"He-Man and Masters of the Universe" Film by Sony
lochness replied to Mazinger's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I have no idea what to expect, seems like an origin story of sorts. Maybe Adam came from Earth to Eternia? Still, I don't have high hopes as Sony has yet to make a good Spider-Man live action movie that doesn't have Marvel involved. But I'll keep an open mind till I see the full trailer. -

At this rate, you are going to have a playable open world with hijackable aircraft before gta6 drops lol

That article sounds like they put a lot of though into arriving at the most brain dead obvious corner cutting solution that I've been explaining for them. At this point, they are just seeding the idea of the whole "missing link" valkyrie so they can soften the blow for being inaccurate, and maybe leave the door open to come back around to doing a true "anime accurate" version later. I don't think anyone would have blamed them too much for going for the lazy solution if they had at least made the head cover slide away, did new shoulders, and sloppily glued a blank cover over the foot details lol. I've mentioned it before, but they could have done the same with the legs and just glued armor part style panels, over the existing legs to at least approach the original proportions and hide the wrong missile ports, while adding the correct super part connections. I'm fairly certain a moderate layer of armor could fit under the backpack without even dropping a click on the gerwalk joint. I still think the most bizarre thing they did was make new elbows that could otherwise have been passed off as artistic difference if untouched, yet somehow make the new ones longer when they should have become shorter, when there was always a few mm left on the 171's to do that. Really curious to see what kneejerk conclusion bandai gets when they are met with the likely disappointing sales, espacially when the price tag is basically the same as the remaining stock of Armored 171EX revivals...

Pontus started following Lego-ish TV SDF1 found on Amazon

Hey all, just wondering if anyone has seen or bought this? Just saw it in my suggested items on Amazon this morning, and it... actually looks pretty good with some good reviews too! The brand name is totally sus tho, "Stadrewvy". 😄 This is clearly a knockoff brand, so does anyone know if this is from some name brand like Mega Blocks, etc.?

Guinan is El-Aurian, as was Dr. Soran... and there was a guy in an episode of DS9, as I recall. 🤔 I don't know what a "Lanthenite" is, as I haven't seen Strange New Worlds. 🤨

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
Thom replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
Tidal waves. When the SDF-1 folds in order to escape the first attack, they took all of Ataria Island with them, as well as a lot of the surrounding water. Now, imagine the sea around that rushing in to fill the empty spot. If an earthquake under the ocean can cause tidal waves to hit the surrounding land masses, then I wouldn't surprised if there were massive tsunamis almost world wide. -

Master Dex replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
Basara can tell you, in the M7 movie The Galaxy is Calling Me he folds right near the ground, immediately loses control and crashes in battroid, and survives by ejecting only to be scolded by colonists for folding in so recklessly. It's a known thing apparently. It's not unlike Battlestar Galactica jumping into the atmosphere of New Caprica and then popping out creating a shock vacuum I bet. If you're not in the ground you might survive but it's dangerous. -

Definitely fits the description of toxic gases and probably explosive materials and it just might be too spicy for the weak to handle -
The Comedic Lanthenite thing is stupid. To the best of my knowledge, we have only ever seen two of the species (excluding the background refugees in Generations) before this. Guinan, who was a serious and relatively no-nonsense immortalish character who was the first to make Q think twice, and who he might have even been afraid of, and Pelia, who is a goofball. But here is the thing, Pelia is a goofball not because she is a Lanthenite, but because she is played by CAROL FREAKING KANE. She works great as a comedic character because Carol Kane is a comedian. Holly Hunter is not; she is a serious dramatic actress (for the most part), so her acting as this goofball character feels beyond forced. Given that she is a near-immortal instructor/captain, I would expect her character to be played more as a burnt-out retiree who was called back to service and who is sick of all the cadets' BS.

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
Big s replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
I’d imagine that since materials are removed while folding out of a planets atmosphere, like missing water and land and air for example needing to immediately be filled in with rushing water and air, then the opposite might take place while folding into the atmosphere. Air might get displaced and rapidly pushed out to make room for the craft. Not sure how bringing a vacuum into atmosphere would do anything crazy, but that may be a factor, and of course possibly bringing in rapid contaminants might be a slight environmental issue as well. I’d imagine the issue being a bigger problem if something like a large ship were to fold in from another planet’s atmosphere, especially if it were from a toxic atmosphere since it might bring in some gases from that particular world. -
nice read: quote Kimura: In the midst of all this, I came up with a rather spontaneous idea: if we shortened the nose of the DX Chogokin VF-171EX, we could create something similar to the VF-17.

Super Macross Mecha Fun Time Discussion Thread!
pengbuzz replied to Valkyrie Driver's topic in Movies and TV Series
Seto, I have a question about this, but it's a bit complicated to set up (and I'm probably overcomplicating it). Here goes... We've seen the Macross(SDF-1) in SDFM fold from a planet's surface to space and seen the Macross 7 fleet fold off of "Lux"/ "Rax" (saw both used for the planet's name) in Macross 7 Ep 38. In SFDM, it took Macross Island and part of the atmosphere/ ocean with them, while in M7, the planet was breaking up due to Gigile's "black space/ void" powers (so not sure if folding out did anything to the planet or the ship). But I've never seen in the series' for any of the Macross shows (admittedly I haven't seen every single episode of every single series) the consequences of a craft/ ship folding into a planet's atmosphere/ gravity well, and I think I missed the episodes with Operation Stargazer in them for M7. In Macross Plus, both Isamu and Guld apparently fold to just outside Earth orbit, outside of the orbital defense grid (I guess they have things in place to prevent someone from just folding in past it? ). My question is: are there any negative consequences of a craft/ ship folding inside a planet's gravity well/ atmosphere? -
