  1. If you need a bioweapon to eradicate humanity, a stable Ebola/Marburg virus would surely be more cost effective... On the other hand, maybe the goo has the potential to turn every form of life on a planet into a destroyer of it's own kind. Within the movie, the concept seemed underdeveloped, when the effect of the goo only led to generic rubber-mask zombies. The Trilobite birth direction was better, but the scene was not handled too well in terms of pacing, when in the following sequence with Weyland awakening the movie lost momentum again. Too many potentially epic moments wasted is my main beef with the movie.
  2. Remember that one good sequence from the first Appleseed movie?
  3. Vector Cannon Jehuty is on sale at HLJ.
  4. Maybe we go to the cinema for different reasons. When I watch a Guy Ritchie film or even the latest Bond, it's not really important which absurd contrivance they're selling as a story this time, but the magic lies in the in-movie universe, the style, the interaction of the cool dudes in a world of mindless violence. There, Tank Girl & Flux had the potential, colorful universes and vivid characters, a goldmine for talented screen writers and directors. The Flux movie even had the looks and a plot that would have worked in the hands of the right people. Well, both franchises ended up with untalented directors, under inspired actors and just the right studio interference to finish them off for good. In Martin's own words: Considering the recent devolution, a remake is inevitable anyway.
  5. Superb Work! Makes me want to get one of the old 1/144s and mod the hell out of it.
  6. Mining source material that is all about style and attitude for full-feature plot lines is missing the point. Do you listen to rock music for the lyrics alone?
  7. Will this be the Nu to rule them all?
  8. So someone made a full-length feature from Neill Blomkamp's viral for Adidas?
  9. Ok it's up for preorder. Official prince is (ouch) 7800 Yen, but it's down to 5850 at Hobbysearch. Awesome details on the kit, check out the new pictures here
  10. So you thought the Collector's Edition was the end of all things Blade Runner? Make Room for the Anniversary Collector's Edition:
  11. I stumbled upon this nice CG illustration of Algerian Superhinds. You can see their big brother (Mk IV) in action in the movie "Blood Diamond".
  12. Both the Aeon Flux and the Tank Girl movie rank pretty high on my "Wasted Opportunities" list. High potential source material diluted for the masses. Reboots to the rescue, please. (Well, Tank Girl did at least get a comic reboot, with mixed flavors)
  13. Eww, this looks as true to the source as a Nickelodeon version of "Apocalypse Now" would.
  14. Where's the secret "caterpillar" drive?
  15. It doesn't get much weirder than this one... MiG-25 Flight von MiGFlug Warbird Rides auf Flickr
  16. The two-seater looks even more like something out of Ace Combat
  17. I hope so, since the Rex definitely needs support to stand. Seeing that the base has an interlocking design, maybe we'll get a Ray in the future, too.
  18. http://www.stardestroyer.net/Nemesis/Pictorial-1.html
  19. There was a time (around "Twelve Monkeys") where I'd have loved to see Bruce Willis as Hellboy.
  20. Mission accomplished.
  21. It's actually the PAK FA scheme in Flanker colors
