there
aren't any limits on the acting, timing or otherwise, the actors SET the
timing.  They are ACTING, not VOICE-ATING. Of anime, only Akira has been
pre-recorded.  And as for Mel Blanc, although he did all those voices, you
can tell it was him who did all  those voices, besides, since when do 
you compare cartoons (comedic 7min shorts) to "animation" 8-)

12th street Oakland train station as much as possible, even though the Mac  
Arthur would be freezing in the winter.  The reason why was because the  
12th street Oakland BART station would be full of everything you could  
imagine.  If these people had to pay to get in, what about the trash on  
the out side that could not afford to get in?  Then again, I kinda was in  
uniform and you do get harassed, especially since we were getting ready to  
fight a war at the time.
	I also had to attend an interview for ROTC near that station  
(about June 1990) and it was pushing 7pm when I left.  I bought a Kevlar  
vest shortly after.  Besides, it made great insulation under that  
polyester.... did I tell how cold it was? in the winter?
	Call me paranoid, call me strange,  I want to live (really, I do).   
Then again, this is coming from a guy that was also working, at that time,  
in Candelstick Park.:)
