It was a misinterpretation, Supergal belongs on the list, with UY2, coming
in November.  And the Advance Comics for November IS out, with Supergal, UY2,
and the AnimEigo "Just what IS this anime stuff anyway" ad as full page
ads in it.

Well, besides giving Monsha a chance to become a jerk once again, landing
the Core Fighter in reverse, makes it easy on Aubil when he steals it. ^_^

What's the deal with the artwork on KOR 2?

The front cover features an over-the-shoulder shot of Madoka from
"Hawaiian Suspense," wearing nothing but a towel and covering her
breast while the back is a pic of her from "White Lovers," unzipping
her ski suit with nothing underneath.  Shades of USMC marketing
technique?

As for the sidebar, isn't that from "Fish/Cat"?

Just some observations, I probably can't go next year anyway:
It's also at the end of the line for the San Jose light rail. Fairly easy
connections to the airport and Caltrain. There is a short bus ride from the
airport to the light rail stop. Being next to the light rail also makes it
possible to stay at other motels in the area.

Oh, COME ON!  Any ***REAL*** Robotech fan could tell you that it was 
MATCHBOX who was the toy company.  Not Mattel.
(Flame OFF)

One of the reasons, as given in ROBOTECH ART 3 for Matchbox's backing
out was that now the market was experiencing a flood of half-hour com-
mercials (G.I. JOE, HE-MAN, TRANSFORMERS, etc.), and Matchbox, whose
entire yearly budget was roughly equal to the amount of money a big 
company like Hasbro could afford to spend on the show alone, just couldn't
keep up.

Cool idea, although there are some problems:

-What criteria do we use?  Ryan Mathews suggested some, like technical
 expertise, how well the lyrics match up to the anime, etc. which sound
 good to me.  There might simply be judgement on how original or fun
 a video is.  Would people want seperate categories for, say, serious videos
 vs. parody/humorous ones?  Plus there's the minor problem of musical
 taste - it's hard to objectively rate a video if you love or hate the
 song used.

-Who do we get to judge them?  I think, in order to be fair, you should
 have a panel of judges (rather than one person) who rate each video in
 terms of whatever criteria is established and then average out the
 ratings.  Or maybe an Olympic style system, just give the video a rating
 from 1 to 10 and average them out.

-It's too bad that some people (not mentioning names of course 8-) who
 don't have more sophisticated equipment will be penalized in the technical
 categories.  No matter how imaginative you are, there's only so much you
 can do with two VCRs and a CD player!  Would we want to give consideration
 to the sort of equipment a person has at their disposal?  "Well, this video's
 timing isn't so great, but the guy only had a Radio Shack dubbing enhancer,
 how much can you expect?" vs. "This one's better than the last, but the
 video maker used a Max 5000 Deluxe Video Processing Station and Microwave
 Oven - he could've done much better with a little effort."

-It wouldn't be very practical to hand out prizes to video contributers
 who can't attend the con in the first place!  You gonna be willing to
 mail them out to such people?

Still, it oughta be interesting.  So, who's the organizer?  <grin>

Remember, Ako, Dominion , and Eternal Story were the only LD's  where the 
contracts were definite and info had been officially released.

All others are of course considered, but CPM has not given official confirmation
of additional LDs (though the chances of future lds is "very good", imho 8-)

What was said was that all the titles would come out subtitled, they'd take
the "hot titles" to look for on LD, then dub them.  I would care to guess
that Beautiful Dreamer might be one, though I would guess Supergal would
probably be one as well.

At a MacWorld Expo in Tokyo few months ago, a company called F2
gave a sneak preview of Patlabor Digital Trailer which was a
collection of catalogued QuickTime movies you can search using 
familiar Macintosh interface. (^_^) F2 is planning to release it
commercially, adding an Interactive Movie (Spaceship Warlock Type).
[NOTE: You'll need KanjiTalk to play this CD-ROM, as well as LC
II or better machine with at least 5 MB of RAM.]

Fore more details, read July issue of Animage and May issue of
Japanese Mac magazines (MacPower for example).

Considering that EVERYONE in Headgear and many other staffs of
Patlabor are devoted Macintosh otakus, it's not surprising to see a
CD-ROM Game devoted to Mac. (^_^)

Well, Matchbox was the toy sponsor, which probably also led to the projects
downfall , as Matchbox is a relative small-fry in terms of $$$ to spend, 
only about 1/10 the size of say, Hasbro.  The major reason after filtering
all the other reasons, IMHO, was the drop in the value of the dollar.  The
deal with the japanese studios was to be paid in yen and when the dollar
went down drastically, so went Matchbox's ability to pay the $$$ to continue
production (which is probably a good thing 8-).
