  1. The idea of an all-female Ghostbusters is not bad; it's just that this new film executed it poorly. Very poorly. In the original, Peter, Ray, and Egon were quirky scientists, while Winston was a former Marine that just needs a job. These women, on the other hand, are just phoning it in. Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, and Kate McKinnon as scientists are as convincing as Denise Richards in The World Is Not Enough. And Leslie Jones is, sadly, the "token black person" stereotype. The original jumpsuits were nothing short of iconic; these new ones scream "bargain bin". This reboot fails on all levels and is easily in the running for Worst Movie of 2016. The Sweded version in Be Kind Rewind is a much better effort.
  2. I don't have either of the MG versions, but the Fin Funnels on this kit have no mounting points for an action base. I don't know if Bandai made an effect parts set for this kit, but not having one is a completely missed opportunity. Same with the Sazabi, especially since the Jagd Doga comes with effect parts for its funnels. I'll try using a Tamashii Stage with the claw attachment to see if it can hold a Fin Funnel.
  3. My latest build: HGUC RX-93 ν Gundam. The only stickers I used are for the head cameras and chest sensor. I used Mr. Color #14 Navy Blue and #58 Orange Yellow, Gundam Markers #GM08 Gundam Yellow, #GM09 Gundam Eye Green and #GM10 Gundam Black for the necessary details. Panel lining was done with Tamiya Panel Line Accent Color (Black and Gray), Gundam Marker Black Panel Line Pen, and Pilot Drawing Pen 01. Additional water slide decals from the Gundam Decal sheets for MG Hi-ν Gundam and RX-178 Gundam Mk-II [A.E.U.G.]. Here's the ν Gundam with the 1988 and 2014 versions of the SD Gundam BB Senshi kit. And let's not forget the ν Gundam's arch nemesis, the MSN-04 Sazabi. A size comparison inspired by Kakarot197 and 2Old4Toys. "And that's all for this review. And see you guys next time."
  4. Yeah, the storytelling in this film is not for everyone, especially the occasional nitpickers, but we can all pretty much agree with one thing: Kingsman is better than SPECTRE.
  5. Zootopia has been under our radar for months, mostly because the trailers weren't that impressive. However, even before its official U.S. release on March 4, the film is already receiving rave reviews. "A" "Definitely Worth Buying on Blu-ray" Official Site Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 100% - "The brilliantly well-rounded Zootopia offers a thoughtful, inclusive message that's as rich and timely as its sumptuously state-of-the-art animation -- all while remaining fast and funny enough to keep younger viewers entertained." Metacritic Score: 80 out of 100
  6. The WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2016 so far:
  7. Actually, Eggsy wasn't unskilled to begin with. He had Olympic-level gymnastics skills and trained in the Royal Marines before becoming a deadbeat because of his abusive stepfather.
  8. Tell me about it. There are people around that are still mad about Sigourney Weaver not winning the Best Actress award 30 years ago.
  9. Why can't we just have this as a regular release? P-Bandai Exclusive: HGBF 1/144 Ez-SR FOX-HOUND
  10. Ex Machina wins the Best Visual Effects award at the 88th Academy Awards. In addition, Alicia Vikander wins Best Supporting Actress; just not for this film, though.
  11. The film won the following Oscars at the 88th Academy Awards: Best Sound Editing Best Sound Mixing Best Production Design Best Makeup and Hairstyling Best Costume Design Best Film Editing So it didn't win Best Picture. Surprisingly, neither did The Revenant.
