  1. LOL, I was out before they left the atmosphere!! After the 100th "That's not how that works!!!!!!" I hit the eject button.
  2. A Vampire movie I really enjoyed. I think mostly because it seems like people would really react.
  3. Maybe I need to watch the show again! Is the plural of kuruma (car if Google did me right), kuruma?
  4. Yikes. Sounds like a good one to snooze though on a lazy rainy Sunday. I'd only gotten through the first two episodes and was hoping that it would get better. From the sound of it I got the best part. Thanks for the heads up.
  5. I guess my issue is that while the concept was cool.......it just didn't translate well (for me). Good point the the subtitles......
  6. I have the Beagel's. That would be one huge Shock Trooper!!!!!
  7. Thanks! I guess I really was mis-remembering. Now that I'm looking at it that makes sense. They were a lot bigger than the Ride Armors. Not the Legioss (which you didn't see a whole lot of in the show.....if I remember correctly). I'd like to get a couple of these for my Mospeada shelf........to go with my way too small Sentinel Legiosses (did I make that plural correctly?).
  8. But in the last 4-5yrs the entertainment industry has gone hard woke. Maybe to you. There are a LOT of people that are sick to their back teeth of getting messaging (no matter what it is and if they agree with it or not) shoved down their throats while they're trying to watch entertainment though. You need to expand your perceptions of other people past your own narrow views and categories. People are more complex than a few labels or talking points. You just took a huge leap, stuck me in a category based off of very little information, and you're completely wrong. I could go on forever about why I'm almost certainly more socially liberal than you are and most woke people in general. But I'll sum it up with this. One of my three best fiends is trans. I'm in her award winning documentary that you can watch on NF right now. Sounds exactly like a "Good ole boy" would do huh? BTW my trans friend thinks woke messaging has gotten way out of hand too and actually thinks it's hurting her community more than helping. But who is she to have a qualified opinion? It's not like she gets big bucks for speaking engagements and just got two huge advances on book deals. Expand your mind.
  9. Am I mis-remembering the show (It's been almost 40yrs since I have seen it). I remember the Shock Troopers being bigger than the Legioss. And MEP is saying that they will be smaller than in this pic? I can't find any art with Google showing how they stack up as far as size goes. Does anyone have something like that? Thanks!
  10. Thank you sir.
  11. Ok, so Tenet came on HBO so I gave it a shot. I made 50% through. The wife made it about 25%. Either I'm really dumb (possible), or that movie was just plain confusing. Or maybe I didn't feel like working that hard to watch a movie. I generally give Nolan stuff a little wiggle room. There wasn't enough wiggle room in the world to make it through this one. And people give Snyder a hard time for making pretty movies with bad stories............Why the sail boats!?!?! Was it because they looked cool? I thought I was watching a older Bond movie for a minute there.
  12. Clicked off two episodes of Jupiter's Legacy on NF last night. Too soon for a review. But I like where it's going as a story. A little more thought provoking from a moral standpoint than most super stuff (IMO). What really shocked me is that it is decidedly not towing the PC Police/Cancel Culture/Woke direction that is in just about everything to one extent or another these days. In fact, it rails against it. I was shocked when the main protagonist (in theory the good guy) called Antifa Nazi's (it is implied he was talking about Antifa) and the newspaper people useless Marxists that do nothing for society. And 25% of the cast isn't gay or trans. And racism hasn't been mentioned once. A quick Google search shows that it's not getting great reviews. Shocker. Not the glaring score spread like Chappelle's latest NF special but on Rotten Tomatoes Jupiter's Legacy has a 40% critic and 64% audience score (audience scores tend to go up as time wears on too). I've found that when things aren't "woke enough" the critics score is quite a bit lower than the audience score. I can't help but wonder if this is a test balloon for NF. Social engineering is interesting to watch.
  13. Nice!
  14. I'm a little lost here. Are any of these Inbit/Invid bad guys that pictures are being posted of ready to go assembled and painted figures? Or are they DIY situations? Thanks
  15. sqidd

    Test

  16. Nice. I wasn't too impressed with the MB's. Too small. I like figures to be at least 10". Way too small for the $$$$. I prefer a more anime accurate look. And I really didn't think the quality was all that. I sold them. Sounds like the ThreeZero units are a winner! I may actually end up selling my RAH's and Dynaction units. I only have so much space. Having a ton of EVA's unfortunately doesn't work for me. Thanks for the info/review.
  17. Agreed.
  18. Red and blue can work really well. This is a fantastic race livery.
  19. Ah, screw it. I just ordered the ThreeZero Unit 01 and 02. Any news on when unit 00 goes on PO?
  20. Watched Shadow and Bone on NF with the wife. Despite being beaten over the head constantly with "racism bad" (yeah, we all know/agree, you don't have to keep reminding us though. I'm here for entertainment, not a lesson) it was enjoyable.
  21. I hope Bandai releases the 00 in the new Dynaction line. I alreday have the 01 and 02 RAH's and the Dynaction 01 (pics of 02 released). I'm not getting the ThreeZero's too!
  22. @RedComet has a VF-1 with a damaged leg that is basically junk. He may be willing to sell you that swing bar.
  23. So you prefer a reptile in a ninja suit? Think about that for a second. A reptile............in a ninja suit! We need to get Godzilla a tuxedo.
