    So long.. and thanks for all the fish!

    BBC Video Unforunately the BBC won't sell the vid outside the UK and as far as I know it is only available in PAL format. I used to be a member of the Fan Club and was resonsible for the merchandising, including the videos!

    So long.. and thanks for all the fish!

    Douglas Adams was one cool author. Affectionately known as "Bop Ad". I was so shocked to find he had died yesterday at the age of 49. I was hooked after reading "The Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy", he had such an original style. It's a book I can read again and again. Such a shame he died so...

    Fond Memories

    That God awful remake! It was redubbed and repackaged as "G-Force". The story I heard was they lost the original audio tracks. I was gutted! I have since seen some of the originals on Cable, so some of them must have survived. I've also been told the original Japanese is much darker. I'm keen...

    Fond Memories

    Fair enough I have Ghost in the Shell, yes it's good. I am not interested in amassing a huge Manga collection, so although stuff like Gyver is good, I would not be rushing out to buy it. I can't afford to buy collections that large. Ghost was good because it's one tape! Legend is also good...

    Fond Memories

    Wow! Yeah! That's right! Tiny was the big guy! I heard rumours that they had lost the original English soundtrack. I saw the redubbed English version repackaged and called G-Force. It was pants! I'm relieved to say I have since seen some of the original BOTP on satelite. I'd buy it on video...

    Ah, we digress! That's because we've kind of changed the thread Wet! If you read the messages from the top you'll understand! Mal and I have now degenerated into a fond reminisce of a top TV manga series from our childhood! But that's the way it goes sometimes!

    Characters I remember most of the names, Keeop, 7zark7 and 1rover1, but one still eludes me. What was the girl in the swan costume called? *grin*

    Now you see them...

    Whatever happened to those disease nasties like Ebola and the skin eating disease that was splashed all over the media a few years ago? They were hot news, now you don't hear anything about them. They haven't gone away, so where are they and does anyone know of any medical advances that have...

    Fond Memories

    If you could have one series from your childhood transformed into a movie on the "Big Screen" what would it be? Mine would be my first Manga experience, "Battle of the Planets"!

    has anyone seen event horizon???

    Hollywood in "La La" land It was OK. It just got a bit lost in technobable and just got plain silly towards the end. Babylon 5 meets Clive Barker!

    Don't get hit by a car.

    We are human time bombs We are genetically programmed to grow old. This is a fundamental part of our physical makeup. Why do we insist on interfering with it? All life on this planet is programmed to pass on their genes and then die, only we got clever! If we all end up with extended lives we...

    The Largest Issue Ever

    I think it would cause all sorts of ecological issues. We have enough trouble coping with the world population as it is. I'm very much against messing with the ecosystem. Cause and effect and all that. BTW I guess I'm as close to an atheist as dammit, so I'm not taking this from a religious...
