I was under the impression that teh Joker being named Jack Napier in the film
was in tribute to the late Alan Napier who portrayed Alfred Pennyworth in
the television series.

Adam West was the voice actor for Batman in many of the earlier cartoons
(Superfriends et al.) and Burt Ward (Robin from the show) has also done
the voice for animated Robins.

I don't know the exact interview you are talking about, but if it is anything
like the one's I saw I think he was being sarcastic.  When I saw him he acted
like he was going to cry and went on and on about how he wasn't asked to be
in the movie.  Although he may have liked to be in the movie, I got the
impression he was just kidding around about being SO upset.  Unfortunately
shows like "Current Affair" made his comments seem serious to have a more
interesting story ("Next: TV's Batman - His Dejection and Depression")

Well the 'Star Blazers' thing may be true I don't know, but Mark did have a
last name because he HAD A FATHER!  There were a few episodes where Mark's
father showed up, they'd fly their planes too close to a mountain range, and
then dad would disappear again.  I suppose Venture could be wrong but I got
it straight from an animation encyclopedia.

Not all of us; I consider myself a die-hard fan, and I actually enjoy 
Robotech.  What I don't enjoy are Carl Macek's feeble attempts to dub
anime in English.  That's probably why I enjoy the novels A LOT MORE than
the TV series.

That's easy.  It's because "Japanimation" sounds too much like "Jap" 
animation.  I'm sure that most people don't mean anything by it or even
notice it, but that doesn't excuse it, IMHO.  If you're going to discuss
Japanese Animation, why don't you just call it by its real name: "Anime"?

Song of the South is available on laserdisc in Japan.  There is a company that 
imports it.  The two soundtracks on the laserdisc are Japanese and English.
This is the only video version of Song of the South.  I beleive it retails for
$80.

I have the information somewhere, but am waiting to win the lottery.

Years after "Battle Of The Planets", for some reason, TNT <or maybe TBS,

adaptation of "Space Ninja Team Gatchaman" that went under the name
"G-Force" <The teams name from "BotP">. Although more serious in tone,
and blissfully free of the stupidity of 7-Zark-7/1-Rover-1, it was 
still a hack, and featured poor voice actors. The violence was still
missing, and the music was pretty bad too. This showed up for a little

viewing, anytime. Nice to see another attempt at bringing over
"Gatchaman", but still not great.

Subject: Animated Shakespeare on HBO
Organization: Columbia University Department of Computer Science
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 1992 15:48:27 GMT

Last night (11/10), HBO showed "A Midsummer Night's Dream,"
the first in a series of animated Shakespeare tales.  The
shows are at least partly intended to interest children
in Shakespeare.  This and the costs of animation have resulted
in 30 minute adaptations, with some narration to summarize
deleted parts, but the actual dialogue is taken from the
original language.

Some of the nice features are that the animation for the
series will be done by various Russian artists, and there
will be several forms of animation, including the fairly
standard form done last night, some claymation-like work,
and some process involving, to the best of my understanding,
the painting of glass (this last method is used for "Hamlet").
Also, Robin Williams introduces the shows and puts in
plenty of his usual zany humor.

I (and my mom) thought the story last night kept things
funny.  I didn't find the general look of the animation
that appealing, though I liked the way the characters were
drawn and some of the scenes (e.g., the mouth- and eye-shaped
plants and the scene done below the knees).  I've
heard this may be a weak link in the series, with
"Hamlet" supposedly being done very well.

Last night's show was at 7:30pm here in New York-- I'm
not sure if the show is to be run weekly or monthly.

     Overall, I really liked this show. While it was a little obvious
who the bad guy was once we knew how the bombings were taking place, the
rest of the show was great. The high points:

1) Alfred's "Popcorn, sir?" while Bruce watched the film. The perfect
butler strikes again.

2) The Bat-flamethrower. Think we'll see this again?

3) When Simon Trent was looking for the right show, he passed one
labeled "Spy Smasher". For those who haven't seen this, this was a
Republic movie serial from the 40's. Spy Smasher was this costumed
American who was fighting the Nazis before the US joined the war. It
featured plenty of great action scenes, a few real cliffhangers, and
unlike most serials it almost had a plot!

4) Finally, notice that when Bruce realized the Gray Ghost connection he
was dreaming about his father, and he woke up covered with sweat? I
wonder how often he dreams about his parents. Another nice touch to
enhance how obsessed with their death he is.

Godzilla came in the mid-seventies, from Hanna-Barbera.  In fact, one 
episode of it ("The Fire Bird") is floating around the video shops.  I
saw it over in Grand Rapids at Suncoast Motion Picture.  For awhile, a few
years back, Blockbuster was offering the "Godzilla collection," whatever
that was.

Nope. Elfman did the opening music. The regular episode music is
done by someone else. His name is listed after Elfman's in the

There's no way of knowing for sure, I think.  "Anime" (with an acute accent
on the e) is the past tense or adjectival form of the French word for
"animate".  However, I think "anime" is just an abbreviated form of the
word "animation" (which is also used in Japan - check the credits to
just about any anime).

Sure.  Appropriated words from other languages occasionally lose their original
meaning, or gain extra ones.  Look at how many people use the fairly specific
word "harakiri" in place of "suicide", or (as someone else pointed out)
"bande dessinee" to mean "French comic".

Um -- close.  Mark was just "Mark" (as far I can tell, none of the

the spaceship Yamato/Argo from Star Blazers (which was a much better

Okay, time to define terms.
     Anime (American English): Term for animation produced in Japan or 
influenced heavily by Japanese animation.
     Anime (Japanese):  Term for any animation.

This is similar to the MUD-as-any-kind-of-telnet-game and the very specific 
MUD-as-opposed-to-MUSE/MUSH/etc.
     When non-Japanese types say anime, they mean Japanese stuff.  Simple as 
that.  Just because the original term didn't distinguish types or origin 
doesn't mean the derived word can't.  Americans, like any other group that 
adopts words from other languages, is not required to keep the original meaning
intact.  Just look at champagne.
