  1. Hopefully situations like this will force the Studios to not rely so much on over-hyped movies. Revolutions would have done a lot better business if Reloaded and Revolutions itself were better movies, rather than over-hyped mediocrity riding the coattails of the original.
  2. There was a thread about these a while ago, but it was generally agreed not much was known about them. I think someone mentioned they were going to buy one, but I can't remember. I'd definately like to get my hands on them, but they seem quite rare.
  3. The GBP reminds me of Ace Ventura. Nice detail, but doesn't look like it's worth it to me.
  4. According to the compendium, it's going to be released on November 28th. And Agent.. A boot, like a wheel lock put on for parking violations? On a Ferrari.. how sad. <_<
  5. More updates. Additional screenshots from Eternal Love Song, a new page about the Macross Plus arcade game and some updated links. Enjoy!
  6. That's certainly a large part of it. According to the article I read on DarkHorizons.com, Warner Bros was less than pleased that Revolutions "only" made $80 million on it's opening weekend. This is down from Reloaded's opening weekend of $120+ million. You gotta know there's something f'ed up with Hollywood when an $80 million opening weekend isn't satisfactory. F'ed up especially when you consider that in reality Reloaded and Revolutions should be treated as the same movie; filmed together with the same budget, you kinda have to look at both of them together.
  7. Actually, the turnaround time for DVDs seems to be getting shorter and shorter all the time. There's already news that we will probably see Matrix: Revolutions on DVD in time for Christmas. No expert, but I think it has to do with the huge opening weekends for most movies and then how they just kinda fade otu after that. With movies like the Matrix sequels, most of the people that want to see it (i.e. fans) go and see it on the first weekend. Theoretically anyways, I haven't been around a newspaper (or interested enough to look up sales figures) to prove it.
  8. As someone else already mentioned, Orguss is from Orguss. Seriously though, check out this site: SDC Orguss Shrine, it has a ton of info.
  9. It's a requirement to be this way if you are a Kindergarten Teacher Being able to play with toys and make kids laugh...priceless! I did bring in a 1:55 to my class and it sits on the piano in Gerwalk mode. It's my teaching Valk of wrath! Protects the kids too from all the darn bees that fly in. Well at least that is what I told them. Rob And they don't take it down to play with? I'm surprised.
  10. Be sure to check into what kind of harddrive you're getting, Panther has a nasty bug with firewire hardrives that have a common kind of Oxford semiconductor that causes them to be completely erased. That said good luck with X, took me a while to get used to it after being a die-hard 9 guy for a few years.
  11. I don't think it's a very easy job, lots of time spent working without much return. I'm guessing Kevin has a day job, but I don't know for sure.
  12. Mines pretty outdated, but it's still as fast as I need it to be. 733mhz G4 Macintosh running Mac OS 10.2.8 768MB of RAM (gotta replace and upgrade to 1.5gigs this winter) GeForce2 video card (I think) 60GB hard drive CDRW/DVDR Superdrive Iomega Zip drive (Zip discs suck) Red Octane Arcade Stick w/ USB adaptor for MAME Only games I play are emulated, otherwise I just use it for internet stuff and video editing.
  13. Sometimes I got a better deal since I have yet to read the original books. Granted, the 'purists' criticize me for never having read them, but all the same I think it allowed me to enjoy the movies a lot more. I know if I had read them, I'd probably be too busy finding fault with the movies to really enjoy them. For once it pays to be part of the uneducated masses.
  14. http://shop.southernisland.com/detail.aspx?ID=269 Thats the page Whiskey got the second page from, should answer your questions.
  15. I've been out of the loop, what exactly is this Zeonographic series? The Zeon equivalent of the FIX line?
  16. Dangaioh, your stuff is really impressive, especially considering you're working with images you took with a digital camera and not a real scanner. I like the soft-line look, and your coloring looks fine in my book.
  17. I've been making plans for my own VF-1D custom, yours definately gives me something to look up to. Can't wait to see more of your custom work.
  18. Why not bump the cost of each sticker or decal sheet up a couple of bucks? With the amount of orders you get, that would probably help a lot and I don't think anyone would complain about helping you out.
  19. Er, they are MPEGs, plays fine for me in Quicktime. You did remember to unzip them, right?
  20. Very cool Shawn. Are you planning on evenutally upload all these commercials to Macross World? I hope your bandwidth won't suffer too much, can't wait to see more though.
  21. Giren's Greed is awesome, and relatively playable without much Japaese knowledge. There's a few sites online with some good info about it, if you end up deciding to get it.
  22. Yeah, we've been getting a lot of that lately: Blood: The Last Vampire Metropolis (if you're a Tezuka purist) Spriggan Wonderful Days (yeah, I know it's Korean, but the animation is gorgeous) I finally saw Wonderful Days, bad character designs but other than that the design and animation was awesome. And at least it had something of a plot, but they could have done a lot more with it. And with all the characters and backstory, I think it would have worked better as a short TV show.
  23. That mouth makes it look a lot better, makes the face a bit more dyanmic I think. Very cool. Theoretically you could use the same body for other valk girls right? Maybe just change the hair color or something...
  24. Damn, that looks really good in green. Your coloring is getting really good man, keep it up.
  25. Kind of a Alien3 Sigourney Weaver look going on, just on a teenage anime girl.
