  1. Worked for Captain America 2 when it premiered at the beginning of April of this year. Still, it's not coming till 2016; still more than a year away. I don't think most viewers will care considering it's still gonna be a long wait.
  2. It no longer needs to compete with Captain America 3. And we get it sooner. Warner Bros. Blinks in Marvel Showdown: ‘Batman v Superman’ Avoids ‘Captain America 3' Along with 9 other dates for unlisted movies.
  3. It would have been more acceptable to have toughed it out. There are plenty of other KS projects that sit there waiting till the end before saying "we tried and failed, but at least we tried." HG can no longer say that 'cuz they quit before the clock ran out. They forfeited the game at the 7th inning just because they were down a few (hundreds of thousand) points.
  4. Yep. I had a countdown clock and everything. The fault, dear Robotech fans, is not your stars, but in yourselves... Can't remember what they call abusive relationships where the victim keeps going back to the abuser. It might have been better if HG kept the KS going till the end and accept a noble defeat, but sadly no.
  5. I think after a decade, we get it. The RT super-duper fanboys will say anything. There's no point posting it here. Not like it hasn't been done before. After this long, it's not even funny. It speaks volumes as mentioned on previous pages. IIRC, Yune said the designs would make their way to Palladium @ SDCC. Whenever they get a chance. So fans can get their fill in RPG-format. We shall see. Hopefully, Creavision is trying to look for other work if they want to continue in this line of work. They should be whoring themselves out anyways. It's what these studios do. They go from one project to the next. It's what every FX groups does.
  6. RTSC made enough to warrant a sequel, which HG never capitalized on, according to Tom B. Not sure about the not-being-made-part because LLA came out and they wanted to do RTA so making new ("new") animated works would appear to be allowed by their deal with Macguire Ent/WB. Yes. Yes it does. If they allowed to fail on the clock, it would have been a respectable defeat. Could have said they tried but it didn't work. They should have tried to push for more press during this last week of funding, but nope. They killed it on their own so now they're quitters.
  7. You equate a studio downsizing their animation department cuz the head RETIRED to HG not being able to properly run and fund a Kickstarter?
  8. If anybody says that, I'd asked if they were sure they didn't forget to take their meds. You can only brag about it if you actually got that money, which they didn't since they never reached their goal. On top of that, they cancelled with 6 days left on the clock. "Proved that there is demand"??? If they reached their goal, it would have proved there was demand. But they didn't and they ended early due to lack of demand. Let's do the math with the numbers. So you averaged $6,949.07/day. On day 35, you would have $243,217.50. That's still below 50% of the goal. At that rate, it would have taken them ~72 days to reach their goal of $500,000. Some of the comments of the KS page are funny. Some think "Plan B" is to fund it themselves. If they didn't fund it themselves and resorted to KS to fund, how can "Plan B" be to fund it themselves? I need a glass of milk so I can squirt liquid out my nostrils as I laugh.
  9. If they ever make that kind of statement at their next convention appearance, someone should point out this KS. Failin' so hard they had to put it out of its misery. Quitters. They could have made it to $200,000 if they left it running for a few more days.
  10. Oh come on! They had 6 days left. They could have had a surge in donations at the end. You know, a whole extra $1 a day surge. I wanted to see that clock hit zero as they missed their mark. Now I'll never see that whimper. Now I can't be Cartman to HG's Scott Tenorman.
  11. It's a spectator-sport for us now. It's been 9 years since the case ended. We just sit back and eat the popcorn now. I think I was the 1st one to break out the popcorn when Hasbro got sued last year. So are the RT fans. Macross has gained a new fanbase and will do so when the next series comes out. RT's fanbase, well, is stagnant. Took someone long enough. I'll just quote this to reply to that thought. Speaking of Family Guy and this thought, I'm reminded of this:
  12. Until that 1st death happens. Let's not forget those FAA rules on that 10,000 ft max altitude. Oh, and those single occupant aircraft rules.
  13. Because people love staring at a train wreck. And it happens to be a train that everyone loves. And that train brings tons of cash it.
  14. That would be hilarious. I won't be surprised if the $1 and $2 backers pull out at the end. Most are probably there just to fill up the Comments page.
  15. Of course they'll do something. They'll release another boxset of DVDs. Regarding the KS comments page, they seem to be talking mostly about the licensing issues, and incorrectly at that. And they're still talking about it????
  16. That would mean they would have to admit some things. And that would mean someone would need to consider looking for a new job. Externally (i.e., to the public) that looks bad. And PR is about looking good, even when things look bad.
  17. It was the most talked about show last night apparently. ‘Sharknado 2’ Draws Syfy Record 3.9 Million Viewers
  18. So it's a Garfish with a big pointy thing on it and extra pods on the side. M'kay.
  19. Most licenses work by someone buys the rights for X-amount of money. Then, the licensee receives a small portion of the profits from whatever the licensor does with the property. BTW, Macguire Ent. and WB have 3 more years to do something with the property or lose the trademark (based on a 10-year renewal cycle). Keep in mind some studios buy up rights just to keep them from going elsewhere. On the subject of the KS: Oh come on RT fans, dig deeper! Empty those wallets! You still have a full week left. If Tommy and co. come back to any crowdfunding site, I would seriously consider reporting them for fraud on whatever site they use. This KS is on it's way to doom-vile. If they ask for money again from donors, that would be very very very suspicious.
  20. MechaCon doesn't have the number of people that SDCC had. SDCC was their big moment due to the size. SDCC has 130,000+ unique attendees (in 2013). AX has 80,000+ unique attendees (in 2013). MechaCon has somewhere around 5,000 attendees (based on 2012). And as Seto mentioned, anybody who has heard about the KS would have likely decided to pledged or not. SDCC was their big moment. And it looks like that failed to materialize anything.
  21. Crytek USA Collapses, Sells Game IP to Other Developers
  22. Trailer 2 from SDCC. No Youtube video yet. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/new-trailer-debuts-christopher-nolans-722320
  23. I'm still taking bets on the final amount. Only 8 days left to make a bet.
