  1. I nearly gave up on Clone Wars (and this) when I got to the Younglings building lightsabers - I ended up skipping those and the droid episodes that followed. The ones following that were excellent. Hopefully this show has fewer clunker episodes and more of the good ones. The teaser clip does not make me hopeful though.
  2. The one episode of Futurama handled the whole missing link thing very well. From the title of the thread all I could think of was this thread might be about an alien dating service (Lack of sleep this morning...)
  3. If I have not yet seen a TV show from before 1990 or so I most likely will not find it watchable any longer. This depends on the budget of course. I find it hard to get past the lack of fluidity or detail that such shows had to have in order to be made for a reasonable amount. Movies from the era and a good bit of the OVA work I occasionally see are still good however.
  4. Watched "War of the Worlds: Goliath" last night and it deserves a mention on this thread (I was thinking of listing it on the current anime thread but it REALLY deserves to be here). http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2320924/ Highlights I think they managed to fit in every possible cliche. The animation second rate (though some of the effects were nicely done). The dialog was crap. The character designs were of Shadow Chronicles quality. If you are going to have Teddy Roosevelt at least make the character act a little bitty bit like him.
  5. Typo and wrong title. The Frankie movie from last January "Frankenstein Unbound", turd from start to finish. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099612/
  6. And it was a masterpiece compared to Frankenstein: Unchanged. Gawd that was terrible.
  7. They might be serious but it still looks pretty bad. Wife wants to see it so a little mindless mayhem is in my future.
  8. I doubt that scaffolding is for a full size mockup - there is scaffolding where there should be no Falcon (between where the front protrusions are). If that scaffolding was for a full scale Falcon that particular bit would not be there. Having more then one full size models (or bits of models) is not unusual either. It allows one to be damaged for example.
  9. one word - MONEY. I have read one of his histories of the civil war and it was excellent.
  10. That is the first time I remember seeing wood on the top of the Yamato (except the real one of course). That would not fare too well in space. (OK, so I love Galaxy Express too and a train doesn't belong in space either - no matter what handwavium excuse is given)
  11. No. I'll still go see it (tanks, WWII...) but that trailer makes me wary. Pathetic love interest, please... Busted Sherman holding a crossroads, not a chance.
  12. I see this series is now on Netflix streaming. Did someone say so earlier and I missed it? Anyway, something new to watch!
  13. The guy slated to direct is a Star Blazers fan, so there is hope.
  14. Went and saw it on Saturday, even the running sequence wasn't so bad in Imax. The audio for the Vietnam battle sequence were fantastic.
  15. I don't know how well the Yamato movie did in Japan, in the US Starblazers was a cult favorite at best though. But I'm a charter member...
  16. Well they have to get it out now, before that other anime movie... Back to reality, I didn't think it would get this far and would love to see it get made - even if it ends up being a stinker.
  17. The WEG Star Wars game was a great system for playing a Star Wars based RPG (I still have the main rules, guide to the empire, and Star Warriors), but the idea of using one's tongue for controller anything is just a really bad idea.
