    What made Boba cool was the fact he outsmarted Han by figuring out he was hiding somewhere waiting until the fleet left, Vader had to take a moment to personally address him regarding "no disintegrations, and he talked back to Vader without repercussions. This was at a time when all we knew about Vader was he had a habit of choking fools who displeased him.

    Will Smith is the only person who could do the Genie role justice after Robin Williams.

    So Midnight's Edge shed a little light on why this film exists, and what they are planning to do with Spiderman once the Sony/MCU deal expires in 2019. Basically the Spidey actor Tom Holland is under contract to appear as Spiderman 6 times. Only 5 of those being under the MCU banner. The next will be under a Sony only controlled production. Sony doesn't like the fact they have zero control of the Spiderman character right now so they want to establish their own SpideyMCU with Venom then insert Tom Holland as Spiderman and pass their universe off as part of the Disney MCU in hopes of cashing in instead of letting Disney make the Spidey movies for them which they profit from despite having no creative control. TLDR: The same idiots at Sony Pictures that screwed up two different versions of Spiderman want creative control back so they can screw it up a third time. Nevermind the fact they take 100% of the profits minus production costs for each solo film Disney makes for them as part of the MCU.

    Sure. Neville Chamberlain was the British Prime Minister before Churchill from 1937-1940. He was so desperate to avoid conflict after the the first world war with Germany he set up a policy of appeasement that outright ignored the Nazis rearming the country, threats against british interests, and the blatant aggression towards its neighbors. This culminated in the Munich Agreement over the Sudetenland Crisis(German territorial claims over Czechoslovakia) in which Chamberlain caved in to every German demand and sold out Czech sovereignty to guarantee "Peace in our time." That deal was in spite the german intent of the negotiations was to provoke a war up until Chamberlain basically gave Hitler everything he wanted without firing a shot. After that the Germans used the Czech industrial base to bolster its forces to the point they could invade Poland and trigger what many acknowledge as the official start of the Second World War.

    They went full Neville Chamberlain.

    No thank you.

    That Gustav Karl looks like a Chinese knockoff of the RX78GP02 or something that would appear in one of the stand alone Super Robot Wars games that features original designs.

    THAT... Is the trailer they should have went with in the first place, and not the original NASCAR Racers in SPACEEEEEEE!!! That they originally showed.

    As much as fans wanted a badass Vader moment that scene should have been cut as it doesn't flow well with episode IV. He goes from leading a boarding action busting in like gangbusters flinging fools and doing the dark souls hack and slash to being the last one through the breach looking around like "Meh..."

    I always thought Magneto's dynamic was being Malcolm X to Professor Xavier's MLK? Both striving for similar goals but vastly differing views on how to go about it.

    This series lost me with the last film when Apocalypse took Eric a jewish man who had his parents killed by the nazis to Auschwitz concentration camp and proceeded to give him a speil about purging the planet of anyone deemed weak or undesirable, mutant or otherwise. Seriously? Look I know his daughter was accidently killed when that stasi guy panicked, but still there's no way in hell a jewish man with the holocaust freah in his mind is going to be "Okay Mr Mutant Hitler, I'll help you with your super powered version of the final solution so your chosen superior race can rule the world!" God that was so poorly handled. Actually there's another thing that bothers me about his potrayal in that film, and how by the end the world regards him as some type of misunderstood hero who actually saved the world. This guy attempts to kill the president, drops RFK stadium into the middle of Pennsylvania avenue, and thanks to Apocalype's scheme has killed thousands if not millions in the cities he leveled, but the movie is like "Yay! Magneto is our saviour!" Never mind the fact he caused most of the destruction. If this were real life the U.N. would have passed a resolution to have him killed on sight for good of all humanity, not forgiven for his crimes and allowed to walk away a free man.

    If the Army and the Navy ever look on heaven's scenes, They will find the gates are guarded by United States Marines.

    Danth did you even read the wikipedia you linked to about social justice warriors? Topics like being against child slavery, war profiteering, and animal cruelty fall under the umbrella of being social progressive which is a bit scary in its own right given things like manifest destiny, eugenics, colonialism, and ethnic cleansing were also views that used to be held by someone who was considered "socially progressive" at some time. As for what a SJW actually is the wikipedia sums that up nice too with the example of someone who is unreasonable, sanctimonious, biased, and self-aggrandizing. For example a SJW is someone who feels compelled to defend the actions of characters like Rose or Holdo simply because they are women in positions of power despite the vast examples of their incompetence and/or idiocy. To the SJW they are above reproach or critism, and anyone who says otherwise is a Mother's basement dwelling neckbeard that needs to grow up.

