  1. Oh, look at those wee lil droids! Your hand looks like sand dunes!
  2. Captain Marvel was a great movie. It was fun and energetic and Brie Larson was perfect for it. Saw it three times and I may go for a fourth. If Kalama Kahn shows up down the road and it is done with the same strength as has been shown in most Marvel/Avenger movies then I'll more than likely enjoy that too. Bring it!
  3. I do hope that they do that. The Resistance at the end of TLJ had nothing but the Falcon and a couple dozen Rebels, and if they keep to the story line, then no assistance is coming either. They have to get ships from someplace and I would love to see some legacy ships from ANH showing up again, esp if they don't make any visual changes to them From what I've heard and the look of the helmet in that poster, it has been pieced back together again. I hope there is a good reason for it. He can't undo much, but I really he can walk some of the Rian stuff in TLJ back. I hope Lando doesn't die... There were no good things that Rian did in TLJ... I liked The Force Awakens. It was a fun movie that set-up the new trilogy, but all the good in it was dropped by Rian who didn't want to play from JJ's 'mystery boxes' and did his own thing instead. IMHO what he did sucked. He could have given us a back story for Snoke. No, he killed him instead. He could have given Rey a better backstory than that she was simply abandoned, but no according to Kylo, she was. He could have given us the Knights of Ren, but not. He could have pushed ahead with a grand tale of the Resistance struggling against a resurgent Imperial Remnant, but instead he gave us a two hour car chase with a National Lampoon's Side-trip to Las Vegas tacked on... I was disappointed with most of TLJ, not the least of which with what he did to Luke. Everything about Luke in TLJ was an utter failure, and then he has him die off with a whimper... I will say that scene with him against Kylo was awesome - until it was revealed that it was nothing but a fake-out. If somehow JJ could erase TLJ, I would stand and applaud, but that would be just fantasy. I have hope though that he can pull Rian's Mess out of the trash he willingly dumped it into and give us a good end to this trilogy. I feel like dropping to my knees in prayer... (if I was religious...)
  4. The thing is, there is room for Kamala Kahn later down the road. Give it another ten years or so and we may see her.
  5. It's for kids. That's the first thing I thought about, esp with the monkey, so I'll give it some lee-way. I won't be watching it, but it gets some lee-way.
  6. Thanks! I'm staying mostly away from the decals though. I'm going to paint all of the colors on it, and only use the pennants, registry and windows of the decal sheet. And yes, those panel lines are wide and deep. The one good there is about them is that being so helped with masking the panel borders.
  7. I've never really been into lighting. Besides, the hull is all glued and sanded shut, so too late for that.
  8. Time will tell to see what shakes out.
  9. Not a big runabout fan meself. Defiant though, she is one cool 'little' ship. After a couple more masking/painting sessions. she's coming along.
  10. There really is no comparison. The Bay stuff just looks like a freekin mess.
  11. I'd love to see an Old Republic-era Star Wars. It's removed enough in years not to be a direct prequel and so can do its own thing. But, one nude shot and I'm gone!
  12. Really hoping for a sequel. If there is any push to at least make one more, it probably has to come from Cameron and Rodriguez. Cameron probably has the clout to do it.
  13. Looking so very cool! Really hoping for more of a S1 than another S2-vibe, though I did like S2. But the Hawkins Gang is back together again!
  14. He looks like a young Nick Fury rather than a young SLJ.
  15. Damn, it looks like pics from a model show in here, and all from the winning table at that! If I quoted everyone it would be its own page, so great looking builds all around! Wow. Though, go for the YF-19! This is currently on my table. Just finished the base coat of MM light gray after a preshade. Now time for the other colors.
  16. The thread lives!! Glad you liked it. I saw this for the last time this week. Less show times for it and a restrictive schedule means no more on the Big Screen. Next time will be on Blu Ray. I did buy the Art of book, which is pretty cool.
  17. That was a good HT! Aquaman was just a really fun movie. The Smoulder! Hail to the King, baby! Now a good question is, will Amber Heard be in the sequel..?
  18. Yeah, can't find that either.
  19. On the plus side, it's not mustache-vanishing bad. In fact, I hardly noticed. The only thing that stood out was that SLJ's face is a bit rounder now than it was back then, so that stood out slightly.
  20. The news I'm focusing on is the sequel to Bumblebee. If Bay isn't involved with the other one, I may give that a try too, but I don't know. But a BB sequel with Prime and BB in it!? What?! I'm in!!
  21. I'd dig that. Plus, there will be plenty of enemies around Thanos that a 9mm will take care of. If BW went straight up against Thanos, I'd be surprised.
  22. Good. I like the energy and fun he put into the previous movies.
