  1. Thanks to netflix, I've finally been able to embark on the magnificent journey that is G GUNDAM! SHINING FINNNNNGGGGGGGGGAAAAA! I'm only 5 episodes in and really enjoying it. I have to admit the story has some unique twists like the colonies using the earth as a battleground to decide who rules, and the people still living on earth not wanting them because of the wanton death and destruction they cause.
  2. I've seen knockoff Thomas the Tank Engine combiner robots from China that look better than that turd.
  3. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2014-02-25/gundam/side-stories-blue-destiny-ps3-remake-promo-streamed Looks like Bandai is re-releasing 5 HD remakes of the Gundam side story games to coincide with the new side story game that's coming out. Included are Blue Destiny, Rise From The Ashes, Zeonic Front, Thoroughbred Encounters In Space missions, and Lost War Chronicles. I hope this makes it to the US shores.
  4. This may be the first Will Ferrell movie I have ever enjoyed. I think he might actually have a future playing a serious bad guy. Some of the things his character did(despite being a lego) were just plain cold, and he delivered the lines well.
  5. It is way to early to be commenting on "Americanized sentiments & viewpoint", but I take it you would be the type to call the film a travesty if Godzilla spoke with speech bubbles, danced, flew, and had more wrestling moves than the entire roster of WWE Smackdown, because you know that's the Japanese sentiment and viewpoint most often seen with Godzilla. Let me tell you why I have faith in this film. The Director and script writers are big Godzilla fans, they understand the original material, and understand how classic the original film is. This is a labor of love to them which is why I think they will get it right.
  6. Its not to scale, its a throwback triibute to the original Japanese poster for Godzilla Returns(Godzilla 1985).
  7. $120+? Go f*** yourself BBTS and Oritoys. These things aren't worth more than $80 tops.
  8. I've finished the first season of Polyphonica and it was quite good even if it was very episodic. At first I was a lttle disappointed to find out season 2 was a prequel series, but a few episodes in it seems to be the strongest of the two. One more thing, iis it me or does the ending theme's melody sound a lot like the theme from the 80s Buck Rogers tv show? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQ74fi7On6k
  9. That's Medaka-chan from Medaka Box. I recently watched the first season, and its actually pretty good. Medaka a pretty cool character who goes out of her way to help others, but doesn't let herself get pushed around. She's also confident in her sexuality "I'm not embaressed or ashamed of my body, so deal wth it!"
  10. Sarcastic jokes about some of the most disturbing hentai ever made aside, I'm about halfway through Polyphonica, and I really like it. The best way I can describe it is if the creators watched ghostbusters and decide to make an anime where instead of capturing ghosts they work along side them to do odd jobs. Toss in some musical instrument based weaponry to provide boosting powers to their spirit partners, and that's what you get.
  11. Just so you guys know if you ever visit weirs beach in New Hampshire there is an arcade called Funspot that has 400 arcade games including Cobra Command. Its also known as the American Classic Arcade Museum. http://www.classicarcademuseum.org/gamelist.htm Http://www.funspotnh.com
  12. I'm surprised nobody here has caught on that the new Roadbuster is based on the G.I.Joe Vamp. Kinda like the awesome Snowcat from years back. I do like the skyfire, and plan on getting it. In the wake of the SDCC skystriker incident it is interesting to note for me how his paint scheme has been altered to remove the black stripes and his "fast packs" look nothing like they do in across. My biggest complaint is that I would like a vehicle mode based on the tv version also. I have to wonder if a some point when designing it they had maybe a punch/counterpunch design in mind.
  13. Well I did just get done with a marathon of Cool Devices, Demon Beast Resurrection, and Bondage Game.
  14. Not so much that Pacific Rim was released with Robotech in mind, and more if Pacific Rim succeeded then Robotech *might* get shoved through the door and made. What links them is they are both Legendary projects.
  15. Anybody going to anime boston this year? I'm going to be hosting a panel this year and could use some help, especially if you live in Japan. The panel is on ice hockey in Japan, specifically the Asia League and the National team. It would be a big help if anybody could send me photos of the arenas the teams play at, or if possible get a media guide or program from the teams. I tried contacting the teams directly, but the language barrier is a huge issue.
  16. The biggest blasphemy was the lack of a two player mode in the snes version. I did enjoy 2 and 3 though.
  17. I'm just going to leave this priceless gem here... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqQWkB0kn9Y
  18. Man the end of that episode felt like a cop out, and fairly hypocritial as well considering how many characters have used overpowered weapons, cheap tactics, and secret weapons to win their matches.
  19. You wanna go all out? Convert it to the Space Carrier Shinano. Would the designation be CVY-03?
  20. Finshed Aquarion... waste of my damn time with a plot that ended up making all the repetitive monster of week battles meaningless. I really REALLY dislike this show and its almost nonexisting/contradicting plot. Hell Ikki Tousen Great Guardians had a deeper, more coherent, and compelling plot than Aquarion, and that show was 95% boobs and crotch shots! Anyways moving on to Polyphonica. It has a good pedigree coming from the original creator of Scrapped Princess. Speaking of which I'm looking forward to the upcoming Casket Princess Chaika which reunites the original creator, director, and Studio(Bones) from ScraPrin. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2014-02-06/chika-anzai-junji-majima-lead-hitsugi-no-chaika-anime-cast
  21. You aren't missing much, and what you have been is pretty much awful repetitive dreck. The series is 26 episodes long and only in the last 4-5 episodes does any plot development occur. This show would have been better served as a 8-9 episode OVA. Seriously you can watch the first 3-4 episodes and the last 5 and not miss a damn thing plotwise.
  22. You see political talk, I see a facinating subject of military history. Its no different than pointing out the inaccuracies in the hundreds of other movie threads we've had in this forum.
