  1. Well, there were several non-animated side-stories that took place between CCA and F91. Most notable is Hathaway's Flash, where Bright Noah's son Hathaway forms a resistance group and leads an unsuccessful war against the Federation.
  2. Last night on South Park: 1002: "Smug Alert" - Feeling left out for owning a hybrid car, Gerald moves his entire family to San Francisco. In an attempt to get Kyle to come back, Stan records a song that encourages everyone in South Park to drive hybrids. But once they do so, Stan unknowingly causes the entire town to be engulfed in an environmental threat much worse than smog. What a rather lame episode. Yes, South Park has become too political over the years, but at least the episodes were funny and straight to the point. This one, however, was pretty pointless and just not funny. From San Franciscans sniffing their own farts to the threat of "George Clooney's Oscar Acceptance Speech" Smug, this episode not only falls short of all expectations, it just falls flat within the first five minutes. And once again, for unknown reasons, Kenny is not in this episode. Instead, Butters fills in for Kenny and becomes Cartman's "surrogate Jew" with Kyle out of town. For one thing, I hope this is the only bad episode we'll see for the rest of the season.
  3. Macross73, try not to "quote" images next time, especially if you're just gonna post a one-liner.
  4. I've been completely out of touch with the Gundam franchise for over a year. Can someone tell me in short what went wrong with Gundam SEED Destiny?
  5. Aw, come on. It wasn't that bad. Especially since there was the G.I. Joe series produced by DIC in the early 1990s. Got to get tough, YO JOE! Got to get rough, YO JOE!
  6. WrestleMania 22 is just about four days away. As usual, I'll be watching it and I'll post results ASAP. But since WWE has been so predictable over the past couple of years, I might as well post the "projected" (NOT official, but expect these to happen) results right now: WWE Championship John Cena landed the F-U on Triple-H to retain the title. World Heavyweight Championship - Triple-Threat Randy Orton def. Kurt Angle and Rey Mysterio after landing the RKO on Angle to become the new Champion. No Holds Barred Shawn Michaels landed some Sweet Chin Music on Mr. McMahon. Money in the Bank Okay, this is probably the only match I can't predict, except for the fact that Ric Flair won't win this one. Casket Match Oh please! Like Undertaker will actually job to Mark Henry, especially at WrestleMania, where he remains undefeated. Hardcore Match Edge destroyed Mick Foley with a couple of Concertos and a Spear. WWE United States Championship Chris Benoit made John Bradshaw Layfield tap out to the Crossface. WWE can go to hell if JBL wins this one. World Tag Team Championship Carlito & "The Masterpiece" Chris Masters def. Kane & The Big Show to become new Champions. WWE Women's Championship Here's a real shocker - Mickie James def. Trish Stratus to become the new Champion. If Booker T. jobs to the Boogeyman, someone in Stamford, CT, is gonna get a chairshot from me... Playboy Pillow Fight Candice Michelle def. Torrie Wilson. But then again, who cares?
  7. BTW, where are Vostok 7 and Commander McBride? We need some WRXs around here. And Shawn, still got your 240Z?
  8. Hey, that's cool. It's too bad you had to give up your '65. I guess it couldn't be helped, given that family comes first. One of these days, when I finally pay off my Mustang and earn enough money, I'll go take up car restoration as a hobby and pick up an old Mustang.
  9. The old thread went to The Hall of the Super Threads, along with a lot of other super threads. Anyway, carry on.
  10. With the original MW Automotive thread out of commission, it's time to start a new one. Let's begin with this question: What car do you drive? Post some pics if applicable. Here's mine: 2005 Ford Mustang V6 Deluxe - "Belldandy"
  11. More than David Hasselhoff?
  12. The Yaris is not bad for a daily driver. And with a starting MSRP of under $11,000, it's a steal for a Toyota.
  13. Sad news in the world of auto racing: IRL Racer Paul Dana Killed in Crash at Homestead-Miami
  14. World Events Productions is now releasing a 2-disc set of The Best of Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs. http://gallery.bcentral.com/GID4988834P490...iffs-Vol.1.aspx
  15. Don't worry about it - I was about to start a new thread after people spammed the hell out of the original thread.
  16. Oh my God! They killed Chef! You Bastards!!! 1001: "The Return of Chef" - Three months after leaving South Park to join the Super Adventure Club, Chef returns to town. However, the kids are seriously concerned when he starts talking about making love to children. In hopes of finding an answer to this problem, the kids go to the Super Adventure Club's headquarters, where they find out that it's run by a group of pedophiles.
  17. It's a sad day in the world of dubbed anime... Bob Papenbrook, voice of "J", dies at 50
  18. I stopped by Fuccillo Hyundai in Canoga Park, CA, after work today. Unfortunately, because it was located by a heavily congested street, I was unable to test drive a Sonata. However, I did take a closer look at it and the Azera. Like emajnthis mentioned, the Sonata's interior does look a bit plasticky. The bottom half of the dashboard has Rubbermaid-like texture. And for some reason, the stereo looks out of place. Lots of headroom inside, the leather seats are comfy (if not a bit cushioney) and there's some decent legroom in the rear. The Azera doesn't look big on the outside, but the interior is a bit cavernous. There's plenty of rear legroom and the ergonomics are fairly decent. The major turn-off is that the leather interior smells like a dead fish. Despite some shortcomings in design, both the Sonata and Azera seem to be very solidly built. If you decide to buy the Sonata, you should opt for the LX. At $22,895, you really can't beat such a deal. Besides, there isn't much of a difference between the 4-cylinder (24/33) and the V6 (20/30) in terms of fuel economy.
  19. I've read reviews on the new Sonata and it seems to be solid in terms of performance and reliability. You might also want to consider the Mazda6 (Ladic owns one) or Ford Fusion. Spend a little more and you can go for the Honda Accord, Acura TSX or Subaru Legacy.
  20. Yeah, even a properly-tuned 2005-2006 Ford Mustang GT will beat an NSX at nearly 1/4 the MSRP. And it even posts better gas mileage, despite having a larger engine and weighing 500 lbs more.
  21. Now, since when did GONZO not use CG on an anime title?
