  1. Well if the cheaters are the ones hosting the tournament... also, some theories on those shadowy OP suits:
  2. That awkward moment when you realize you should have recognized those voices and didn't...
  3. Perhaps part of the "Gundam Needs Grit" crowd? Q: What was the version of Runner you guys used at the end of the episode?
  4. KIRA!! Look at the bottom of the task force list.
  5. Thanks to Area Seven's Police Story 2013 thread and the Jackie Chan movie collection I got for Christmas, I thought it was time for a thread for it. So the movies I got in the collection are as follows: Dragon Lord, Twin Dragons, Project A and Project A2, Armour of God, AoG 2: Operation Condor, Police Story III: Supercop and The Accidental Spy. Most of these I've seen before, albeit not in a long time and three of them, Dragon Lord, Twin Dragons and Project A2. Dragon Lord was interesting inasmuch as its one of Jackie's early movies. There's lots of classic Jackie goofiness but I can't help but feel that most of what happens in the movie doesn't have much to do with the actual plot. Note: I read about this movie long before I saw it in Jackie's autobiography where it says the movie starts off with Jackie sending a note to his girlfriend via balloon. Someone must have mistranslated because that scene doesn't happen until fully half-way through the movie and it was a kite and said girl wasn't even really Jackie's girlfriend. Go figure, eh? Twin Dragons was much more interesting. Jackie plays a dual role as twin brothers separated at birth. One is a world-famous pianist and conductor and the other is a street punk. Hijinx ensue and the two are mistaken for each other. Project A: A classic Jackie movie and a well put together period piece with one of his most well known stunts. I really have to wonder how much that clock tower fall hurt, including that he had to do it more than once. Armour of God: The movie that almost killed Jackie with a stunt that wasn't much of a stunt at all. If you pay attention, you'll see that early in the movie Jackie has short hair and then later has much longer hair... to hide the surgical scars. Operation Condor: Mistankenly labeled here in the States as the first movie in the AoG duology, Condor has to be one of my fav Jackie movies. My fav moment has to be in the wind tunnel when he yells "Superman!" and flies toward one of the bad guys and punches him. Haven't seen the others just yet.
  6. OK I caught the pre-airing of the first episode. Pretty typical except for one detail; how the protagonist finds himself in the mech cockpit. I'm interested enough to give it the standard five episode trial.
  7. I don't suppose that John Nadeau, Jordi Ensign or any of the other people at Dark Horse who worked on the X-Wing comics still work there? Their star fighters were amazing and they could probably draw great looking Valks.
  8. Considering Kawamori and Satelight had nothing to do with VVV, this seems like not a valid fear.
  9. Sounds like Macross 30 is 10 times the crossover this could even hope to be. The Robotech fans deserve better.
  10. Just when you think they've exhausted every cliche in a zombie movie, they decide to throw robots into the mix. Robots that look like a Zaku from Gundam and a Cylon had babies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=eVB-9Mgsx38 They also seem to be ripping off part of the plot to Resident Evil 5.
  11. Well, Gundam Musou 4 is out and looks pretty good. What do you guys think? Personally, I'm still more excited for Extreme Vs. FullBoost
  12. You're a dirty boy, Reiji. So yeah, another Macross alum huh? I know Aya Endo was Kinue Crosroad in 00 but that's about it.
