well there you go, I needless retconned myself. Tom hanks in a pink bustier with a purple wig it is.

uhmmm... they could go the route of some big budget CGI 3D movies and do the whole "virtual actor" thing like beowulf.

I don't know if you're being sarcastic or not but I completely agree with you. Some of the deepest philosophical debates happen amoungst the tachikomas but simultaneously they're very naieve in how they view humanity, themselves and the relationship between each other.

I think so, the shipping price they quoted me was 39.20 via EMS.

HAHAHAHAHA... tom hanks, in a bustier, trenchcoat and a purple wig.

no no no, you're entirely missing the point of being negative! Actually, I think GitS is right up Spielbergs alley. GitS isn't a simple tale of "humans who gave up their humanity" it's a much more rich world where the very concept of "humanity" is explored as machines and people move closer towards each other, the questions becoming, what is a soul and what is free choice? This idea has been explored by him before in AI and to some extent in Minority Report. Besides, GitS slower pacing, thoughtful dialogue and action pieces are really tailor made for Spielberg. My question is whether Spielberg will continue to work with Johnny to score this or will he go with a different composer? I'm hoping he breaks with tradition and doesn't go with Williams again.

yeah, the household income and education findings are very suspect.

hmm, I just noticed how high the head sits on the 1/60 and then I realized the 1/60 doesn't have that little "scoop" the 1/48 has for the head to sit down in... I've been thinking for a while how shallow those chest stripes look and now I know why.

firmware 2.3 is out, get you DTS-HD MA goodness!

I don't think of the seam line as a little detail, that should never have made it out of CAD. But that is nice work

Why are the prices high? Because it's yamato and they know people will pay it.

mmm.. I love me that gunmetal PS3... I'll have to console myself with the idea that my ps3, tv and speakers all have a similar finish.

I thought it was easier to create a decent looking male shepard but holy frak if the voice actor if male shepard is the suck. I nominate him for the "worst actor" thread.

wow, that first gillian anderson is amazing.

WOW, great pic, I love the way you intergrated the framing of the case in the composition of your display! pic quoted as per A7's request.

I played halo 3 again for the first time since COD 4 came out. Man, I was just meat with a gun for the first couple games but I ended on a high note. Another player and I took on and beat 5 guys when 3 of our guys bailed on us. It was glorious.

the shape of the nose cone, the length of the nose cone and it seems like the angle of the intakes are steeper on the 1/48 which I prefer. The backpack is shaped differently, the lower legs are narrower and the "shins" taper in which is closer to the line art. The proportions of the arms are different as well. The head's seam is different, down the middle on the 1/48 and around the back on the new 1/60

nope

sadly, uwe might be something of a step up for sci-fi.

Luke, I am your father!

nope.

I like both. I prefer the 1/48 for fighter mode but the 1/60 battroid looks kick ass and the double jointed elbows, man, I've been wanting those since forever.

Jeebus, talk about panties in a bunch... did you even follow how we got to this point, or did you just have a knee jerk reaction? This wasn't nit picking, this was comparing the d-stance to the yamato and finally a discussion on how the leg elements compare or do not compare to design elements on the q-rau. There was no negativity or whining, until now. When you introduced it.

awesome.

yes, you're so smart and enlightened. yay you. I know you're against critical thought when it comes to films (or at least those you work on) but I didn't know you didn't want us to compare discuss toys as well.
