Well, I think that the people who did the technical consulting for WoH
dit do their homework.  I just reviewed the script, and they clearly
mention in the scene notes that 4 boosters separate from the first stage
before it disengages, and slightly earlier than that, there is also mention 
of filling the blast deflectors under the pad with water, so there are two
mechanisms which could produce smoke there. 

I also recall hearing from a knowledgeable source when I first saw the movie
that the technical staff spent six months or so studying old NASA data and 
footage of launches.

Becuase as he said, in his own mind and opinion, nothing is wrong with
them (dubs), and as long as HE'S satisfied with it, he doesn't care what
ANYONE thinks of it, fans or otherwise.  In his words, "You might find this
to be a shock, but I don't really care what anybody thinks about the product
, I don't care what you think about it, I don't care what John (O'Donnell) 
or Robert or anybody thinks about it because I am satisfied in the 
aesthetics that I am working under.  I am an artist whether you care or 
believe it or not and I am doing something that pleases me aesthetically.
And I work very hard to do this, and I don't do it casually , and I don't
do it in a way that I'm going to just try and fluff off stuff or pawn 
something off on the fans inferiorly. I try to do something that I think is
superior. If you don't like it, I'm sorry, I'm trying to satisfy everybody
and that's the bottom line, I'm trying to do the best that is possible,
and when you see the other products, in about six months from now when you see 
Dominion or whenever it comes out and you see the other things, then you
come back and look at what I'm doing and you're going to find out that
it's not so bad...."

No, no, I mean clinically. My Psych 002 is a bit rusty, but as I remember it,
paranoia includes the rabid renunciation of all outside authority and opinion,
i.e., the rest of the world thinks that I'm *mad*, and refuses to see the truth
of my discoveries that, say, space aliens shot Kennedy from the Grassy Knoll.
I was particularly disturbed by the pattern of speech that was coming from some
recent quotes, that he doesn't care what fans think, what *anybody* thinks,
he's an *artiste*!

In short, even if a paranoid *does* have people conspiring against him, he is,
still, nonetheless, paranoid.

And incidentally, sending critical mail is not illegal, as someone else said.
However, sending lots and lots of critical mail with the intent to disturb
someone's mental stability is. Please, please don't do so. Don't mind me,
it's just the ravings of an Eternal Fool.

I don't actually collect posters myself (the only one I have is the
"Kabuto" poster given out at Anime Expo), but to provide a data point,
Nikaku sells many many anime posters for $8.50 each.  This does not
include shipping.

This is actually pretty competitive with the prices for non-anime
posters that I've seen (ranging from $5.00 to $10.00).

One of our members demoed it at a Rutgers Anime meeting a few weeks
ago.  Unlike the UY or Ranma or Gunbuster games, you need to know
Japanese to actually make sense of the game.  It's also a Hu-Card game
(TG16 users just need an adapter, no CD Rom/Duo required) which means
we don't get the actual music or voices.  I would get it (being a big
MI fan) but if you don't know Japanese, you won't get much mileage
playing the game.

While it is true that the NeoGeo is the most sophisticated home
video game system, with almost unmatched graphics, it is also
themost expensive system, at around $600, and games that cost
around $200.

I think it is pretty unlikely that there will be an anime-based
game for the NewGeo, but I guess if someone does one, the otaku out
there would get it.
