EXO

What?! NO! Er...Damn youse!!! Anyways, nothing beats the original. Combattler hands down. hands down on the floor along with your knees...

What are you talking about? Bsu can't get that many midgets together... though he has tried... he just couldn't get that many...

LOTR was a good trilogy... Hollywood lacks so much good fantasy/sword and sorcery type movies that LOTR more than made up for it. I don't know why you guys give Tolkien's story all the credit, I can see it being made much worse under a lot of other directors. Tolkien's story was good, it's what made all the CG, incredible sets and imagery even better.

That was Deimos. But Deimos wasn't combining robot, IIRC... It was controlled by one guy... Dr.V said that Graham is wrong.. hehe... Voltes rules.

oh man... how did this turn into a Voltes Vs. Combattler thread... when it's so clear that Voltes V kicks all kinds of ass!

But he DID DO Willow... badabump!

I don't know if you meant that to be funny... but it's the best answer in this thread.

Stickers... I don't like spraying my toys with clearcoat...

Combattler's better. see me in my office... *puts on brass knuckles*

Anyone else going to the Hotel Cafe. I'll be checking out that gig.

ummm... Moonraker! avoids that ungodly director's movie

it's lucky i've never been there in person... I would my face permanantly pressed against that display with drool coming out the sides.

The first manga is a whole lot better than the animated version.. but SAC kicks ass as far as any animated series right now. Batou and Togusa are more interesting because they get to banter off each other. The Major was most interesting in the chat room episode. Probably the best representation of her in any animated form.

I'd say they've encountered aliens before. What they were saying at the board meeting was that they had never encountered an organism similar to the one Ripley had before. Yeah you're right, they never were so detailed at the hearing about other lifeforms from the script: ECA REP To be perfectly frank, we've surveyed over three hundred worlds and no one's ever reported a creature which, using your words... (read from Ripley's statement) ...'gestates in a living human host' and has 'concentrated molecular acid for blood.' Even then I would think that the company was lying. They seemed to be after the Aliens with a purpose. Even if they never had first hand account before the Nostromo, I'd say that they were an interstellar urban myth to those who had close contacts with other ETs. I don't think they knew it in the first place since they ordered the colony to send one of the many mom and pop survey teams instead of going to the planet personaly with a large well equipped team. It was Burke that sent them. And Burke had already figured out that there were millions to be made by the "bio-weapons division." He had also figured out that once the Weyland Yutani Administration stepped in, then all exclusive right claimed by the mom and pop survey team was null and void. So I'm pretty sure that the story hinted that some executives have interests in these monsters. Like I said before... it was so far an urban myth that could be worth millions (or billions due to inflation) if proven to be real. Also in Alien. Ash had pre assigned directives from the company to protect the Alien... Special Order 937.

The closest airport would be the John Wayne Airport which is in a nice part of town... But I believe some people will be staying by the L.A. airport and some people will be up north in Burbank. I know some members work within the hotel industry, maybe if they can pull some strings they can send you a PM or something...

It's still doesn't answer the fact that that's the scene you're asking about. That's the Alien skull in the middle and at the bottom you can see the human skullcap...

Calling it THE xenomorph while it's the subject of the conversation doesn't make it the only Xenomorph they've encountered. The Marines have obviously been up against different species because they asked if it's "just another bug hunt." Especially if you're talking about your generic evil movie corporate types. They're most likely to use a generic term for anything or anyone.

that is the alien from alien... or aliens more specifically. are you looking at the same picture I posted?

Aren't they all xenomorph skulls? Well, just trying to help...

Wow, I wasn't aware they started showing Voltes V again... I know they showed Robotech or Macross... But in the Philippines, pulling the plug on Voltes V at the time was like Bruce Lee dying...

Because President Marcos outlawed the showing of anime series that showed anything against tyranny when he found out about Voltes V, Mazinger Z, Grendizer, and Daimos. He didn't want the general public getting funny ideas from these cartoons. They never finished the series (as far as I recall I was about 6) so it went out at the height of its popularity with nothing like it to follow. They cancelled the Super Robot shows and replaced them with anime versions of Heidi and some anime about a magic mirror or dimensions... a sucky time for giant robot fans. Of course none of us knew why these shows were cancelled at the time.

well with all your valks I'm sure you would be the one guy to notice!!! I only have that problem with my VF-1Js
