Any pics wolfx?

Borders dunno. From other pics I saw, the bottom cap that screws on normally is replaced. So the normal cap is like the Darth Maul Battle Damage Limited Edition saber, with the emitter crystal (or whatever it's called) showing, from when Obi-wan cut Maul's saber in two. This screws off and is replaced with a cap that screws into both bottoms of two darth maul lightsabers. There's holes near the center most likely to let the sound through, from the sound module.

Heh, it was genetics. Luke was doomed to angst like daddy. I liked Hayden Christenson as Anakin. He played the part well enough in my eyes, the problems lie more with Lucas' script and directing. Lucas: "I want you to act like Keanu Reeves. That man can act!" [says in his creeky voice, sounding like an old man in a middle-aged man's body]

He had children. Just after Empire and Raiders of the Lost Ark and before Jedi and Temple of Doom, he both adopted a child and divorced his wife. Now, this is just a lame theory of mine and some might find it offensive that I am psychoanalyzing this guy from afar, but the result of these life events was Short Round and Ewoks. And it's a long, ever accelerating downward slide of pratfalls, fart jokes, and pandering to pre-teen children ever since. . . H 342358[/snapback] Psychoanalysis is crap. But yeah, having kids tends to screw you up. Unless you're the kind of parent that is a bad parent and lets your kid do whatever they want, and get away with everything. You smoke in the same room as them, you let them drink, you let them watch you have sex with the next door neighbor's wife, and the husband too. In which case, you wouldn't have ewoks owning the emperor's legion of best troops. Or gungans... *shudder*

Totoro that's a crapass tiny picture. Need a bigger picture to read anything on there. Or maybe I'm just old and hard sighted...

I've heard good and bad about Parks. And after reading about the MPP cameraflash incident, I'm not giving him my business. I'd love to get a Larbel Obi-wan EL. Too bad I got into collecting these late. I'm holding out on searching out an Obi-wan TPM/AOTC EL in the hopes that MR will release an FX, or a stunt-saber. The price of an Obi-wan TPM/AOTC replica is a bit prohibitive for me. $400+ is a bit too rich for my wallet. Let us know how the Obi-wan EE is Chowser! That's so cool you're getting it!

Obi-wan AOTC/TPM FX lightsaber. Want. Need. Must have. Dunno when they'll do it, but they'd be flushing money down the toilet if they didn't! I hope they do a Qui-gon Jinn FX lightsaber. I don't like green blades all that much, but I like the handle. Less so than the Obi-wan, but it seems like a good dueling handle. Nice and clear, with few things jutting out of it. They would have to alter it so that it doesn't have the deep ridges, but then again they could do it with less problems to the overall look than with the Mace Windu or Luke ROTJ, or Obi-wan ROTS FXs.

Seagal was self proclaiming himself to be the latest reincarnation of buddha for a bit... And now he's fat, old, and even more wooden than before. He ranks far worse on my list than Keanu Reeves. And Van Damme is a retarded druggy. Everyone laughs at him when he's interviewed on tv because he says funky stuff.

Wal Mart: Episode III - Revenge of the Topic Strayers

Nice on the Anakin buy with CS discount! Oh, you getting one of those Luxeon blades? Let us know how it is when you get it!

THere's a sale going on today on the Master Replicas website. Nothing super spectacular. But most of the minis have been price dropped by $10. Also the Anakin ROTS LE has been dropped from $369 to $269 with free shipping and handling for the US. Just an FYI for anyone that's interested.

It would take some slight tweaking to do. But it could be really freaking cool. You know that most of the colony is screwed. Who knows maybe a character or two might make it off the planet and escape. Or do an alternate replacement story for Alien 3. Rather than kill off Hicks and Newt, continue the story and skip the prison planet crap. Have it be kind of like in those books that were based on an old script for Alien 3, where they make it back to Earth only to find out that the aliens were brought back and escaped before they could make it back. They could do a different Alien Versus Predator film. Predators go hunting aliens for trophies. Things screw up and go bad, they crashland on a planet with a colony of humans that are trying to get the hell off because something similar to LV426 is happening, and the aliens are wiping them out. Predators start hunting everything, and steal the ship the humans were going to use, and get the hell off the planet, leaving the humans to die. Subtitle the predators when they talk in their language. Put in the stuff that made the old movies good. Moody, dark, creepy, and leaving much to the imagination. None of this IN YOUR FACE, overly cg, super-matrix action, hard rock crap.

