Yeah, this is a cool film.  I've seen the subtitled version, and they call
each other Mickey Mouse and Dumbo around the middle of the film because
they're trying not to alarm "Jenny" (I think that was her name), the blind
girl, and say that those are their nicknames for each other (they're
pretending to be friends.)  I found it pretty funny that they were still
using their made-up code names when they were fighting it out towards the
end.  It put just the right bizarro spin on the whole thing.

Date: 28 Aug 1992 19:12:04 GMT
Organization: LESC

OK, I've read all the FAQ lists, and I've shopped around the
catalogs and local (Houston) anime stores, and I just want to know
why the prices for anime are so high. Does this represent the 
legitimate cost of manufacturing and distribution, or is somebody 
getting REALLY rich from the stuff? If the latter, do they deserve 
to, and why do the fans tolerate it? I realize that this is an art
form, and that it's superior to 99% of the animation we see in the
US, but does that in any way justify the prices? Hey, Kurosawa's 
stuff is cheaper, and that's some of the most artistic mass-media
entertainment ever created.

I don't want to start a flame war with my very first post, but I've
watched the videotape of MADOX-01, and IMHO, it isn't worth anywhere 
near that $50 suggested retail price. Please help me to understand 
this issue.

I saw a reproduction of "The Hunto for Blue Water" in a recent issue
of "The Rose" (Anime Hasshin's newsletter).  I dunno if Lorraine was
the one who got it (doubtful as I don't think she went to the Expo) or
someone else submitted it.

Yup, it was RAI.

Marco and Gi Pagot were credited for Original Concept and Character Design.

Yup!  "Marco Pagot" was, of course, Porco Rosso's real name.

 Well actual the whole idea of synopsizing seems like a great step
BACKWARDS to me, why?...

1) You say that Scripts are hard to come by, but that synopsis are
available to anyone on Internet... Hello, McFly! Via Internet you can
get MANY, MANY Scripts from various FTP sites (no FTP? just uset
BITFTP!) in much the same way you can get the synopsis.

2) You compare this to early silent films... Well you wonder why
they don't title foreign films that way anymore? Well it's because
subtitles don't interupt the flow and can now be done!

3) You say that anyone with a simple Amiga and a piece of software can do
this instead of the few with the equipment need to subtitle....
Sorry to be the one to break the news fellow, but what do you think most
people are using to subtitle? An Amiga, Turbotitle software (Sharware!),
and a genlock (if you are REAL cheap you can get one for $80)

4) I think most people whould rather watch a film evolve than have it explained
to them, it seems that the onlything this process does is give the lazy
would be subtitler an easy way to try an impress people.

I think the small advantage of CAV (being able to do a freeze-frame

can do) isn't worth the annoyance of breaking up the episodes.

I suppose net distribution might be suitable for some sorts of work but
for painting distributing a reproduction just doesn't--and ought not to--
count as distributing one's artwork.  You loose scale, you loose texture
and, of course, you loose the color.  Even a color scan--just not
available for most folks--is not going to provide faithful color.  So
what's lost is most of what makes painting interesting in the first
place.
