    Ah the old trainer. You sir, bring back memories...

    Well, look at what else was on!! Against those choices, even I would say that Sharknado had been touched by Shakespear!

    When I see that list of movies, I can only wonder at what could have been had they used all that money for fewer movies of far greater quality. What a waste.
  4. Thom
    I think that's the only way it could really work...

    Ecto-1 should have style and presence shooting out the tail pipe. It's gorgeous curves are like a 1940's pin-up. It caught my eye not because it was a 25 year old clunker, but because even when it was beat up and ratted out, it was still beautiful. Yes, I understand that the 'new' Caddy (not calling it Ector-1) is generationally in the same spot, but it is nothing like the original. No style. No flare. Just a brick painted white. With a yellow light on top... Yellow!!!?! And the group photo looks like they broke out of a correctional facility...

    I never saw the original series, so I don't know much about that, But this looks really good. Definitely fun and its great to see Cavil spreading out from the Superman role. Although I am hoping for a gag reel where he opens his shirt to show the 'S'!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_Ky4KPzKwY

    Was clued into this from SSM. I recall reading the 'Sword of Shannara' many many years ago, as an introduction to Fantasy along with the Dragonlance novels. Seeing this preview, I'm really hoping for many good things from this! Just these first glimpse are exciting! And if anything, it will give me a reason to watch MTV again...

    I saw this pre-order on E2046. It's for a resin VF-29, static fighter model. Price is listed at $47.47. http://www.e2046.com/product/22799

    That's pretty cool and it does look rather sleek. It's sure to blow some armor minds wide apart! Mine is finally getting closer to done. Needs some more paint and cleanup before decals, but she's coming along!

    Looking forward to this. I also don't know what people are looking for. I actually liked Ma Kent's line. Simple and plainly said, just as she would say it. If people are looking for Shakespear, then they're way off the mark!

    They were thinking super weapons. So basically, no smart people involved...

    Wow, nice drone. What is that from? And since I never seem to complete anything anyway... Inspired by Admiral Buck's USS Lagrange on RI, this is my USS Dauntless in 1/1000

    The fighter looks damn sweet! My only grip is the positioning of the antigrav pods. Why are they hanging down like that..? I would have put them horizontal and imbedded into the wing. Or even remove the wing entirely. You have antigrav! Why do you need a wing!?! I'll have to see it in action. Definitely if they make a model of this, I'll be doing some reworks...

    Beautifully done VF-0! Gotta love that delta design.
  15. Thom
    The trailer is already ten times better than Mission to Mars!!
  16. Thom
    Link-ed! It looks really good. Only considering his track record from Interstellar - I have low hopes for his character...
  17. Thom
    That VF-0 looks pretty dang kewel!
  18. Thom
    So, when is this available on line..?
  19. Thom
    Out of Stock, but has been available - for the right amount of coin! http://starshipmodeler.biz/shop/index.cfm/product/2465_94/172-gunstar.html

    So, not a reboot, which I would say would redo everything, including the origin. If it's just another tale of Spiderman with a new actor, I'm okay with it. It's what we need. A continuing story and not yet another take on the origin theme. I'm tired of them always starting from the beginning. Let's finally carry on with the character.
  21. Thom
    If anything needs a reboot it is this! Go right back to the G-1 storyline, with less hoomans, more robots, a Megatron who was actually a villain to fear... But oh, all the hopeless dreams... I'm glad to say I DID NOT WATCH the last movie. If I ever see it, I will watch it on TV and not waste anymore money than is already being paid to the cable company.. The first was okay. I think it was a good basis to improve, but sadly what I wanted and what the director (and I use this term loosely for Bay) differed. He wanted crap. He got crap. Money too apparently, but it does stink like turd whenever he counts it. I actually have some interest in hearing that Bay might not be in the D seat. But Bring Shia and Megan back..? I'd say no. They've run the characters out, and not in a good way. With the thirds movie, I would have gone in a different direction for them. Megan Fox was off anyway. So I would have killed her character outright! In a preview before the credits, I'd film a death scene for her, which changes Shia's character's motivation for the whole movie. A darker twist as he's now out for revenge, rather than lumping us with the super stupid super model girlfriend from out of nowhere! Oh Hell, just change everything! But keep the voice actor for Optimus. The voice from my youth, when Transformers was good and fun and the highlight of a kids life! If there is anything good about these movies, it's that Peter Cullen is being paid WELL!!

    Looking good!

    I tend to see the Queen as a product of the Collective, and not truly a controlling influence. I would imagine the initial evolution of the Borg without a central figure, was quite chaotic. Consider the thousands of billions of individual thoughts coalescing together - and then try to have a single course of action come from it. I think the Queen is akin to a sieve, in which all these thoughts and ideas are funneled and she makes the final decision on what the course will be. She was created by the Collective not as a ruler - but as the final say on the consensus. Now, back to the previously scheduled topic!

    Gunstar against a Death Star. Oh Hell yeah!!

    It's like peaking into a special FX model shop... I went back to my /350 LCS, the Sybil Ludington, after my /1000 Yamato languished long enough. I put on bridge wings, And am detailing the boat bay. A spritz of gray in the AM showed there was still some cleaning up to be done. So on it goes.
