    These 2 are the best of friends!!! Ranka couldn't attend her concert at Tokyo, so she attended the one at Nagoya (May'n hometown!) After that she even got to go to May'n family home for dinner! Love them!

    Yes. A very young Dakota Fanning turned in an impressive performance for her age. I haven't seen it since the original airing in 2002, but I remember enjoying it at the time. My memory is sieve, not bucket, so I remember little of it, but Dakota left an impression. Funny that Elle's making more of a splash these days than her older sister, as I always thought Dakota had the stuff to be an A-lister. Disclosure day is filling me with a remarkable sense of "Meh" despite the caliber of actors and director involved. @Seto Kaiba's comments ring oh so true, especially his observations regarding the alien language and its relative similarity to the gurgles. I imagine it's challenging for sound people to come up with something that truly sounds alien, but perhaps this should have gotten the thumbs down (unless this was the best of numerous previous attempts and they finally just got tired of listening to clicks and pops). Funny how aliens' abilities always have to comport to human sensibilities. What if the aliens communicate in a frequency outside of human hearing, making them essentially silent to us? That, to me, is far scarier than snap, crackle, pop. Anyway, I agree that Spielberg hit his high note with Close Encounters of the Third Kind regarding alien stories. Unless they introduce something else more intriguing in subsequent trailers, without giving the whole movie away, I'm thinking this is one for streaming.

    Yeah, I mean, at some point the CPU becomes the bottleneck, even if you're running AI models, and not trying to generate frames for gaming...

    You know what I thought was better than this trailer? Steven Speilberg's TAKEN mini series.

    Very interesting! Color me intrigued.

    Ok last one for today. Been home with a sick kiddo today so have some time on my hands. I wanted to share some pics of my monster build from last year. Spooky stuff right here. Alignment on the main cannons was an issue for me and they look so flat and almost on the same plane and less staggered like in the artwork. Also some seam issues lurking that I never dialed in. I would love an updated version of this kit. This was a fun one and I learned so much from it.

    I am in the process of cleaning up my stash, cataloging my kit manuals, decals and extra parts hands etc… and recycling all these empty boxes. Anyway I discovered I had a resin kit in my stash all this time and never opened it and completely overlooked it. I don’t even remember when I bought it. Lol. I’m old and will use that as my excuse. Anyway I pinned it up quick this morning. It’s very very basic with only a few pieces but needs lots of clean up. It’s the Hasegawa Macross DYRL Miria non scale figure. This will be my first figure build and hope to work on it this year if possible. It will look nice next to her Q-Rau

    Huh... so... yeah... that was certainly a trailer. Kind of an underwhelming one when all's said and done. I'm sure that was probably meant to be weathergirl getting possessed by aliens, but between the face she was making and the sound effects all it was missing to be a rejected Pepto-Bismol ad spot was the tagline "Where will you be when diarrhea strikes?". Kind of a tension-destroying audio choice... unless you're the one mopping the floors, I guess. Having the aliens come to Humanity speaking the dreaded language of the Ta-ko B'el (or is that Wytte Kast-El?) feels like a "fire your sound engineer" sort of decision. Doing another movie around the fairly generic premise of the government covering up the existence of aliens until first contact because Mankind Is Not Ready is certainly a choice too. That premise aged like milk, and in the present day it seems especially silly and unbelievable. Unless they've got a better trailer waiting in the wings, I'm definitely waiting for this to hit streaming.

    I can’t believe I got this.

    Rrrready!!! Closer to 39cm when complete.

    Millions of seam lines later I’m about to prime this 🦖 today. I’m guessing I’ll have to do additional surface prep once the primer reveals errors in my hasty work. I had lots of ambitious plans for this old fella but I am feeling lazy so this will be a straight build without modding anything.

    It’s just sad that they couldn’t get good animators for this.
