Super Dub Fortress Macross on Hulu
Roy Focker replied to Funkenstein's topic in Movies and TV Series
Hikaru sounds like a whiney bitch. Max sounds like a teenagers whose voice is changing. Compared to this the Robotech VA are better. Their voices didn't fit every character's but it was workable. -
Super Dub Fortress Macross on Hulu
Roy Focker replied to Funkenstein's topic in Movies and TV Series
Watched 2 episode. My first viewing of the new dub. I'm totally glad this is up on hulu. It a chance for more people to get expose to Macross. I regret that is this dubbed version. I haven't heard every characters new dubbed voice but the ones I heard so far makes it sound like some fan dub. Was there any auditions for this or did they randomly draw a voice Actor's name out of a hat? -
Super Dub Fortress Macross on Hulu

Beat me to it by 3 hours. -
Pass - Likely. This would have to be released when I have $200 just laying around, an urge to spend it and many reviews praising this toy.

Totally Pissed!!! I bought a new Toshiba P500 Laptop about a month ago. Had them throw on a TV Tuner Card. Turns my HD Taptop into a second HD TV. That is great thing to have. Sadly it broke after just a month of use. The Card attaches to an antenna by the way of a cheaply made connecting cable. The end of this cable broke of in the card. This of this part like the Shoulder on a Yamato. It can't do what it is designed for without breaking. I contacted the TV Tunners customer support. Got a form response back about how I can get a replacement cable for $5. Shipping on their site makes the total $20. I spent $80 for the entire card. The cable weighs as much shoe lace. Their form response included another email I should contact for more help. Five days have passed and no answer from that one. I tried calling but I hear I have to wait 15 minutes for help. I've sent an email in vain to Toshiba to see if they can help. -
I got mine in the Mail Today. Looks good. I have it Battroid mode with armor. I won't be doing much before I have a spare pair set of shoulders on standby. First thing when took it out was to mind the Shoulders. It might just be me but the pin looked large and more exposed compared to my other V2. There was no cracks or stress marks but it looked clear just an ounce of pressure on the wrong spot might cause a break. I loosen the screws on the shoulder. Now it has some floppy upper arm movement but better that than a break

FURIOUS OVER NEW CONAN (Conan the Barbarian remake)
Roy Focker replied to Agent ONE's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I for one am all for hijacking this topic to talk about Coco if it means a less chance of more pics of shirtless men. -
I collect SW figures from time to time. I go to the store pick up one cool figure and then stop for a years at a time cause all I see are 20 of those Ugly Six Titted Bitches from Jabba's Palace warming the pegs. Hmmm....warming the peg that sounds good but She's ugly it's not like she's the chick from Total Recall. Wait what was I gonna talk about? Oh yeah what are the definitive figures to get? I hate picking a fig to find that does not have SA or they have one ugly looking part. What figs are on par with VOTC Han Solo from Episode 4? Prequels, Clone Wars and Random back ground characters like Bespin Ice Cream Man don't count.

That what I don't understand. Why do they games start you off with equipment that sucks? Eventually this will be a game that you Pay to Play. They don't have to give you the Enterprize but they can do you better than suck. What are paying for then? Why pay money to be a poor person doing mundane jobs in a fanasty world when you can do that in real life? When you buy a hamburger they don't just give you a patty in bun and make you clean tables to work for a piece of cheese and ketcup. That stuff comes with it. Cause they know the hamburger would suck otherwise.

Do you really need to use Spoiler Tags? Think of us really intend to see this movie?

