Your turn, JELEINEN.

I remember reading an old issue of Protoculture Addicts, which had an article on Star Blazers fandom. It mentioned that a group of fans produced a music video mixing the Beatles' song with the series' most violent battles. Next question: Which anime is about a 27-year-old high school teacher who still lives with her parents and is constantly ridiculed by her class because of her short height?

Uchuu Senkan Yamato + "All You Need is Love" by the Beatles.

Ball's on your court, JELEINEN.

Time's up. What is King of Bandit Jing? Next question: Which giant robot's name is derived from a chant used in the 1970s live-action series Dai-Tetsujin 17?

Earlier tonight on RAW: - WWE completely ribbed the NFL with a segment involving Shelton Benjamin and Trish Stratus. Vinnie Mac himself killed the segment by saying that African-Americans are heavily attracted to Canadian blond women with broken noses. Shelton then left the locker room, telling Vinnie Mac to lighten up. Afterwards, Trish dropped her towel and jumped on Vinnie Mac. "Are you ready for some wrestling?!" - GM of the Week: Chris Benoit. - Simon Dean struck again, interrupting Stacy Keibler as she was about to give away a free DVD copy of The Rise + Fall of ECW. Hurricane rushed in to save the day, only to be belted by Simon before Rosey made the save. - Uh-oh - dissention among the ranks of Evolution as HHH loses his trust on Batista. - Coachman got gored by Rhyno. Yawn. - Another Mohammed Hassan promo; this time, dealing with airport security. Double yawn. - Benoit vs. HHH in a steel cage was called off after HHH decided to be a pussy by pretending to be knocked out by Batista. - Benoit vs. Edge in a steel cage. What a surprise ending as Edge speared Benoit through the door, costing him the match. - Yup, another case of bullsh*t by HHH as he tricked everyone into thinking the incident earlier was legit. However, Orton had a trick up his sleeve. Next week, when he's GM, a battle royal will take place for the World Championship.

Though it has characters named after cocktails, Sorcerer on the Rocks (Chivas 1-2-3) is a medieval anime, not a post-apocalyptic anime. Try again.

Time's up. Next question - Jeopardy!-style: A post-apocalyptic anime series featuring characters named after hard liquor.

AFAIK, the only decent DBZ games were on the Super Famicom.

The Rise + Fall of ECW WWE Home Video, 2004 Rated TV-MA for graphic violence, mature situations and profanity. Over a decade ago, there was a small wrestling promotion in Philadelphia, PA, called Eastern Championship Wrestling, which drew the attention of the city's rabid fans with its mix of hardcore fights and high-caliber wresting matches not found in the WWE or WCW. Then in 1994, when Shane Douglas became the undisputed NWA Champion, he turned down that organization's title and proclaimed the dawning of the era of extreme. Under the helm of Paul Heyman, ECW (now known as Extreme Championship Wrestling) broke the boundaries of sports entertainment with its hardcore roster (Taz, Sabu, Rob Van Dam, Tommy Dreamer, the Dudley Boyz, etc.), along with the best from Canada (Chris Benoit, Chris Jericho, Lance Storm, etc.), Mexico (Rey Mysterio, Jr., Psychosis, Juventud Guerrera, etc.), Japan (Tajiri, Masato Tanaka, etc.) and wrestling legends (Terry Funk, etc.). While many of the wrestlers moved on to work for WWE or WCW, ECW continued to be a force to be reckoned with during the 1990s until its untimely demise due to bankruptcy. This new DVD chronicles the important events that took place in this organization's life. Remember when Raven's flock crucified Sandman (Kurt Angle even boycotted the company when this incident occured after his appearance in the show)? Or how about when Tazz and Bam Bam Bigelow crashed through the ring? What about Tommy Dreamer's relationship with Beulah McGillycutty, which endured a false pregnancy angle and a supposed affair that turned out to be a lesbian one with Kimona Wanalaya ("What the hell? I'll have both, 'cause I'm hardcore!" - Dreamer)? Those were the good old days. Another memorable moment was ECW's various run-ins with the WWE, which later on prompted an invasion by Jerry "The King" Lawler in the company. And then you have Steve Austin (before he shaved his head and called himself "Stone Cold"). Released from WCW for no logical reason, Austin was given an opportunity by Heyman to vent out his frustration. The result: "Monday NyQuil". What a hoot! While WCW had the nWo, ECW had the Blue World Order (bWo), consisting of Stevie Richards, Nova (now known in the WWE as Simon Dean) and The Blue Meanie ("You Fat F*ck! You Fat F*ck!" - ECW crowd chant). Later on, there was Al Snow's J.O.B. Squad, which eventually made its way to the WWE. Interviews with current WWE Superstars formerly employed with ECW give detail to the company's interaction with its fans. Where else could you bring a weapon for a wrestler to use? Where did the "Holy Sh*t!" and "You F*cked Up!" chants originate? In ECW, of course. There are also some very unscripted interviews with Heyman along with Vinnie Mac and former WCW vice-president Eric Bischoff. If it weren't for ECW, the WWE wouldn't have had its "Attitude". The Rise + Fall of ECW pays homage to those who shed their blood for the company. For those who go hardcore, we salute you. Rating: A DVD Extras Content review under construction. DVD also comes with a limited-edition Rob Van Dam figure.

