  1. I am really feelin the show right now. I haven't been this amped for a show in a long time. Hopefully the keep up with how everything is flowing so far and not drop off and some point. That would be disappointing but then again as long as i see valks in action i am in heaven. (with the exception of Macross 7 lol)
  2. As long as they make all the various valks with their special items like the sniper rifle i could care less who makes what at this point just as long as it's an amazing product
  3. He eventually helps Tony by taking over as Iron Man while Tony fakes his death in the comics. He takes one of Tony's armors called War Machine and assists Tony as War Machine after they repair their friendship from Tony faking his death. War Machine is gray and black Iron Man armour with missiles and machine guns mounted on it.
  4. I love the new cartoon. Despite what some say i think it is great. The nods to the original and the movie are outstanding. Just saw the garbage in, garbage out episode featuring wreck-gar. Voiced by Weird Al the show was entertaining and he said that he Dared To Be Stupid and used the universal greeting!! Can't wait to see what else they throw in. Plus the actor doing the voice of Ultra Magnus does a great Robert Stack impersonation.
  5. Another blog from my Myspace page Part II: Speed Racer Today I dragged my self against various bad reviews to bring to you my review of Speed Racer. Well...um....it isn't great, or really good, but it isn't bad either. I would mark it at okay. Really after the start of the movie season with Iron Man this is a sad follow up. This really is a movie for kids with some adult language but not much with the word ass used repeatedly and at one time Speed saying, "Get that weak s##t off my track." That made me chuckle I won't lie. The movie is visually sickening. It is bright and color full as the previews show and it takes a good minute to get used to it. The plot moves slow at the beginning and why is he driving the Mach 6??? Everyone knows it was always about the Mach 5. I guess in official races they have to have a certain type of car that the Mach 6 qualifies as and the Mach 5 is basically the drive around town vehicle; though it does shine rather well during the cross country race. It does eventually also get all the tricks, bells and whistles that we all have come to love from the cartoon. The cast is okay but the movie is very corny way to much. There are some cool fight scenes but nothing spectacular. Really all you do while sitting there for two hours is wait for the racing scenes. Wow that was the best part of the movie. They went all out to make the racing scenes great and high octane yet very unrealistic but most of us don't go to movies for realism. The jump feature on all the cars are used every 5 minutes but in very innovative ways, and the end race was a lot of fun. All in all I would suggest to sit this one out for the DVD. If you feel you have to watch a movie go watch Iron Man again until Prince Caspian comes out.
  6. I beg to differ, The Boondocks is just as funny if not funnier than the Ventures. I rate them as equals honestly. But yes this is one of the best things they have created next to Space Ghost Coast 2 Coast.
  7. No that was a previous suit
  8. Hmm. Valks Anonymous leads to Alcoholics Anonymous. Hi my name is Travis and I am a valkohol. Because i can't afford the high prices i turned to something cheaper and easier to access. Now i am addicted to both valks and alcohol. Alcohol helps me cope with the fact that i can't afford valks or the fact that i have destroyed my life buying them. After buying them i am happy but then more come and i am depressed so my friend Jack helps me with my sorrows. Man i live on the streets now and i smell like booze but my valk net worth is around 60 so i am happy lol.
  9. Or the Episode the Amazing Mr. Brisby, and how they were taking down the Brisby Empire. The best part other than Brock's and Molotov's fight was when Brock polevaulted a fence by jamming the pole in a guard's mouth while he was in mid sentence. Classic.
  10. You will regret those words lol, yes you will yes you will. I have a nice size collection ( and by nice size i mean small at only like 12 valks......for now) but i am constantly jonesin for more. After i buy one and display and pose it i look and think i need another. I am a huge max fan and finally obtained the 1/48 vf-1j max type and now i am thinking i need millia to compliment him. I didn't even like her valk that much (blue is my favorite color) but i am already makin plans to buy her, 2 SV-51, 2 VF-0s, another YF-19, and 2 YF-21s; and that list doesn't even include the new VF-1 1/60th line. And on top of all of this i am seperating from the military to go to film school in the fall so my income will drastically fall so nothing but top ramen for me but i will be Valk wealthy lol. Hmm a new phrase? Did i coin a new phrase? I hope so. May we all one day be Valk wealthy, screw everything else. Now we can ask people what their Valk net worth is.
  11. Since when did Sienna Miller be even considered a decent actress? There is actually talent and skill in this movie and she gets that role? All she is really known for is being with Jude Law.
