    I'm so sorry.

    And since we've got the Commodore crowd in here... my first COMPUTER was a TI 99/4a. 16-bit power!

    What, not a Studio II? A Channel F? An ODYSSEY? You're just another newb like all the rest of us.

    Heck yeah! I loved that show!

    Nice until the joysticks broke thirty minutes later. But seriously, that's a sexy piece of hardware.

    Hawt. Mine was a Vectrex. Original GCE version.

    Because it was AWESOME! ... When I was six. As with most of us, I had pretty poor taste as a kid.
  8. JB0
    Interested, but broke.

    Damn rich kids! (At this point, getting some flavor of TurboGrafX is on my short list of things to do with my collection.)
  10. JB0
    Also that.

    I still don't understand why it was called Gatchaman. I enjoyed the show for what it was, but was bugged that they put the Gatchaman name on something so clearly unrelated.

    I had a Super Nintendo, and was pretty darn sure it was the RIGHT choice. Having matured somewhat since then, and actually LOOKED at both sides... I have a lot more respect for Sega than I used to.

    He's still missing the swirly bits to the sides.

    I'm starting to suspect they're doing V2s of everything on purpose. So they can tap the accureate and "needs more curves" markets both. ... Or just so they can sell everyone two copies of the "same" figure.

    In fairness, Scrounge isn't completely pulled out of their backside. He's one of those comic-book-only characters that never had a toy. But at least he was an AMERICAN comic book character instead of one of those weird british ones like Impactor. And he had a special arm!

    Oh, the second half of the 4th one is wall-to-wall action. Classic Micheal Bay mispacing. The first one is just painful. It's all bad writing and almost no robots shooting robots. What little action IS there is edited so haphazardly you can't even tell what's going on. The second one at least delivers on the promise of robots shooting guns at each other.

    I'm sure there's one lurking around here somewhere. I know I've seen people insisting the live-action movies are great and what is anyone complaining about. With some serious putting of words in mouths and grand warping of reality to make their points. I maintain the less-unpopular opinion that each subsequent installment is less bad than what came before, and if the trend continues they are dangerously close to actually making a movie worth watching.

    Cue the live-action defenders explaining how it proves the cartoon was dumb crap for kids and the new ones are for mature adults.

    Did it? I REALLY don't remember Lost World, then. I just remember T. Rex Eats San Diego, and T. Rex: His vision's based on movem-never mind.
  20. JB0
    They never DID get the T. Rex trying to eat them through a waterfall scene filmed.

    Personally, I'm waiting for the G2 redecos. </trollin'>

    Yeah, XKCD bad. Seriously, the difference between the original and remake version is like ONE just wanted to make sure he had both ends of the quality scale covered. And, well... every so often, any mention of Mac7 starts a pages-long flame war. Not as often as it used to, but... Keith: That's just what the imperialist anthropocentric Basara claims! The winners write the history 'toons, and who's to stop them from editing it all?!?!
  23. JB0
    Ah, but history is written by the victors. What might a Macross 7 from the Protodeviln say?
  24. JB0
    Pretty sure you're reading the remake. The original looks like a close relative of the american manga series XKCD. And I wasn't trying to start the next Macross 7 war here. I think even it's biggest fans can admit that a few of Fire Bomber's songs were played WAY too frequently.

    The One-Punch Man comics are amazing, and I'm delighted to see it getting animated. (And I note from your statement about easy on the eyes that you found the "remake" version instead of the original, which is best described as "scribble-y") Symphogear... is perhaps charitably described as an acquired taste. It's better than a show explicitly designed to maximize album sales had a right to be*, but that may be damning with faint praise. *It's at least better metered than Macross 7 was. No catchy and enjoyable songs being rendered insufferable like Planet Dance.
