  1. I just finished re-watching the original SDF Macross as a primer for Mac Zero and I have to say how well it holds up in comparison to a lot of new anime that has come down the pipeline the last couple of decades. Unfortunately, as I was rewatching it, certain visual cues made me think of those damn RT songs they used instead of the awesome original soundtrack. Anyone else have that problem? I guess having first seen Macross as part of RT spoiled it for me.

    For some reason, the scene where Hikaru saves Minmay in mid-air is very affecting.

    That scene definitely stuck with me after I saw it again. I think for me it was because there was no music. It was just the wind going by and Minmay falling and Hikaru and his valk going after her.

    I would like to see a side story OAV that takes place during Space War 1

    I'm still waiting for an OAV set during Space War II. :p

  2. Did you name him that after the movie?

    Yes, but don't tell my wife that. When we found out we were having a boy I presented her with a list of names that I liked, almost all of them being of fictional characters from movies, books, and anime. Like Roland, Hikaru, Tenchi, Luke (Luke, Iam your father), Max, etc. and somewhere in that list was (action) Jackson. I think it was the only name we could actually agree on.

  3. Thanks for the help guys. Now I have another problem...where's episode 4??? :angry: Can I just skip to five because this is getting annoying. A1: Carl Weathers owns, of course, but I actually used that handle because my son is name Jackson. Any relation to eighties action movies with references to BBQ ribs is purely coincidental.

  4. Once again I am openly going to state I know Sid Meier Personally, ahve betatested every game since Civ3, and given my artistic insight on units and maps, etc.

    Are you trying to make us jealous? Because its working. Why not send all MWers a complimentary copy of Pirates since you're chummy with your bud Sid :p:ph34r:

  5. Just came back from it with my wife. If you like horror or scary movies in general GO SEE THIS! If you didn't like the Ring you may say "meh". That doesn't really qualify though since the pacing on this movie is different. I'd say the pace is more like a rollercoaster. Don't let Buffy's presence in the movie put you off either, she carries the movie pretty well. My .02.

  6. I like the fact that the story will continue from Superman 2 and completely forget 3 and 4,

    Yes, we'd all like to forget 3 and 4. I'm embarrassed (sp?) to say I've even watched those. Anyway, supposedly they pick up 6 years after two. I'm wondering how they're going to explain Supes just falling off the planet like that for 6 years. Justice League fighting intergalactic menace?

  7. let's see, bad cartoons...hmm...

    5. the orginal gi joe...there, I said it. Come on, all those laser (?) blasts and no one gets hurt! Ever! Everyone just bails out in the nick of time??? Oh wait there was that time Duke almost died, but that was when they introduced that whole Cobra-La-la land thing and it totally went down the toilet

    6. Extreme ghostbusters

    7. That other ghostbusters show from the 80s with the gorilla
