    A battleship escorted by two carriers. Is there a subtle message that's being sent with that one? Especially considering the battleship is Yamato? 😁

    Confessions of an Economic Hitman. At times, the author feels like he is embellishing, but there is some genuine history here, most of it will remain obscured. But it is an interesting perspective of history.

    The sad part is that they could have made this movie so much more. Keanu needs to go back the JW.

    Where did 2202 end up streaming?

    They took one of the better villains in Smith and replaced him with Doogie Howser, MD. Whose most threatening characteristics was likely to be the bill he gives you for his services right before Christmas.

    I can sum up my reaction in three letters. WTF. Somewhere along the line, the storyline took a turn to the deeply weird. The machines went to war… then what…

    Marvel is taking notes. Hawkeye and Black Widow…. Kate and Yelena, a girl’s gabfest…. Think sex and the city Marvel style…. Haha, Gotta attract the other half of the population. 🤑

    At least Masterson is still alive… 😅 I hope the fall of Gamilas has a little more detail than just this. In the original, Gamilas had been abandoned, undefended. Here, it just feels odd that the population is there and the enemy just waltzes right in.

    I did forget that to keep things moving along… they do need to bring back the older actors periodically, like they already did with Hopkins and Russo in Thor, Redford in Winter Soldier, Jolie in Eternals, the entire spider cast in the last movie, enough to pull in the old audience to squeeze the turnip for a little more dinero while transitioning to a younger crowd with money. And give it more gravitas. I mean you can see it, a few years from now when Cumberbach passes on the torch, they can cameo like RDJ did in how many movies. Toss in Ruffalo, what’s her name in Captain Marvel and so forth. Then cycle in new actors and so forth. Just like Johnny Cash mentioned in the prison song.

    you'd have to admire Disney for trying to turn over their cast. In reality, since their story boards are already written courtesy of Marvel, they can get away with a whole lot. As long as the comic books keep churning out new ideas, interesting villains, they could keep the gravy train going forever. I think the trick for them is to build up a generational audience. Cycle out the older >45 year old actors and actresses as main characters over the course of a decade or two, keeping up a long overriding arc on their movies, and then slowly phase those out. You figure, you have got a new Capt America, some type of new Black Panther, a new Widow, a new Hawkeye, etc, and pretty soon, new X-men. You can toss in the multiverse, and suddenly, you've got Avengers vs Magneto, Spiderman taking on Hydra, X-men against the Sinister Six. Then run through the variation on the storylines to fit in the time frames, I mean you could do a stand alone Omega Red vs Wolverine, and the list goes endlessly on and on. The money machine keeps on churning, especially if little Bob does as well as his predecessor, Sideshow Bob, and starts grooming a successor Bob, they'll manage somehow. Even though their parks business and store business are still on a long path to recover.

    It's an interesting way to potentially reset the Spiderman franchise again. Tabula Rasa. So, if they wanted to, they could divorce Sony from Marvel again in a way. After all, friendly neighborhood spiderman doesn't have to interact with all of the big ones in the MCU. After all, Holland might be getting expensive. Time to find the next Garfield.

    Ha ha, I misread for a sec, I thought it said Friends choose the F-35.
  13. kalvasflam
    Rogers the Musical... ha ha ha ha. And liked the joke about mixing up Hawkeye with what's her name on Hunger games.

    I am actually interested in this movie, all things considered it can't possibly be worse than the other three pieces of crap that Marvel put out this year. BW: The best thing about that movie was ScarJo suing the Mouse. SC&LTR: Awfulfina... need I say more, not even having Tony could save that movie. E: WTF was that even? Wish Thanos snapped them away and Banner didn't know enough to snap them back.

    At 24, I was doing an internship in a place I always thought was a part of the country I never wanted to visit. Spent a year there, and changed my perspective, now I think I wouldn't mind one bit living in a place like Austin. But it was eye opening to see how wrong one's preconceived notion about a place can be. But I remember borrowing a large electronic projector from work over a weekend, and rewatching all of Macross II again from a rental at the blockbuster down the road. That was fun.

    Probably just as well… if it’s anything like the last movie. Remember though, cause it’s a Jenkins movie, it must have an empowering theme like the Eternals.
  17. kalvasflam
    It is…. But they spread that purple out to pretty much the entire scene. Looks ok on the comic book, but here, not quite as much.
  18. kalvasflam
    What’s with all the purple? Is it to make the dog stand out?

    It's somehow fitting that Captain Kirk is riding into space with that particular rocket. One wondering what kind of rocket Captain Picard would use.... may be one with a British accent?
  20. kalvasflam
    it was very entertaining as a finale. I like how they keep slapping Stark down. The Stark is Kenny meme is definitely getting traction, although they didn't kill him this episode. what happened.... too busy to animate a Tony Splat scene?

    The one thing I like about the designs in the reimagined Yamato is the consistency in those designs. The Gamilas ships have not changed much between the two series, and looks to be consistent moving ahead, sure there is variation in command ships , but those are one offs and not mass production designs. I hope that they keep the Earth designs relatively fixed. Stick with the Battleship and Andromeda designs, they are proven and they work. even without the temporal fault, Earth should still be able to build Andromeda class. It just takes longer.

    If only somehow the redshirt could be replaced with Mickey Mouse.

    So, I have a stupid question here, what the heck happened to the Gamilas class Andromeda carriers, were they some kind of loaners or something. So sad to see poor Berger with a triple deck that only has mocked up beam cannons that was obviously bolted on at the last minute to help Bandai sell model kits. As for the Bolar... underwhelming so far. It's like the first time the Comet Empire appeared in season 1 when Domel just ran over them like some crack whore on the street with his fancy new SUV. And Google Translation rocks: Yuki, would you like me to urinate on you... they may as well have gone for that. If you can't do quality, just don't do it.

    ScarJo: Career secured. $$$ secured. Total victory. Mickey Mouse: ****ing b****

    One of the few movies that might be interesting coming out of the DCAU as of late. I am wondering if they make it a two parter. Injustice had a pretty good backstory. And I like a-hole Superman.
