    1.The Shah of Iran never returned to his home country. He passed away in Egypt and interred at a mosque there.2.I'm pretty sure those aren't Cutlasses in that Black Tiger photo. Either that or heavily edited.

    To me Scrapped Princess which I just got done watching a couple weeks ago has one of the best endings I've ever seen. I can't say enough about this show, its about as close to perfect as an aime can get. Yeah I know that's saying a lot. Vandread is also pretty good.

    She was already this probly involved Venus De Milo...I don't hate Megan Fox, and I think she has some untapped potential, but she's stuck with either crappy horror movies or bay films. Not exactly roles that that give you a chance to shine. I'd like to see her cast in something a little more serious just to see what happens. If she stinks that's fine at least we know. Bay movies could make Patrick Stewart look like crap. EDIT: speaking of which I wouldn't mind seeing Patrick Stewart voice Unicron in some form.

    Anybody know when I can find a reasonably affordable figures of Echidna and Shizuka from Queens Blade? I really don't want to spend more than 60-80 bucks US for them.

    Okay did you see the same thing I did?

    There's always Madlax or oldschool Golgo 13.

    So there's a Godzilla strain of Xenomorph now?

    The only thing I want to know is what the plot twist is that may or may not explain/cancel out alien 3/resurrection etc.

    Gearbox also released Duke Nukem Forever.

    Its from the melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. There is some like a hundred different figures from that series of the characters in bunny girl outfits. I love bunnygirls personally, but the ones from this series never appealed to me because they all look under age.EDIT: Wait nevermind, the styling kinda threw me off. The figure is actually from the To Heart series of visual novels.

    All this talk of of Deadspace 3 and being scary reminds me Colonial Marines is coming out soon. Truth be told the xenomorph scares the hell out of me more than anything else like the necromorphs. I think it plays on childhood fears from when I watched parts of the first two movies when I was very young when I was told not to. Pure nightmare stuff there. I'm not sure I'll be able to play it when its released, and if I do I'll be looking behind me every five seconds... which will probly be when the floor gratting will give way and I have a heart attack

    I picked up Witcher 2 for the 360. I haven't got a chance to play it yet, but I heard good things about it. I think it might have gotten overlooked by a lot of people in the fantasy rpg department due to Skyrim.

    Like GU-11 said, she had cybersex and got paid for it. That's a "cyber-ho" in my book. The original english release had the panel removed, I have the second release that was left uncensored.

    You know, this thread really has me thinking about where along the line did I just stop giving a F*** about Star Wars. Near as I can tell it was somewhere inbetween Anakin Solo(Leia and Han's kid) getting killed off in the novels under orders from Lucas because he was afraid people might get confused with another Anakin running around despite the books building him up to be the main hero at that point. Episode III driving home the point that Anakin is a emo punk ass b**** that gets manipulated by the promise from palpatine who even admits he can't do what he promised later only for Anakin to be okay with it. Or maybe it was Hayden Christensen being inserted into the end of Return of the Jedi? I used to be a big Star Wars fan, hell my screen name comes from the ESB radio drama! Now I don't really care. Sure I get those little flickers of joy every now and then(lego star wars, kotor, force unleashed) or even hope over this new movie, but its just not what it once was.

    That is a cloud car.

    Technically in the manga she was a "cyber-ho". At least it was her part time job anyway.

    the movie originated as a script for a follow up to the 1984 Return of Godzilla film. Toho at the time held a story contest to decide the plot of the next film. What would eventually be turned into Gunhed lost to the Godzilla vs Biolante script.

    Theoretically couldn't the F-22 zoom climb and then at the top up the thrust vectoring nozzles to maintain controlled level flight? Would that count towards breaking the record?

    Currently rewatching Scrapped Princess. I still can't believe how bad Bandai dropped the ball with this show by not promoting it. This is a show that should be on Toonami not garbage like Deadman Wonderland, or shows that have already been done to death. The story is great, the dub is amazing, but above all the character designs and the animation levels are stunning.

    FHE during one of their VHS releases condensed the Macross saga's 36 episodes down to 6 two hour volumes.

    What Yoda said was: "Once you start down the dark path forever will it dominate your destiny." I take that to mean not that you can't escape it, but you will always carry the scars of it with you and pay a heavy price.

    Reminds me of Space Above and Beyond's Hammerhead, but at least that looked real enough to fool the Russians. This thing? I've seen fan made X-wing mock ups that look more real.

    They would be wise to ensure this film sees a french dub and french subtittles. For whatever reason Harlock is huge in the province of Quebec. Its the only place in north america where the original Harlock tv series, and the later Endless Orbit SSX series saw a broadcast release.

    The Lejiverse and Yamato are most definately worth it. Both are some of the best space opera ever made, and yes most of them have been released in the US. About the canon... There is no official canon. While several shows appear to take place in the same universe some are stand alone stories with no connection to anything else, and some are stories based on literary works that use the Leijiverse cast. Off the top of my head... Galaxy Express 999- Leiji Matsumoto's main body of work comprised of two manga series, 3 movies, and a over 100 episode long tv series. Matel Legend- a prequel to Galaxy Express 999 Galaxy Railways-a sidequel tv series and ova to GE999. Space Pirate Captain Harlock-the original tv series featuring Harlock Arcadia Of My Youth- a movie retelling of Captain Harlock's origin. Captain Harlock Endless Orbit SSX- a sequel tv series set in the Arcadia universe Harlock Saga- a OVA series based on Wagner's Die Nibelrung using the Harlock charaters as the cast. Captain Herlock Endless Odyssey Outside Legend- a OVA series originally planned as a sequel to the original Harlock tv series that ended up moving off in its own direction. DNA Sights 999.9- a short ova series featuring cameos by Harlock. Queen Emeraldas- a OVA series following Emeraldas with cameos by Tochiro and Harlock Gun Frontier- A series set in the old west featuring ancestor's of Harlock and Tochiro Cosmo Warrior Zero- a tv series featuring an all new lead character Warrius Zero who's job it is to track down and kill a younger version of Harlock. Battlyzer(IQ9) is a character in it. The series spawned from a shooter videogame drawn by Matsumoto. The Cockpit- a loose collection of WWII stories one of which includes a possible half brother to one of the Harlock ancestors. Interstella 5555- a series of music videos of Daft Punk that were animated into a cohesive story by Matsumoto. Great Yamato and Dai Yamato- two Yamato series Matsumoto tried to make on his own before the lawsuit settled things in Nishizaki's favor. Lightning Ozma- a new post apocolyptic tv series based on some of his earliest work. Time Sweeper Mahoroba- an unfinished manga series that Matsumoto hinted at would tie everything together. Super Dreadnought Mahoroba- a work in production that features a Yamato class ship that may transform into a giant robot.

    To answer your question everything is and isn't canon. As for the connection to Space Battleship Yamato, Leiji Matsumoto is the person most responsible for what we received. Half way through preproduction everything had stalled, and he got hired to direct and put the project back on track. This meant renovating everything from the plot to the ship and character designs. The connection it has to the Leijiverse is that Captain Harlock was originally going to appear in it had the show made its full run of episodes in the first season. Unfortunately(or fortunately since this allowed LM to keep the rights to Harlock) the series got cut short and Harlock's cameo was turned into Kodai's(Wildstar's) brother. The senario did play out in the manga version that Matsumoto drew. I'll explain more about the canon later, but its complicated.
