    In reaction to Coop: 5: I actually like these, nice cosplay toy, oversized, yes, but still fun 4: Agree 3: Agree 2: Fun Cosplay blaster, bad usability 1: I like the deploy, hard to mod, but great cosplay potential as Mass Effect Shotgun with how it folds up and out.

    Simply beautiful, the model SDF and the model holding it.

    The J-20 design appears optimized for front quarter stealth and high speed. It's a missile truck. Run in fast with minimal detection, drop your load into the AWACS, tankers and front line bombers then beat feat out of there. It doesn't matter if they see you on the egress because you're running behind a wall of radar, sam and AAA.

    That Star Destroyer kit looks amazing, I may get one. Has there been any indication of they will release any X-Wing or Y-Wing tie in toys for Rogue One? New or old sculpts. My youngest is really into Star Wars now, and while he has an old school X-Wing, really wants a Y-Wing. The problem is, unless you want a totally beat to hell one that is missing half its parts they can get up to $100 even out of box.

    Sorry it's so low Res David, but at least it's both of them.

    Don't enter the mac cult, they are overpriced, underpowered, unable to be expanded, and extremely limited in what software they can run. Dual booting the machine with Linux isn't a bad option though.

    So, I have not seen Gundam Origins yet, and I love UC Gundam. Is it retconning things? The previews I've see show GMs and Guncannons, which were developed concurrently with the RX-78 Gundam. Is the series now saying that they came before it?

    I have not caught up on this season yet of any of these shows, is flashpoint still going on, or as he repaired the timeline yet?

    A-7s are probably the second loudest plane I have ever encountered. That round pipe and oval exhaust are a big reason for that. I would bet money at the A-7 would have been quieter. The loudest plane, frigging F-35. Everyone on EAFB new when that plane spun up, it was super loud, even louder than the C-17s on the ramp next to our building.

    Nice progress, will be interesting to see where this leads.

    I wouldn't say that SW7 was crap, but it definitely didn't live up to the hype. It was just another JJ retread, sorry I am not one of the JJ Abrams fan boys. They didn't want to take any risks or go anywhere knew, so just remade SW4. Not a horrible move, but it could have been better. R1 on the other hand looks really good, and I have faith in Gareth Edwards, he is a talented director. Do we already know the story? Of course, but I trust the direction he will take it in. It looks interesting and should be a star WARs movie, can't wait.

    Loved those back in the day, still drawing?

    Watched this again last night, still enjoyed it far more than Into Dorkness. It was a fun movie all around that respected classic trek while still being new and exciting. Karl Urban was fantastic, as were all the actors, they nailed the characters. Even my wife, seeing it for the first time, noticed the myriad Macross nods and homages in the movie.

    The new series starts this week I believe. I would kind of like if it was a continuation and he was the original Mac's son, get some RDA cameos in there every once in a while. Been watching the original series again lately too, it was a cool show.

    I enjoyed the movie for what it was, and seeing the deleted scenes feel that leaving some of those in would have benefited the film. They added a lot of character depth, especially to the younger, core X-Men. Just like so many of the recent superhero films however they left too much on the cutting room floor, things that would have improved the movie for just a few extra minutes of run time.

    She's really Countess Elizabeth Bathory, and bathes in the blood of the innocent

    SDF 1:700

    Knight26 replied to Norman41's topic in The Workshop!

    This project just amazes, can't wait to see it all put together.

    My thoughts on this movie. http://noblestorm.blogspot.com/2016/08/ghostbusters-2016-review.html

    I will be there for sure, looks like a truly interesting and intelligent sci-fi film. Love this new wave of smart, fall sci-fi.

    Hmm, interesting. So will Supes appear in JL at all then? I figured he would show up at the very end at least.

    I attribute the low box office to a couple of factors: 1: Into Darkness was such a mess that it turned away a lot of fans, casual and hardcore. 2: CBS/Paramount lost a ton of goodwill with fans with the Axanar lawsuit. 3: Bad marketing. The first trailer was horrid and scared many people off, the second one helped, as did Simon Pegg's personal campaign, but still. 4: Anton's death. Believe it or not I know people who refused to see the movie because of how soon his death was in relation to the release. 5: Market saturation. There have been so many big blockbusters this year already that people are kind of burnt out. Ultimately, Trek 4 is in danger of not happening. This movie may see a comeback in home video sales, which if Trek 4's only chance. In truth though Trek belongs on the small screen. This movie would have made a phenomenal 2 part trek episode, which honestly is what it felt like. The early feelings on ST:D though have a lot of fans nervous, so that show will have to hit it out of the park. That fact that CBS is making it the flagship of their own streaming service isn't helping. CBS/Paramount need to get back into the fans' good graces, and if ST:D doesn't do it then we will see a lapse in Trek for years to come. Which might be what it needs. Trek took a rest for over a decade between TOS and TMP and came back strong.

    At the same time it could be that she turned bad again, or died upon their return. Also, the lack of Gordon even being mentioned is interesting. Unless they announce casting someone as him in future installments I'm going to say he's dead too.

    Finally saw this move this weekend with the wife, ultimate edition. I enjoyed it, had some messy plotting at times, but in the ultimate edition everything worked. Looking at what ended up cut for the theatrical edition, I can understand the hate. Almost all of Lex's plotting ended up cut, messing up the whole structure of the narrative. It's still a very Snyder movie, and could have done with a bit more levity. Also, it would have been nice to see Batfleck make the connection of Supes' ID himself. Lex, hate to say this, is the best live action Lex to the movies. Yes, he is too crazy, but at least he isn't a crazy real estate mogul, he's a tech/industrial billionaire like in the comics and 'toons. I loved the 90s toon version of Lex, plotting, ruthless, and working through intermediaries to get things done while keeping his hands clean. I would have liked to have seen that Lex, and it could have been done, they were almost setting that up, all he needed was another puppet or two to pull it off, we saw him being the puppet master, so why not take it that final step? Now, I have a theory of how the Nolanverse Bats could still be Batfleck. Hear me out. Yes, they are different actors, but think of it like how the art style changes in comics, Jim Lee characters don't look like John Romita's. We know from DKR that Bruce is alive, and that Robin replaces him in Gotham. We also see that Robin is dead in BvS. We can assume that the Joker is alive and free after DKR, he goes out and starts forging more of an empire for himself, becoming the Leto Joker in SS, who then kills Robin, leaving Gotham defenseless. This prompts Bruce to come out of hiding, without Selena (for reasons unknown). We'll probably never get a good reason why, but Wayne comes back, and steps up being Batman again too. After many years of batmaning again he's getting burnt out leading to Man of Steal and BvS. This also plays into his line about how many good guys are left (Robin's death), and how many stayed that way (Harvey Dent/Two Face). I'm also not discounting the idea that Leto's Joker could be a twisted/turned Robin. Anyway, just a thought.
