    I was hoping for a realistic head sculpt of Captain Carter as well. I didn't know about the joints. I held off on the Cloud & Fenrir pack. I didn't like the joints. But kept putting it off. Now I was thinking get the re-release in a few months. I really just want a statue of Cloud, Tifa, and the Fenrir from Advent Children. It would be expensive though. Or good figures. I still have the small figures from the original game.

    My first thought was that since they make big Harleys that it shouldn't be much of a problem. Although I don't really like Harleys. Too big and loud. But anyway, they could adjust the sides so it's not that low to the ground. Then, I remembered this video I saw some years ago. They have a bunch of crash videos around that turn.

    If anything these Robotech Archive books will be like when I got the Robotech Art books back when I was a kid. Those were a big deal to me back then even though they were paperback. I didn't learn that they made limited hardcovers until the 2000s. But those Art books were glossy and had all the episodes and sketches. It was just cool to see all of that stuff. They were some of the earliest large scale books I ever purchased.

    Yeah I'm not Parker and eating any of that stuff.

    Yeah but I love seeing movies. The most recent one which can really upset viewers is The Empty Man. I don't want to spoil it if you haven't seen it. Definitely worth watching though.

    That Cloud looks really good. I want to see the full team though. I'm not crazy about the Play Arts Kai figures. I thought Prime 1 Studio was making statues but that doesn't seem to be happening. Although there is still time since the Remake isn't complete yet.

    Maybe I'm just noticing more of these sporty trikes with flashy paint jobs. When I see them I think who would want that over a motorcycle? Then I think since they are making those, why not a Garland design? What's stopping them?

    Those fights are awesome. It's the norm to make fun of Star Trek now. But that show will never die. Buffy has some classic fights too.

    I took a look at Skyline since we are talking about it. I've seen far worse. I'm talking stuff on Syfy and the old FearNet channel. The opening starts with a few good shots. But it's also a bit unneeded like the opening in that blind man movie that just received a sequel. At first I thought this was going to be a garbage college kid type story. It felt like a first time filmmaker project for the first quarter or so and I thought it might get worse. However, it's pretty good in the middle sections. It reminded me of Night of the Living Dead. Of course not as good but still that section is the best part of the movie. If only they resisted the urge to setup a series or re-watched Night of the Living Dead, the original or remake, this might be a better movie. Skyline is set for a sequel or like a comic book with the ending. Something at the ending felt straight out of a videogame. And I hate it when people say a movie is a videogame movie. Because people like that are lessening both videogames and movies. Like videogames are bad and a movie that's like a videogame is one of the worst things. But I had to rewind a scene at the ending a few times because of one shot. I was thinking what are they doing?! Then I couldn't believe it. Yes they did do that. Maybe the sequels will complete the story and make the first one better. But I always think you should make a movie based on only one entry. And this movie alone will make you think what did you just watch at the end. Few good directors would do something like that to the audience. Especially since when Skyline was originally released it would take seven years for the sequel. Plus it's far from a good cliffhanger like in Empire Strikes Back. Overall, Skyline is not the worst movie but far from the best. I've seen most of the cast in other movies and TV shows. They do a good job with what they are given. The directors are effects guys and haven't directed anything since. But Skyline is better than Alien vs Predator 2 which was so dark at times I couldn't tell what was going on. It's also better than The Predator which is true garbage. Like the guy who was actually in the original Predator didn't understand they not only made a good B movie but a classic with the original. I wouldn't watch Last Jedi again because that's just an unforgivable movie. But I wouldn't watch Skyline again either. I will watch the sequels though. I read a bit of wiki on the sequel and watched almost an hour as I was curious how it starts after that ending. And yeah, they didn't really plan this that well as they couldn't even get some of the actors to reprise their roles. But I'll finish the sequel which is ok so far and the third one some time in the future.

    I still haven't finished all the Zillion episodes yet. But I only knew Zillion originally from the old Sega Master System game. I think that was the first Metroidvania type game I ever played. Possibly before the original NES Metroid. But I didn't think Apple would be more popular than Kei and Yuri. I mean one anime series versus a Dirty Pair TV show, OVA series, and feature film. Another thing, I wonder why there isn't a Garland style motorcycle in real life yet? I'm seeing a lot of three wheels, two in the back, one in the front, hybrid motorcycles more often. I guess they are safer because they have three wheels.

