  1. MUH EYES!!! IT BURNS! IT BURNS!
  2. And embarrassing! I just froze because I could remember the lyrics. Bless her heart. She then asked me to sing anything and I told her blushing deep red at this point I'm more a rapper than a singer which got her to say something in Japanese ending with "yo baby yo baby yo!"
  3. So remember when I mentioned I was interviewing the singer of the opening of Yurucamp? Well the panel is over and I found out she's something of a Macross fan, and absolutely adores May'n and she's the reason she became an anisong singer in the first place. She started breaking out into singing songs from Frontier and Delta, then she asked me what Macross song I liked. I told with a a blush Mari's My boyfriend is a pilot because I couldn't think of anything else to say. She then tries to get me to sing it with her. She's a sweetheart!
  4. Well my hockey panel is set for Friday at 11:00pm to midnight in room 206 if anyone is interested. Also I'll be moderating/interviewing new singer Asaka who did the ending theme for Occultic Nine, and the opening song to Yurucamp at 2:00pm Friday also in the same room 206. Saturday I'm moderating/interviewing the InuYasha Retrospective panel at 10:00am featuring Japanese producers Hideyuki Tomioka, Michihiko Suwa, writer Katsuyuki Sumizawa, and musician Kaoru Wada in the constitution room A of the Sheraton hotel. Don't be afraid to stop by and say hi or ask some questions!
  5. Watching InuYasha, Keijo, Valkyrie Drive and Hundred currently. Only one of those is for legit research purposes.
  6. Went to see it today to make up my own mind about and I have to say it was good. Damn good! I liked this one a hell of a lot more than the first one. The trailers didn't do this movie justice, but they at least did succeed in not giving away the plot in them which is kind of surprising. It also really felt like the people that made this really wanted to make it a love letter to mecha anime more so than the first one did.
  7. We'll talk after the results from the Chinese box office come in. That market is the sole reason we even got a sequel in the first place.
  8. I get to interview the woman who sings the opening this Friday.
  9. That was the set I had. Shame that two years after I had it built it rusted out. That's why I always prefered legos or construx to director sets, they last longer.
  10. Hey everyone! Anime Boston is nearly upon us again! I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again! Unlike in the past I'm not hosting many panels this year aside from my Japan, Ice Hockey, and the Asia League one. Funny enough I'm actually working the convention this year so if you see me running errands or working in a guest panel don't be afraid to say hello!
  11. So guys Anime Boston is coming up and I was looking at the guest lists and Asaka is one of the musical guests. Are any of you familiar with her? She seems fairly new and I don't know much about her.
  12. Take the job for a month, hide everything you want the first day in the back, and when everything hits 50% off clearance use that plus employee discount then quit.
  13. This might be a New England thing, but honestly I miss Child World closing more than I do Toys R Us closing.
  14. I just don't care anymore, and this is coming from a guy who took his screen name from the ESB radio drama. Ever since the prequels came out and Lucas started tinkering with the originals to the point of adding Hayden Christensen to RoTJ little bits of the kid in me who looked at Star Wars as something kind of magical has completely eroded away. The Last Jedi was a stupid mess and this Solo film has train wreck written all over it with a guy that doesn't look, act, or sound like Harrison Ford. I'll probably see it and episode IX, but I'm beyond really giving a crap about the franchise anymore.
  15. I see you guys upset about this movie and I would feel for you except for the fact I didn't think the first film was all that good. And the way they controlled the mechs with some metaphysical mental linking B.S. was just dumb as all hell.
  16. But...but...but it looks generic and a bit fugly!
  17. Since we are long past the point of spoilers and nobody really answered the second half of your question I'll take a stab at it. The reason why it was safer for Trevor to explode the plane in the air is the wind will dissipate the poison gas the bomber was carrying and completely reduce its effectiveness. Had it exploded on the ground there's a good chance Trevor, his crew, everyone on the base, and Wonder Woman herself might eventually succumb to the gas. Remember not only is the gas highly explosive its also extremely corrosive. Gas masks would have offered no protection.
  18. That works for me if we end up getting more 1/144 scale GM variants.
  19. The old Bantam novels handled this well. In them he falls in love with a drug addicted slave working for the Hutt's spice processing racket. Thank's to Hutt factional in fighting he is able to free her, but she goes through withdrawal and leaves him ending the relationship badly. She later turns as a member of the rebel alliance and tries to recruit him to take down her former slavers on behalf of the rebels. Still heartbroken and feeling betrayed he only helps on the condition he gets paid. In the end she betrays him and takes all the money to fund her rebel group. Destitute Han takes the smuggling job from Jabba which fails and is why he has a price on his head in ANH and why he has no love for the rebellion. Having explained all that it pretty much brings to light a problem with the current disney canon. So much of the universe had been fleshed out already with many great ideas that Disney's choice to redo everything and cherry picking what they like is leaving us with poorly planned half baked stories that pale in comparison to what came before.
