Funky.

I've done this with the Robotech tapes I have (which is only about the first
12 episodes, but they're supposed to be coming out on DVD soon...) and I was
going ot try it with a friend's Star Blazer's set, but I left them on the
train. D'oh! Not cheap to replace, mind you. :(

I often do not build to music. Dunno why, it seems like a completely

I don't build to music, either.  I tend to build while movies are on!  Either I
watch one of the DVDs or VHSs I own, or I have on one of the pay channels I get
on cable (I rarely watch "TV" anymore, apart from The Simpsons, Futurama, and
The Sopranos- but I do watch a lot of movies on cable).

When I'm not watching random Cable gibberish, I watch basically, any movie I
know well enough that if I pause from building I know right where I am, and
what's happening- also, movies that are consistantly good, so I don't have stop
building for "the good part" because they're all full of good stuff.

Lately, it's been:

The Way of the Gun
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
Star Wars (all 4)
The Messenger
Leon: the Professional

But I go in cycles.
