  1. You can tell it never had much of a chance to begin with, September is death for movie releases.
  2. I missed the first one in theaters, but this is a must see so far... (but my lord, the comments section is worse then usual...) http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=sED6FRXIHJc
  3. Which is good, since it is a stupid idea! But since it is Yamato, and the original had it, I will forgive them. (especially stupid in Yamato, where a single round from anything will kill anything - except Yamato of course)
  4. Finished watching the first two, the show certainly has promise but could also fall down a deep chasm of mediocrity if they are not careful. They are walking a fine line between acceptable for younger viewers while still keeping the show gritty.
  5. So, someone is stalking Analyzer while Analyzer is stalking Yuki? I like it.
  6. 500 years from now Whitney and Amy will be long forgotten, but RB will be up there with the greats.
  7. I should read that again as well, I have a hard time remembering what was the novel and what was the TV movie any longer.
  8. YES! And the music, I'm sure they updated it but most of it is exactly what I remember.
  9. I like EVERYTHING about Yamato 2199. Hijitaka being in the first series, the character background changes (only hinted at, but what was Yuki looking at on the bridge? As an example...) Thankfully Dr. Sado hasn't changed a bit though. The animation is excellent throughout as well. Finally I like that the battle at Pluto was a diversion for Sasha (not a spoiler, it is stated pretty much up front). The $90 price tag for an hour of animation is STEEP though. If it were not Yamato I would not be paying that much - the 2 hours of animation on future disks will be a welcome change, still higher then I would like to pay but a much better cost/quantity ratio I can at least justify.
  10. Musashi was never in Yamato, or if it was it didn't last long (most other EDF ships fall in that category...). I don't remember the ship above, might be a fan work or concept art. (then again it could be a ship seen in the show, once again not lasting very long)
  11. Have to get home! DHL says I have a package waiting...
  12. Good to know, I'm maybe a quarter of the way into the second season and it has been hit or miss. Then again, most ST series stink up till season 3 too.
  13. Yes, I could be... (and I freely admit my abject failure at doing so - in my own defense I HATE that show, which is of course a kind of Heresy all it's own)
  14. Eh, do what the wife and I do, we trade movies - I choose and then she chooses. Only requirement is making it a date night and dressing for it. So in 20 years if you see two old codgers making out in the back of a theater you know who it is! Oh yeah - My wife already knows this movie is a lock in...
  15. Let me sum up the previous two movies... Cap - I'm a wimp! Now I'm Captain America and I'm Buff!!! Yippeee!!!! Thor - I'm Moody and stupid, now I'm still stupid and moody but I accept responsability for my moody stupidity... Avengers was a FAR better film then the other two (yes, I finally went to see it). Although it dragged in the middle, and I still say it went way overboard on the FX it did at least make Thor and Captain America interesting. I guess that just shows that Joss Whedon knows his stuff.
  16. which one? The original one on the pay tv channel, or the even worse one on the regular cable network channel? (they both stunk, but the pay TV channel was watchable)
  17. Interesting stuff, and quite a few references to Macross in there.
  18. I've watched in season 2 so far, it is OK but I would not say it is great.
  19. Yes, just watched the show so far. I'm not even up to date with that, I think I've seen up to episode 6 of season 2 so far. Looking forward to the books, but I've got a pile of about 20 still to read as well...
  20. I don't know what was on the air, but the group between Baltimore and DC had an extensive videotape library. I remember going down to that group a couple of times and being impressed with everything but "iyura yacksura" (I butchered the spelling, the really popular comedy show from mid to late eighties). The group is where I first saw the original DYRL and I bought CotB hoping to get an English version, boy was that a let down...
  21. OOOPS, my apologies, it has been so long since I lived in the Midwest that I forgot you good folks have no sense of humor...
