Are we talking about Bandai Visual (Japan) or Bandai Entertainment (USA)?

Variable Fighter Master File VF-1 Valkyrie Vol. 1
azrael replied to sketchley's topic in Movies and TV Series
Actually, it first showed up in Chronicle #1. Strangely though, I haven't seen it reprinted in the many other VF-1 entries. -
Of course, I'm not expecting too much new stuff for the MF movies so I'm not expecting anything really new at this point. From the listings I've seen, the Chronicle is charted out till issue 50. But that may be an estimate from the distributor so I can't be sure about it.

Perhaps I should clarify.

Woohoo! VF-11C!. Meh. There's more???? And Woo hoo! VF-171 B-sheet?!?!?!?! My enthusiasm for Miho and Sally is mellowed by the fact that there's more Minmay. Are we done with her yet???? To suck people dry of Spiritia???? There's more????

Keep in mind, the "ADV" brand name is what shut down. The parent company of ADV Films, A.D. Vision sold all the assets and such to smaller companies and went out of business. ADV Films' licenses and holdings moved to 3 different companies. Here's a summary of what's happening: What's Happening with ADV Films

I expect zero fuss about the comics/printed media. If Disney stuck their hands in the Marvel cookie jar, the comic nerds and then some would raise hell about it. Although this does give Quesada more weight when he makes editorial comments like "it's magic". Of course, fans can now say he can stick Tinkerbell's magic wand up where the sun don't shine or what kind of magic pixie dust has he been sniffin'. I don't expect any problems for at least 10-15 years when expiring licensing agreements start coming into play.

Bandai 1/72 Scale Macross Frontier Model Kit Thread Ver.3
azrael replied to azrael's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
I sense some weight problems with the beam gunpod. -
That would be up to Marvel. IIRC, a few articles I've read have had Pixar meet with Marvel and as they said, "their eyes lit up". There's definitely an opportunity for Marvel to bring many Disney properties to printed media. It's just a matter of when. The issue is, Disney licensed out a few of their works to other places. Those licenses have to expire for Marvel to put them to use and vice versa. So it's just a matter of finding out who's got what and when they can get it all back.

Yeah. Unless Disney becomes extremely heavy handed and peeved with Joe Quesada, I doubt they will get involved with the comics. And on the flip side, The Incredibles will definitely join Marvel's printing line once the license with BOOM! Studios ends.

Bandai 1/72 Scale Macross Frontier Model Kit Thread Ver.3

Don't you know? Proper spelling and the 'Net don't mix. I'm sure somebody has already pointed out the typo to him. -
Unfortunately, all the existing licenses remain with their current parties. What I'm seeing most fans on the 'Net fail to remember is Disney owns Touchstone Pictures, Hollywood Pictures, and Miramax Films.

The computer and electronics super geek thread
azrael replied to Dante74's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Yes...so to speak. However, whatever gains you make with hyper threading, will be lost when you take a performance hit using HT on a P4. But this is only with a P4. You're emulating 2 cores on a single core system. -

TF2 and L4D do have multi-core support. Be sure to patch them and enable multi-core support in the game. Many newer versions of many programs are adding in multi-core support so you may wish to look for updated version of your programs. Did you try updating your drivers? -
Official Bandai 1/60 Scale DX Toy Thread Ver.6
azrael replied to Duke Togo's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
It is possible that it damaged at the factory, or in-transit to the the store, or the store opened it and damaged it. -
Then, let them believe it. No use trying to convince them otherwise. In honesty, the court docs are our "smoking gun". But as you said, they don't seem to have the patience to sit there and read it, let alone understand it. Legal documents are written such that they are interpreted as literal as possible, so that there's no room for misinterpretation. In doing so, there's a certain amount of vocabulary that would give most people headaches. But it's suppose to cover the bases so that's why it's written like that. When you sign documents for work or the bank and they're a page or more, in font size 10, Times New Roman, with several paragraphs, take a moment to read those documents and you'll understand. Honestly, most people won't read those documents. As I understood it, they were showing RT:SC at the Cannes Film Festival to shop for a distributor (the Cannes Marketplace), not looking for awards. The Marketplace is a fairly common venue for studios looking for independent works to market.

The computer and electronics super geek thread

Visually, Snow Leopard is about the same as Leopard. Most of the work to Snow Leopard was under-the-hood. Much of the code has been optimized for Snow Leopard. They no longer support PowerPCs. They've also removed a lot of legacy support for various devices. Because they've removed things, optimized a few others, you should see more space on your hard drive after installing 10.6. However, your mileage may vary. If you want to switch to 64-bit, hold down the "6" and "4" keys while booting. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3773 -
They may be experiencing technical difficulties at the moment.

The listings I've see span to issue 50. We're only on #30. So anything is still possible. I won't worry to much about the coloring. It's just part of a growing list of typos.

Primary: Firefox Secondary: Opera, Google Chrome I stopped using IE back when Firefox was still in the 0.x. -
And I care what they yap about... why? Nah, they need a "mentor"-type character for Lick Hunter to go emo about when he dies. What? Make her more whiny than they already did? Nah, they'll just move Britai's eyepatch to the other side of his face. See different. Or better yet, they'll just combine Britai and Kyron into 1 character. It would probably look somewhere in-between a F-14, a F-22, a VF-1, and a YF-24. Oh wait...I just described the YF-24 Evolution....

WTF!! A new Battlestar Galactica film is in the works??!&
azrael replied to taksraven's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Let me ask a question. What are the chances that Singer will actually go through with this production? Could it be handed off to someone else if he decides to not go through with it. I read last week (maybe it was Superhero Hype or Dark Horizons) that Bryan Singer likes to start lots of projects but whether or not something will actually get green-lit normally is the $10M question. As I understand it, there's rumors that he's been approached for Wolverine 2.
