  1. No I don't care how she lost her arm. No I don't care about how she learned of the "green place." No I don't care about how she came to work for Immortan Joe. What I do care about would be a sequel featuring "Empress Furiosa" bringing law & order back to the wasteland.
  2. I didn't watch WW1984 because I'm a knuckle dragging hornball like Animal from the Muppets, I watched it because I actually enjoyed the first one and expected the same level of quality in the sequel. Boy was I wrong. That being said I'm still willing to give Patty Jenkins a chance, as even Spielberg has made some stinkers in the past. It's all a question of where she goes from here.
  3. My only complaint is he didn't pry open the doors with the force and say: "I'm Luke Skywalker and I'm here to rescue you."
  4. I never gave even one wet fart about Voyager because it's entire plot of "Will they ever make it home?" was boring and oppressive especially when it devolved into a worse species of the week than ToS or TNG. The refugees searching for home had already been done before better by Space 1999 and original Galactica and Voyager didn't have the interesting cast, or space battles to hook you like those did. As for Enterprise it suffered from the same problem all prequels do, in that we already know how this all ends so why should I care about what happens in the show? The only mildly interesting storylines they touched upon like the Vulcans not being all that truthful about their intentions, or the birth of the federation were either dropped too quickly or addressed far too late to hold interest. A better follow up to Voyager would have been finding a way to establish a wormhole and explore more of the Beta quadrant that Voyager bypassed to get home. The entire show could have been based on territorial expansion and establishing frontier outposts/colonies alongside other nations like the Klingons, Romulans, or Ferengi using the 19th/early 20th century "Dash for Africa" as historical context.
  5. That seems to be out the window now given what actress Letitia Wright did on twitter with going on a long rambling conspiracy rant possibly while high and or drunk like what Mel Gibson did except she replaced jewish people with transgendered people and blamed them for causing/spreading covid.... Yeah.
  6. This is all for nothing if Michael A. Stackpole isn't involved in some way.
  7. That was James Earl Jones choice. He felt at the time Star Wars and ESB came out his contributions weren't important enough to justify a credit. Back then Voice Acting didn't carry the same gravitas it carries today and was just something actors did to pay the bills until their next full acting role came in. By the time RoTJ came out the franchise was big enough and his voice role iconic enough that he was included in the billing for his work. That all being said Rest in Peace David Prowse.
  8. I said this before and I'll say it again louder. Predator. Pacific Island. WWII.
  9. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the plan in the end. Especially given... Edited to remove spoiler that didn't want to be hidden.
  10. One major reason this game wasn't well recieved had to do with the previous movie tie in game the studio developed... Rambo.
  11. Started playing Banner Of The Maid today. How can I best describe this? Picture a Final Fantasy Tactics style of turn based strategy game set during the French Revolution/Napoleonic Wars, populated by a bunch of busty anime styled waifus, and yet somehow still relatively accurate to history. I wasn't sure of this game at first, but I gave it a shot because l like the time period it's set in and it was cheap($16.99 on xbox). Surprisingly this game isn't just better than it has any right to be, it's just a damn good game! You basically play as Napoleon's little sister who in this world is also military officer trying to make a name for herself on the battlefield. The thing is between missions it plays out like a visual novel where you have to curry favor or take on extra missions between different politcal factions of the revolution in order to get better equipment and supplies for the front which is a neat little twist. The battles play like a typical turn based grid game except each character represents a regiment under their command that faces another enemy regiment in a line battle instead of character on character. So you have skirmishers, line infantry, light cavalry, heavy cavalry, and artillery each with distinctive strengths and weaknesses. You can even promote regiments to become elites like going from an regular line battalion to part of Boneparte's Old Guard. You guys should really check this game out! Edit: Behold Bridget Sharpe!
  12. "Sharing your adventures is a new experience for me." "That's not all we shared...It's disgraceful, you're old enough to be her... her grandfather." "Well, I'm as human as the next man." "I WAS the next man!" "Oh of course... Ships passing in the night."
  13. I will never understand the hatred people had for Uprising(apart from killing off Mako Mori). It felt far more mecha anime like than the original and was to me far more enjoyable. I still think the mental drifting crap is dumb though and only exists as plot convenience to create dumb drama.
  14. So... I broke down and preordered Ms. Enfield here. One day later I found out she's been delayed until January.
  15. Nevermind long time Trek fans, I'm pissed the lazy hack writers ripped off the first Mass Effect game's plot right down to using a million year old beacon to summon a giant space robo tentacle monster that will wipe out all life in the galaxy.
  16. I'll say the same thing I've said before, Boeing screwed themselves. They showed up with an incomplete model that didn't meet the competition parameters, and made a bunch of promises that they would fix the issues later if it got funded. It's a no brainer they lost this competition.
  17. Yeah, sorry if I confused anyone. What happened Brian May watched the British dubbed version of Starfleet X-Bomber back in the day with his kid and became obsessed with it to the point of cutting a mini album covering the music with other musicians like Eddie Van Halen and the drummer from REO Speedwagon. At first he never intended to release it, but in the end did and cut that promo video I posted for it. It ended up making it to Japan where Go Nagai(The robot's creator) saw it on tv. The world is a better place for it being released.
  18. All I can think is North Koreans finally got to see a bootleg copy of The Fast & The Furious.
  19. Van Halen was the guitarist on this with Brian May. It's still not the weirdest thing he ever did.(that might be doing the sound track for three different adult films)
  20. Does the Eborsisk from Willow count as a dragon?
  21. That's how I pretty much remember it. Boring as hell, characters do obviously stupid things that get themselves killed, and the most entertaining thing was storytelling time with the Star Wars re-enactments.
  22. I was looking at the wooden mock up prototype and I have to ask, have you ever considered offering a polished wooden desk top model like the high end ones we typically see on general's desks?
  23. This actually got debated a few years ago and it was decided that the next version of the thread would be retitled "What Anime Are You Currently Watching?" because even back then the thread was being used to talk about what ever anime people were watching at the time wether it was current or not.
