Q: What do the different formats, NTSC and PAL, mean?
A: The short answer is that NTSC files are for people in North America, including the United States and Canada. PAL files are for users in regions other than Region 1, such as the United Kingdom and Australia. The long answer has to do with technical specifications of each format. NTSC and PAL have different framerates - meaning a PAL video actually is a bit faster than its NTSC counterpart, making it somewhat shorter. It's difficult to notice unless you have two versions of the same movie (or audio file) playing side-by-side; but eventually you'll notice the PAL version being ahead of the NTSC version. Sometimes the difference is as much as a few minutes! If you find that your mp3 file is constantly out of sync with the DVD you're watching, first make sure that you've downloaded the correct format of mp3 (NTSC for Region 1, PAL for elsewhere) and then check other things, such as the DVD version (Collector's Edition, Director's Cut, etc.) is correct for that mp3 file. These details are usually found on the product page. For more information on NTSC, as well as a list of countries that use it, click here. For PAL information use this link.
Insert Coin(s) to Continue presents his sure to be worst selling track of all time! That's right -- Ryan is riffing a film so rare, Netflix doesn't even have a copy of it. For you Gamera completionists out there, though, here you go. A healthy, steaming portion of Gamera: Attack of Legion ... or is it Advent of Legion? The film decides to change names somewhere between the boxart and the title screen.
Watch your favorite flying turtle on his greatest* adventure yet. A legion of blood-thirsty insects has landed on Earth, and in true Power Rangers fashion, they assimilate to form a giant monster to stand against Gamera ... and there's a giant flower in there somewhere. I don't know, I wasn't really paying attention. All you need to know is: it's weird, the voice acting is still terrible, and there's a Japanese scientist wearing a pink, poofy, femmy jacket! What more could you ask for in a film?
This is part two of the Gamera Heisei trilogy

That's RightStuf -- one 'f'
I saw Chris comment on www.rightstuff.com, and thought "gee, I recognize that site, but I'm pretty sure I've never bought any DVD's from there...". It is a cool site in its own right, but indeed it has no DVD's. ___p___
However, www.rightstuf.com does have the box set, or at least it did when I checked yesterday. I ordered a copy, and they confirmed the order without laughing at me, so I assume the box set is on its way. Thanks for the tip!
Another good one
Apart from the one goof, another good riff and continued improvement. The addition of fake DisembAudio as an occasional actor in the riff gives him someone to sound off against, always a good thing. Could have done more with my favorite creepy monster girl, but there's always the third movie :) You can get the boxset of all three movies at www.rightstuff.com if needed (in stock as I type this).
For those who do manage to listen
There is a technical slipup near the beginning of the track. You'll know it when you hear it. Somewhere in the editing process, a joke was repeated once more than it should have been. It doesn't throw off the sync, so just ignore it. Alternatively, enjoy this special joke to replace it:
