    Bottom line: Toynami had a darker green, but the Aoshima’s green is closer to the green used by Sentinel. On another topic, it’s too bad they didn’t add some different clear pieces to change the head sensors’ colors.

    Yeah, based on the pics, it looks like the Toynami greenie was more military/olive-drab green, while Sentinel went for a more bright green. Which is odd. . . considering the Toynami Red Alpha was a bright red while the Sentinel Zeta was a darker red. 🤷‍♂️ Oh! And Sentinel, please make Houquet red like a rose. 😉 #HouquetRouge

    I actually liked the second season of Iron Fist. First season was definitely dog crap, and they did screw a ton of things and shouldn’t have focused so much on the corporate junk. And why they didn’t just let him rock the yellow bandana mask (other than that flashback), I have no bloody clue. But making Colleen Wing the new Iron Fist was a brilliant move, and I wish we could have seen the follow up of that idea.

    As annoying as it's been, I do understand the business reasons for the delay. Again, I'm still hopeful we'll finally get Houquet, as Sentinel seems to have a bunch of other lines and products that they produce. Thanks to that bigger pic @enphily posted, I just noticed that the Iota in the back has eyes painted on the side of the "head." That's a bit different from the norm.

    Still a trip that he also voiced Ed Wuncler I on the Boondocks too. To the old school.

    Maybe we had this wrong the whole time? Maybe the hot pink pilot that came with the Zeta wasn’t supposed to be Houquet at all? It was supposed to be Sorji!!!

    It’d be cool if they give you swappable color sensors/visors like that box cover art. EDIT: Hopefully, Houquet and the Bartley are up next.

    My only gripe with the latest episode is:

    For those of you who watched Kim’s Convenience, poor Jung left Toronto for the MCU, but he still got Appa issues!

    We should make a drinking game for this series: any time we see an anime trope? Take a shot or swig! If the show is good, we’ll be entertained and (more than likely) buzzed. If it’s bad, we’ll be drunk off our gourds. Win-win.

    Ya gotta admit: it’s efficient! 🤣 Surprisingly enjoyed the ep. Didn’t think it would make much sense, but they gave a good enough premise for why T’Challa instead of Quill. Definitely was a fun take on T’Challa and gave Boseman a chance to give the character a little more humor.

    RIP, God-cutting sword master. After reading the link, someone fill me in on Karate Bearfighter. The film name alone piques my interest.

    Those white and blue armors and armaments for the Angel Birds, NB4M? 🤔

    Part 1 of the finale was good, but Part 2 was meh. Again, we’ll see where the story goes from here. But there’s areas that need improvement and more development.

    Am I the only idiot who thought Starro moved like a guy in a rubber suit? Don’t get me wrong: it added to the character’s . . . umm . . . “charm.”

    As a change of pace, probably inaccurate, but it does add to his legend: Don’t F*%k with R2-D2! 🤪

    It'd be nice if they tossed in his astromech droid too.

    Unabashedly violent, yet doesn’t take itself too seriously. I was looking for a silly fun romp, and this film delivered. Seriously, THAT’S how you subvert expectations!

    I have my own reasons for being disappointed with Loki, but I think the guy’s fishing too much for things that aren’t there. Too surface level/superficial with his commentary. I hate that the finale dumbed itself down to the trope of “hero battling a ‘bad guy’ version of himself.” And I hate that feeling that the show didn’t close properly and felt more like set-up for the next batch of MCU films and for next season of Loki. But before that, it was a bit of a fun “Who’s lying to who?” story.

    I know I’ve mentioned the show before, but seriously: Ted Lasso. After a bit of a shaky season premiere episode (one cruelly funny incident, but a bit of a reset, shake-up, and catch-up), this Season 2 Episode 2 was like a well-oiled machine, hitting on all cylinders with its comedy and heart.

    I hate to admit it, but it doesn't surprise me. Any time a new technology or medium arises, the studios try to finagle their way around paying the writers or actors an equitable cut. It happened before when Ron Moore's BSG started producing webisodes for the internet. So of course the lawyers are going set everything to the Mouse's advantage: "Oh we can't pay you so much because of the pandemic! Oh! The premium funds from the purchases on the +? That's not in YOUR contract; you don't get a cut!"

    If true, these are both valid points. But they could have made him part of some sort of peacekeeping force, and then have him just have a string of bad luck. Again, the hero's journey is already laid out there. You don't have to follow the comic book beats exactly. But "ex-military guy who keeps getting hit with tragedies left and right BUT keeps getting back up" is a general enough template to develop your movie around. I swear it's like these recent movies/shows allow the story to dictate how the characters will act, rather than the characters informing where the story should go.
