  1. Fortuitous find @pengbuzz! Exedore is looking Excellent! And who knew Frodo was so ripped!? @Cheese3 Real good look battroid!
  2. Star Wars A New Hope was basically a 'cut-and-paste story' from Akira Kurosawa, a Western and others shows, so I don't understand how this is a criticism. You can take several examples of movies from the same genre (and even beyond) and find similar plot points used to help drive the story all over the place. Everyone does it. This is not a valid criticism. Bad acting, bad direction, a story without any nuance or risks, sure those are. A show that is boring that puts the viewer to sleep? Sure. A scene with guy doing a useless spin in the middle of a blaster fight (you know what I mean?) oh hell yeah! But plots points? No.
  3. Cool progress on those birds, @derex3592 @nightmareB4macross Never gets old!
  4. It wasn't bad. Was it perfect? No. And yes, it felt rushed and got a little chopped at the end, but it was not a bad ending. As for Solo-rippoffs, there are any number of movies with the conman-trope.
  5. Great work there @nightmareB4macross!
  6. Dang, sorry to hear that, Peng. Hagf in there and hope you get better real quick!
  7. Had to hunt for it, but here is the Decals Library,
  8. I'm back! Ugh! But it was good. I was in it right until then, the intensity was there, as well as the feel goods. Whether I liked the very last moments or not, I shall be looking forward to Season 3. Please, Apple, give us a Season 3....
  9. Watching Silo, in fact I'm going to kick out now and watch the finale! Thanks for the reminder!
  10. As to the ending, I'm happy with it.
  11. It's in the title, man. 'Skeleton Crew Died, Star Wars killed it.' If the guy has a broad view and is not pushing one toxic mind-set, then you don't name it that. He himself is pushing a 'prejudgment' right from the start. Here's a good example of something I might watch, 'Skeleton Crew, Let's Discuss the Good and the Bad.' That shows me that the reviewer isn't a one-sided troll, bent on angst for click-baiting. What he did use, makes me not want to waste a second of my life on his teeny, tiny opinion.
  12. I've gotten into watching this my past few weekends, and I'm really liking it. Yes, it's a kid show, but the subplots under the kid-friendly romps and witty repartee are pretty good. There is a darkness growing, people die, good people make bad decisions and tell themselves they are doing bad things for the greater good - which always works! The episodes are about 30min long so it's quick to get through a season. I just finished Season 3 and am looking forward to 4.
  13. Same here! Don't need someone else's rants in any way. For me, it was a good ending to a good show. Not great, but fun and entertaining, which is the best of the two out of three. The third being making sense, so maybe 2 1/5 out of 3. Overall, very good show. Some niggles, but hardly enough to burn the show to the ground. I do wish it was a bit longer. I felt there was a lot happening, which makes time feel faster, so I wish they had stretched it out a bit more. If I was to rate this, I would give it a B+.
  14. I've gotten into watching a few Nerdforge vids on Youtube and would just like to share. In case anyone has not seen her yet, this is Martina from Norway who makes a great number of incredible builds on her channel. From creating a prosthetic to replace her missing pinky to rebinding legendary books, like the Stormlight series and the Hobbit, she is super entertaining and interesting, esp with her ideas. The first one I watched was her rebinding the entire Stormlight Archive series for Brandon Sanderson. And she and Hansi have been on Tested with Adam Savage. Just cool interviews and I just love they way they geek out together!
  15. Wow, some fantastic bit of work, @MechTech! I'd be smiling too! @pengbuzz That head is looking great! He's really beginning to look like Exedore!
  16. Have no idea who Hondo is, and it's not bothering me. We don't talk about the second one! It was special...
  17. Reminds of that... We'll find out Tuesday!
  18. It was one kiss! And it didn't mean anything. Honest!
  19. From what I recall, they used de-aging software for Luke, that someone then deep-faked on youtube and made look so much better.
  20. Wholesomely agree! It's been a good, fun ride so far.
