Part of what makes Venom so cool is the personal confict the Eddie Brock/symbiote have with Spider-Man.

All of the other villians battle with Spidey out of a conflict on the streets, in the bank, or wherever. All the villians have some other plot going on when Spidey breaks in and shuts them down.

Venom, on the other hand, exist soley to break Parker into itty bitty spidey bits. They have no other goal, no other plan in mind. Just Parker and making him pay.

That could make for a rather interesting change of pace in the superhero movie genera.

things I can go to walmart and buy five boxes of ammo

Buying boxes of ammo... in a WALMART?

Uhhh... room... spinning...

*Canucklehead passes out*

Yeah, like it's at all possible to ignore an avatar like *that*

Anyone here going to AX this weekend? There will be a completed Alpha MPC on display in the Robotech booth, along with some gameplay footage from the new game.

*claps his hands over his eyes*

I didn't just read any of that!

All jest aside, you do make several good points and most of them are true. However, it would've been nice to design and actually field some military equipment on our own, since I for one am tired of being the garage sale military country.

Dumb TV execs, take a good concept and mess it up.

So what else is new? SAAB springs to mind for just that reason...

Now if only we could see the Arrow (AVRO CF-105) take off...... that would bring a tear  to me eye  

You're not the only one.

Second that!!!

Triple that, here.

Bah, cancelling that project was probably only a PR move. There's probably whole fleets of them in hidden bases under the Canadian Shield...

Batman TAS had THE best characterization of Batman that I have ever seen, comics included. Batman is the ultimate control freak, and it's only in TAS that that is shown properly.

Most shows and movies show it as Bruce Wayne that puts on a batsuit and goes about at night, with Batman being the lesser of his two sides.

TAS shows it as Batman is the one who wears the costume and goes out during the day, and it's Bruce that is the lesser of the two.

The latter is my favourite definition of Batman, bar none.

I'm wondering what effect a white eyed cowl would look like in the movies.

Probably make the actor blind...

Great stuff, though this should probably be in the Other Anime and Sci-fi forum.

I like the design of it, though there doesn't seem to be much meat to that motorcycle.

She's just asking for something............

Your wallet?

I have a feeling that ironman is gonna be like the rocketeer. But dang, I wonder if jennifer gardner is gonna play elektra again for the Elecktra movie. Good stuff, I can't wait for Spidey 2 to come out!     

yep, she sure is!!! i think they were waiting for Alias to wrap for the Elektra movie to get going....

There was that and I think they wanted to wait to see how their main female super hero rival would be stacking up... meaning Catwoman...

Elektra the movie is currently filming here in Vancouver

Plus the Catwoman project spent about a week in my area filming. I now know exactly why it's called the Midnight Sun light...

EDIT:

I am very eager to see a sequel or two for Daredevil. Ben Affleck, for all the hate he seems to get, perfectly nailed that role. The writing and dialog were much, much better than any other comic book movie to date, and I really appreciated the darker tone to the movie. The darkness fit the character very well. I personally rate DD as the better movie when compared with Spider-Man 1.

that art looks like it has DYRL-controls.

Actually, I was just thinking it was TV-style controls. The left hand in DYRL-style controls is in an enclosed handle, and this pic has a manual thrust control.

Plus the uniform and helmet are all TV-style, so it would make sense that the vehicle would follow suit.

i hope there is a movie after the ova.that would be my wish

There shouldn't be any need for a movie. An OVA story should be complete unto itself, presenting and answering all the questions it intends to. If a show needs a movie to explain a few things, then that's a failure on the part of that show.

How far is a click?

That should be 1 kilometre, I think, not good with these things.

Yeah, "klick" "click" and various other forms are just short terms for one kilometre. Much easier to say, anyway

Shin may die somehow as well.

Oh, don't tease us

Although this isn't saying anything new, I've been singularly unimpressed with Macross Zero. The writing and pacing is off, the direction shoddy at times, the fight coerography leaving much to be desired... Though they had one less episode to work with, Macross Plus was simply much better than Zero ever will be.

I fail to see how 30 more minutes of story can come close to wrapping up all the loose threads that Kawamori and Co. have left us with. And if they do try to wrap them up, it'll all be done in such a rushed and hurried fashion that it'll make for a poor ending to the story.

I strongly suspect we're working our way towards a Deus Ex Machina ending to the story, where everything will be wrapped up in the last five minutes.

I've been looking forward to them making this movie for years, so I just hope that it has

a) Predators

b) Aliens

c) People that die

d) Predators killing mass aliens

e) Cool predator equipment

f) people that die

g) Aliens bum rushing a wounded Predator as it bravely fights on (They call that one Huud'son...)

Besides that, I don't expect much more from an Action/SciFi flick...

that all happened in the trailer, so youve seen it, so why bother seeing the movie?

To see MORE of it, of course

Plus, there's only so much you can make out in a teeny, tiny trailer window on the Internet. The only way to watch a movie like this is on a 30' big screen

QUIT MAKING 30 DIFFRENT PACKAGES OF THE SAME THING!

All they can look at are the profits they can make by having three minutes of unreleased "special" features, which warrents a whole new release.

It's really, really irritating.

There's a big difference between the Terminator movies and the Robotech DVDs - home video rights to the first two Terminator movies were sold around while HG has always retained the right to Robotech.

That still doesn't excuse the sheer number of DVDs out there with pretty much the same content.

If you really want to see some poor-assed DVD marketing, just look at the different types of Terminator DVDs there are.

Original movie

Director's Cut

Ultimate Edition

etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

Whomever is in charge of all these DVDs really needs to get his head twisted on straight. There's only so many times we're going to buy the same freakin' movie!

Actually, I rather enjoyed that trailer. Not a big fan of the huge long claws, but the rest of the Predator's gear doesn't bother me.

Each of the Preditors in #2 had an individual mask and specialized gear. That movie also proved that each of the hunters had their own style of gear, as proved by the different style of shoulder cannon and the fact that Pred. #2 had that disc and speargun weapons, while #1 didn't.

And as for the director, I actually enjoyed Resident Evil. Given that I've never played the game, the movie was a nice way to get intorduced to a slightly warped version of the storyline. The action in RE was pretty enjoyable, and the only reason to go to an Alien or Predator movie is the action.

So overall, I'm looking forward to this movie.

I shall only say, be careful what you wish for 'cause you just might get it.

Don't come whining to us when your eyes burn out and you have to spend the rest of your life walking with a white cane. You were warned in advance.

The idea behind that is that human bone and muscle structure just aren't strong enough to support several tons of weight. A Zentradi-sized human in normal gravity would weigh so much that all his joints and ligaments would literally blow apart due to over-stressing.

Gotta wait for them to be drawn, first

... where's that jaw-dropping smilie when I really need it?

Once again, I'd like to suggest Detonator Orgun. Though it may be an older title, it's still a good mecha show that avoids some of the standard pitfalls of most shows, and even has one helluva plot twist in the middle.

It's currently out on dual-language DVD, but the Japanese language track is much, much better than the English version.

The green hair was a photochop. The original pic, as drawn by Yune, had Dana's normal blond hair.

And speaking of, I do so like those pics. I like how Yune has updated the character designs, while still staying true to the roots. Very nice.
