  1. Dang, none of you are interested in The Duskbloods? Or is that not a launch game?
  2. I shipped my stuff immediately, before the cost of shipping REALLY starts going up. I'm pretty sure it was something like 14000 yen for 2 Glaugs and 2 MP Eva kits. Oof...
  3. This might be a bit of a random pull, but is Vampire Knight worth checking out?
  4. Can't be bothered to find the post, but the A24 war movie Warfare is apparently getting rave reviews. I'll try to catch it this week, after Sinners.
  5. I don't know if this deserves its own thread but HLJ sent this out in response to the US tariffs. Would a thread that collects the various stores' responses be warranted? tl;dr - As of April 20, 11pm EST, only EMS will be available for shipping to the US. And from a few days earlier (goes without saying, but the coupon code is expired):
  6. I saw the snake clip for the first time a few weeks back, and I was blown away by how exactly as stupid it was as people said. I'm happy to have never seen it in its entirety.
  7. I honestly thought you were dedicating each paragraph to a separate film. AVP
  8. For what it's worth, I saw Death of a Unicorn last night after I think seeing a trailer posted here. It's unfortunately pretty formulaic, and doesn't do a whole lot with its premise. It's a rare outing from A24, which I can usually count on to at least be unique and interesting. I wonder if I'd have had a better time watching The Woman In The Yard instead. The last few times I saw a Black-headed horror flick they've all done a decent to good job holding my attention. (Get Out, Nope, Us, Talk To Me, and Never Let Go.)
  9. I keep mixing up Fujimi with Fine Molds, which made me remember the latter's recent-ish 1/72 F-14 kits. IIRC it managed to be pretty fully detailed at such a small scale. I'd love a similar offering for the VF-1. Something that manages to match or outdo the ancient resin kit in terms of detailing would be absolutely fantastic. But at 1/144... yeah, I dunno, I think I'm a bit underwhelmed. Besides the small scale, there's nothing that really differentiates it from the Tomy and Doyusha models, even if those are long OOP.
  10. The Supers were originally part of the Klan 25G kit IIRC. And while I'd love a RVF, I understand why no one ever does one besides Hasegawa. Especially in this line. How would they integrate the radome with the girl? Maybe it's just a hat? Maybe it attaches to her back?
  11. Finished Frieren last week. Enjoyed the same things I enjoyed in the first half, hated the same things I hated in the first half. I can't believe there was an honest to god tournament arc. I really would rather have just spent time with Frieren and her companions past and present. The world itself is monumentally uninteresting.
  12. I didn't look too much into the numbers, I'm assuming those are with marketing, but 🤷‍♂️.
  13. Based on the numbers on Wikipedia, for "Phase 5" we've got... Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania - $388m budget, $476m BO The Marvels - $374m budget, $206m BO Deadpool and Wolverine - $200m budget, $1.3b BO Captain America: Brave New World - $180m budget, $373m BO ...which is a 1:2.06 ratio. Granted, you remove the DaW outlier, that ratio drops precipitously to about 1:1.2, so... still better than breaking even, but I get your point, but that's still not enough of a liability to hold back what is assuredly a wildly (if inexplicably) popular run of LA movies. Apparently Lion King made $1.65 BILLION. I... I don't get it.
