  1. It's crap like "loot boxes" that have turned me off from multiplayer. That and I don't have time to grind through the 5-10 hours needed to accomplish the task for those loot boxes. I can barely do 30 minutes in a sitting before things like sleeping, eating, and working (i.e. life) take over. How about EA's SWBF2?
  2. Macross cars would, technically, count as mecha as they are placed in the mechanics section of artbooks and in the Macross Chronicle.
  3. New series = new writers. I. Hope. The movie, which sounds like a rehash, feels like a cop out to all the problems I had with the show, namely the story and characters. Music was apparently a hit (I found it OK). Mecha...I guess was OK. But Delta lacked a good story and characters to drive the story.
  4. I expect which ever characters got marginalized in the TV series to get further marginalized in the movie. Two hours just isn't enough to devote to minor characters.
  5. I allow 2 scissor patterns. No more. Every time we saw Messer vs. Keith, that’s all we saw.
  6. Attacking a base with walkers and defending with speeders. Check. Reluctant teacher training newb. Check. Dark Lord reaching out to the newb in a "Join me."-moment. Check. Millennium Falcon flying through caves. Check.
  7. Macross Delta Film Reveals Title, February 2018 Opening This does not make me feel better.
  8. 'Heard a story from family about millennials in their office giving blank stares when asked to get a letterhead sheet. My face: So I feel your pain/grumpiness/get-off-my-lawn. So did that kaiju at the end super sentai-gattai?
  9. Confirmed now. http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/03/entertainment/tom-petty-obit/index.html
  10. Regardless, Enterprise's theme sequence made a hell of a lot more sense than Discovery's. Hell, every Star Trek opening theme sequence has made much more sense until Discovery came along.
  11. Disney To End Distribution Agreement With Netflix, Launch Streaming Service It will start in 2019 beginning with the movies and likely work it's way down the pipeline over time.
  12. Relative to time & technology, use, pilot, etc. A machine made 50 years after the original could be light years better, but that's a product of time. A bomber can carry more ordnance than a superiority fighter. Pilots could pull maneuvers in older jets that modern jets would have difficulty doing. Newer may not mean better. So when people say "the best", I say relative to what.
  13. But the corollary to this is, subscriptions went up and app downloads rose. Star Trek: Discovery’ Drives CBS Mobile App Downloads Up by 64% (Study) So relative to the situation, looks like they might come out even. But as I mentioned, Disney is launching their own streaming service and you don't even need to bet that will have their own original content (likely ABC's content will be rolled into this too). This is, unfortunately, going to be, the norm soon. Deny and hate it all you want.
  14. "Best" is relative.
  15. Of course. People are already paying for Netflix, Amazon, (now that Handmaid's Tale won an Emmy, Hulu). Disney is getting into this stupid mix soon. We're paying for all this subscription madness. Who wouldn't pirate these shows?
