    I can't believe a guy before me asked the price and then balked at the $40 price. I wonder if he understood how much this one usually goes for. Anyways off to sleep.

    I'm attending anime boston right now, and I'm kinda shocked at how the figure world is kinda upside down right now. Good resin complete figures are going for $60-120 and pvc's are going for 150+! Still I did get some good deals like the Petra(funny knights?) Figure, and a queens blade figure of Sigui holding her staff above her head. To close out my figure purchases was a revoltech Leina figure I stubled across for around $40. I'll have pictures in the coming week once the con is over and I'm rested. Soooooooo....... which one of you guys dressed as the SDF-1?

    I'm at animeboston, and wen to a panel on an analysis of Strike Witches. I always knew there were little things in it based on history, but this went to a whole different level. It even went as far to explain why none of the girls wear pants! Well aside from fanservice reasons.

    I should be there. I'm bringing a rather interesting knockoff you might want to look at.

    Will Ferrell just isn't funny. It should tell you something that his best SNL skits were him standng there getting insulted by the other cast members on "celebrity jeopardy".

    I'm surprised nobody's noticed or commented how the film's opening is a tribute to Raider's of the Lost Ark, and a veiled shot at Prometheus. Nibiru is a part of babylonian and sumatran creation legend, the same legend's that Prometheus drew its imagry from. It just so happens in Star Trek its populated by pale white skinned religious fanatics with black souless eyes. EDIT: It's definatly more than a coincidence considering Lindelof wrote both films... Which might actually explain a few things.

    In a way I'm somewhat okay with this. As it stands now game companies don't get any money from people who buy used games as opposed to people buying them brand new. What this means is that a company while getting that initial sale, loses a potential customer to a store who ops to buy a used game for 5 bucks cheaper who might have otherwise bought a new copy. Now it seems like they might have more control over the game and still get paid for secondary sales. Downside is of course this system will be abused by microsoft/game companies to artificially dictate prices, and in all likelyhood cut a huge chunk out of gamestop's profit margin killing them in the process.

    You mean likee what the prequels did to everything else?

    Yeah if by playing it perfectly means a drug addicted raging alcholic that can't hit crap with a gun unless the person is sitting at a desk two feet across from him, and manages to get EVERYONE under his protection killed(including his boss) while being both too new to the job AND too old for this crap at the same time. Yeah, but who cares about that stuff when look OMG six pack abs and gay innuendo! Seriously though has Daniel Craig ever done a film where he was a raging alcholic or drug addict?

    We are stuck with him for the next two or three films I believe.

    I just want to say two things... 1.Concerning the rank issue. The person we are talking about didn't get demoted He was relieved of his command, and was intended to serve as first officer under an admiral. 2.Kronos is the official english spelling of klingonese Qo'noS both in universe and out. This dates back to The Undiscovered Country film. A similar concept would be in english Germany with it in German Deutchland.

    I have to strongly disagree with this concerning the nazi nuclear program, and the Horton. First of all, while the Germans were pioneers in nuclear science the actual Nazi program was a mess. It was underfunded, primitive, and phycisists who should have been involved in it were diverted away into conscription to fight as soldiers on the front lines. By 1942 Hitler was informed it would take 15 to 20 years before they could get an A-bomb, so he cut resources again to go to other weapons projects, and the nuclear program itself shifted its focus to energy production. By 1945 they had one barely working hazardous prototype reactor, that in no way could produce the amount of material needed to make an A-bomb. Much of the heavy water the nazi's were gathering went to said reactor just to make it work as they were using a flawed system. The Germans just didn't have the massive resources in terms of knowledge, manpower, and material to replicate anything near the level of the Manhatten project.As for the Horton HO 229, two months would not have made a difference. If it went into production, it would have suffered the same issues the 262 had with scarce fuel supplies, unreliable engines, and lack of skilled pilots. It would also be worth mentioning that at this point reliable allied jet fighters flown by well trained experience pilots would also be joining the front lines. That being said, Soviet Russia did help bring a quicker end to the war through their stand at Stalingrad.

    You really need to keep two things in mind concerning Kirk and Spock in this series of films. Unlike TOS Kirk this one didn't have his father to mentor and guide him to make him the man he became. This Kirk has been forced to fend for himself for most of his life, and that includes taking stupid risks. Spock on the other hand lost not only his home planet, but his mother too and is still bothered by it. In his postion I would feel lost, dazed, and confused too.

    Just got back from seeing it. GREAT FILM! Very enjoyable. Those of you who freaked over the spoilers need to remove the phasers set on bitch from your blackholes.

    I'm on vacation and getting ready to see the midnight showing. As I speak there are exactly two other people here in the theater with me. Two women to be specific.

    That would be nice, except for the fact that it most likely never happened, and if it did it wasn't a "major koenig" of some elite german sniper school as nobody with that name existed in the german army as a sniper. Much of Zaytsev's record is questionable given the time frame of his appearence in the battle of Stalingrad. Its possible the red army wanted a sniper to overshadow Finland's Simo Hayha who had embaressed them during the winter war for propaganda purposes.

    Quess being number 1?

    So duel.... according to you M.D. Geist is awesome and Vandread is stupid.... What's the weather like on bizarro world right now? Also given your abject disgust of anything of a sexual nature versus taking extreme pleasure in ultra violence tells me you might have some issues you might need to see a psycologist for.

    Right, so I'm an idiot for being honest and not being impressed by a crappy shuttle disaster teaser trailer made by a guy whose other movie I couldn't care less for either. And for the record I am not comparing Bay to Mr Melodrama Alfonso Cuaron, I'm just saying that there is a very similar scene in Armageddon where a space shuttle with astronauts EVA gets shredded by a meteor and that's what this trailer is exactly like. Neither makes me want to sit down and watch either film.

    What? Its like someone took the first 2 minutes of Armageddon and decided to make a two hour movie of it. Quite frankly there's really not much of plot they can make with what we saw. Unless aliens magically show up to the rescue all those astronauts are dead, so we probly get some stupid flashback about how the woman became an astronaut as she halucinates slowly aspyxiating to death or burning up on re-entry.

    2001 my A$$! It looks like a stinking pile of monkey crap.

    They have access to DYRL mecha, but not the show. In the recent past they've already released toys of DYRL mecha including strike pack variants.

    Yup! My comic store had a sale. I got it for $23.
