I just hate to see the way that Marvel has treated it's artists over the years, they really hand those guys the short end of the stick!

I hope he wins & I hope he gets them for some MAJOR bucks! He's more than earned it over the years, and he's more than right in this situation IMHO.

Stan Lee had a major impact on me growing up and I wish him nothing but the best. Big ups and kudos for all the happy hours he gave me....and destruction and chaos to his enemies and those who wish him unwell!

Cool beans, I'll keep my eyes out for 'em. I think I'm a closet anime freak; I've always loved it, I just haven't let myself get too into it yet. I think I'm kind of afraid of the kids seeing it, it'd be pretty disturbing to a 2 & 5 year old and I would HATE to have to explain some of the stuff going on!

do research before buying some of it... you could buy a tape thinking it was going to be a cool kid's comedy, and it'd turn out to be a xxx comedy... i've had that happen once. (ok, i have nothing against porn, but animated porn just aint right

)

Ryoko · Nov 13, 2002, 09:25 PM

oh, and in alot of anime, the rating is like pg... rarely pg-13, and alot of r and nc17... just have to preview it, yknow

reno · Nov 14, 2002, 03:31 AM

Favorite Animes:

Ghost in the Shell, Akira, Ninja Scroll, Vampire Hunder D (the second one). Armitage 3 was okay...although, I didn't know that was actually the first one! There are more out, what the hell?

Anyway, yeah, fox did the same thing to HR Giger years ago. The guy who created the alien wasn't even mentioned in the fourth movie, and in the third, he had to sue to have them put on (at the near end of the credits) "original creature design - HR Giger".

I mean, come on! Most of Gigers work WAS the alien (in MANY forms) and then fox claims it's stan winston's monster now just because he "narrowed" the head! ARGH!

Kelsenellenelvian · Nov 14, 2002, 04:39 AM

Princess Mononki was Schweet.. Anime rox!!!

JavaFox · Nov 14, 2002, 04:48 AM

Not to be confused with Ghibli's "Princess Mononoke," I'm sure.

Kelsenellenelvian · Nov 14, 2002, 05:09 AM

AAAAwwwww sh1t thanks for the spelling correction...

Not to be confused with Najikiro Mitsuhimi's "Prince Mononononoke's Boisterous Tentacle Binding."
