I have seen this movie.  It is well done, with realitivly good special f/x.  
So what if Mark Hamil's gotten old and fat? :)

I saw it under the title of 'Mutronix' which is how the 1-2 35mm prints that

The British dub of FAMOUS DETECTIVE HOLMES (a.k.a. SHERLOCK HOUND).

Closest thing to perfect I've ever seen.  I don't know the original voices,
but these voices matched the characters to a T, and didn't grate on the
ears like other dubs do.  Besides, the episodes I saw were directed by
Hayao Miyazaki, which is always a plus... :-)

Made in South Australia (Adelaide studios, I believe, some scenery was
taken from the ranges around Adelaide).

The sad thing is that with only three commercial networks, and none of
them willing to take the chance, we'll likely never see it in the
country it was made in. <sigh>

Since we're all on the rumor mill right now, I'd also like to know
if there is any truth to this:
	While attending SDCC, I had a chance to talk to one of the
USR reps about whether or not they were going to release or actually
re-release any of their old titles(ie. Gunbuster, M-66) on LD. And
guess what they said? They said something like "Yeah, we plan to
have LD releases in about a year or so" Seeing that their voices
didn't really convey any truth or validity, I just thanked them and
went about my business. Does anybody know if they are seriously
planning this. The reps didn't sound too, shall we say, bright.

    Never heard of it.  Was it trashy/sleazy?  Most American animation I've

    And the characters are drawn very cartoony and silly.  Okay, you may
    have me on this one, but I can't be that impressed when the ads I've
    seen indicate that the art that is being animated is very unsophisticated,
    thus easier to animate than the worlds you see in anime.

    Is a cute bunny, has live-action, and fails to be G, not through

    HEAVY METAL is more of the near-porn I'm talking about.  Still, it

    It's British.

Sure there is, but you can wear yourself out finding it over here and
most of it is fairly old, again, unless you like the cute Disney musicals.

Organization: University Of Kentucky, Dept. of Math Sciences

   Please, please.. No moans or groans about this (since it IS a Streamline
production.. hey, it's not *MY* fault! :). I would just like to post about
it. 
   Today I went to the local "arts" theater to watch "Lensman." It was a
charming little story, where the plot didn't seem to be the point. Had a 
lot of action and some comedy in it. I believe it was made in 1989. Has some
decently integrated computer graphics in it too, which provide a little
character. 
   As I said, what I saw *IS* by Streamline, and it's dubbed, but the songs
are still in Japanese (some of them, but the one that wasn't must have been
made that way in the first place). It was about an hour and 45 minutes, so
there was quite a bit of footage for an animated film.. Didn't really look
hacked. The animation wasn't that great, but certain scenes and phrases
in the dialog kind of made up for it.
   Well, I'm not out to give a review, but I was curious.. Anyone else around
here ever seen this? Does my rehash of it sound true to the original, or
is this another hack-and-slash production?
   Oh, and one off-topic question. :) Could anyone comment on how much 
Japanese animation makes it way to the US in such forms? I don't mean Japanese
animators working on US productions, but true Japanese productions.. Just
something I was thinking about that hooks in with a subquestion: Is all this
stuff on videotape/laserdisc or just film (or both)?
   Many thanks..

Summary: If _I_ could produce anime, I would make:
Date: 20 Aug 92 04:03:03 GMT
Organization: The University of Texas at Austin, Austin TX


  Some things I would like to see made as anime:
  
  - Greg Bear's _Infinity Concerto_ and _The Serpent Mage_
      definetly a Miyazaki candidate.

  - Greg Bear's _The Forge of God_ (this still scares me)
      an end-of-the-world story, perfect for Otomo.

  - Orson Scott Card's _Ender's Game_ 
      maybe another Miyazaki, or Otomo.  
      _Speaker for the Dead_ might be good too.

  - Raymond Feist's _Riftwar Saga_ (_Magician_, _Silverthorn_, and _A
     Darkness at Sethanon_.  In paperback, _Magician_ was split into
     _Magician:Apprentice_ and _Magician:Master_)
      this would make a good follow-up to Lodoss

  - Stephen Brust's _Jhereg_, _Teckla_, _Yendl_, _Phoenix_, and I can't 
     remember the name of the other one (and I'm sure I've spelled all
     the names wrong too)
      This would be a nice compliment to Lupin III

  - Robert Asprin's _Myth_ series (_Another Fine Myth_, _Mything Persons_,
     and the rest are mything from my brain)
      another good Lupin III-ish one.

  - Gene Wolfe's _Urth of the New Sun_ saga (_Shadow of the Torturer_,
     _Citadel of the Autuarch_, _Claw of the Conciliator_, _Sword of 
     the Lictor_, and _The Urth of the New Sun_)(Yes, I spelled some of
     these wrong too)
      This is a bit dark for Miyazaki, but I might give it to the Vampire
      Miyu team.  It needs an 'epic saga' feel.

  - Roger Zelazany's _Amber_ (I know someboby already suggested it, I want
     to show off my knowledge of the book titles and waste bandwidth)
     (_Nine Princes in Amber_, _The Guns of Avalon_, _The Hand of Oberon_,
     _The Sign of the Unicorn_, _The Courts of Chaos_, _The Trumps of Doom_,
     and of course I can't remember half of the titles)
      I think the Dilvish the Damned stories would be good too, and 
      _Eye of Cat_ if it was done right (read Miyazaki).  

And Finally:
 
  - J. R. R. Tolkien's _The Lord of the Rings_
     goddamnit, somebody needs to do this right! No, repeat _NO_ rotoscoping
     shall be allowed.  Miyazaki will be chained to a drafting table for
     3 years, 3 months and 3 days to complete this epic.

BTW, all of the above are recommended reading, as being some of the best 
fantasy/speculative fiction out there.
