    Because Hugh Jackman doing a cameo appearance was the single most predictable part of the movie.

    Actually, I thought this was a much better effort than Thor. Sure, the special effects on Thor were better, but the script was a bit lacking on some parts. X-Men: First Class, on the other hand, really made up for the last two X-Men movies that were just horrible. BTW, I didn't care much for Wolverine's cameo; Michael Ironside's appearance in the film made a bigger impact.

    In all fairness, The Spy Who Loved Me and For Your Eyes Only were Moore's epic achievements during his career as Bond. Octopussy was okay. The problem with the rest of his films is that they lack replay value in comparison to the Connery era films - especially Moonraker and A View to a Kill (which is only saved by the Duran Duran song). Still, they're better than the Dalton era and Brosnan's last two Bond films.

    Yeah. The Irish accent comment really spoiled it for me.

    So you're saying that the Roger Moore movies were more realistic?

    WRONG. The World Is Not Enough and Die Another Day were much worse.

    MGM and EON Productions have announced that the next James Bond 007 film will begin production later this year and will see a release on November 9, 2012 (in time to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the James Bond 007 film franchise). The new film, now titled Skyfall, will be directed by Academy Award winner Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Revolutionary Road), and Daniel Craig will return to the film franchise as James Bond. This is good news for moviegoers, as plans for a new Bond film were put on hold due to MGM's bankruptcy. Being released after Quantum of Solace (2008), Skyfall will mark the second longest gap between Bond films since the early 1990s, when GoldenEye (1995) came out six years after License to Kill (1989).

    It's probably the single worst Marvel movie ever made, but among all superhero films, it's not as abysmal as Steel.

    I use only Meguiar's NXT products. And I agree with David Hintgen that Meguiar's stuff smells better.

    Automotive Thread Quattro SpecV (the previous model) Time to roll out a new thread on car discussion. First off, this... The new Batmobile? Maybe. It's a concept design by a student at Munich University of Applied Sciences. In the Lamborghini tradition, the concept car is named "Ankonian", after a bull known for its black hair. Since Lamborghini has promoted its cars in the last two Batman films, perhaps the company should look at this design and use it for The Dark Knight Rises.

    I just found out that this movie is loosely based on a short story simply titled Steel by Richard Matheson, which was written in 1956. The story was first adapted in episode 122 of The Twilight Zone in 1963. Elements of that episode were referenced in episode 322 - "I, (Annoyed Grunt)-Bot" - of The Simpsons.

    On this week's episode of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger: Episode 15: "A Privateer Appears" (私掠船現る) Legend of the Week: Tohru Furuya (Casshern Sins, Yamcha in Dragon Ball Z) as Aka Red (voice) Villain of the Week: Basco ta Jolokia Gokai Color of the Week: N/A Past Sentai of the Week: None The Zangyack Empire sends a privateer to deal with the Gokaigers, and he is revealed to be Basco ta Jolokia - a former comrade of Captain Marvelous. Now this is where things start to unwrap for Captain Marvelous' past. It turns out that many years ago, Captain Marvelous, Basco and Aka Red were members of the Red Pirates until Basco betrayed them and sided with the Zangyack Empire. Furthermore, it is revealed that Basco is in possession of the Extra Ranger Keys, which he activates with his trumpet to battle the Gokaigers. Our heroes have some difficulty battling Time Fire (Timeranger), Dragon Ranger (Zyuranger), King Ranger (Ohranger), Shurikenger (Hurricaneger) and Deka Break (Dekaranger) before they manage to defeat them, but are cornered by Shinken Gold (Shinkenger), Magi Shine (Magiranger), Kiba Ranger (Dairanger) and Gosei Knight (Goseiger), Go-on Gold & Go-on Silver (Go-onger), Gao Silver (Gaoranger) and Mega Silver (Megaranger), Abare Killer (Abaranger) and Bouken Silver (Boukenger) as Basco leaves this episode in a cliffhanger. And so begins the countdown to Gokai Silver's debut. Next week on Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger: Episode 16: "Clash! Sentai vs. Sentai" (激突！戦隊VS戦隊) With his shipmates held captive by Basco, Captain Marvelous must find a way to save them without surrendering all of the Ranger Keys to him.

    Wow, you've been way behind the times. Foley's been in TNA since 2008, and Hogan and Bischoff joined last year.

