because I have nothing else to watch

After enduring [livejournal.com profile] heykidzcomix' incessant nagging*, I found the Brisco County DVD set last night. Watched the pilot with commentary. I am a better human being now.

Mom had a giant girlcrush on Dixie Cousins, and it's hard to blame her. She also always felt it necessary to point out that Brisco's dad was buried on a hill "for the drainage," then cackle like a fiend. Strange woman.

So far, the best thing is learning that the Rocket Car was a functioning vehicle that could shoot 30-foot jets of flame. Carlton Cuse volunteered to ride it back to the roundhouse after shooting, which must surely have been the best thing ever.


*She said, "Hey, did you get it?" The NERVE!

Balls. Still I figured it would be something like that. I know with that manga is out of print and Tokyopop wants to do a reprint, but all the distribution rights for the SM manga are tied up at the moment because Takeuchi is having a tiff with TOEI. Since my copies got thrown out years ago (to my regret) I've tried locating scans online, to some success.

Heck, I guess you could call me a first generation SM fan, seeing as how it was my introduction to anime and all. I want DVDs! I demand it!

*crickets*

Still animecollector.com looks good, I guess I'll add the dvds to my Christmas and Birthday wish lists. :3

If they do a reprint, I hope they do a complete remastering. Those early volumes are horrid.
