    they never read the comic where Vader fought a clone of Maul and defeated him by stabbing through himself to kill the former apprentice.

    maybe they did, back when they were filming the 2nd POS film [to kill Snoke]. That fan film is arguably far better than what they have done in cannon. Ignoring all the stupid parts, the way they have done KR is still a modern thing. So much potential to have made the 3rd triology epic... and they just filled it with retardation.

  2. reading that article about the floating head makes me wish there was a video component: It would have been telling to see his facial expressions when asked those last questions. Actually, it would have been nicer to hear more substantial questions but The Froating Head is wise enough to get someone else to bite feeding hands... maybe he'll write a tell-all book (do Japanesse even have that ability to do that?).

    However, can we go back to MOSPEADA for a moment? please explain how in japan a 2nd coming of MOSPEADA is in the works? links would be nice, I'm just curious.

    Seto, are any of those series good? I’m not familiar with any Trek novels except Shatners trilogy from the 90’s.

    Chris

    and STO: what is going on with that? Its been years since I stopped playing but STO's storyline isn't cannon as I vaguely recall?

    I wouldn't go as far as call JJ Trek a failure but more still borne if anything. JJ Just lost interest because the $$$ he hoped for didn't materialize... and the shitty story telling in part 2, mostly.

  4. [mumbles darkly] ...At least it's a violent event not involving firearms. Here in the states, that kind of attack is measured in when, not if. How often do events like this happen involving the mentally ill in japan (or eastern Asia in general)?

    When I saw this mentioned on FB yesterday, there was one KIA. Now? 26 to 33 depending on whom you ask.

    Parent me is shaking my head in mild grief.

    Gamer me, however, is darkly wondering if some anime studios are celebrating the destruction of a competitor studio apparently known for actually paying their employees (as well as reviewing security around their properties). In my middle age, I no longer just assume that everyone wants to be the Lawful Good Paladin...

     

  5. A thought occurred to me while typing a comment on CBT.com on this topic: The NUNS (and it's frontier Kite) and the redesigns for Macross: The First, to me, are clearly both artistic liberties as well as legal moves (when you think about the still existing cold war between Bigwest & Tatsunoko) but could the creation of the VF-0 (and the resulting retcon of the Macross back story) also be legal moves? Has anyone done a timeline of the creation of the various Macross properties and concurrent legal events to see a possible picture forming?

    Ugh... Harmony Gold is claiming they've secured a renewal of their license agreement with Tatsunoko Production.

    What a waste.

    I can also claim to have a pair of 40GG breasts... but a claim is hyperbole until the ink dries on the paper. Please provide a credible link, less we collectively think someone else was sitting in your chair typing bovine excrement... Is there any mention of this in Japanese Print or Digital Media?

  7. Lets not bring that up (although I still think the folks at FASA had NO CLUE how radioactive those pictures/imagery they 'bought' from TCI until they realized too late in court)...

    What if CBS loses the court case? What implications for the already filmed portions of STD?

    2 stores is hardly worth worth the time it took to write the article.  A different format of store too - much smaller.  This is TRU in name only, kinda like Atari when whoever bought it revised the brand name.

    maybe.... but at least its EMPLOYMENT however so tenuous. Not that I think its worth it (do kids today do anything besides play with their phones now?)...

  9. Well, I saw the movie yesterday evening with my Kid and his posse of fellow High schoolers. It was better than I thought. Yes, the humans were not as good but I totally enjoyed the mindless blink and they are dead moments. The one-sided air battle vs Rodan, where all the pilots die one by one ID4 style was a nice touch... 8 out of 10 Halflings. Lots of things to chew over for the next film (assuming there is still interest or time left on the contract)?
