Re: Anime North 2023

I really liked your Anime from 1983 Let's Anime article, I'd love to see the panel, too. That Classic Anime Afternoon sounds like fun, too. Have a good show!

Re: What did old-school fans think about digital fansubs?

I did a lot of copying and trading of VHS fansubs, and helped out on a few of the CPF releases. In terms of the scarcity of fansubs, or the ability to replace lost fansub tapes, well, generally you got that fansub from someone you knew. If a dog ate that tape of the Patlabor movie fansub, or if you...

Re: Let's Anime: the anime films of 1983

Great write up as usual - looking just at the films released during the year is a good way to get variety of content but also keep things at a very manageable length. 1983 feels like a jam packed year - all the films, lots going on on TV and the start of the OAV format. FINAL Yamato is quite the end...

Re: What did old-school fans think about digital fansubs?

Yea digital archiving is more important now than ever. Archive.org can only do so much and yet it does quite alot. What worries me about archive.org is the fact that its a great hub for people to upload old fansubs, dubs and etc (Mike Toole uses it to uplaod old dubs) but the other side of that swo...

Yeah, they must have tried to save a few bucks using the duplicators with dirty heads. :lol:

Re: What did old-school fans think about digital fansubs?

I'm probably not the right person for this because I've been kind of perpetually online since my teens (in my forties now) but I knew then as I know now, the idea that "the Internet never forgets" is quite a myth. It is probably better understood that once something is shared on the Intern...

Re: Let's Anime: Force Five

Terry's crew was also responsible for the infamous “Crushers” dub of the Nippon Sunrise film Crusher Joe. I was talking about Crusher Joe in a facebook group I am a member of and I got to thinking - the clips of Crusher Joe in Bad American Dubbing, is that the Jim Terry dub of Crushers? Also, that ...

Re: Hello everyone! VHS collector and ex-fansubber here

Unfortunately my fansubbing insight is quite dated, and I'm also running on a Macbook now instead of Windows. But back in the day, I used Aegisub to time all my subtitles, it was a pretty powerful tool. And I used VirtualDub with AVISynth for encoding, I believe I did that for MP4 files too when we...

Re: RIP Jim Kaposzatas

Walter Amos, posting as "Rheinhard" on the ANN Forums here wrote up some more good info about Jim. I remembered from the AWO interview that Jim did commercial video editing and production but I didn't know he held rotations of the "reaper beeper". ANN has a full obituary here.