  12. "You never told me bigfoot was a dude" - Brock "What's the matter Sampson, he doesn't have anything you haven't seen before."- Six Million Dollar Man (forgot his name) "Bigfoot is something i haven't seen before!!!!"- Brock Or Brock's love, Molotov Cocktease. Man I can go on about this show forever. Like when Race Banon died, or when they ran into Johnny Quest. This show is to great for words.
  13. Favorite show ever and i am constantly turning people on to it. My fav characters are the Monarch and Dr. Orpheus. They have the best dialoge. My favorite quote is "Don't go for the reach around" one from the trial of the monarch. Funny enough one of my many nicknames is King Gorilla which i picked up in Africa. I got the name because we were smoking and watchin the episode where the Venture Brothers were in a Scared Straight scene for supervillians and The Monarch traded Dean for a smoke to King Gorilla. I love this show. I am watching seasons one and two again during my lunch break with my friend, and now she is into it. Oh the Monarch's henchmen are funny as crap too.
  14. Actually Stark did want to do that. But then he found out about his company moving forward with weapons and got mad and decided to do things his own way. Plus he got sidetracked about his weapons being used to kill soldiers so he put everything on the back burner to make the new suits to take out his weapons. Stark Industries always has business, and I am sure he will move on with a different form of the reactor so that it does provide power but is not as advanced as the one in his chest.
  15. I think he believed it was without knowning the full power Stark actual had like when he blasted him from his chest. The Mark III suit has a lot more to it than even in the audience knew so Stane didn't know either. He just assumed it all
  16. I still have a vf-1j hikaru (rick hunter) MPC (Mastpiece Piece Collection to answer your question) and I do have some love for it as it was one of the very first macross/robotech toys I bought. It isn't bad but when you get your hands on a yamato you will leave your MPC in the box. The Yammies are better scuplted, more accurate, better accesories or add ons and are just simply beautiful. Yes the price tag is a little steep but one of those is better than most other things.
  17. you can always buy from an american business like lost and found toys, so that will still boost our economy so ha!!
  18. That was one of the best things too. I thought that they might try and stay away from his alchololsim but it was very apparent that he is a drunk in the film. It is one of the things that define him, he drinks and it comes back to haunt him and cause more problems than any of most of his rogue gallery could ever do. In a sense Stark is and always has been his own worst enemy. Just take a look at the Civil War he caused in the comics which led to the "death" of his best friend Steve Rogers aka Captain America.
  19. Hey that is to boost out economy not Japan's. Lol someone told me that when I said the exact same thing you did, but what better way to spend 600+ right?
  20. Have faith in Chris Nolan and his abilities. Everything I have read from Wizard magazing, to Superherohype, and everything in between says that it is being handled well. In the film he will be Harvey Dent the entire time till the end which allows for great character build up as opposed to a quick mentioning of his accident then him running around like a raving lunitc as Two-Face. I hated that. Also if they had stayed with any kind of continuity from the first two films Two-Face would have been Billie Dee Williams seeing as how he was Harvey Dent in the first few films. Joel Shumacher just doesn't understand Batman or most things and decided to completely ruin all that was good about the Bat. I would say his films were worse than the film with Adam West in it which is bad. "Robin, hand me the Bat Shark Repellent."
  21. Not really cause the trailer still focuses a lot on the Joker when the story is mainly about Harvey Dent slowly becoming Two-Face
  22. I think in the second one it should be like The Dark Knight where the story is about the rise of the Mandarin but there is another villian posing a threat. And yes he has to succumb to alcholism and have Rhody take over and go over board since they established he is more gung ho than Stark a lot. In the Dark Knight if you don't know it is about the creation of Two-Face and the Joker is just a force of anarchy that comes throughout the film. This has been said many many times already by the filmmakers. Then the third movie will be all about the Mandarin. Although we all know they probably won't go to the space rings, they will most likely be magical to keep the film more based on Earth like they did with Spider-Man 3.
  23. It was better than the original suit which was pieced together so yeah it was better in a sense.
  24. The Hulk, not necesarily a villian but he is sent to stop him a lot, hence his cameo in the new Hulk film. The Mandarin is the biggest villian. He uses magic rings and it a good counter balance to Starks technology. And he too is smart. Not as smart as Stark the only one smarter than him is Reed Richards, Mister Fantastic of the FF4
  25. Well Stane isn't dumb. Is is no where near as smart as Stark but he remade his suit so I am sure he would know how to work it. I read an early review where they said how would he know how to pilot the suit? Well after seeing the movie it is obvious, he made it using stark tech. That's like how would i know how to work something i made that is based off another design. I made it. Yes i want to see it again and stay behind for the credits. Also the movie has already made 35 mil domestic and 22 overseas and it isn't even Saturday yet, or at least not late enough for theaters to be open.
