Unfortunately I am unable to assist you in your troubles with Falling for the first time, as that video is not my own, the only video on the site that is mine is Serenity, however you can E-mail Embassy who is being so kind as to host my video. He is a member of this wonderful community.

However I suspect that your problem may just be a Codec issue, if this is the case, send me an E-mail at Pangaea_Films@Verizon.net, and I will send you a few links to free codec’s.

Thanks.

So you're a bounty hunter.
No, that ain't it at all.
Then what are you?

I've been thinking of doing a very sympathetic video featuring Kansas's Dust in the Wind, does anyone think that this is a good idea?

I am currently in the process of uploading another HighRes YouSendIt file for download...

>>You will find that the series leans heavily toward American viewers hence the shows blatant respect for American Jazz, even the title names are music based...<<

I don't know the behind-the-scenes story of this show, but I don't think that American influences in the style necessarily means that it is geared towards Americans. A lot of anime use English and American cultural influences. The military occupation in Japan after WWII had a big influence on their culture.

Heck, even if you watch the Brittish TV show "Spaced", there's tons of American cultural influences, but I'm pretty sure they had no intention of marketing it for Americans.

Just a thought, it's not important, I guess. :) You gave a good description though, I like it!

You're probably right. I'll get my husband on the case. Thanks!

Actually, this is more then a guess, I am a huge fan of Cowboy Bebop, and a student of Japanese culture, I speak the language quite well in fact.
My surmise comes directly from a blog written by the show's creator; Hajime Yatate.

May take me a while to gather the courage, but I'll let you know when it's done.

Thanks for the links, I enjoyed the videos very much. From the first few minutes of Firefly I was reminded of Cowboy Bebop - which I adore. My favorite song is from the CB movie, in fact. Personally, I neither know nor care if Joss Whedon "ripped off" the Cowboy Bebop premise; I enjoy both shows a great deal, and I think knowing one enriches your experience of the other.
And, ImEarly, I definitely hear you on the subject of Vampeals!

Now that makes me look all manner of stupid! :)

I bow to your superior knowledge.

It’s nice to see someone with my perspective, and you are right, the two shows complement each other, especially in that a taste makes you hungry for more.
