Solo: A Star Wars Story, in theaters May 25, 2018
renegadeleader1 replied to Dobber's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
People who whine about Ray annoy me and forget that Star Wars has a long history of strong capable women. If you take out the two Death Stars and Alderaan blowing up you'll find Leia is actually responsible for more kills than anyone else in the original trilogy. -
The predator series has so much possibilities for potential films. So many different time eras, locations, and warzones you could set it in and still be compelling. Instead we get this turd. It's much worse for the Alien franchise. After Aliens showed what military grade and some civilian grade(pump action shotgun) weaponry could do to a xenomorph the consensus among the the film makers was "How do we gimp the humans to make the xenomorph a threat again?" They answered this by at first rehashing the original by placing it in a confined setting with little to no weaponry, but that didn't sell so they just decided to make everyone dumb as bricks with as much life preservation as a lemming pretending to be the dumb bimbo that always dies first in a Friday the 13th film.

Anyone care to make a wager? I bet L33T goes on to become the Falcon's computer that 3P0 says has a very peculiar dialect in ESB. -

Reminding people that this film is being directed by the guy who did the one MCU film the other films like to pretend doesn't exist is probably not a good idea. This movie looks like a** and changing the basic Predator plot from alien hunting humans for sport to using humans to advance their own genetic evolution is dumb.

Snake-Eyes - G.I. Joe Origins
renegadeleader1 replied to Old_Nash's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Having just watched Retaliation again the other day I can attest to this. All in all it's not a bad action movie and the plot is 100% GI Joe schlock. The three things it had going against are its connections to the first movie instead of starting fresh, the meager budget it had, and the decision to kill off 99% of the named Joes in a hamfisted attempt at a soft reset 5 minutes into the film. -

Having been to San Francisco, it won't be the city workers, but the zombie horde level of homeless people there that will strip that stuff down for what ever they can get at the recycling center. -

You're complaining about this when Dr. Strange had a single origin film, then a small cameo in Thor Ragnarok, and yet went on to play a massive part in Infinity War? -

Gundam Show Thread - MSG thru GQuuuuuuX
renegadeleader1 replied to Black Valkyrie's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I strongly disagree that Char is some type of "noble demon" If anything he has always been presented as a twisted evil sociopath. From the way he deals with Garma to dropping his Zabi feud to go after Amuro only to go back and kill Kycillia on a whim. By Zeta he basically goes out of his way to sabotage and abandon the AEUG cause all over a petty grudge with Haman. The way he treats Mineva is creepy at best and you get the feeling he'll put a bullet in her head given the chance. By Char's Counterattack he's dropping asteroids on earth killing thousands if not millions. Not because he truly believes in his father's cause of moving humanity into space or to take revenge for Lahlah's death, but just to draw Amuro out into a final battle just to see who has the bigger balls. There's also the fact he basically nudges and manipulates selfish brat Quess into becoming a new type weapon just because he can.- 3803 replies

The History of Robotech by Toy Galaxy
renegadeleader1 replied to no3Ljm's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
The safe bet would be that HG did send Hasbro a cease and desist back in the 80s given what we know from the 90s Playmates/HG vs Fasa case. In that case Fasa had tried to claim HG didn't do due diligence in defending its rights until HG produced evidence of them sending cease and desist letters since 1985 and having a long term correspondence about not using the designs. If they had been going after Fasa since 1985 there's little doubt in my mind they went after Hasbro in the same time period.- 72 replies

I don't have the exact number off hand, but I do know it's not a lot. It's basically the same as what the original deal was for without any adjustments for inflation. This is pretty much the real reason behind behind the HG Tatsunoko rift. Tatsunoko is basically given away the rights for peanuts and the new owners there aren't happy because they know they can get more just shopping it around.

Per the recent court settlement between HG and Tatsunoko, Tats gets everything including the copyrights. The only exception is the word Robotech.

No. The Eva references are only superficial homages. If anything this film feels closer to Getter Robo, Mazinger, and Dai Guard than NGE.

I plan on buying some of the HG kits Bandai just put out after seeing them at Anime Boston. I especially like the Braver Phoenix the big bulky brawler he is.

This sounds more like Sucker Punch knockoff than anything else.
