    Ok, let me get this straight. You are not pressing with digital distrubution (ie kindle, nook, epub) becuase you don't think social networks will last forever? Then you only order a print run of 50 books, making any copies rare and hard to find? You do realize that a digital edition would cost far less and would reach a much wider audience? It can also create a demand for a print edition, or additional print runs. You are really limiting yourself by not putting on Kindle Direct Publishing at a minimum.

    I want to know more about this movie, quit teasing and give us something more to wet our appetites.

    Speaking of Clone Wars, I was in Target today and spotted a lego kit that looked like a fricking E-Wing. It said it was some clonetroopers stealth fighter. WTF? Does that mean now that they put the E-Wing in the Clone Wars canon, and therefore it, and the Z-95 are canon starfighters now?

    I could tell you, but you know... Actually it was heading down for depot level repair work. Also since Congress refunded RQ-4 Blk30/40 the U-2/TR-1 fleet is getting ready to be stood down. Bad ass picture. Once I get the knew computer I will have to make a render with my designs copying it.

    I love that guy(s)' style, he/they did that awesome Dr Who anime too. I think it looks great and would make a nice counterpoint to the clone wars style. It actually fits the OT style more IMHO. Personnally though, I still want a Rogue Squadron animated series.

    I'm surprised they didn't "leak it" or have someone "hack" it out of their computers, lol.
  7. Knight26
    Hmm, will have to check it out too.

    I've seen most of those movies, and know who Skerkis and Von Sidow are, obviously, it's just the others I didn't recognize at first. So speculation on who they all will play?
  9. Knight26
    In the OT yes, but all the mains in the PT were known actors, for the most part, and those that weren't were rightly so *cough* the anakins *cough*

    I have no idea who most of the people on that list are, is that a bad thing?

    In regards to the discarding of the EU, it really is the best way that Disney/LF could go with pursuing future movies. The EU canon has gotten way too convoluted, especially post NJO, where I stopped reading. Timothy Zahn put up a very good post on facebook about the issue as well. In reality what will probably happen is much like what Star Trek did when it started the films and later series, they will pick and choose from the EU novels to decide what is canon. The writers of said books will then be given the option, maybe, to retcon/rewrite their material to fit into the revised canon. Let's just hope these movies are good and JJ doesn't piss all over them like he did with Star Trek.

    They could have used an original design, ie not the manga design, but did they just have use crappy man amps with guns on articulated arms like that? That just looks stupid, almost worse than Verhovens StarShip Troopers, there I said it.

    Ah yes the Typhoon Tit tanks.

    very cool to hear. Can you reuse the test plastic, melt it back down, or is straight to the recyc center with it?

    OMG MegaForce was one of my favorite movies as a kid in the 80s. It was so horribly cheesy and filled with cool, over the top, garrish as hell vehicles. I even made up my bike to look like the flying bike, complete with wings and missile launchers. Now I cringe whenever I see it, lol.

    Well I have figured out what replacement I am going to get. A Sager NP8278. It is equipped and cooled in a similar way to the lower end G750 and is about $100 cheaper. I have a limited budget. I am happy with the choice, should be under $1200 out the door since Xotic doesn't charge tax or shipping. BUt since I live in Cali, I will have to wait a little longer for shipping, no biggie. At least I won't have to give this craphole state any money for it.

    very cool, need more pictures though. Does it actually transform or is it now just in battroid mode?
  18. Knight26
    I have some time to shop around for my replacement Laptop, what do people think of Sagers in general, good, bad?

    The 25 moments video is interesting, especially its implications

    It looks like my old ASUS G60 has finally bit the dust. I went on an overnight trip where it came on in bag and I think that might have overheated it. I can't get it to load up windows, but it will come up in safe mode, nothing I do seems to help. So I think I might have finally cooked the already overtaxed video card, ugh... The hard drive at least appears intact, and I have not yet had a chance to open it up yet and look inside. I even tried the AVG rescue CD, which has worked in the past, but that did nothing for it this time. Anyway I am looking to replace it and am thinking the Asus G750, but I have a price limit so am looking at the lower cost option for it, likely last years model. I really like the hardware and cooling options on it. I have had too many laptops overheat on me so I am all over the G seris dual fan and exhaust design.

    So is this the conclusion or what?
  22. Knight26
    Well that confirms something our LT said at work the other day. They are using real locations for these movies, and they are already starting on Planes 3, which will be set at Edwards.

    *pokes dead horse with a stick* Yep been beaten again, recently too by the looks of the flies.

    Well, the emphasis of that statement might have been "cruel." Godzilla, as stated, is a force of nature, unless you count those crappy 70/80s ones where he gives hugs. Forces of nature don't care about right or wrong, they just are. There is no cruelty.

    As much as I bag on the "mecha" designs for this movie I want it to be good. I want it to do well. But I want everyone who comes out of the theatre to say: "Damn that was awesome, but how come they didn't have any blasted armor on those suits?" Then I want Hollywierd to freaking listen to those comments the next time they do a movie in this genre.
