  1. Han, Luke, Willow. It’s overdone and I don’t think anyone liked that idea when it was new. I don’t think anyone likes finding out that their heroes just turned into lonely wastes of space after a great adventure or series of adventures. brings back bad memories of Die Hard movies beyond the second one.
  2. To be honest, that’s my favorite of the team costumes they had. It looked good on everybody
  3. This is the saddest macross picture I’ve seen since the death of Roy
  4. I think the battroid will look great, and probably the gerwalk as well, but the fighter depends on how they do the parts for swapping. I’m definitely curious to see this one more than the rest. I really like the YF-19 model so far for the battroid, but the fighter could’ve used some work although I still like it
  5. I’ve heard it, but long ago. Definitely something of a lost one i used to think he said Donnie, I guess I was wrong
  6. I don’t think that people are really taking longer holidays, it seemed like a lot of people were working Monday, maybe if the fourth were on a Monday to give a longer weekend, it may have been a slight factor. But recent films on long weekends haven’t been heavily affected by them since the big day has been the Friday sales. Avatar May have been the only recent one to significantly gain numbers in a following weekend. I just think most people are turned off from the last film. It’s tough for a franchise to bring back its fans after a big let down, and then the reviews came back less than stellar. It’s also one of those films that turned folks off and not a lot of people went to see it, so even if there were that co worker that someone trusted with a review, that person or people didn’t go. Basically without good word of mouth, the movie won’t get much of an audience until it’s streaming. At this point that’s where this movie will probably pick up an audience since there’s no risk. Streaming itself is a big factor when it’s a film that doesn’t get great reviews. Top Gun was able to bring a big audience due to great reviews and word of mouth, but if it’s not getting that kinda talk people just won’t bother getting out of the house.
  7. It’s more like they ditched the cockpit for the joints. Most of them look pretty obvious, but they seem to work. Still a bit skeptical about that side armor staying on.
  8. I was hearing that from one of the people working at a nearby theater. I guess they were talking about the upcoming films and kinda turning down the dial of destiny a few notches more than expected
  9. Even the Andor show was an underperformance. I actually liked that one for the most part. And as Mechaninac stated above the marvel shows have been on life support for a while. Ms Marvel, She Hulk and now Secret Invasion. And of course Willow was just sad. The hope of good content on D+ is going down.
  10. I might have agreed with you a couple years ago, but they’ve got 2 flopping movies currently and their streaming shows don’t seem to be doing so great either.
  11. Preorders for the reissue kits went up last week. It’s been a while since some of them have been re supplied.
  12. I actually liked the character. I didn’t really care for how they used the character, but after the movie I had kinda thought a film with that character could be good if handled right. The guy had a gimmick with bladed weapons and tools similar to how his pops used a whip. And he was a motorcycle guy rather than someone that might be on a horse. There was potential, but Disney is really bad at being handed potential success and usually turns it into a failure. It’s like they’re handed gold, but it just turns to rust.
  13. I’ve been wondering the same thing with Hasegawa and Max Factory both doing non transforming 1/72 Macross kits. In the old days it was one company could do a similar product from the license, but had to be a different scale, but now it’s possibly gonna be a Thunderdome style fight for supremacy.
  14. It’s definitely my favorite of any this century. Even when I’m not too into the episode, they end it in a gut wrenching have to see where this crazy crap goes kinda way. Basically, that’s a very close explanation of what they are, just maybe not how they came to be. Then again having the basic non scientist explain humanity to an alien might have the same problems
  15. The flying Monster is up for preorder tonight at the usual places. Was checking out pics of it on hobbysearch and as some have pointed out it does look like it might not be too unrealistic to modify this into the official VB-6
  16. Not a bad price for 5 og N-Ger kits. That’s less than Bandai charges for 1 reprint. also the 4 in 1 kit is nice since it’s in scale with the power armor kits, it would work great on a mvm diorama
  17. There’s even more talk going on about a show starring fleabag, so there’s definitely ideas in milking the franchise for a while. If the movie at least makes its money back, I’m sure they’ll more than likely go through with those ideas. I don’t know what they’ll do if the movie is a failure. Indy is one of those big names in franchise movies and like marvel and Star Wars, Disney probably will try to do something eventually as long as they own the property
  18. I’ve never had any issues with them other than in one of my front missions sets, they forgot to send the bonus item, but they realized the mistake before the main package even got to me and sent the bonus parts in a small box for free. Preorders can be tough for Bandai products, but otherwise pretty easy.