The All Things Video Games Thread!
Roy Focker replied to Apollo Leader's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Rant - Do MMO RPG Suck or is it just me? A friend recommended that I try the Star War Galaxies trial with him. Last computer game I played online was Star Wars Dark Forces 2. I thought why not lets see how thing have advanced in the last decade. I have a new high performance, HD laptop with a high speed Internet a modern game is gonna kick ass. It didn't! Graphics suck, combat system sucks. Stand still and shot a gun in the head 50 times. Can't use some blaster till I reach a certain level. WTF? How hard is it to point a shot a gun? As I understand it you pay monthly fees to play games? I start the game with sucky abilities, crappy weapons and bad clothes. Why can't I start with Storm Trooper Armor, two double light sabers and speeder bike? Why do I have to do all these crappy jobs for just 100 credits? If I'm paying to play why don't I get cool stuff from the start? Think I want to spend hours a day working for it? I'd play video games 1 hour a week. I want cool stuff now! If I pay to play give me good stuff and skills! And I want it Now! Why does the graphics suck? Am I wrong for thinking this would be like PS3 Home but with Fricken Lasers? Look at PS3 Online games. The PS3 cost less than a computer you get to play online games at no extra charge. I can play Metal Gear Online get my ass kicked and called a F@g by other players but at least the graphic are cool, I get good clothes to wear and weapons to use and I don't pay extra. MMO RPGs are scam aren't they? -
Finally a proper sequel to Macross!

You knew they could have updated it, making it really gritty or just stupid like Gijoe. Instead we got cheesy action, SFX but the character's seem to be there and they are wearing the right costumes. Looks like it might be very close to the original with stupid mindless popcorn fun. I would have loved a serious version but I'd see this one anyways.

Both are cool! If we are looking at just the defect free VF-1 1/60 V2 model than it wins as the more accurate toy to display. On the other hand if you want a "Toy" over a display model go with the 1/48. Fast Pack falls off, it is a bit floppy but sturdy too.

I don't like this news. I have been very carefull to avoid the questionable Valks. I passed on many because of these issues. My name is down on a group buy for this toy because not only it is for the cool looking armor but a newer release of Hikaru's VF-1J. This is a total step backwards. I could have just bought an older cheaper VF-1J and wait for the Armor to be sold seperately I'll still honor my part of the group buy but knowledge that I'll be getting a defective expensive toy really sucks.

Got my VE-1 yesturday. Got the shipping notice on the 25th. Took 10 days by SAL which included 4 weekend days and 2 Holidays.
-
From pics alone it looks like the V2 wins.

Haven't seen this movie yet. Not high on my list either. I did get a review from two people. One of them a 17 year old girl had this to say, "I didn't like it. Started out okay but then got stupid with the people becoming these blue creatures and trying to make animal sounds"
-
How cool is this. I placed my order for the VE-1 on Christmas Eve and get the shipping notice on Christmas Day. Went with SAL so it will still be like another 3 weeks.

JSI 1/18 Scale F-14 Tomcat Announced
Roy Focker replied to Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Very ugly paint job for a very pricey toy. Looks worth $20 now. -
How funny I ordered a VE-1 today as well. Good prices on all the stuff but little differences from one VF-1 to another. The VE-1 is built on the VF-1 toy but different enough to look like a new different toy for my collection instead just being a repaint.

The computer and electronics super geek thread
Roy Focker replied to Dante74's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Well I just setup a new wireless network. First time doing it. Lost my Key/Password years ago and had redo it all from scratch if I wanted to move my new computer more than 3 feet away. Guess my router came with a setup CD. Where did it go? I think it was stolen by that Geek at Best Buy that set things up the first time. Read some of the router's manual. Wish it was more common nitwit friendly. I guess the setup CD is for idiots like me. Hell if I did things correctly kept most of the default settings. Was smart enough to use a WPA2 security with a huge password to prevent my neighbor from using it. Should stop the idiots but not the smart ones I guess. Just to be safe I will be using a wired connection when I conduct business. Yes I hate the "junk" sites use as well. All that stuff is neat looking but go on the wrong site and your screwed. I'm so paranoid from the viruses I got before. I'm done with random browsing. Go to some semi-legimate looking site and discover the danger hiding in the junk. I can now just look at a URL on google and know it could be bad because of the country of origin. My Internet now is limited to a long list on my favorites. -
No fair I justgot a new computer. Maybe I have enough to buy 1 new Valk but this sucks.
