Funkenstein

Im gonna be calling that the "Shining Fist" attack.

This is the worst thing ever since the Spider-man Clone Saga.

Number one problem for Macross toys is that they don't have official distributors outside of Japan. Thats probably the biggest reason you don't see them often in local stores.

Omega Weapon? Really? That was like a sideboss that you never had to fight right?

I don't see how that was fair at all. Though it does make me wonder if they'd let a 1/35 scale EX-S Deep Striker into the fight.

I have a theory that the reason why PPSE isn't forthcoming of how the Plavsky particles work is because they intend to militarize it first. Full size, plasteel armored Gundams. Thats why they have a training facility for their pilots and they use the tournament to collect data on tactics.

So the YF-30 is flown by Alto or something?

I guess we'll never see an OFFICIAL English release of Yamato..Oh well..

I don't see why a Star Blazers movie would stop an English release of Yamato.

Saltybet.com occasionally plays Aimo OC during MUGEN fights. Especially funny when its Dragonball Z characters are fighting because of the super-high damage beam attacks they use.

That guy's a Char!

Theres also the Gundam MS IGLOO cg OVAs that fill out some grunt view points from both sides in 0079.

Coming This October on DVD...

Are they supposed to be wrestlers or something?

Just came back from Yamatalk 7.1. Apart from getting to see previously unreleased mecha designs from 2199 (unused) , the other great thing about going to a Kazutaka Miyatake talkshow is hearing him accusing Yamato 2199 director Yutaka Izubuchi of being 'just like Kawamori!'

.... It wasn't meant as a complement! Lol

What does that mean as an insult? I have a hard time understanding that.

WEHT the Mechwarrior game that HG started legal action against most recently. Vapourware?

The game came out a few years later as a F2P online game called Mechwarrior Online. They're releasing the "unseen" mechs like the Battlemaster and Thunderbolt so the Warhammer (Tomahawk) is very likely to show up.

Did they pay Disney/Lucas to use the "droid" word?

BS overload.

"How did you make sure the old and new footage flowed together?"

"Well, that's our job!"

"I know, but I mean visually!"

"Oh. Well, that's the animators' job."

Jeeez.

"Our job is just to sit here" would have been his last sentence in the Perfect Edition of the interview.

Just watched this today. Really awesome film, it hit all the right notes if you're a anime fan! Props to the art and visual fx department! The angles really gave it a great sense of scale too.

I could see this having an anime adaptation really easily.

Saw in it regular 2D, but it seems like 3D IMAX is the way to go. Wish I had read the posts here before watching, but didn't want to spoil myself just in case.

Oh, and this:

Apparently yes, according to Kotaku:

That sounds really awesome. Unfortunately, in my theatre, it was dubbed over, so it looked really weird and out of sync, and totally lost its intended effect.

This is a must-buy Blu Ray for me, whatever special edition gets released. I do hope the line above doesn't get dubbed over.. and would it be too hard to wish for a Japanese track too?

This is really surprising. The theater I went to had the subtitles and no dubbing. What would be the point of doing that?

I watched Evangelion 3.33 over the weekend. Wow, that was suprisingly more depressing than the show.

The episode is on Youtube on the Adultswim channel. Don't know if there are region restrictions.

I tried watching Guilty Crown but the villains were so over-the-top bad that I couldn't watch it anymore. Its like someone watched Code Geass and missed the point about the villains.

There's a lot of us (most who have posted) here who think this could be bad. How bad do you think it's going to get? Poor directing? Bad acting? Painfully cheesy/forced dialog? Lame/silly characters and situations that don't fit? Stupid story-lines? Inconsistencies?

Wasn't that exactly what happened when Lucas was the only one making decisions? Can't be worse than the hamfisted prequel trilogy.

Rasputin: Child Predator. It'll be a team up with Predator.

So it will be the opposite of the book. Ah this is going to be like Starship Troopers isn't it?

That Adele song doesn't sound too impressive. The back-up chorus doesn't sound good.

Yeah, apparently this is supposed to be pretty darn good.

I still think JGL looks like Gigolo Joe, though.

Thats quite the complement.
