2 PICS of EGM's Robotech: Invasion preview.
bsu legato replied to UN Spacy's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Am I the only person who thinks that this game does not even take place on Earth? Maybe this is the Sentinels game we've waited so long for! -

I wasn't really that bothered by the art work. I was just irked by the "Studio Yune." Does this guy really believe his own hype? <_ -
The WWE and Pro-Wrestling Thread
bsu legato replied to areaseven's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Naw, I bet Kane will be back with his mask the next time we see him. His "unmasked" storyline will be typical of every other angle that WWE has tried in the past year or so. It will be quickly buried and forgotten, and the status quo will be preserved. Oh yeah, HHH will still be champion. That's part of the status quo too. -

"cannon" is a mounted gun for firing projectiles "canon" is the works of an author that have been accepted as authentic -

Yeah, I think I'm going to be sick. :puke: So why are we looking at a Meltran? I thought the new game was New Gen based. Somehow I doubt she'd fit on a Cyclone. -
Master Replica's new FX Lightsabers
bsu legato replied to Chowser's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Yeah, the FX editions are definitely "beefed up" compared to the actual props. I've yet to see one, but I'm betting the FX sabers are proportioned much like the Kenner sabers. -
I want my landmate, dammit!

You know...they should just ignore HHH and his title from now on. He can't wrestle if nobody challenges him, right? -
Master Replica's new FX Lightsabers
bsu legato replied to Chowser's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Theforce.net has some pictures up of what I asume are prototypes. Yes, these are the same as the Anakin FX saber, although I thought that the Luke RoTJ saber looked wayyyyyy too chunky. On a related topic, I've seen that Master Replicas has the classic Obi Wan saber from ANH, in both weathered condition (as seen in Ep IV) and in "new" condition as soon to be seen in Ep III! Can we say "sweet?" -
Super-Scale Robotech VF-1 Veritech statue

Just as long as you don't plan on getting out of your cruiser. Take it from me, that stuff is ok to walk around in but sitting is not an option. -
What is the significance of human skull in aliens?

They broke up sometime after Joan of Arc tanked at the theaters. -
Well said, Mr March. I wish there were some more recent VF-1 battroid line art to compare with, since that one picture that everybody has posted in this thread has those impossible dimensions that drives us so nuts in the toy forum. A better comparison would be to show a 1/48 Valk next to the CGI VF-0. I also have a sneaking suspicion that the VF-0 represents the VF-1 as the Froating Head would design it today, a sort of "do over" if you will. Now Kawamori's not just going to chuck out the classic VF-1, so instead we get a VF-0.

Did he marry Milla, presumably after he directed her in Resident Evil? Now I hate him even more! Ah well, I'm sure it will last as long as any other Hollyweird marriage. -

Shush, you! Paul Anderson is...is...well, he's a hack. There, I've said it. -
The Return of the Longest Thread?

The Longest Thread is a myth. It's a figment of your collective imaginations. *waves hand* This is not the forum you're looking for. Move along. -
Super-Scale Robotech VF-1 Veritech statue

Naw...I'd want a functioning GU-11 chambered for .22LR! -
I wonder if there's even a remote chance that we'll see a domestic release of Sentinel someday. Then again, I doubt most Wing fans even have the attention span to read a book, no matter how many pictures it has.

A7, you forgot the best part of the show: Goldberg nearly falling on his ass during his entrance. -
Super-Scale Robotech VF-1 Veritech statue
bsu legato replied to VF-0S FAN's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
For that price, I'd have expected it to have a sculpt comparable to the 1/72 Hasegawa battroid, and be twice as poseable. And it would have to take out my garbage and do my taxes. -
It's not Citizen Kane, but Spriggan is still good mindless fun. Much better than most "real" action movies Hollywood makes these days.

What is the significance of human skull in aliens?
bsu legato replied to NERV's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
The alien in Alien 3 wasn't always a dog/alien hybrid. Originally they filmed a whole sequence with a "superfacehugger," an animatronic oxen and a chestburster, but when they went on to film scenes with a live ox they found it wouldn't do anything but stand there! Hence, the scenes were hurridly reshot with a trained pooch and the rest is history. You know, so much stuff was cut from A3 that I'm curious how it would have originally turned out. Considering that David Fincher went on to film much better movies, it's possible that some of his talent was left on the editing room floor. There was a actually a sequence where they caught the alien, and later that crazy guy (who seems to serve no real purpose in the final version of the film) goes and frees it again. We're supposedly getting a "workprint" of A3 in that huge 9-disc box set that's on it's way. I doubt these scenes will make A3 a great film, but it might make a crappy film...less crappy? -
Actually, I should retract my :yoshi: smilie. Drifands poll has three (3) choices, whereas Graham said it'll be a "win win" situation. To me, that says two of the three scenarios will come true, leaving the third out in the cold. So any bets as to what we'll see? 1) FAST packs and GBP 2) plain jane and FAST packs 3) plain jane and GBP or worst case scenario 4) Toynami steals Macross license from Yamato and shoves MPC crappiness down our throats.

Gee...I wonder what that could mean.

Well, technically the legs do come off and reattach. Yamato merely omitted the transfer system.

What is the significance of human skull in aliens?
bsu legato replied to NERV's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Very true. I guess my main beef is the way the later costumes are designed. When they made the original suit, Gieger was very specific about giving it his trademark biomechanical look. The audience has no idea what all the details on the costume are, but they definitely look like something. The ALIENS suits, while simplified for ease of movement of the performers, follow that same design with the exception of the creature's head, which is essentially the first film's head without the transparent dome. But Alien 3 and 4 discarded that look, or just dumbed it down considerably. The aliens don't have anything remotely resembling the detail of the first two films, but instead look like a goopy mass of hamburger. It's like the costumers were working from nothing but blurry stills from the first two movies when they designed the costumes for 3 and 4.