    I was going to get all three during Black Friday.
  12. JetJockey
    Thanks, I can't remember seeing that one before.
  13. JetJockey
    No one seems to want to make figures of the old anime characters. I'm surprised we got a Zillion Apple figure a while back. I don't know how that happened. Yet no Minmay, original Dirty Pair, Eve, Priss, or others yet. Can you post a picture of the secret poster?

    Skyline is worse than The Predator and Last Jedi? The Predator is a shocking piece of crap. And Last Jedi is a pointless Star Wars movie that I reviewed around here. But you know I have to see Skyline now that it is somehow worse than those two. At least Brittany Daniel is in it. She was in a really crude Friday the 13th slasher knock off called Club Dread. I'm in no rush to see Skyline though. I'll probably watch the whole series at once. I see Rhona Mitra is in the third one. People hate Doomsday but I thought she was awesome in that. Doomsday has that shot from Aliens. The director loves those movies. I've seen some terrible movies before. So however bad Skyline is, it won't be anything new. The directors and producers just had people that wanted to support them. Prometheus is probably what happens when you have multiple writers and a director that wanted to tell a different story. Still a really good looking movie and a better exploration movie than all three recent Star Trek movies.

    I heard Southern Cross was cancelled but it still feels complete to me in Robotech. I just watched this video from a Megazone 23 post. I'll continue to say my favorites in Robotech are Southern Cross and New Generation. I need to hurry up and watch Orguss.

    All these rip off and alternate songs are upsetting me. Anyway, I believe I saw that book posted before in this topic. But it's just Part 1 right? Any pull out posters in there? I lean towards thinking that Parts 2 and Part 3 are the best. But I still want Eve singing posters from all three parts. I only have the one so far from the Megazone 23 box set that was released in the US a long time ago. I would go after singing cels but posters should be far easier.

    I think what I would like to do is whatever new movie or old movie I haven't seen for Friday or Saturday. The rest only the favorites. Hopefully get to the point where it's just new releases to see. And I still haven't seen Skyline yet. I heard it wasn't good. I believe it was by the director that made the second really bad Alien vs Predator movie. But it's space aliens so I still wanted to check it out. I think I read a third or fourth one was coming out soon. I'm probably one of the few people that doesn't like Independence Day. So I find it funny when somehow people are able to make a movie worse than that.

    The teaser trailer is enough for me. We'll see what one of the siblings brings with this Matrix. Visually they are cool movies. But they went downhill after the first one and The Animatrix.
  19. JetJockey
    In an ideal world, I would just watch favorites all the time. Southern Cross, Mospeada, Blade Runner, Tron, Goonies, Predator 1-2, Terminator, Indiana Jones 1-3, Star Wars Original Trilogy, favorites in the Bond series. The list goes on. It would be like Howard Hughes watching the same movies all the time. Or one of those fashion designers that said he watches Connery Bond movies all the time when they are in the islands.

    Ghost in the Shell will be on IMAX starting September 17th. Select IMAX theaters. I would go if not for this virus situation that still isn't over.

    Zendaya watches Harry Potter every day. https://www.instagram.com/p/B08bdqEgsT3/ https://hellogiggles.com/news/zendaya-harry-potter/ This sounds like me when I was a kid. I would wear out many movies and scenes like Max's scene in Macross DYRL and the opening of Battle of the Planets.
  22. JetJockey
    Why only one? Seems like some focus group test. Like the one movie or video game you would take to an island or something. I would probably take a movie that never gets old. That is fun. That has a lot of different environments. Something like a Mospeada or Robotech New Generation movie if it existed. That has singing. Snow, desert, beach, space, and other environments. Heist episode. Adventure. Something like that. I struggle to think of one movie that has all that right now.
  23. JetJockey
    These two. Either from Kotobukiya or Hot Toys. It would be easier for Kotobukiya. Diana in a normal uniform and the black variant shown here. Glasses. A slightly damaged variant with the spoiler of her character. I would take one from Hot Toys. But V would be a real stretch for them.
  24. JetJockey
    I was waiting for Hot Toys to do more Aliens characters. Doesn't seem like it's going to happen. I've seen that site before though. They come up with some good customs.
  25. JetJockey
    That's an interesting picture. I have a few Alien books but I can't remember that image. I might have to search for that Giger book.