    Ranger Key Series: Henshin Keitai Mobirates (変身携帯モバイレーツ) Bandai, 2011 Made in China Requires two AAA batteries (not included) Contents Mobirates cell phone Gokai Red Ranger Key Shinken Red Ranger Key Go-on Red Ranger Key "Gokai Change! GOOOOKAIGER!!!" For every Super Sentai group, there is a device for them to automatically change into their heroic suits. In the case of the Gokaigers, there's the Mobirates (short for "Mobile Pirates") cell phone, which is powered by the Ranger Key system. The Mobirates looks and functions like the typical toy flip phone, but it's a massive brick when placed next to a real cell phone. And unlike the Shodophone for Samurai Sentai Shinkenger, this one does not come with a carrying case (mostly because the Gokaigers never use one on-screen; they just pull their weapons and accessories from out of nowhere). Open up the phone and you have your typical numeric keypad. Only the number keys and the top center button function. Entering specific four-digit codes will have the Mobirates (voiced by Tomokazu Seki) shout special commands. Some examples include: 0001 to 0035 - Super Sentai groups from Goranger to Gokaiger. 1224 - "Merry Christmas!" 0101 - "Akemashite Omedeto!" ("Happy New Year!") 1992, 2001-2005, 2008-2011 - Super Sentai robot combining commands (by corresponding year). 5501 - "Hasshin! Gokai Galleon!" Above the keypad is a large key hole, which is the most important part of this toy. The set comes with three Ranger Keys: Gokai Red, Shinken Red and Go-on Red. Each key somewhat resembles a Playmobil figure made to look like a Super Sentai hero. Poseability is limited to 360° arm movement. Other Ranger Keys are available in five-pack sets, gashapon and candy toy packages, and other toys in the Ranger Key Series line. In addition, special edition Ranger Keys have been offered in the Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger opening theme CD single and an issue of Terebi magazine. So how does this work? You swing the arms upward and fold the figure by the center to reveal the key behind its legs. (Unfortunately, the keys do not have the spring-loaded feature used in the TV show.) You then hold the Mobirates in your left hand and the key in your right hand, pointing the key forward while yelling, "Gokai Change!" Then in one swift move, insert the key all the way into the key hole and crank it clockwise. This opens the top portion of the phone, transforming it into the Gokaiger logo while flashing a red light and shouting the name of the Super Sentai you inputted. This is downright brilliant! Using the key system, the Mobirates recognizes different Ranger Keys and plays their corresponding names. The special edition keys will play secret vocal greetings as well. In addition, when you enter 0000 on the keypad, the phone enters into "VS" mode, wherein it plays a special versus message when two corresponding Ranger Keys (ex. Shinken Red and Go-on Red) are entered. There's even a hidden message for Kamen Rider OOO (whether or not an actual Kamen Rider OOO key has been made is yet to be known). The Ranger Key system offers near-infinite replay value, as the keys work with other toys such as the Gokai Gun, Gokai Sabre and Gokai Buckle. While the Gokai Buckle is merely used to store one key, the Gokai Gun and Gokai Sabre will enter into Final Wave mode when a Ranger Key is used. Overall, this is a fun Super Sentai toy for cosplaying or if you're bored at work. Editor's Note: The Bandai Asia release has the volume severely toned down in compliance with noise and safety regulations in Hong Kong and parts of Southeast Asia.

    Latest developments on the upcoming sixth Gokaiger: Gokai Silver Finally Revealed! Gai Ikari is a Super Sentai fan who is seriously injured when he saves a girl from a car accident. In his dream, he meets Dr. Mikoto Nakadai (Abare Killer in Abaranger), Dragon Ranger (Zyuranger) and Time Fire (Timeranger), who praise his heroic deed and hand him the Gokai Cellular and the Ranger Keys of the extra warriors. By using the Gokai Cellular, Gai can change into Gokai Silver. And with the Gold Anchor Key, he can change into Gold Mode, which gives him the powers of 15 "sixth Rangers" of the past. GoZyuJin: The Tribute to Three Sentai In addition, Gai is given his own mecha: a triple-changer that transforms from drill ship to mechanical T-Rex to robot. GoZyuJin represents the powers of Zyuranger, Timeranger and Abaranger.
