NERV

if i could physically weild them, i would go for some thick carbon plate armor and gatt's dragonslayer sword

ok so the SPAS, since alan grant's jammed and he didnt know to just pump it again, probably were loaded with buckshot, which like i said before, would kill a raptor at close range, but thats about itsome type of thick body armor also wudve been a good idea, something the rapotors wouldnt be able to break thru so even if it attacks you, you can shoot it while its trying to get thru the armor, assuming they dont isntantly figure out to go between the plating

T-Rex weren't the only type of dinos they had on the island. Different weapons for different types. Besides they had chemical contingencies set up for anything that happened. What happened on the island were a bunch of different events set up so that none of the contingencies were usable. It's called plot device.

i tihnk a big gun to take down a big animal would be a good contingency, which they aparently didnt tihnk of

the amino acid was lysene and it was used in the movie but they implied that would take more than a matter of hours, probly days, which wouldnt be very good if the park had bene in full swing with lots of ppl around.

based on the scene where grant fired the shotgun thru the window it would imply that it was buckshot, there were 3 small holes int he glass, which obviously werent shot rounds or a slug but it would be more likely shot.

and i said the shotguns would be ineffective at long range, at close range it would probly kill a raptor, still wouldnt do much against anythign triceratops or larger, the conch shell nerve toxin in Lost World would have been something good to pack, too bad the guy in LW never got off a shot with it

Elephants are often killed by police with pistols. They are also slaughtered by poachers with rifles. Before that, we used spears.

Dinosaurs weren't made of Kevlar.

But wait, exactly how do you know how thick their skin is?

H

rifles and pistole use bullets, they penetrate better, shotgun is a spray of pellets, as i understand it, shotguns are to a rhino what a BB is to a human, yes it can kill if its a wellplaced shot but the chances are ti would just sting and piss it off, and a t-rex is a hell of alot bigger than an elephant, its only logical to think that sometihng liek a T-rex or triceratops would have extremely thick skin, the teeth that the T-rex had to eat other dinosaurs are proof of that, and raptors needed a 6 inch long claw to hunt, no predators these days have weapons that extreme, they were needed back then

Interesting... I always thought that whole 'recreating dinosaurs' was the fake part.

the aquisition of the dino DNA wasnt too unrealistic, but filling in the DNA gaps with frog DNA was kinda dumb, why not collect multipe samples of DNA of the same dinosaur until you have a complete DNA strand?

all they had was shotguns, a shotgun wudnt penetrate dinosaur hid from a distance, and it would only piss off the big ones, like what was their plan for if the T-rex escaped? hope it was friendly and talk it back into it's paddock? who the hell runs a zoo without stocking some powerful tranquilizers?

jwinges, dont put paranoia agent and scryed in the same lump, scryed is like a lame super sentai show, im sure once they introduce all the main characters itll become a monster of the week thing

i cant exactly make out a plot yet, but so far i love the style, animation, and soundtrack, already one of my favorite intros

gainax does tend to put out bizzare yet interesting, quality animation, i am looking forward to see where this series goes.

oh and on the subject of linking anime to pedophilia, ive got a few words:

kite, puni puni poemi, onegai twins, to a lesser extent, mahromatic, and not directly the series, but the results of evangelion and sailor moon, its clearly stated that the eva pilots are 14

Great, I'm a pedophile according to the Canadian police because I like Star Trek. What next? I'm into bestiality because I like anime?

if tentacles count as beastiality then yes

im especially looking for the 05 with wings, my 02 is broke and i want em all now

i thought the p-51 had 3 or 4 guns per wing, i see 2 on that one, was that an early model or something?

when u said aircraft graveyard i was thinking itd be like a car junkyard, lol that place is almost as organized as an airport, if not moreso

uhm... first off the meduim ones had die-cast

second off they sure as heck didn't say "triple change" on the box

i thought there 4, the big ones 1/35, the mediums ones, this one, the small ones that can go with the tread, and another small one with die cast that didnt fully transform, i tihnk it could go to gerwalk but not fighter

how much is it worth... it's worth laughing at. Maybe $50 for the box and stickers for the hard core collector but I wouldn't spend $5 on a loose one myself. MAybe if somebody recasted the tread it would be a useful toy

i dont tihnk thats the one that goes with the tread, i thought the tread goes with the small one, thats the medium one

i got a pair of very similar figure, looks identical size and style, just the arms are adifferent pose and the clor, one of them is like a low vis and the other is clear

edit, oh and mine arent a keychain

thats pretty badass, now do a yf-21, the yf-21 doesnt get enough love

"Vin Diesel plays "The King" in Burger King's Wake Up With The King TV commercials. He is paid in Angus beef. "          Ah Ha!  So it's him!

Seemed like a good opportunity to post my favorite picture ever.

BK's new mascot is the damn creepiest and most disturbing one I've seen. WTF were they thinking when they approved the advertising campaign?!

Yah some of the commericals seems like hes going to kill the person with fatty foods and using the element of surprise on his victoms.