LowViz you should play zombie mod for Counterstrike Source. The terrorist team are zombies that can only use knives. But they have 500hp, and fast regeneration. Even if the teams are even at the beginning of a round, it's always a bloodbath with the counter-terrorists panicking, running all over the place, and getting swarmed. You may start out with a para with 300 rounds of ammo and a deagle, but the ammo goes by quickly. When the zombies are bot controlled, they're stupid and can't plan ambushes while someone is running from the horde. When there are human controlled zombies, no place is safe. It's suspenseful when you're playing on a dark map, like dracula, and you're the last human left, and there's a horde of zombies that are out for your blood. Even if you're sticking with a group, things get hairy. It takes 4 direct awp hits to the head in a row to take down a zombie, and most people don't have the nerves and skill to get four hits in one after another. It's worse when the server is set to anti-camp. Where if you camp in high spots, like boxes, your guns get thrown away from you, and if you stay still, you get slapped across the server and lose like half your life. As for Alien 5. Give me Alien 5: Contamination Earth. Ignore the events of Alien 3 and Ressurection. Have a story where the aliens get down onto earth and start to take over and kill everyone and everything. The only safe havens are colonized planets (which have closed their doors to earth ships), space stations, and colonies on the moon. Earth and everyone that doesnt get off is doomed. And whats worse are the people that are evacuating with people who are hosts to embryos. Have the story follow some last survivors who are trying to get their way off the planet and survive the roaming hordes of aliens who come at night, in the darkness.

With all the prequal stuff lately, Mel Brooks should make Spaceballs Episode Zero. Citizen Kane the remake needs Jay and Silent Bob in it also. And Kane has to be played by Will Smith since it is a remake. Or Vingh Rames. It also needs a predator in the movie, but not one of those pussy predators from AVP, but a mean one that doesn't take poo from nobody. Or get Mel Gibson to play Kane. Also need to get a part for Quintin Tarantino and Cheech Marin in the movie. Yeah needs phased plasma pulse rifles, rpgs, sonic electronic ball-breakers, nukes, knives, and most importantly... Sharp sticks. Oh yeah, Kane has to be a half-vampire, zombie virus-infected, cybernetic organism, drug using gangster. In every scene he has to be sucking on a cigar, a cig, or weed.

This movie needs zombies that run! And the guvernator! Or something close to the guvernator. It also needs Liam Neeson in a badass role. And lots of gore. Needs a chainsaw. And lots of moral dilemmas without it having to be pc where if the person kills an innocent person they have to die (or making so that the person gets killed off because it is revealed that they are a meany). Oh and over the top cg. The entire movie has to be filmed with blue-screen.

What someone should start doing is taking a crapass movie and try to remake it into something good or cheesy. Try to remake Event Horizon into something good. It had potential but turned out to be crap. I'm for aiding in a remake of Citizen Kane. Can I be a script writer?

edit: removed crap, got picture working

I got my Minmay and Hikaru for about $30-35 at Mandarake Shibuya. Although Hikaru is missing his hair and has his helmet. Slightly bugs me, but I was hunting for Minmay be it the original release or the convention one.

Gankutso and Last Exile were awesome. 340010[/snapback] Last Exile looks like "Precious Moment" figurines turned into anime characters. With designs like that I'd be hard pressed to like it even if the story and characters were wonderful (which is not something I've seen in modern anime). Gankutso is positively obscure. Did you spell it right? I can't find any sites about it. 340168[/snapback] Gankutsuo. Anime adaptation of The Count of Monté Christo. God the French narration at the beginning of each episode is so horrible. I couldn't help cracking up laughing when I heard it. What's wrong with elitism? What do you want instead? Anime socialism? Anime communism? Anime anarchism? I don't get what's with the hatred of elitism. Would you rather have an anarcho-syndichalystic commune? Ooooh, look some lovely mud...

AgentOne if the dub turns out to be bad, go ahead an carry out your original plan. I refuse to say they're doing somethign right until it's proven. HG has a crap track record in my eyes, and ADV has a poor track record as well. It's very dangerous putting those two together, they can't handle a dub, I don't trust them. I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt by not lighting any torches or brandishing any pitchforks, yet. I say patience. I got a bad feeling on the dub, but I'll wait to see if it's bad before I unleash the monkeys that fling poo.

