    Princess Principal Crown Handler 2-even watching it raw with no subs-this was exceptional. I could follow the plotline with no problem and it ends on a cliff hanger. Please don't tell me to use spoiler tags-cliff hanger doesn't really give any thing away.

    Favourite opening/ending sequences

    Aria The Crepuscolo-more of the same and that's excellent! It's even more laid back and mello than the tv shows (if that's possible).

    Anime Soundtracks: Best & Favu Composers... desu?

    Speaking of Yohko Kanno I ran into Cyber Bicci earlier this year and I like the album a lot. It's quite a bit different than what she usually does.

    Well, that's hinted in the current movie where Bond has been retired for a few years and the current 007 is a black women. So yes, it seems that 007 is a job title and anybody with the right qualifications could be inserted into that role-hence my original assertion, disavowing the name that is...

    I've been on a 50's sci fi movie trek lately. This Island Earth was my latest viewing, this is quite a good but under rated one from 1956. It has a lot of matte painted background art that's really good. Granted it looks and sounds a little hokey compared to modern day movies but for the time it...

    I don't think that's how it goes, the James Bond character is an idea-a concept that could be inserted into an infinite number of scenarios. The 60's version or the current version are variations on the theme but are different takes-the alternate universe (or parallel). A lot of movie franchises...

    Overseas The Discotek Media Thread (plus AnimEigo)

    If they're dubbing Gunbuster they might as well do Diebuster for good measure.

    Overseas The Discotek Media Thread (plus AnimEigo)

    Gun Buster getting dubbed? You gotta be s******g me-this series has been floating around for 25 years being released subbed only. Guess I'll have to break down and buy it. I still have my Bandai dvd and bluray discs.

    I kind of think that's how it was always intended to be-each version of Bond exists in their own parallel universe separate from the others. There's certainly no way Sean Connery's version of Bond could exist alongside Daniel Craig's version.

    Backing up a BD (technical question)

    When I rip a bluray I do use makemkv but when I'm ready to multiplex it I use mkvtoolnix. If you have pcm for an audio track Denons have a setting called multi channel in for that. I use a device called an Odroid N2+ running Coreelec to play back media off my hdds. Never use...

    Netflix's Live-Action Cowboy Bebop to Release This November

    It crashed and burned, huh? I'm not surprised-I tried to watch the 1st episode and stopped 7 minutes in and said that's enough of this ****. As far as I'm concerned the series was DOA.

    According to what I've read on various sites there was a misunderstanding due to the word crepuscolo meaning twilight there was going to another "final" film but that was not true. If there is one more film I won't complain, though.

    The Evangelion thread

    I have the xmas holiday set which has all the same identical discs and the Platinum thinpack so I won't be getting any of the bluray sets of evangelion.

    G-On Riders-I was digging through my several piles of self made anime dvds I did back in my earlydays of fandom and came across this series. It was a fun watch, nothing serious-just fun.

    It was ok-nothing special but a good way to get some quick entertainment.

    Aria-The Crepuscolo-what a wonderful surprise! I knew that it was coming out this year but didn't know when. I found out it was released a few months ago so I jumped on it-it was a wonderful final end to this fantastic sol series. A very fond farewell to Akari, Alice, Aika, Alicia and...

    Do you collect any blurays other than anime?

    Up to about 3 years ago I was buying tons of anime on bluray but had to stop due to running out of space to store it all. Before anime (and still to this day) I am a sci fi/fantasy fanatic-name any sci fi movie in the last 35 years and chances are I that I have it. One thing about having a huge...