WWE SmackDown! vs. RAW Yuke's/Jakks Pacific/THQ, 2004 For Sony PlayStation 2 Rated T (Teen) for violence, mature situations and mild language. Just when you thought WWE SmackDown!: Here Comes The Pain (2003) was the game to end all wrestling games, THQ and Yuke's bring in a new WWE game with better graphics, deeper gameplay, and a lot more T&A. If you can't stand HHH's backstage politics on RAW or the sheer boredom of SmackDown!, WWE SmackDown! vs. RAW may be the cure. Gameplay: A As with last year's game, SmackDown! vs. RAW captures players' attention with a wide array of moves and vast collection of WWE Superstars, not to mention the ability to create your own Superstars. This game goes further with the addition of a second power gauge. Your alignment as face (Clean) or heel (Dirty) plays a vital role on this gauge; heels use dirty tactics (i.e. removing the turnbuckle padding, executing low blows) while faces use clean tactics (i.e. "Hulking Up") to raise the bar. Once that guage is filled, players acquire temporary invulnerability during the match. As always, players collect points to unlock special items in the WWE ShopZone, such as special moves, accessories, WWE Diva wallpapers, and classic Superstars. Speaking of which, the game's array of Legends includes Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake, the Legion of Doom, and possibly the most accurate representation of Bret "Hitman" Hart. Unfortunately, Stone Cold, Brock Lesnar and Goldberg are not in this game. You'll need to collect over 20,000 points to unlock The Rock. Graphics: A- As predicted, SmackDown! vs. RAW boasts smoother graphics than its predecessor. In some ways, you'd rather watch this game than what WWE has on TV. Sound: B+ When it was announced that SmackDown! vs. RAW includes play-by-play commentary, fans were worried, recalling the nightmares of WWF SmackDown!: Just Bring It's horrid voices. Well, no need to worry, as the commentary by Jim Ross, Jerry "The King" Lawler, Michael Cole and Tazz is more refined. You also have actual voiceovers from various Superstars while playing Season mode. Of course, all of Tajiri's dialogue is in Japanese, since he can't speak English. The Bottom Line Whether you like wrestling or not, you must check out WWE SmackDown! vs. RAW. It's that damn good. Besides, it's the best way to vent your frustration on HHH.

Because it is an import, as it's Australian-built and is based on the Holden Monaro.

Now that FUNimation has the rights to Samurai 7, is anyone still fansubbing the series?

Last night on SmackDown!: - JBL made his "Victory Speech" following his tainted win over Booker T. This prompted Booker to come in and demand a rematch before Eddie Guerrero and the Undertaker came in the ring as well. As a result, Theodore R. Long issued a Fatal Four-Way match to take place at Armageddon next month. - John Cena destroyed Carlito Caribbean Cool to regain the U.S. title, but in the end, he wound up on a stretcher after a vicious attack by Carlito's bodyguard Jesus.

In other words, you'd rather pay more for inferior FWD over RWD. Besides, the current-model Eclipse is uglier.

1. U.N. Spacy (Macross) 2. Earth Forces (Gunbuster) 3. TERRA (RahXephon) 4. NERV (Neon Genesis Evangelion) 5. Zeon (Mobile Suit Gundam) 6. Cybertron/Autobots (Transformers) 7. A.E.U.G. (Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam) 8. FAF (Yukikaze) 9. Titans (Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam) 10. GGG (Yuusha-Oh GaoGaiGar)

Old news. Already been posted at least three times in this thread. Besides, it's not funny anymore.

There should be a bounty on his head, especially after he directed House of the Dead and Alone in the Dark. We must stop him before he destroys these titles: Bloodrayne (2005) Hunter: The Reckoning (2006) Far Cry (2006)

Witn $10, you can buy two copies of Ace Combat 04, which is a superior game.

Going back on the subject of Alternators: Is there an easy way to remove the wheels?
