  1. No they are the worst. A caught a couple of episodes of each and thought as this the current anime crap thats considered in right now? If so I'll past.
  2. Hooray for Bollywood! Indian films believe it or not are quite cool. Aren't Indian films just a bunch of musicals with people singing and dancing all funny like? Well, yes kinda but Bollywood films can be just as entertaining as anything out of Hollywood. The musical is alive in Bollywood but not like the pointless musicals that were popular is Hollywood. Take Vidhu Vinod Chopra's Mission Kashmir a film I recently saw for example. Mission Kashmir (2000) is shoot em up, bombs blowing up action film! Heck Arnold could star in it! The film revolves around two characters, Kahn played by Sanjay Dutt and Altaaf played by Hrithik Roshan. Kahn is the experienced commander of the anti-terrorist police. He's plays the tough guy, action hero but he cares for his men and is loving husband and father. After an accident hurts Kahn's son he finds that he can't get any medical help for him. The local terrorist put fear into the doctors and when Kahn's son gets help it's too late. Kahn dons a black mask and joins his men to get revenge. Bullets fly and terrorist die but so does an innocent family. There is one survivor a young boy Altaaf. Kahn wife pleads for him to bring the young boy home so they can raise him as their own. Kahn worried of what could happen when young Altaaf finds out the truth (Kahn was wearing a mask after all). They take the traumatized Altaaf home and decided to be loving parents for the boy who needs them. When he is older they will tell him the truth. Well, the movie would be boring if he didn't find out earlier. He learns and runs away. Ten years later Altaaf returns as a karate kicking terrorist hunk! Kahn and Altaaf both swear to get the other. Altaaf is consumed with revenge but returning home causes some problems, an old love interest, the adopted mother he still accepts as his mother. Eventually there is an explosive show down between father and son. This movie has it all Martial arts, guns, bombs and good old violence! It is also a film about family and love. Violence and love how can that be? Yeah it's all in this movie. Don't forget the singing! The film is a musical too but they don't sing all the time. Some of the singing will looks out of place. Like how could Altaaf who's been gone for the past ten years working out with weights and building bombs find the time to learn how to sing and dance but somehow he found the time. The musical aspects of the film really just expresses some of the current emotions of the characters. There is a message of the film to stop fighting and start dancing around and sing. If you want to think it a little like Macross 7 in that accept you can but here they are kill eachother between the singing!!!! The movie runs 160 minutes and is rated R for violence but it should be rated PG-13. There some scenes that show kids getting killed. Its bloodless but some chickens gave it an R rated because of it. There is hardly any fowl language and no nudity or sex scenes. Believe me its still a good movie! You will enjoy the action, be moved the the emotion. Bollywood films are big production numbers and will entertain you.
  3. The general rules is no pics in signatures and use common sense on everything else. I don't recall us saying anything on the length but people should use common sense on Font or length. I assume once a bunch people forget to use common sense well need up making some offical stance on the subject.
  4. Like there isn't enough of that.
  5. I believe the topic was, 'Worst anime you've watched recently" Not anime you don't like.
  6. Oh great now he has no teeth! Just when I thought he couldn't get any uglier
  7. Wtf? That red bar on Hikaru's chest is his rank not a name tag!
  8. Hey lets remember that this topic would normal be discussed in the MPC thread but since its timely and is more about Macross and man doll Hikaru that its here. If the discussion is starting to get old to the point where it looks like it should go the MPC thread it shall.
  9. But then again, when was the last time Milla starred in a decent film? Zoolander
  10. No. No it doesn't. I know just what it needs.
  11. You know what me too! I didn't drink koolaid but I remember buying some of it just to go the mail in offer never got it! I'm taking a contract out on the Koolaid man!
  12. I'm sure she's a very attractive girl but I protest people taking their own pictures they never come out right.
  13. This seems like a circle. Not pointing fingers but I don't want to see any more PM on something so small and stupid like this. Sure the rest of us in this topic is just talking stupid trash but what ever this little thing is just that something little, stupid and unimportant that being made into something worst than it is.
