Look forward to hopefully attending. It has been a while.
-
Clarification question. Was everything sold or just the Valkyrie? If this was sold split, I would be interested in the strike armor.
-
Does anyone know if there is a soundtrack to the new Yamato animated movie?

Despite the shortcomings of any series
, I am really looking forward to this as a long time Space Battleship Yamato fan.

Anybody else watched "The Plan"?
The Cylon Plan is... What plan?
Mostly its about Cavil and his micro-managing of the Skinjobs.
Doral/Five got me thinking of the video "We were Centurions".
The bulk of the Colonial fleet on Caprica were Valkyrie battlestar types.
Plus the Basestars show something they didn't do in the series. They can rotate and become arrows for atmospheric entry.
As for the Colony it was shown at the beginning with the Cylon fleet. No classic basestars I'm sorry to say.
It was nice to see the Pegasus again.

I'll have to get back to you on this and look at my schedule. I would like to attend and see everyone.

I'm in Sacramento, but I can possibly come down to the Bay Area. In terms of times, sometime in August or September would be fine.

PM sent about getting one x-large shirt.

Nice design EXO. I don't even think we need the location and dates on there. Not really a fan of wearing dated Tshirts, but having the year is okay.
Great layout. I would also concur with EXO that the bottom line is probably not necessary as well.

KiriK, thanks for organizing this. Per your instructions, I have sent an e-mail.

I stand corrected. Paramount is already moving forward with a sequel.
-
I just saw it and it was great. I saw it on IMAX and it looked fantastic along with being well worth the extra few bucks. If Paramount is anything like Fox in regard to Wolverine, I am sure there will be an announcement of a sequel.

I seriously don't believe there will be any movies. I think BSG will end at the end of S4. I'm not sure you could drag out the "finding a home bit" into movies as well. While it's hardly definitive, almost every cast member interviewed has spoken about the end of S4 with such finality that I don't think a movie is likely. That capped with the fact that we'll probably lose Laura and I wouldn't put it past them to kill Adama either, doesn't lend itself to a movie setting.
We've also got 6 episodes left, a lot of people can die, and the more that do would seem to provide less and less of a reason for a movie. From what I've read the last 1-2 eps are planned to be at least 90 minutes, possibly 2 hours a pop, that's probably the closest thing we'll get to films for BSG. In my opinion, the show doesn't lend itself well to movies, there are too many entwining plot threads. The fanbase is large, but I don't think it's large enough to justify the cost of a full blown film while also requiring movie goers to be current on the plot.
There is still Battlestar Galactica: The Plan which will be released later this year.

My thanks to the folks who started and contribute to this thread. I plan to go tomorrow Saturday for the first time. With the information provided in this thread, I hope to make some smart purchases.

I think it looks good except for the Arishikage symbol being on his uniform. In the old Marvel comics it was a tattoo on his forearm.
I hope he has his trademark uzi also.
Depending on who draws Snake-Eyes, the symbol is both on his uniform and on his forearm as it is on Storm Shadow.
-
So what are people's thoughts about Snake-Eyes?
Larry Hama sends AICN - SNAKE-EYES from G.I.JOE!!! Now with a shot from USA TODAY!!!

Interesting to see how in "Downloaded" that Caprica Six has her own mental version of Baltar. It will be interesting to see how these two will play out in the two part season finale.

To each his own. While my group does media events like conventions and publicity event, I like to focus on service events like children's hospital visits and community fundraisers.

Yeah I think so. Can't wait for the new season. It's one of the few shows that I don't mind waiting for since I know the wait is worth it. I hope they use more of the other super heros beside the main Justice League leadership. They made great use of Green Arrow, Supergirl, and The Question this season I believe. They used them the most I think and one other but not sure.
I really hope they at least have Nightwing show up or bring Doomsday back. Would be cool if they ran through the Light and Death of Superman storyline. They already have Steel and Supergirl in the show.
I agree, that did make the Batman Beyond storylne just a bit creepier. Still now that I think about it, the episode was pretty well done. Nothing really in your fact action wise but loved the character interaction.
Next season in part, will involve a serious Legion of Doom. In other words, if a large group of heroes can unite to try to do good, why can't the villians follow a similar pattern to do evil.

Saw that Anime Expo 2005. Very surprised, but I am curious to how more finalized versions of this particular MPC will turn out.

Two friends of mine participated in a media event put on by entertainment store Stage Nine in Old Sacramento, California. Stage Nine had Kevin Conroy, the well-known Batman Animated voice actor, and a tour suit for Batman Begins. Along with posing pictures with children and adults, both friends helped to judge a children's costume contest. Here are a few images until I have a chance to post more.

My friend, dressed as a Jim Lee Hush style caped crusader, and his wife, the current style Catwoman, pose with a City of Sacramento police officer who handles one of their older show cars.

After the event, the Warner Bros' costumer wanted to grab some pictures of himself on the riverboat, the Spirit of Sacramento, with the Sacramento River bridge behind him.

So, I guess the real question is: What do you do to top these costumes on Halloween?
We wear these outfits at media and service events. So for us, it's like folks in service branches who see each other in their uniforms all the time. Which is funny since police officers and fire fighters like to take pictures with us.
For Halloween, all of us usually come up with something else either original or from another subject. Like at a Halloween party last year, I dressed up as a Crazy 88. However, a bunch of us went in our armor costumes to a big Halloween party put on by a local radio. We were quite popular with guys and gals.

So aside from the costuming, I am sure you must all wonder how is this prop event is related? Well aside from organizing our appearance in costume, Darren planned the construction of a star destroyer set that hangs above the main concession stand in the lobby of the Modesto Brenden Theater. Here are some samples images of what went into the construction.
Construction of the walls in Turlock on Saturday, April 16
On Sunday, April 17, Darren and crew put up these set walls over at the Brenden Theater.
