    Yeah, which means if they invade us, then the the real world is also digital and thus we will have another Matrix paradox.
  2. Raikkonen
    Valid point. But there's a lot of that in the SW universe... why any walkers when they have speeders that float? Why slaves and labourers that cost more to acquire and maintain than droids that don't need food, sleep and are stronger? Why pilots when fighters can be fighter drones? Why are the almost impenetrable shields on destroyer droids not equipped by organic troopers? What's the point of the stormtrooper armours? Sure, somewhere along the endless encyclopedias there's some fan driven justifying explanation to the above, but will always look clueless when facing logic. This is part of SW.

    Well, that's fail on me. Keep seeing his past interviews in new videos that don't mention his passing. My point. What has come out of their attempts? If they want to protect their merchandising, then they need to improve the delivered product to build a client base. No point wanting to be the sole producer of a particular design, of the which the end product leaves a soar taste to most buyers. Even now with a reputable brand like Threezero, HG is letting past imperfections well ironed out by other manufacturers on the same design. Whatever Toynami and etc has produced, every detail was approved by HG before sent to production.

    I'll never be convinced of any Robotech future show to ever happen. Since the internet's early days HG has been promising something in the works from a show to a live action film, but zero has happened in almost 30 years. So I don't understand why HG keep feeling threatened to how Macross continues? Only thing that is keeping Robotech alive in HG's boardroom is Macek, but once he's in a retirement home, Robotech will only live on Youtube documentaries.

    Wow. Wasn't expecting this.

    It's from a toy line for young girls... obviously the market was always going to be for daughters along with their parents, and the generations of women that grew with Barbie, that by the trailers twinkled a humour saying it's ok to bring the husbands, fathers and boyfriends to be enjoyed together. Yes, it has it's funny moments, but towards the end it's all about telling how girls don't need relationships. I don't know how the joke could be on you or anyone in this case?

    This type of character generally only works well with animation exaggerations. This is why it will likely get cancelled and then the general media who never read the Manga, will blame the Manga story for being poor.

    They took a toy brand aimed at young girls, and promoted the film to bring the whole family to the theatre. But, delivered a film with endless adult context layered on a existential crises where the bottom line is to hate men and hate being in relationships. I don't think it's a joke. That's aside the uncomfortable lines that responsible parents don't want to explain to their kids. My biggest surprise is how did Mattel ever sign on this?
  9. Raikkonen
    Absolutely right. Was thinking Viper. Apologies.

    I'm still battling to finish the first Delta film, so I can get started on this one to see Max's return.
  11. Raikkonen
    That was already good looking piece of machinery, especially for it's time, albeit very much inspired by the X-wing.

    I'm always in for more Tron. Was gutted when Disney canned uprising. Loved Legacy. Also came across this. - Evan Peters joined the cast. - Was meant to start shooting in August, now halted due to strike. Rumoured: - Set in real world as a evil program breaks out of the grid that attempts to take over ours.

    Gun holster but no gun... That's fail.

    Wolves, Gambit, that Scarlet J Widow and Mark 2 for me. Blade would have been top of my list if it had a alternative non-screaming head.
  15. Raikkonen
    Blade needed a non screaming alternative head.
  16. Raikkonen
    Of course it will. There's going to be lots of frantic chase scenes and chaotic shooting sprees. Oh... I retract my "kid" comments. He really looks like a 13 year old!!! Cheers for the correction. But there's still going to be lots of chasing and shooting.
  17. Raikkonen
    Quite generic. Perfect for the background, but not very striking for a SW main character.
  18. Raikkonen
    Myself too never got into OP, and thankfully as I don't have the memory bank to fully digest so many episodes. That aside, I suspect this might hit strong with younger audiences, or get cancelled as some Anime's no matter how talented the crew and big the budget, just cannot translate into live action.
  19. Raikkonen
    Yeah, I refer to this version as Scarlet, only reason I'm interested in it.
  20. Raikkonen
    The Scarlet and Mark 2 have my attention.

    Someone out there just said "Damn it, I want all 5 figures but my reward for getting them all is an extra one I don't want."
  22. Raikkonen
    I recall thinking that show had potential and then sucked for me. Different flavours for different tastebuds.
  23. Raikkonen
    With a kid in the lead that's more than enough indication of where this is heading...
  24. Raikkonen
    I'm keen on Wolve and Gambit if the new show continues where the original left off.

    "Hey, it's broken?" "Perfect. Now we can sell it as something else." 😗
