  1. Oh yes, the foreshadowing was always there, but they did it even worse than In End of the Circle, at least in that they handed it over to Zor. IIRC The attack on Tyrol was the best part of Sentinels and looked like it received the most attention from the animators.
  2. Realistically, due to regulations, we are looking at 20 years before a true reusable "space plane" will be available for commercial usage. That include BFR. Assuming SpaceX get's BFR flying on schedule it's launches will be dedicated to Moon and Mars missions for the foreseeable future. In large part this is due to infrastructure, that doesn't exist, and ensuring the systems are all safe enough for commercial passenger transport. Even using Stratolaunch will take time as there are not a lot of airports that can support the air and space craft. You will see military usage of BFR, or Stratolaunch based designs hitting the world in less than 10 years, but those will likely not be reusable, more like special operations insertion craft that are destroyed after usage, or have a minimal return to base capability.
  3. This will be a competitor to that design. And I bet one of the selling points will the similarity to the existing Apache in terms of much of the interior systems, along with a higher payload amount compared to the Sikorsky Proposal. But it is kind of a moot point, as both companies are owned by Boeing, so no matter which one goes forward, Boeing wins. Boeing will want the Apache follow on to win, as they are the sole manufacturer, whereas the Sikorsky-Boeing they will have to split the work and the money. Though I do think the Sikorksy is the better design.
  4. Oh God, the End of the Circle? Are they F'n serious? That was the most stupid thing Robotech ever did, and I know that is saying something.
  5. Shut your mouth before the mouse hears you and ruins our beloved anime franchises.
  6. If it ain't Mark Hammil, is sure ain't the Joker.
  7. Fans are butthurt but without seeing how the whole thing ties together they are jumping too soon. This is an issue with the show's format. It is too short to tell the story properly. There are so many threads and side stories from the books that are left out that will tie into the book series ending and make things cleaner, though still GRRM messy. Why anyone is surprised that
  8. So basically it's an updated, modern Cheyenne. It even has the big wings, belly turret and intakes.
  9. It is awesome, if he could just do the post-processing to make it mesh visually with the original footage better (color correction, film grain, etc...) that would be epic.
  10. Signat It's stamped Signapore. Like I said, looks complete, all stickers applied, just mistransformed in the pictures.
  11. I have an opportunity to get a heavily yellow red Gakken Legioss. Looks complete other than the gun and figures, but has the pilot in cockpit. How much should my max offer be?
  12. The artwork is even getting worse, again. The blatant tracing now includes original japanese artwork with kanji annotations. And, they've starting to use default power heads and bodies.
  13. Another cool film, not as clean though. We have the F-4's little brother, the F3H Demon, the F4D Skyray (I love this design, so sci-fi), the F-7U Cutlass (such a funky one), and the A-4D Skyhawk (the scooter is my buddy Kevin's favorite plane). I love 50s fighters like these, they look so sci-fi and have such, just cool designs. But this really illustrates how small that deck and elevator were. The Demon had to be at an angle on the elevator.
  14. Great video. All the audio was obviously dubbed. Those Essex class weren't big, barely largely, in deck space, then modern LHAs and LHDs, but then they were refit WW2 carriers designed to carry little prop jobs. I would have hated to be a pilot on one with so little deck space. Imagine being on an F-8 and ahead of your nose gear as they guide you about. Then those tiny elevators, no thanks. Still, they were remarkable ships. Cool to see the F4D ops, but they never announce them or the AD-1. And at least one of those F-8s was an RF-8.
  15. Another potentially leaked plot. Basically it's Dark Empire with JJ Flare. Seems better than the other "leaked" plot, but still weak overall. I have a feeling that Disney might be "leaking" multiple plots but none of them will be real.
  16. If this true, then Star Wars is well and truly dead. The only way to bring it back will be to *shudder* reboot it. But hear me out on that. With a good writing and directing team at the helm *cough* Dave Filoni *cough* it could be done right, erase the issues with prequels, fix some of the plot holes of the OT, and wipe out the mess that in the Sequel Trilogy.
  17. So wrong, on so many levels.
