  1. as long as he makes enough to bank role Alita II (please!!!!!!)
  2. all valid points. The gold armor was... it was funny (hilarious AF) in the singing episode... but seeing that as away attire, i swear someone on the production staff are closeted fans of FIVE STAR STORIES, so much gold.... Oh I leveled up. Does becoming a Pineapple Eater mean i have to start making my Dex saves more often?
  3. Watched Episode 3... the only dislike is the gold bling these particular Klingons wear. Other than that, very good episode. Anyone wants to guess that Ortega leaves Star Fleet (as opposed to normal way Red Shirts leave)?
  4. hmm... is that a IRL aspect of how drones are used in services (like the Globe Hawk)? or this a SYB2202 rational: They literally don't have the crews to fully man those Class-D ships...?
  5. Seto: Where is it stated that the Destroid Cheyenne II's on the MQ and ME-class ships are drone/slaved to a Fire Control system on the ships?
  6. when Macross Frontier was being made, was it the 2nd Iraq war that was the source of some of those ideas around PMC troops? or was it the mercenary contractors made infamous during that war that caught the MF writers's eye?
  7. I skimmed through MF Eps1 and was disappointed. It seemed even more edited than the version i seen on disc or the original 'debew version' i 'acquired' from possibly here... actually i think someone back on the boat got it and i copied the file, eons ago. I have not actively looked for macross on Roku. Is Macross actively blocked on various sources?
  8. That means, in theory, The Squire episode won't happen later, once TOS starts (which is fine, there's been enough Time follies enough to Justify it). Ill wait patiently for that information on those ships appear on Ex Astris Scientia - Bernd Schneider's Star Trek Site My wife (who is NOT a Trekkie in any form otherwise) would disagree that S3E2 was boring
  9. Here's a idea about the UNMC: Are they supposed to be ground-based ie Destroids and Regults?
  10. Maybe so but that personality flaw is nothing compared to Jimmy Swaggart (who also passed this week, to the delight of many). Condolences to the Shooter estate, at least.
  11. *raises hand* When, in terms of what episode, does Deedra get that file (dealing with Death Star). Was this detail in the story one of those force Choked devices that occurred because Andor was compressed from 4 or 5 seasons to 2?
  12. What's worse? It wasn't an April Fool's Joke. it's legit. Now i can understand WHY Catalyst did it (a blantant Fly Paper trap for GW players). That seems a bold strategy... I just... I hope politics (financial or otherwise) helps slow the idea down...
  13. Time Stamp 3:03 I hope the driver was not WATCHING an episode... but this is 'murica (..."It's our Damn Right to watch whatever the %$#^ we want to, whenever the *&^% we want to...") 😕
  14. well that's 7 minutes that i might want back... 06:40 makes me think it Wants to be a Warhammer IIC with a TZ-III Bundle the size of an AC-20....
  15. yes, someone who is into civilian model flying planes created mockups of the VF-1... but that still does replicate the real thing... with all the bells whistles that Seto mentioned, these miniature planes still dont fully replicate the flight. No front slats no proper flaps that extend, no aspects in how those upper inlets affect flight (do they actually close in flight?) these are concepts i wonder if anyone has done in Wind Tunnels? I look over my shoulder to a anime wall scroll i bought back when i was working/living the Ventura area in the early 2000s, of a VF-1J looking at it from the Pilots 5 oclock (sans the UNSPACY Kite) and that art IS flying... IDK. I guess I'm having Old fart moments...
  16. I'm having a lazy Saturday night, my wife & minion & The Pants are out & about and I'm listening to random and subscribed YT stuff, when I'm not playing DDO. This YT is renown for his F-14 RIO knowledge and tonight's topic on when the F-14 program got DFCS installed made me think: Has anyone done a proper, actually took the time to think 'Can It Fly?' look at the VF-1 (maybe the VF-0, which looks more like a design that would fly... like a brick) on DCS or similar? I'm not talking video games, which do NOT replicate flight characteristics (just X/Y/Z axis on a static image) but the various popular flight sims that gained traction and functionality in the past 5 years...?
  17. +1000... Do that for M+ (the Movie)...
  18. *bows quietly* another one...
  19. My name... My Avatar... Well the Avatar is easy. The story has NOTHING to do with Macross Frontier's Female #2. It's the album cover of one of F2's Discography and at the time, I thought it was "cool". I suppose I could replace it with something more modern but *shrug* I'm too lazy at this point in my life... The Name... requires some travel time in the Way Back Machine... The time is 1999, the place is Webcity Cybercafe (It no longer exists) and the Game is Unreal Tournament. Now up till that point, I probably had a few different Handles for the three BIG FPS games that came to be from DOOM: Quake (series), Duke Nukem 3D and UT. Of all three, the most, best memories I have, is from Unreal Tournament. For those who weren't even Born Yet, those game were your parent's bread and butter. During one particularly and delightfully violent session of CTF-Facing Worlds, my friend changed his handle several times, settling on the simple and beloved: Cow. I, feeling the need to comeuppance, did the same. I initially settled on Pensive. Now, Pensive holds a place in history (to some); Pensive was a patron of JACS Cybercafe (also long non-existent) who's handle was Pensive. You have to ask him what the back story was and I was not privy to that. But he was a good citizen, kind hearted and yet annoying AF if you played against him (expert at Online Chess) so I always remembered his handle. Now If you are familiar, Facing Worlds is a very simple design for a Capture The Flag map. I specialized in a very effective Troll by Camping the topside Teleport with my Impact Hammer. Because the results were typically giblets of former enemy players, I had an Apiffany and changed my handle to the name that I retain to this day (but rarely use now): Pensive's Wetness(tm) My current handle is merely the result of age and maturity (nothing more). I hope my name brings smiles of remembrance (or maybe ulcers; I wasn't always a nice person to my foes) Anyway. Derp.
  20. had Macross SFDM-TV came out around or after first run of Neon Genesis Evangelion, with that concept that the GU-11 was considered overkill in certain situations, one wonders if the makers of SDFM-TV would have borrowed the idea of weapons lockers placed in locations within Macross City, equipped with weapons useable by Valkyries and Spartans (weapons that have real-world versions of Sub Machine Guns or similar? actually since both MF and Delta has come out at a time that the youth involved in those series would have seen NGE, was that ever a thing (weapon caches in the cities)?
  21. There's a problem with a bigger VF-1 (Maybe I've mentioned this in the past?). That's means you need bigger ships. The main reason all the VF's are referred as Fighter Aircraft (and the people who crew them as 'Pilots' or Aviators) is because of the method in how they are deployed. Otherwise, we might as well call Hikaru, a Battroid Pilot... or 'Mechwarrior (LOL).
  22. Random thought: This looks more like the VF-2SS as I look at this (like if the VF-2SS came out first then as a prequel, the VF-1J Dox?)
