   Well...There is someone who does alot of subs (poorly) and gets alot of
flack for it. Hmmmm can't saY who it is....but hey at least he doesn't charge
for it...well not too much eh?

Streamline has done at least one sub job which as far as I know has been
recieved with little or no controversy. Twighlight of the Cockroaches!
Can anyone vouch for the quality of the translation?

***SPOILERS!***










I was talking to Rick Alonso (Anime King, for anyone interested in great cels)
after his Japan trip a few weeks back, and he told me something whih I just 
cannot figure out. 

Apparently, many Japanese fans
speculated on Gato's death.  Bandai was silent, Rick told me, about the 
characters in the upcomming TV series, only mentioning that the 0083 characters
might still be around.  Prompted by this, several friends and I popped in
V12 and watched Delaz fleet's last stand against the Feds.  When could he have
escaped?  Or could he have possibly survived the explosion?  The Neue Ziel
blew up before the Feddie ship did, which rules out the cockpit being cast off
by the explosion of the ship.  The Neue Ziel also course compensated for a hit
during it's suicide ram, making the likeliness of autopilot pretty minimal.
Also, it seemed to me that Gato had honor at stake here, and to eject would
simply put him in the hands of the Feddies.  Any ideas on how Bandai can pull
this rabbit out of a hat?  (I mean, Bandai has pulled Yamatos before, but this
would be pretty wierd...)

I know of no Cyberpunk anime in the classic Gibson sense of the word,
or even Williamsons's works.  The Silent Mobius manga part III does
have classic cyberspace visuals, so if this influences a future movie
it would be the most likely bet.  I agree, it would be fun, but it
would also be a bit hard to do without lots of explanation, and anime
seems more oriented to conversation than an "omniverous narrator"
explaining everything.

Well, there's a simple and effective way to avoid this problem:
Don't purchase anything from Streamline/Macek!  (I'm serious.)
It's safe to say that you can EXPECT that kind of quality from
him, considering his attitude towards the entire issue.  Even though
his releases are cheaper (in more ways than one) than, say, Animeigo
or USMC, he's chopping it up.  Also, since he would also have the
*&*$% rights to the thing, nobody else would be able to get the
rights, unless they co'ed with Macek I suppose.  If people would
just remove Macek from their minds, boycott him or something, maybe
he'll shrivel up and blow away.  There's little sense in purchasing
something by him and then moaning over it when it's common knowledge
now, that he messes up everything he dubs.  (He earned this rep himself...)
 
BOYCOTT MACEK!  (Argh, I hate being reminded of him...)

Other things to bring besides LOTS of tissues: Rolaids or something else
for the stomach pains (God!  *My* stomach was in knots by the mid-way mark)
and someone to hold.

Romantics beware!  This movie is aimed at killing you!

A lot of people said that it didn't bother them, but it really messed with *my*
emotions.  I haven't been able to watch KOR since (except when the anime club
shows it without telling me first :)

Heart wrenchingness aside, it IS a good movie, and well worth seeing.

(every thing that at least some like get "offed" in it.)

Thought the 12th day is pretty much universally true:

12 Mutilated Maceks  (May he rest in pieces)

Plus maybe the seven strangled C-kos and the Six Guillotined Minmays 
wouldn't cause much flak, but the others....

It's all a matter of licensing.  Before Animego got the license for all for UY,
U.S.Manga Corp bought the license to just UY Movie #2 -DB.  In order that
Animego could sell a complete set they paided U.S.Manga Corp something and that
one movie became a joint release of both companies.  So it is subtitled by
USM, release by USM, but also sold to the Animego UY club members as part
of their subscriptions.  As for the release timing, USM just got done first.
So UY movie #1 is coming Real Soon Now :-) see previous posts from Animego
explaining the scheduling slips.

All of the above is deduced from second hand hearsay.

   The Guyver live action movie is funny.  I guess the filmmakers
couldn't put people in bad Halloween costumes and then produce a decent
drama/horror film.  The whole thing is fairly awful, although there is
a line in the end credits that's good for a laugh:
 
   "No Zoanoids were harmed in the making of this film."