  14. Hurin, I quoted many people in that post and use saracism for all. Explainations can take time away from other things here. Some situation require an explaination but it isn't need for everything. Some times people are just looking for an explaination. So they can argue about it. "See everyone they're not fair" or "That topic was off topic too but you allowed it." Some people see others against them and have to point finger at abuse of authority. Call it flame bait against the mods if you will. Really were not gonna all stop and give a reason for every close thread or edit to a post when the reason is known by common sense. There is no need other than to help someone ego. Take a poster in this thread for example some new blood here will come with a slight chip on their shoulder. Just takes one mod to mod something and the person may feel there being wrong. If a reason was given the member might be pleased with it. Remember when reasons that are given is gift. No one actually deserves one. A member doesn't like the reason they may think that a mod is out to get them. Why else would someone moderate them? These members either mellow out or become a constaint pain. I think we mod forgot to warn the mini-mod that they know they made it when they get their first public complaint about them. So, all I'm saying is that it's nice that we have some newer blood around here who aren't so burned out on moderating. Because non-burned-out mods tend to do the little things that keep things from getting out of hand. Why do people think we're burnt out? I've been like this before I became a mod here? Why is that mod mean? Maybe their burned-out. No he just is. How many times must I express that I hate everyone of you and feed on your yummy tears? The burned-out mod are the ones who retire. Not because they are sick of people here but things outside are eating their time and they don't feel that they have enough love to hate you all properly.
  15. More reason why I doubt the $79.99 price for Hikaru will be worth it. The man-doll him self: This things typically run 20 to 40 with the doll, dress and weapons. It is an import and Toynami and everyone is taking their cut but this alone does justify $79.99. This can still be covered for $49.99. Of course the under turtle neck would have to be fixed and the doll and clothes would have to be of high enough quality that something won't break as you undress him. My Hikaru won't be fully clothed when he's in bed with Barbie. The Packaging: IMO a cheap paper bag will work but the man-doll won't look important unless he's in a good box. For the collector's window box up the price as high as $59.99 if you want. But they want $20 more dollars? How to jusifity that? How about with some really cheap and lame useless junk? Like Dog Tags! Yeah I remember Dog Tags in Macross that's worth more money! A life-sized uniform patch! Wow I'm buying a man-doll cause I want a patch to wear! Think I know how to sew? Those are two pieces of crap that isn't needed. Your buying the doll and the box not little cheap crap to up the price. You can keep those things and give me the doll at a lower price.
  16. Could it just be the he was just so angry with Robotech's boards that he assume that MW would be the exact opposite? I admitt alot of things are different but message boards are still gone censor people. We might do it for different reasons but its still gonna happen. When it does happen it not be because the board might have something against them.
  17. No. They are idiot whiners like you. You know what some of your problems are is that you think you all deserve an explanation. You post was the best post ever written because you wrote. Oh how dare they censor the voice of god! "Why was my Off topic deleted or moved to another forum?" Duh it was Off topic. If the reason topics are closed, deleted or moved is because they are off topic than is it really a surprize that it happens? My favorite is "I know this is off topic but does any one here..." which is followed after the topic is moderated, "What happen to my topic!" Idiots you admitted that you knew it was off. So why are you all surprized that it was deleted? Its not that we think you stupid idiots but that you are smart. Some things are common sense. Common sense would tell you that your off topic post would likely be deleted for that reason and Common sense would tell you why your 'for sale' post was moved out of the toy section to the actual 'for sale forum'. Instead some of you want a reason. Here I am thinking someone you have a brain. You're not all as stupid as you act. If you knew what you doing when made the post you can figure out why it got moderated. A specific reason just for you is only for your ego. Think of how much time would be wasted here if everyone got a reason and a PM as some would like it for every single time a Mod had to make an edit? People would be asking, "Why didn't you mods close that topic where everyone was fighting" we have to tell them "We were writting you a letter on why we deleted you topic on post your favorite x-rated url." Also note the the mini-mods are assigned to certain forums while the mods go all over. Of course this reply will cause some to whine. Oh look how the mean mods here don't care! When someone is told why a topic is closed is because the Mods think it is needed. Everyone doesn't need a reason when 90% of the reason is pretty clear. As for Robotech.com they can do what ever the hell they want. Yeah censoring topics about other companies stuff is stupid but hey they're a business. What I have always been like this! If we seemed more