...since this is my first *real* message to the list, hi all. isn't it obvious what's gonna happen? sooner or later, microsoft will decide not to support any other formats than their own crapmedia. we'll all have to stick with their OS after they stop supporting W95, W98 etc. and they'll force the hardware industry to comply. our only choice will be to either switch to mac or salvage old, crappy computers with old software so we can still listen to mp3's...unless of course someone has a problem with being a *criminal*... that pretty much answers why disney doesn't mention tron anymore. it doesn't fit into their vanilla coated brave new world (did anyone ever see this show "seventh heaven"? talking about dystopia) never mind courtney. check out what steve albini has to say. at least he did something in music. http://www.negativland.com/albini.html out for now, Mark -- Mark Kammerbauer http://www.nexialist.com GMX - Die Kommunikationsplattform im Internet. http://www.gmx.net --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Not to mention "The Black Hole" -- you ever watch that shit? It's TERRIFYING. They want NOTHING to do with that movie anymore, because that's not the "kinder, gentler" Disney. It amuses me, though, that they do still show the 70's short cartoons on the Disney Channel, when it was blatantly obvious that the animators were doing so much LSD they were barely in orbit enough to form coherrent plotlines... but I digress.

God, that brings back memories - I watched that at the cinema when I was a nipper, and I had a few of the action figures too, although sadly, not that beat up old robot. The big red robot with the spinning blades was the thing I remember most vividly - particularly the scene where it attacks Anthony Perkins' character with them. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Spot on - I remembered Vincent's name, but not Bob's... saved me a trip upto the loft for the bubblegum carss to check :)

Likewise here, I think - I had the female crewmember from the Palomino, the Anthony Hopkins character and Maximillian(?) the scary robot. IIRC, the versions we got over here were just irritatingly out of scale with the Star Wars figures, so they spent most of their lives in a shoe box not being played with. -- "Screw that, make it Episode 2: Attack Of The Clowns instead.
