Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, in theaters Dec. 16, 2016
Mog replied to Dobber's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Agent Kallus from Star Wars Rebels has those massive mutton chops/side beard thingies too. But yeah, pretty sure the Empire ain't too fond of its officers looking like scruffy-lookin' nerfherders. -

Wonder if we'll get a scene where mis-labels a certain intake port as an "EXHAUST port"? -
How to repaint/customize paint scheme on toys?
Mog replied to thetrollphysicist's topic in The Workshop!
I'd echo chyll2's comments too: the most important thing is to plan, plan, plan. Figure out how your color-scheme is gonna look in all three modes. Figure out what areas are gonna have a ton of paint rub, and plan to sand those areas heavily. A few other tips: 1) Figure out early on if you're going to use stickers or decals. If you're going with stickers, realize that the market for custom stickers is pretty dry now. You can try making your own custom stickers, but realize you'll need a white background for them to really show up on the Valk. Unless you use a special kind of sticker sheet with a white background (or somehow find someone with an ALPS printer that has white ink), your sticker or decal won't be visible on the darker shaded part of your Valk. 2) Make sure you remember and keep track of where each screw and part goes. Not all screws on a Valk are the same. I learned this the hard way with my YF-21. 3) For large areas, you'll probably want to spray paint the parts for a nice even look. 4). Be patient. Give parts time to dry, and take things slowly. Better to take your time and get it right the first time than rush through and realize you have to re-work or re-do certain parts. Hope this helps! And keep us posted on what you decide to do! -
Of those four, KO is the only option remotely appealing. And is that silly best of seven series so important that they couldn't put stinkin' Cesaro into the 4-way title match?!

Kenny Baker, actor behind R2-D2, has passed!
Mog replied to Omega Prime's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
To quoth the Vader: NOOOOOOOOOO!!! Rest in peace to the man behind the true BOSS of the Star Wars Saga (saves the Queen's ship, kills super battle droids twice his size gangsta style, lugs around Death Star schematics and completes his mission, doesn't take crap from Ewoks, hid Luke's lightsaber, saved Threepio's hide far too many times, and fought Yoda to a draw in Daigobah). -
Considering her quick bio straight up says "WILD CARD," I really didn't see anything wrong with the sequence. Harley's actions in the scenes in question pretty much demonstrated that wild card tendency in spades. Better to SHOW those actions on-screen instead of just have people talk about it. (That was my major annoyance with Attack of the Clones: Anakin always talked about how Obi was like a father to him, but none of the ACTIONS on-screen backed those statements up.) For me, the scene in question in Suicide Squad was effective for both story purposes and for character background.

Seemed pretty clear to me that Bats So, how many people watched this for free thanks to T-Mobile? [sheepishly raises hand] I think it was brought up earlier in the thread, but I'm glad they changed a scene Overall, the film had some hokey lines [i'm looking at you imaginary esposa de El Diablo!], but it was alright.

Other than seeing how it looks in fighter mode, I really hope they put some RATCHET joints in those shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees. That's gonna be a make-or-break factor right there. Plus, I secretly hope they're designing this with the idea of connecting it to a little old big and burly bomber.

Monkeyface Leia's got some competition now! So glad I never got into Hasbro's 6-inch line. Wake me when the well-articulated 3.75" figure line comes back.

Dang, Kanan's going full-Kenobi with that beard! Curious about the return of Pre Vizsla's darksaber too. Glad to see the blue-skinned tactician push his way back into canon. So, does this mean there's a chance we'll see Emperor Palpy pick up some Force-sensitive, red-haired girl down the line?

I've probably gone soft in my old age (especially after having kids), but I did enjoy Finding Dory. It kicked me in the feels a couple of times. But it was a fun, enjoyable, and silly romp. For me personally, I consider Finding Nemo one of the better Pixar entries out there, and Dory was a worthy sequel. SEPTOPUS!! Considering the voice actor involved, I wonder if one of the animators tried to slip in an image of Hank doing the Al Bundy "chilling with hand in crotch" move? Also, Piper was a cute little short.

If anyone's looking for a series to binge on, might I suggest Mr. Robot, Season 1? Why? Because Season 2 starts up "officially" this Wednesday, 7/13. Though apparently, the series creators already "leaked" the first hour of Season 2.

Independence Day: Resurgence, in theaters June 24, 2016
Mog replied to 505thAirborne's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Call me silly, but you'd think a movie called "Independence Day" would premiere. . . oh, I don't know . . . ON THE WEEKEND OF JULY 4TH (here in the United States)!! Just sayin'. Caught me by surprise, when my bro-in-law mentioned it came out last weekend instead. Stupid marketers.- 277 replies

Bandai Gobots/Machine Robo Series Toy Thread
Mog replied to David Hingtgen's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Thanks for the links to the additional pics. Wonder if Turbo will still come with those guns he was sporting in the prototype pics. Still not feeling the back fuselage part of Blackbird's jet mode. Just too blocky looking for my tastes. Though, it's probably still one of the better looking/robot concealing SR-71 toys out there now. -
I know Apocalypse is already a long film, but I wouldn't mind an extended DVD/Blu-Ray edition (ala the Lord of the Rings films). Seems like there was a lot of extra story bits that got edited out of the final film version for pacing and run-time purposes.

Just saw it. I can understand why critics are lambasting the movie. But if you're a fan of the comics, know a little bit about each of the featured X-Men, and know about Apocalypse, you'll probably appreciate it more than most. It's an Apocalypse story, so you kinda know the major story beats already: Apocy wakes up, gathers his Four Horseman, let's loose all hell, and then the X-Men and/or X-Factor try to stop him. I will say the final version of Apocalypse we see (and hear) on the big screen is much more improved than the one we initially saw in the trailer. Overall, I enjoyed the film Things I didn't like though: As for your question A7: Lastly, thank you for the meta-joke:
