Well, with the talk of the pseudo-rorouni kenshin aka "Samurai X" 's
possible bastardization in coming to America, what does everyone think of
the impending release of Mononoke Hime this summer?  I have a list of the
voice actors who are doing it:

San - Claire Danes (Romeo & Juliet)
Ashitaka - Billy Crudup (Sleepers)
Moro - Gillian Anderson (X-Files)
Lady Eboshi - Minnie Driver (Good Will Hunting)
Jiko Bou - Billy Bob Thornton (Armageddon) 

Personally, I think that not only will it be well done, but well-received as
well.  I think Disney will take special care since the movie was such a big
hit in japan.  I also think it has a subject that concerns many Americans
today.  How do you think its release will impact America?
Geez, I sound like an essay question on a test or something!

Ack!  Don't say that!  Indiana is evil!

>Personally, I think Ranma's popularity at video rental stores suffers from

>to do it justice.

Well, the Blockbuster we had in California had at least 5 tapes on stock. 
They had all the OAV's, one of the movies, and I think the skating pair
episodes.  I didn't realize that different Blockbusters had different stocks
. . . I just never thought about it I guess . . until meeting ?Mark of
course ^-~

Ryouga should have a car then!  Faster is better!  At least that's what I
learned from driving in LA! What do you think he would drive?  I think he's
a jeep kinda person.

>But I doubt it'll be picked up as Samurai X. Sony's best chance is to get

I think they're best chance is to release it WITHOUT the filler eps!  The
pirate one wasnt so bad, but the sumo and the circus ones were terrible!! 
Kenshin would be so much better without those silly fillers . . .

>Actually, I think Brooklyn accents are evident on some of the voices :)

heh heh . . .that's really funny!  I dont even want to imagine that!

Auto-

heh heh . . a message FROM Auto ON autos . . ha ha ha!   ^-^;
okay, i'll be quiet now . . .

>Genma & Soun: A rusty, beated up Datsun 710. (Owned by Soun)

I think an old station wagon.  Soun has 3 kids remember?  Maybe even a
mini-van, although I couldn't really see him controlling one of those very
well.

>The Tendo sisters: Honda Civic.

definately.  Or a Toyota Corolla

>Ranma: A Mustang. Red.

if he could afford one . . heh heh

>Shampoo: Mazda Miata (A first generation one)

<insert some anti-shampoo joke here -hotnit, help me out>
<instert flame towards kimmee here>

>Mousse: Toyota T100 (Once he's gone trough that eye surgery)

I could see him driving a truck like a Ford Ranger or something like that.
But I think public transportation is a more likely way for him to go.  (i
would give him a ride too!) ^-^

>Kodacchi & Kunou would be driven in a Lexus.

Lexus?  Too small!  Something more like a Jaguar or Bentley . . . complete
with driver  ^-~

>Built Ryouga tough: Land Rover Defender 90 (Fully loaded with
>every navigational aid available)

definately!  Or a jeep of some sort (like i said earlier)  However I think a
Land Rover is a little tougher . . 

>Ukyou: Toyota Tacoma.

No!  SHe would drive a silver Subaru Legacy like me!  ^-^

>I know! Let's start calling Hotnit "Buckeye"! Given 
>your definition, it only makes sense! (Just kidding, 
>Hotnit-baby. You know I love you.)

Ack!  That's what I am!  A buckeye!  Err, at least that's my University's
mascot.  Yes, we have a nut as our mascot, okay??

>What's so undatable about Mousse? Is it the hands? I 
>bet it's the hands. No girl in her right mind would 
>date a guy whose hands are that sneaky.

He's just so . .so . . . <whisper> dorky </whisper> . . and uh,  . .
overly-obsessive . . . 
Not that there's anything wrong with that!  But I couldnt stand to have a
guy glomping and drooling over me all the time!  Oh dear, I'm gonna get
flamed, aren't I?

>Hotnit beer, Hotnit lite, Hotnit's chocolate syrup, Hotnit ramen,
>McHotnit's hamburgers, Hotnit Cola, Hotnit's Pizza, Hotnit everything!.

You know what's next?  "Hotnit - the movie" !  ^-^;

>What do you think? Guys? 

Oh yeah!  RANMA!!!   <drool>  Ranma can use his hands anytime on . . . oh
dear, did I say that out loud again?  *-*
