Getting What You Pay For
Sep. 18th, 2007 02:12 amIn this case, extremely cheap quasi-anime.
Back at the end of last year, I bought all six of Digiview Entertainment's (robot related) South Korean cartoon DVDs.
Tonight, while waiting out a download (yay dial-up!) I watched Solar Adventure...with the sound off and the speed doubled. (Why should I endure dubbing that is more than likely as bad as the movie itself if not worse?)
Where to start...the gorgeous still images that go along with the titles have nothing at all to do with the actual plot or anything.
The cartoon is book-ended by a live-action story. Which is quite disturbing. ( Plot of 'Solar Adventure' described in loose detail. )
I pity any parent who picked this DVD up at Wal-Mart thinking that this was good for kids to see.
FP (who is glad he didn't see this back in the 1980s when it was made)
