  1. I can’t argue with the fact that those prequels were almost just as bad as the sequels. They were pretty trashy and hard to look at. as far as thinking it’s weird , I grew up with the old stuff. The live action stuff focused mainly on the whole Jedi thing, while live action wise there were those awkward Ewok movies that were the split away from the Jedi thing, and I can’t really call those good. Basically until D+ Rogue One and Solo were kinda the only things somewhat separate from the Jedi thing, although not by too much. The D+ era seems to have tried a few things that mostly deal with the Jedi and those were the worst of their shows. Mando, Andor and Skeleton Crew are the only ones that aren’t trash at this point although I do feel that Mando took a few too many stumbles in season three
  2. I saw an interview with Billy about a month ago, and he was saying there’s a pretty good chance he’s actually brothers with Bill Burr. Not sure if he was joking or not, but he said he was serious in the interview and that his dad had a few flings and , I guess his mom had asked him if he Knew who Burr was before he had really taken off in his career. I don’t know if it’s the bald heads, but they do kinda resemble eachother. All I know is that whenever I hear one of their songs, my head either replaces Billy with Bills face or that silly rollercoaster meme pops in my head
  3. It’s weird that we’ve gotten to a point where the best stories stay far far away from the Jedi as a main plot or character
  4. Unfortunately on a ranking scale of worst to best of these shows, most really suck overall. Acolyte was the worst followed closely by the Obi show and then boba show and Ahsoka very closely. Mando gets a middle ground spot because that third season drags the show down pretty hard. Then so far in the overall I’d say this show is better than overall Mando, which would have a higher rank if I was just judging individual seasons and the lead would be Andor even though it had a pretty bad start, it made up for in the rest of the season.
  5. I’m hoping you’re right and I definitely agree about kids these days. They’re not as accepting of total bs like kids from the 80’s. We rode with all the idiocy of those Superman sequels and just let them happen. I don’t know if it’s that kids these days are more intelligent or that they just have more peers voicing their opinions or if it’s a mix of both, but even kids know when a show sticks the landing or flops on the landing deck.
  6. Don’t worry, knowing Hikaru, he’ll fall into it again and damage it for real
  7. Maybe all the pirates of our world actually ripped off the ones in this show since it takes place such a long long time ago. I mean, even Captain Jack Sparrow was in a ship advanced enough to have safety rails, even if the construction was sub par.
  8. The whole mint thing is kinda slim as is, why not just invade a planet that is known to exist with a mint. And if security is the reason not to, they don’t really know what the mystery planet has as far as security. It also brings into question what the other secret planets had that was of value and if the mint even was the real treasure. I guess we’ll hopefully find out soon
  9. I thought this had already been confirmed before the show even started. I didn’t realize anyone was still questioning this so long into the series
  10. In this case it kinda does. It could end up the entire downfall of a show centered around it. It could be that thing that totally ruins an overall great show in the grand way that Gundam Unicorn totally flopped when its mcguffin turned out to be pointless piece of crap. A show with it’s decent characters, good music and a great look can easily be destroyed by simply being pointless. I’ve never forgiven Unicorn for letting me down so badly and now instead of seeing what I originally thought looked great, now I only see it for its massive flaws. I don’t want to rewatch it, because I never want to get to the end that let me down
  11. If that were the case, I’m sure someone would’ve mentioned that they were working on it. But even if you don’t like dubs D+ and Hulu usually havs sub and dub options
  12. Einhander was one of my absolute favorites when it came out. the Raiden model kit from plum gets an occasional rerelease and I’ve seen Ikaruga come up a couple times from Kotobukiya I Believe. Looked like a lot of fancy markings on the Ikaruga from what I remember. I don’t recall a Raystorm one, but I easily could be wrong.
  13. I think that goes for every company. The transformation gimmick can and always will be something a bit complicated and for older designs like the VF -1, filled with compromises that a non transforming robot isn’t held back by.
  14. I liked it , even though it’s a bit predictable and as you said repetitive. I always kinda wanted more of a conclusion to it though
  15. Were you able to switch to Japan, yet view it with subtitles in English on Dyrl or the og show?
  16. Just finished the new season of Squid Game. Definitely doesn’t have the impact that the first had. I still found it likable with its absurdity and goofy characters, but it’s one of those that seems like it may have been better if it just ended with the first season
  17. It’s pretty similar here in the U.S.. no Macross on D+ and a couple videotape releases of the movie around similar times I know others have had vpn problems with Japan, but you can look through this thread, I think someone found one that may have worked
  18. And a reminder that their biggest customer is still going Macross free in the new year. It’s possible, but Big West would definitely gain money here, Sony doesn’t seem as much of a c..k blocker for anime, Disney is usually just ignorant about anime, but most evidence or speculation points to Harmony Gold because they’ve been the biggest roadblock for Macross for many years and decades despite introducing it to the U.S. in the first place
  19. I don’t know so much about sexy, but at least he was still a cursed type of character. And his underlings we’re more zombie than clubbing fun time peeps The new ones all seem forever trapped in the perfect body with friends that are also in perfect bodies that might be allergic to daytime as their biggest weakness. They prey on people that end up just like them, spoiled and rich with forever beauty and no downside to being turned. I don’t know what they all do for money, but they all seem to support eachother and have endless supplies of leather and pleather, probably because they don’t have to pay for insurance
  20. Definitely a go to for the Holliday, but that may be more due to a lack of competition than being the best for the subject
  21. Yup, still an issue and probably always will be a roadblock.
  22. No sexy vampires in this one I guess. I’m fine with that. I like a vampire with an actual curse upon them rather than the modern no downside non monster vampire. The modern ones can’t go out in the day sometimes and other than that look hot and live forever, who wouldn’t want to be one of those, but nobody wants to be Orlok