you probably offended 50% of americans with that 339987[/snapback] DeathHammer! High Five! They should allow gladiator sports where people really tear each other open and get killed. It's stupid, mindless, violent, and there would be so many stupid people that would think it couldn't be real, they'd watch it (these would be the same people that think Pro-wrestling is real). Don't go for these fake-ass sports that are excuses for violence like American Football and Hockey. They should get rid of the balls, and just play team on team, last team standind. For hockey, forget the puck and just beat the crap out of each other with sticks. "Football" is soccer in the rest of the world, it makes more sense to me. At least boxing is straight forward. Punch the crap out of each other until one or both of you go down. Occasionally getting an ear bitten off... Pissing on the tastes of strangers is part of the American way. Another part for a different group is to guzzle the piss of strangers and diss the other Americans for pising on the tastes of strangers. Then yet another group is standing on top of all the others and pissing down on everyone, laughing, LAUGHING!!!! [holds up sign: I'm being sarcastic] And now for something completely different [takes meds]: The end of the world will come in 2012 when the Mayan calendar resets, and the zentraedi bombards the planet's surface. Then the zentraedi will crashland and think it's safe. BUT. The left-over energy from their weapons and the earth's soil will cause the dead to rise from their graves, and a zombie horde will take over the surface of the earth. And there will be zentraedi super-zombies. And all will perish, consumed by the horde. Seriously though, there's a lot of stupid people out there, and I'll piss on their tastes, particularly if I've met them. And I'm serious about bringing back gladiator bloodsports. A great way to weed out the gene pool.

OMG THE EYES MOVE!!!! I never noticed it before. Freaked the poo out of me. Yes lots of people are poor on their reading. I remember in high school that half of my Senior English class read like retarded five year olds. Having people read out lines from Macbeth was utter torture... What's worse is that these morons that could barely read all graduated...

It's not that all new anime is bad. It's that the morons in Dean's club refuse to even try to watch any older anime. When you restrict yourself to only the new, you avoid classics. It's like watching only the newest movies and skipping older good movies. Gankutsuo is a new anime I like. I like Azumanga Daioh. I like Macross Zero. Yes there's a lot of bad old anime that's got crappy animation. Some of us are bitching about how flat and cheap looking some new animation is. Too many bright inappropriate colors in some cases. Or too much bad cg mixed into the animation. I keep my eyes open for new good stuff. But I'm not going to watch crap like Naruto.

Hey look HG blows monkey sacks! But we all already knew that. Hey look ADV and HG are in bed together, I wonder what kind of bastard spawn they'll drop from their crotches... HG has the continuity of a time paradox. Yes, no, it happened, it didn't, we have, we don't have, uh... Here's a man with pink skin and action-figure hips. Problems with translating things. You can and do lose the sense of things, especially for words and phrases that don't exist in other languages. Like there's no equivalent for the multipurpose word"f*ck" in French. Jokes and poetry die in translation. Then you have the big thing of "okay now that this title is translated, let's hand the translation over to a team of retards that know jack about anything, and let them rewrite the translation so it'll be cool, hip, pc, and be minty fresh". You can get retarded translators that change dialogue because, "oh it sounds cooler this way to have Akane Tendo call Ranma a pussy". Hearing the English dub for Saint Seiya (not the cartoon network hacked up version) by ADV was horrid. Especially all the little things they added to make it sound "cooler". I fear for the future of Macross. Mari Iijima doesn't mean the dub will be any good. I will hold off final judgement until everything is done and over, but until then... I have a bad feeling about this... (yes Star Wars quotes work for everything! HAHA! )

Melodrama is fine. They could achieve a lot in Patlabor I and II, with great animation and great action sequences. A number of the old action anime had dialogue while people stand still between the fights. I am loathe to use this example (because it's a crap anime), but Dragon Ball Z is 50% people bulging, twitching and spazzing out while standing still talking about how their power-penis is bigger than the other person's power-penis, and that their ejaculation-level is rising. Saint Seiya, a classic that's famous the world-over, except the US (because the US didn't jump on it while it was hot), there's a lot of action. But, they stop and talk. Newer is Rurouni Kenshin. Main story arcs, there's action, but they always stand still for a bit to talk. Don't get me started on adaptations of manga to anime. I hate filler stories, because 99% of the time they're crap. Since anime is more mainstream now, there's a lot more awareness of other titles now. Good god, there's an anime about MAKING BREAD!!!! I'm thankful that everything that is released in Japan isn't dumped into the west. If you want crap cg mecha, I nominate Gankutsuo. I love this anime adaptation of The Count of Monté Christo, but the wannabe Escaflowne-ish mecha done in horrible cg just ruined some scenes in it. The anime has a unique animation style, I didn't like it at first, but it was a refreshign departure from the norm.
