If Christina Aguilera feels inadequate enough about her career to start rivalries with other people, fine, but this petty rivalry stuff can stay on ET, not news programs. I also dislike calling customer service lines for any large corporation. Lately, any company, it seems I always get someone who d...

I get annoyed watching the news. Because half of it isn't news. It's no wonder the enws on Iraq barely leaks out. Just Friday, I had to witness a news report on how Pink and Christina Aguilera are arguing. That's not news. I don't think it's even anyone's business, not even to their fans. It's unimp...

Honestly, I think the only kid targeted anime dub that survived with decency was Hamtaro. I'm not sure even if they dubbed it accurately, but hey, the show's enjoyable. I actually like it. I never really got into Yu-Gi-Oh. I lost interest at about the opening theme song(literally. I thought the them...

The Miyazaki movies for the most part. Though I've heard the original 1990s dub of Castle In The Sky was bad(the one on the DVD is a recent re-dub). I honestly thought the Mononoke dub was excellent. I really liked the Excel Saga dub, because they threw in a lot of stuff the Japanese version didn't ...

FWIW, Tim Allen also says nu-cu-ler. Just watch Big Trouble . I'm not sure of the Patriot Act includes executions or not. If it does, it probably falls under the treason clause in the constitution. Which, technically, execution is the punishment for treason, but isn't enforced anymore. John Walker L...

Personally, I don't much care for Bush, but I also don't trust Dean, Leiberman, or the other candidates. Especially not Pat Robertson, who's an admitted racist. And personally, I don't really think Clinton was all that special. He's got a big smile on his face because 9/11 didn't happen under his wa...

Good call on the deaths in the DiC dubs. And yes, I did read. He-Man and Justice League are aimed at children as well. JL, as well as Superman, have also used "God" as an expression. So I hardly think CN is too worried about the stuff in Stars, they show most of that on a regular basis as is. CN als...

Half of it's stuff that CN shoves into every episode of Justice Leage and He-Man anyway. You can't go 2 episodes of He-Man without seeing at elast one person slammed into a wall so hard it leaves stress cracks in the surface. And what Sailor Moon franchise are they woried about in the US? It's not i...

Finally saw episode 1. For the first episode, some of it seems like they were rushing it. The CGI Luna was passable, but the hand monster looks about 10 years old. For the most part, it wasn't any cheesier than a few other live-acion superhero shows that have been made, though. I do think Jadeite's ...

Of course, if they take it away, and another 9/11 happens, then it'll just be used as an excuse for something even stricter to be implemented. Still, regardless of who's in charge, it's probably irrelevant. I want Howard Dean to be in charge as much as I do Ashcroft. No, I don't trust any of the 04 ...

I don't know, a DVD might be feasible if Pioneer could get the rights. I doubt ADV would even try given how many people now hate them over their current boxsets. Unless they wanna dig that hole a bit deeper. Of course, there is that Stars bootleg DVD that's easy to find on eBay. An official set woul...

Personally, I think their whole argument's crap. If Toei was that concerned over Stars "ruining" their image, then it never would have been animated. The fact they even allowed subtitled editions of the episodes in the US is also an indication Toei isn't too concerned about censoring the show. And g...

Trust me, the RIAA isn't out to uphold the law. Their sales aren't even down. They just come up with "expected earnings" for the year and when they don't earn that, then they complain that MP3s are causing it. They ignore the other causes(lack of interest in certain artists, old artists have been pu...

Basically, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act makes it easier for corporations to sue and to get more money for internet piracy. Technically, under it, a good percentage of internet users, not just MP3 downloaders, are breaking the law. And the penalties can be worse than the penalties for certain...

Oh please. Adult Swim has shown nude, crudely drawn breasts before. The episode of Lupin III where the plot was to turn Lupin into an old man anyone? And the TG stuff wouldn't matter. Kenshin got away with it. CN's standards have grown much looser from last Sailor Moon was on. So I'd say it would e...

I've run into 3 language usage situations- 1) characters speak english. Foreign sentence swill be printed in their language. 2) some characters speak english, others another language(typically a SM/US series crossover). I replace " with * for all non-english sentences, as the dialogue must be transl...