    It honestly wouldn't surprise me if there was a horse breeding mechanic in the game, or in order to break a horse and ride it you need to have it gelded.

    I've posted this elsewhere, but the stupidity of Last Jedi can be summed up with the fact that pretty much the entire third act and the resistance getting nearly wiped out is because two idiots illegally parked on a beach AFTER they were warned not to and ended up getting arrested for it. Yeah you could say they were in a hurry, but they didn't look very hard before giving up and finding a balcony to take in the sights and give the audience a hamfisted attempt at a PSA on animal cruelty and child slavery.

    Typical Kawamori non Macross show. Nice mecha, ugly or forgettable character designs, and a mind numbing overly complex yet stupidly simple plot that can't get out of its own way.

    Do a google image search for Uguu! Am I cute meme. There is much worse, much MUCH worse out there than Shadow Chronicles.

    Question guys. I found my old Intellivision system from Mattel. Do you guys know if there is anyway to get it up and running on a modern flatscreen TV? It's RF switch is one of those really old ones with the prongs you had to screw into the back of the old TVs. Also if I wanted to stream the gameplay or make a recording what would I need to do to capture footage from my TV and put it on my laptop?

    Open desert and rocky mountains don't make a compelling film. This franchise needs to return to dense and thick jungles just not modern day. It's time to start playing with the fact the preds have been to earth before and set a movie during the pacific campaign of WWII. I know somebody posted a fan film along these lines but I want you to imagine this.... Guadalcanal 1942. All is quiet when the Predator's ship lands in the jungle at night. As he leaves his ship and readies his gear for the hunt his ship is hit and destroyed by naval artillery fire. Stranded and low on weapons he sends a distress beacon and begins his hunt. He observes the aftermath of a battle and sees a US Marine start to take war trophies and golden teeth from the dead Japanese. He becomes obsessed with this one marine as he shadows his unit and begins collecting skulls from both forces who both think it's the other side commiting the mutilations playing up the demonizing propaganda of the time. In the end it comes down to the marine, and a Japanese soldier who was also collecting trophies from the dead and know they've been hunted. In a climactic battle nobody survives and the Preds body is recovered by other preds and no one knows what really happened. There. I'm now a better writer than Shane Black. Go full Saving Private Ryan/Pacific miniseries with the portrayal of war and brutal violence and you have a classic.

    Odd random question, but do scientists have any idea what Halley's comet orbits around to send it back towards the sun every 75-80 years? Exactly how fast and far out into the solar system does it go?

    Finished Maoyu this week. Such a great hidden gem worthy of a second season that you know will never happen. Archenemy is so adorable especially the moment she takes off her demon horns and show's Hero they're just for show or how she gets caught preparing for their first meeting by practicing on a hugging pillow of him. Also started three other series. Amagi Brilliant Park which is fun as all hell to watch, but with the flashbacks the main character is having I'm pretty sure there's going to be a pretty dark reveal about why he's afraid of heights. The next show is How Not To Summon a Demonlord. Definately a guilty pleasure, and I like how the main character has this inner monologue about how he really is versus portraying this demonlord character that was his online gaming persona. Finally I'm watching Record of Grancrest War. Good god the pacing of this show is breakneck! I think it accomplishes in five episode what some fantasy shows take three seasons to accomplish!

    Both were made by Galoob who went on to make the action fleet line for various properties including Starship Troopers which reused the Xpanders figure molds for the heavy weapon troopers.

    Army Gear is what they are called. The canteen was an aircraft carrier.

    99 cents was the "go **** yourself!" offer the prospective buyer made after kajnrig seemingly insulted them. I think what set them off was the lines about not finding it cheaper if you care at all about the box, and being better served elsewhere. I know kajnrig likely thought he was just stating facts but it does come out as standoffish with the "many thanks" at the end looks like a disingenuous F.U. He likely would have been better served saying something along the lines of "I appreciate your interest but the buy it now price is as low as I can go and is non negotiable. Thank you."
