  1. Know what?... I don't hate it but I don't like it enough to buy one.
  2. The Rotten Rat getting its filthy mittens on Anime, more than likely to bestow its now-infamous brand of "tender loving care" upon it like they did with Star Wars and Marvel and Willow and Indiana Jones and many more, fills me with dread for this most-Japanese art form and story telling. By no means is this immediate distrust uniquely relegated to Disney; every American studio has had a terrible track record on this front, be it animation or live action: For every Alita or One Piece, there are dozens of examples of complete (on many levels) failures.
  3. Some easy money... lord knows, most new movies aren't cutting it in paying the bills.
  4. Given Current Hollywood, that is pretty much the only franchise/IP that is making good on that goal...
  5. I haven't been into anything of this sort, other than the rare automotive diecast, in years but this has my undivided interest, so much so that I can taste it. 🤤 The one thing that gives me pause is the sticker price on that glorious Viper...

    Octos and Cheyenne would be very nice too... Major pipedream; we all know those will NEVER happen; heck, we're still waiting for the Tomahawk and Phalanx from OG Macross to see the light of day.
  7. I'd call it a cash grab if, given the gag in the original, that wasn't the entire self-aware point...
  8. Since there are no examples of their not having F'd up or severely diminished IPs/studios they've acquired, some immediately, others after a few outings, and even their own legacy stuff (Snow White being their latest abomination) gets plundered, I'd posit that it's much closer to always than usually. Disney is a content singularity. It consumes everything it can in order to grow and, in the process, shreds everything it eats into unrecognizable particles.
  9. The first one was... okay(?). The sequel... I refuse to formally acknowledge its existence.
  10. Cautiously intrigued and assiduously withholding any opinion or judgement until it either impresses or disappoints...
  11. Came in looking for updates -- I'd settle for rumors and minor crumbs -- on the VF-5000 Star Mirage and I'm leaving disappointed...
  12. Not only more -- number of dedicated fans vs "professionals" working for the Mouse makes it a given -- but superior in almost every single way except polish.
  13. Leagues better and more authentic all around than Bane's appearance on BoBF
