  1. It's been big news in my area last 24 hours, I live just north of San Antonio not to far. From the sounds of it his house burnt down due to the really cold temps we tend to get over the last few years. He'd been using Propane (no pun intended) to heat up his home but it still wasn't enough. So he and his partner stayed at a hotel to stay warm. He was on his way back to the house to check on his 4 dogs when the house was on fire. Cause of the fire was supposedly determined to be the propane space heater however Joss claimed it was vandalism due to he being gay and often having trouble with various people in the area because of that. I can rather believe the heater being the issue as a very similar incident happened with my dad 6 years ago resulting in his home being burnt down and losing several of his dogs. These things happen when you don't think about it. Now, this incident occurred I think back several months, and you roll into yesterday where he was coming to the property to pick up mail where his dispute with his neighbor began. I find it rather odd he's still picking up mail from an area that's no longer livable and not sent somewhere else. But I guess this so called neighbor has had various issues with Joss in the past, rumors are they'd shot at eachother before, I mean this is Texas and all that. But I guess things went to far this time and here we are.
  2. I dig either or. There's design cues and stylings that would work well on SS86 Megatron from Romulus, at the same time, there's stuff that's on Romulus that's forgotten somehow on Megatron.
  3. I think I'll preorder it. I'm really impressed with his Robot mode....vehicle mode, I mean it's okay, fairly heavy retool of Megatronus though isn't he? Either case, I'll order him as the replacement of my .......15+ year old Hegemon(?)
  4. Do we even know how many episodes are in this series? With the pacing of things lately some of them range from 12-48 and split into segments a year apart. So maybe all this really slow bad pacing and awkwardness is because the show will eventually be split into two segments and just doing really crummy character development.
  5. I haven't seen much for TF figures lately. I see a very small trickle of AOTP, Red Alert and Prima mostly....did come across ONE and ONLY ONE Megatronus/Fallen. Everything else has been TFOne or slightly older product. Hell there's once again an over saturation of SS86 Bee again.
  6. I rather enjoyed the Patterson cut of this, there were some things that kind of bummed me out cause there's some story elements that complete vanish, and scenes, overall pacing, but it wasn't bad at all. It's pretty much the only one of his stuff I've watched, I haven't checked out Kenobi or the Boba Fett two parter at all.
  7. Personally I still rather enjoy Rebels, I mean for me it's Clone Wars, Rebels, Bad Batch, Tales of the Jedi, Underground, Droids, Ewok's, Visions.................then Resistance (see what i did there?) They just have different tones and restrictions to what they can do and budgets and broadcasting compared to streaming services and live action. But I still like it. Overall though I've absolutely adored this season, if anything I love LOVE L O V E the set designs, the backgrounds, the atmosphere, the overall esthetics being used compared to the first season and overall the live action shows in general. The odd thing though is when the Senate building is shown....in the prequels it was felt like it was smacked dab in the middle of a giant city, almost swallowed up. But in many shots of Andor, it's the complete opposite. I'm not sure if I'm articulating the differences accurately, but like lets say in Andor's version of area, it's like I'm looking at the Apple campus, very white, very open, modern, no buildings in sight. It's sort of odd considering Courscant is just one giant towering city of buildings and skyscrapers and speeders and ships.
  8. I mean it's no secret and all that stuff, but I think it's a smart move to keep at it so we can build up to a proper AVP film after those first two dismal movies. Even with the rumors of Alien Earth hading teased a predator in their trailer.
  9. From what I had heard from a contact at Disney, Disney after acquiring FOX did have ideas of a ride or some attraction that was going to be ALIEN themed. But after a long drawn out census and ideas they deemed it was something that would been to terrifying and difficult to pull off. I'm not sure how involved they were wanting to get....there was that non licensed ALIEN WAR attraction in the UK so long ago....could just pull off something like that and would probably been amazing.
  10. didn't think it was terrible. The only thing I have issues with in this series is the need for these clan battles which is just like WfM's lil dueling system and the character designs not matching up to the rest of the animation. Still though, I'll never buy the kits just like how I never bought the mercury or reconguista kits.
  11. SXSW had an AE event booth to promote the series I think back in March. When I heard about it I thought it was gonna be potentially awesome and really wanted to check it out until I saw what ticket costs were and laughed it off. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DG6aHKlvVKS/?igsh=MTJ2dm02OGo0aDJ2eA== I managed to find footage someone took and man, did that seem like a big lack luster.
  12. I do admit that's rather annoying but I don't think this series was supposed to air until August, I can't recall though. What does get to me is how the ship interior is pretty much bit by bit a replica of the Nostromo like you can't just do something rather different. Kind of bums me out a little, I don't mean I hate it, it just doesn't interest me all that much.
  13. I dug the three episodes, 3 being the best one of the batch so far, but episode 1 was interesting. 2 I could not stinking believe
  14. I also just got G2 Grimlock. The local Walmart had him hiding way in the back behind The Fallen, there were also the retro bee and gears and Red Alert, I passed mostly due to budget. gotta agree though the sword not being present is rather a bummer. I’ll be curious to see Toyhax upgrades for him in sticker form, I’ll probably snag them.
  15. ANOTHER Jared Leto casting? Come on : / there had to be a ton more better options to play that role for god sakes. I just don't like this guy at all and what he does....he's been the root behind so many great bad guys and characters going to ass.
  16. Guess this is the project they were discussing at Cinemacon or whatever about sneaking two movies at us.
  17. Oh god don't tell me that! Why did you have to tell me that?!
  18. sigh, I forgot Leto was in this........I can't think of a single property with him and it was outstanding or even really good. Thankfully I don't count Bladerunner cause he's hardly even in it.
  19. Very disappointing that a handheld like this still can't produce actual 4K resolution on its own or something very close unless you dock it. I guess it just takes up to much power or something else, I'm not expert, I just know that for the size and the pricing, that should of been a thing. Now granted there are def. some games I'd be interested in playing on the Switch 2, but I'm just not eager for that 450 price tag right now.
  20. I never really thought about it until now, but his son sounds an awful lot like him.
  21. Sorta confusing for me, I haven't finished the netflix series, probably won't. But it almost seems to me like Daniel in this film isn't exactly in the best place.
  22. I'm going to hold off. I have enough on my plate as it is, and I got more than enough switch games and other games on other consoles to play. I'm gonna dive in hot and heavy like I said when the switch first released a decade ago. Plus this'll allow for any kind of bugs and faults to be corrected later on.
