For them what's interested: Mike Jittlov now has a copy of "Disney
Presents: The Animation Studio" for his Amiga. My boss, Reichart, gave it
to him today. I'm looking forward to seeing what he does with it.
[ For Amigans who have never heard of Mike Jittlov, run down to your local
video store and rent, "The Wizard of Speed And Time." ]

I liked it a lot, but I'm concerned about the submilinal messages I keep hearing about. (I didn't know about them when I rented it.) I had thought the FCC had regulations regarding the use of subliminals and I was wondering if they applied to the movie. If this is a frequently discussed topic, just reply to me. Peter E.

Come around and meet all of my friends And dance to your wishes in a camera lens.

The FCC doesn't have jurisdiction over movies. They only control use of the electromagnetic spectrum (radio, TV, telephones). To put your mind at rest, there is no evidence that subliminal messages in movies, or on TV, have any significant effect on viewers' opinions, thoughts or behaviors. A number of psychological studies have been done (some commissioned by people who really wanted to prove the effect worked).
