  1. Enough with the remakes already. I'd love to see more books made into movies: Anything by Peter F. Hamilton would be great, although would need a huge budget to film. Moorcock's Eternal Champion series, Iain M. Banks 'Culture' novels. Harry Harrison's Stainless Steel rat books etc, etc. Graham
  2. I hope that was sarcasm about the Karate Kid remake. Did anybody even bother watching the remake? Graham Urghh........CG fest with slow mo Matrix style jumping. Looks like a PC game cut scene. Pass. Will stick with the original Arnie version thank you very much. Graham
  3. 3/4 of the way through and loving it. Definitely need to watch it at least one more time though. Best anime movie I've seen in a long time. Graham
  4. Why does Robocop even need a remake? The original movie is awesome. Graham
  5. Currently watching Sky Crawlers. Graham
  6. That's the one designed by Kawamori-san IIRC. Graham
  7. Watched the trailer. PASS. Somebody wake me up when Satelight start working on a new Macross anime. Graham
  8. Huge loss to the anime community. He really did bring joy to so many. Graham
  9. Never into TMNT as a kid, so not bothered about this at all, but it will be interesting to see how he changes things. Graham
  10. I thought this season was far better than season 3, although still needed more clone-based episodes. I personally liked the General Krell arc the best, although the episode where they fought on speeder bikes with those cool sidecars that could pivot back 90 degrees against Commando Droids was pretty cool. Graham
  11. What about those people who ordered 3 because we want 3, are we also mentally unstable? Graham
  12. I remember seeing that crash on the news when it happened. Reading up on that guy's career, he seems a real dick and should have been grounded long, long before. Graham
  13. I don't have any Aoshima/Toynami Tread toys, only CM's Tread & Legioss. To be honest the Aoshima/Toynami Tread looks too blocky to me and having the Tread's cockpit folding exposed on the chest really kills it for me. I think CM's came up with a much more elegant soluton for the Tread's cockpit in Armo-Soldier mode. Graham

    HI METAL LOVE THREAD

    To be honest, the Hi-Metal line didn't really impress me very much. The VF-19 toys had a nice battroid mode sculpt, but the fight mode was pretty horrible. Yamato really nailed their VF-19 sculpt. Bandai however IMO, did a horrible job with the overall shape of the cockpit, plane nose and area behind the cockpit. Just wrong, wrong, wrong. Then of course there was the whole fiasco with the inability to connect the gunpod in fighter mode and the cop-out 'sit the plane on thevlanding gear' solution they came out with. The VF-1 was a bit better, but the glued on intake on mine really killed it for me and I would rather pay slightly more for the 1/60 or 1/48. If they had concentrated on other more unique VFs besides the VF-1, maybe the line would have done better. Graham
  15. I'd pay to see that Hungry Hippos movie. That is all kinds of awesome. Graham
  16. I think it's pretty cool that there is a movie about Yamato still making toys in the year 2199. Wonder what sort of awesome Macross toy's they'll make by then! Oh wait........ Graham
  17. On the subject of MTF, I popped it into the PSP yesterday, for the first time in ages to play while semi-drnk (ala Focker.....LOL!) and could not remember what is the button combination to press to get the legs to come down in fighter mode to do a reverse thrust. Not talking about Gerwalk mode (duh!). I mean you are in fighter mode and the legs just come down for a second to slow yo down and then go back up into fighter mode again. I'm sure this used to be possible. Graham
  18. Known in Britain, if not the rest of the world as "Snakes and Ladders". Graham After watching trailer 3, all I can say is "oh dear". Graham
  19. To be honest, until a Macross game is released on Vita or Android, the only type of gaming I'm into now is smartphone gaming. Really enjoying the back-to-basics pick-up-n-go simplicity. No interest in bloated PC games at all. Currently playing: Monster Shooter, DGunners SP, Pew Pew 2, Radiant HD, Air Attack HD & ShadowGun. Graham
  20. No thanks. Watched the original Gundam TV series years ago and it is really, really not for me. I really can't stomach the MS designs, the rational behind the MS, Minovski particles or the style of mecha combat. Or the angst! Graham
  21. The ship looks really CG. I wish they would bring back actual physical models. Graham
  22. I must admit, I did buy all the Frontier TV series and movie DVDs. Bought from Amazon.jp. If I like a series, I'll support it and buy the original DVDs. The last English subbed DVD anime set I bought was the Votoms set and that was years ago. Graham
  23. Cool. Graham
  24. Buy? Goes to look up the word in dictionery. Graham
