  1. It doesn't have any of the films in Yoji Yamada's "Samurai Trilogy" on the list, so I cannot take it seriously. Especially The Twilight Samurai.
  2. Here is my concern: while I feel Ford could do an ok job, I have serious doubts regarding Hamil and Fisher's abilitiy to put out an adequate acting performance in even limited roles.
  3. Electric, you do understand why that doesn't make sense, right? Abrams rebooted Star Trek with new actors in the old roles. They didn't get closure; they got new life. Star Wars is a continuation. And again, I am not sure why people are assuming the original trio will be the main characters.
  4. Right, because that's the reputation of everyone involved in developing the sequels: they ruin films with their incompetence.Would you be happier if they hadn't brought them back, and just wrote them out of the story all together? Just pretend they don't exist? Mark Hamil ruined (and i wouldn't even say that) Luke in Jedi with his acting. Harrison Ford not wanting to be there didn't help his performance, either, but his role was pretty limp before he ever spoke a line out of the script they gave him.
  5. Again, I don't know why some of you are assuming they are going to call upon the original trio to carry on like they did three years ago. As if somehow Kathlenee Kennedy, Lawrence Kasdan, Michael Arndt, and J.J. Abrams are unaware of the limitations placed upon the actors by their age or condition. Besides, didn't Carrie Fisher lose a ton of weight in the past year or two?
  6. I hope not, unless you're using a seprate bluray player.
  7. But why? Do we need to go back and "de-age" Alec Guinness? There are and endless amount of stories to be told with them as they are. Why are you even assuming they're the main characters of the sequels?
  8. I had already done it. Was just commenting.
  9. No achievement for 183? #fail I want my 15 min back.
  10. The enter movie is full of holes. A real shame.
  11. I am about finished with a new playthrough of ME3 I started last weekend, with all three story DLCs installed. Not that it wasn't a hell of a ride before (whatever your opinion of the ending, old or expanded), but it is now easily one of my favorite gaming experiences of my life. Levianthan adds an integral piece of lore to the Mass Effect universe, and MUST be played if you are a serious ME fan. Omega is a fun actioner, but light on any major story bits. Together these two DLCs add 6-8 hours onto your play time. But the gem, the real piece of excellence, is the Citadel DLC that came out on March 5th. It was crafted with love by everyone involved in the ME trilogy, for those of us who have been there since the beginning. You can call it fan service, you can even call it out of place, but it is without a doubt the most epically awesome DLC I have ever had the pleasure of playing in any game. It is pure joy, wrapped in a cheeseburger of drunken revelry. If you are a ME fan and don't get the Citadel DLC, you are missing out on what is the perfect send-off to the characters we all know and love. You HAVE to play it. HAVE TO. And by play it I mean squeeze every ounce out of it. If you don't you risk missing out some truly wonderful moments. I leave you with this taste (awesomeness spoiler, but not a story spoiler):
  12. So, having read the entire article, it certainly seems that Lucas was in the very earliest stages of pre-production on the sequels before this deal came down. Also revealing: they had signed--or were in the late stages of signing--Hamil, Fisher, and Ford to do the sequels before the Disney deal was finished. And then he essentially says, whoops, I wasn't supposed to say that, and that Disney is looking to make a big to-do out of the three of them coming back.
  13. Wanted to get this in before this gets locked. Like many of you born in the 70's who found anime and manga early in their lives, Toren Smith had a huge impact on my fandom. I was truly saddened to hear this news.
  14. FPS are unplayable without game mode. Game mode puts the TV at 60Hz, which current gen games run at. Most TVs these days run at 120 or 240Hz; hence game mode. It also improves input lag. Game mode isn't a gimmick.
  15. Hey now, thems fightin' words!
  16. I'm fairly certain no tribe on Earth has appendages like that.
  17. Transitions of what? Anime?
  18. Retail, how quaint.
  19. How often have you upgraded the GPU and RAM in your consoles? Right, and that is why consoles never have been on par with PCs. The hardware is outdated before the consoles even hit the market. If you've thought otherwise all these years, you've been wrong.
  20. Console graphics have never been on par with PCs, and never will be.
  21. Avatar doesn't have a single original bone in its body.