tolerant it was because we had fewer people. The more people sharing the swings the more we have to occasional throw off to allow everyone a fair turn. Why do some people get worried about that sig? Its just a joke of Macross 7 and what people accuse the mods of doing. Don't you all see I don't like having power and laughing at you because of it. I love laughing at you when you make this isane claims that the Moderators are out to get you specifically! No one likes being told what to do. Face it all lot of people here are outcast, nerds and geeks. While some of us might be a muscle bound Hugh Grant look alikes like Agent One. He is still by his hobbies a geek. He might not look it but he has a geeky hobby which he is practicing. Thus by this he is a geek. As such geeks are sometimes treated bad on the outside world. The internet is where geeks can run free without judgement! They can act without the man telling them what to do or judging them. Here the mods are the man. We get to tell them what to do and some of you geeks get all insecure about it. Some of you hip cats get the reasons why we do what we do and get the jokes but others are just too caught up in their own insecurities. Agent One is a perfect example of a confidence. He's so not insecure that part of him is a geek that he hides it behind a giant wall of confidence. Btw I think he'd be a terrible mod cause who would he have to ban besides himself? Didn't that dude Jesus say something about, he without sin cast the first stone? Agent One without sin? I think not. So he can't cast any stone. I'm perfect I can throw sharp jagged stones at people all day. Some old topic deserve a second look but really if the same old same old is brought up again week after week but are just the same replies do we need to see it again? Wouldn't such a topic be better served under a pin topic, as a faq or allow only such topic on the subject a month? Yes Mod have to sometimes make judgement calls on what is unworthy even if it's no topic otherwise things might became stagnate as people are trying to find something new to talk about. I belong on some large boards were I visit them in morning than then 3 hours later only to see three new pages of topic all discussing the same thing. I'm glad when places attempt to keep things fresh.
  18. Honestly I'd prefer it to held the same time that these other events are being held for two reasons. 1. Those events are for a couple of days but rarely is there's enough to interest me all the days of the event. Would be nice to go that "event" on sat and then go MW Con the next day. 2. Some us might like to go to all of these events but only have so much vacation time. What week do we choose to take off?
  19. Oh those guys suck! One of them. This one guy had the nerve to kill off one my characters by having him cut off his own head with a sword. My character was trained since birth! The guy said he did it cause I stopped posting. He wouldn't allow me to play my first character I created either. Cause he said they're aren't Zombie Cyclone riders in Macross. What's worst is they threaten to kick me out for a game post I made. My character was porking another in the ass trying to break a record and gain information. They said I was too crude and vulgar and their RPG wasn't a hentai one. Didn't these idiots see the Sentinel's Comic Book character art of Minmay? Avoid that place!
  20. I'm sorry but I'm gonna close this topic. It's just too stupid. Mini-Mods Feel Free to use that line when closing one.
  21. When Member Titles were first being handed out. I explained the following they will be granted upon members for something they did, known for or said. Like a a knick name. Don't ask for a specific title for yourself or others. The deflaut ones were added later by other mod. Even so the Mods have still been giving out special member titles. The assigning of a member title that quotes a board reg or an offense against one is fair when it something that people are ingoring. Since the offended have been walking propaganda of the regs there has been a drop in Animated Avatars. It is not meant to cause laugher at the offender as was suggested in a PM sent to me. As said early in the post member titles were granted upon members for something they did, known for or said. Like a a knick name. The topic poster has been posting here and PM me on their dislike for this practice of "No avatar" titles. Based on what said said they have inspired me to give them a new specialized title. They might get all sore about it but most people are good sports.
  22. Sure are a lot of pretty girly boys in this group. If you get impants call me
  23. Hey! Hey! You shut up Exo! Can't you see that the story of Agent One tossing dishes is a great story even if it doesn't relate at all to the subject in question?
  24. Well you can't blame people not to call them dolls. They are barbie sized and you dress them. Sure the placed the title action figure on them but now a days most consider action figure to be smaller. The larger size has the advantage of more detail and some can be moved in more positions then a barbie or a g.i.joe figure. These aren't toys but higher collectibles. Still in appearance they are dolls. Yet the clothes offer the advantage of realism and the ability to make an easy custom. I only bought one of these in 1993 and thought I never would again but I started to collect about 4 these last two months and waiting for another too arrive soon.
  25. Yeah it doesn't count color that much. I used the same pic in color and black & white and got the same results. The higher the score the better chances.
