Re: Bandai Entertainment to Stop Releasing New DVDs, BDs, Manga

I'm rather inclined to agree. If Bandai had folded, say, three or four years ago, then it would be a different story. But they drastically scaled back their operations over the past few years, to...

Re: Bandai Entertainment to Stop Releasing New DVDs, BDs, Manga

Actually, the article doesn't say anything about DVD sublicensing, and Justin Sevakis has cautioned (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/bbs/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1878406#1878406) people not to assume...

Re: Bandai Entertainment to Stop Releasing New DVDs, BDs, Manga

Among other things. One other prominent issue was that the US release also had some songs replaced, which rankled quite a few fans.

Re: Bandai Entertainment to Stop Releasing New DVDs, BDs, Manga

For the record, K-On! doesn't have a 5.0 (or 5.1 mix). </OFFTOPIC>[/QUOTE]

Right; the problem wasn't that the US BD audio was in stereo, but that the US BD audio used compressed Dolby Digital...

Re: Bandai Entertainment to Stop Releasing New DVDs, BDs, Manga

Actually, I've never watched AS -- I've always been a bit outside their target demographic, and never had much interest in their format. And I don't particularly care how the Cartoon Network...

Re: Bandai Entertainment to Stop Releasing New DVDs, BDs, Manga

That doesn't answer my question -- not even remotely.

Your original post, to which I responded, never said anything about streams. You were speculating doom and gloom about the future of Adult...

Re: Bandai Entertainment to Stop Releasing New DVDs, BDs, Manga

As a commenter on ANN recently pointed out, it's worth keeping in mind that Bandai hasn't declared bankruptcy, so they still retain their holdings. The announcement also clearly states that they...

Re: Bandai Entertainment to Stop Releasing New DVDs, BDs, Manga

How exactly would that help to contain costs?

Let's try to reality-check the defeatism, folks.



Cartoon Network co-produced The Big O. They own it, at least in part. I really doubt we'll see it...

Re: Bandai Entertainment to Stop Releasing New DVDs, BDs, Manga

I don't doubt that K-On underperformance is a possibility. Even if it posted decent numbers by any other standard, the license can't have been cheap.

However, I'm still glad that Bandai took the...

Re: Bandai Entertainment to Stop Releasing New DVDs, BDs, Manga

All the same, as a fan of the show, I'm very glad that someone brought K-On! over to these shores. I don't even mind the singles format.

Re: Anime Expo 2011: Gathering?

I'll be there. I'll be giving a talk on Sunday, as a matter of fact. (It's very academic, arguing that doujinshi are just as viable a vehicle for theory-driven analysis as any highbrow art-circuit...

Re: MW3 anyone excited?

Ditto. Here's hoping 2011 will be a better year for military shooters than 2010. Medal of Honor was pretty good -- Black Ops, not so much. A bit too corny and James Bond-esque for my taste.

Re: Hatsune Miku at AX 2011

Same way that Toyota has had an official presence at AX for several years now (starting in 2003 or 2004 with the Scion roll-out).

They're trying to associate themselves with Asian (or, at least,...

Re: Cardcaptor Sakura's Future in the R1 Industry?

Yeah, the limited edition and the regular edition. Can't was what was in the RE, because I sprung for the fancy version.

Re: US Commercial debut?

Thing is, though, they're not even doing a good job of that. Where's the context? Someone who has never heard of Miku before, and sees this commercial -- maybe even visits the website -- what's he...

Re: US Commercial debut?

I think it's quite the opposite -- it's Toyota who has nothing to lose. They're a big company, and they release lots of advertising. If this doesn't pan out for them, they'll just stop running it...

Re: US Commercial debut?

My take: Toyota is using the CGI imagery of Miku for shock effect. "Buy a Toyota! We're hip! See, we've partnered ourselves with all sorts of wierd stuff from Japan, the wierdest place on...

Re: Media Blasters: Record of Lodoss War ova. in Blu-ray anytime soon?

For TV series, yes. Most OP/ED sequences for shows from at least the early 1980s onward were shot on 35mm, not only because they were typically given their own budgets, but because it's easier to put...

Re: Media Blasters: Record of Lodoss War ova. in Blu-ray anytime soon?

Actually, most series at the time were shot on 16mm film -- 35mm, IIRC, was too expensive for the majority of anime productions. (This is why such a big deal was made about Evangelion's OP being...
