Aww shucks, Lonewolfe, you beat me to it. I was just pulling up my archive of Link artwork to do the same. my favorite design of Link s the Link to the Past? Link's Awakening one. I'm just happy they put REAL detail into Link's clothing. The Soul Calibur (and SSMBM) one always looked too bland for all it's enhanced graphics (was understandable why the N64 Link had minimum detail). So far the only thing I'm not liking is how Link is slowly morphing into Legolas. It seems he's even fighting a LOTR inspired Balrog like creature in one of the shots. (BTW the kids at the Nintendo.com forums are all going crazy)

King Conan? Guess who's playing him
Jemstone replied to bsu legato's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
That's too long a time. Ever thought of getting hair extentions? -
FUNimation? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Anubis, I hope you're right and they don't manage to find a way to mess with the DVD release. Won't even bother with the CN version.

King Conan? Guess who's playing him
Jemstone replied to bsu legato's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I know but they could push back shooting till The Governator's reign is over. I didn't think Arnold wa splaying Conan in Red Sonja and it's also not his fault Conan the Destroyer was a flaming pile of poo. However, he has established himself as the live action character of Conan and it would help the movie if he remained Conan. Milus ahd to decide now after over a decade he wants to do this film.... -

King Conan? Guess who's playing him
Jemstone replied to bsu legato's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I've been waiting for this film for a while but amd now scared. For continuity issues I'd like for the role to be played by Arnold. HHH would be a disaster or are they just trying to destroy the franchise completely? -
Nice story? It was pretty nonsensical. A good part of it seemed to be an inside joke for an upcoming Wolverine spin off film starring Hugh Jackman! The whole need for Frankenstein is what was the most far fetched part. Reminded me of Magneto tieing Rogue to the Statue Of Liberty for a similar purpose in X-men. The movie was entertaining but it is crap.

I thought Anime Crash was out of business forever. Or is this a new company of the same name?

Children's entertainment... Yesterday and Today
Jemstone replied to Agent ONE's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
It's taken me days to review this topic. While I agree with the premise something kept disturbing me. It just hit me what bothers me with this topic. 1) Since when did we look to television and the media as a whole as some kind of guidance for our children? So what if kids are watching Tinky Winky playing wink wink with Po on the Teletubbies? Now I don't care for the Teletubbies and could careless how many kids watch it, hate Barney as much as anyone else with common sense but do some of you believe children (and your own for that matter) need actual role models from television shows? I find that insane. I liked the live action Wonder Woman as a child but Lynda Carter was hardly my role model. My own parents that taught me how to stand up for myself and also look out for myself are and always will be my role models. Sure it was cool to pretend to be a member of GI Joe and She-Ra every once in a while but even then I never thought of them as role models. I can't fathom a make believe character being a role model. 2) The term "pussification of the media". I've heard it alot but I don't think I REALLY need to explain why this offends me like nothing else on this web site. I would prefer people try much harder to leave my genitals out of their problems with the media. Don't even bother with it being a metaphor becaus eit's just inaccurate on so many levels I don't want to go there you DEFINATELY don't want me to go there. -
The Unofficial Front Mission 4 Thread
Jemstone replied to the white drew carey's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Wait... You had to order yours? I thought they just gave them away to Square (Enix) members that wanted one. In afct I didn't have to fill anything out at all. I got an email telling me about the demo which I didn't read or fill out. Then about 2 months later I got the demo in the mail. Haven't trie dit yet. Benn pretty busy so I'm looking forward to any reviews you have. -
Macross World Map Project.
Jemstone replied to Metal_Massacre_79's topic in Conventions and Local Gatherings
Here for the next 2 years anyways. Then I'll be on the west coast. latitude 32.0767 32° 4' 36" longitude -81.0857 -81° 5' 8" from travelgis decimal deg-min-sec latitude 32.0792231162992 32° 4' 45.2032186771" longitude -81.0843789959421 -81° 5' 3.76438539157" -
Thank you so very much! Back in Feb I wrote to some game mag (don't even rememebr which one) after an editor did nothign but kiss the few screen shots they had of FFXII at the time. I said absically what you said here only I really hate these blonde lead characters they keep having. Diversity apparently doesn't exist at Square(Enix). You should try FF5 if you ahven't yet. Wasn't bad and I don't get why it never saw an SNES US release.
-
Yes, it did. That's a bit understandable becauses that's as close to a translation her name is when you romanize it from the Japanese characters but still they should ahve typed her name out correctly on the box if they were going to use western alphabet.
-
Still, you can't choose BOTP as the best dubbed version. It has 7-Zark-7 for goodness' sakes!
-
This is somewhat off topic but why do people always refer to Houquet's name as Fuke? Yes, I know there is no way Japanese spelling of Houquet and the closes romanji characterizing is "Fuke". However, why do we, who actually speak English and can WRITE French words with our very own alphabet fail to say and type "Houquet"?!?! Japanese to Engrish to French is one thing but there isn't any excuse when one doens't even need to know how to speak French! I'm sorry but I had to get that off my chest as it has bothered me for years and this thread was the straw that broke the camel's back. Also the mere fact French is my native language may play a role in this I realize. Oh, yeah, nice work on the armour, Sam.
-
Ah, thanks. They are both crap and blasphemous to the original Gatchaman if you ask me. Yet, I found G-Force with all it's extremely lame names was somewhat better given they didn't edit as much as BOTP was edited.
-
Thanks, I didn't know there was a manga. I'll seek it out. I also gotta say I don't care the opening and ending sequences of this series. Too much 'wanna be hip hop" in the opening and waaaay too much "Aya staring blankly" in the closing.
-
Wait, is it Battle of the Planets or "G-Force" (same show but totally different dubbing and amounts of editing).
-
Does anyone know how long this series will be for? 26 episodes or more? I know only about 4 or 5 episodes have aired in Japan so far. This is the first new martial arts anime I eally enjoy in a long time. I highly recommend it. I can't wait for more despite too much of Aya!! On the other hand I find Air Master really stupid.
-
Thanks, man. When I first saw this pic I couldn't put into words how I was feeling. What you said pretty much sums it up.

ADV press-release about EVA Platinum-edition (r1)
Jemstone replied to treatment's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
See, bud, that why I never bought a ADV DVD release of the series. After their first "remastered" fiasco I made it a point not to buy EVA from ADV ever again. In afct I'm not even sure this one will be good. ADV tends to screw up at one point or another. -
Well, once again I missed tonight's episode. I think it's best if I find a site to just download them. Doesn't look like I'll be able to catch another episode nor tape it (this is why I need TiVo)

This is a sad, sad, sad day.

Opinion: best starfighter designs ever
Jemstone replied to renegadeleader1's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I've always wondered that as well. Most likely influenced from it because the Exo-Squad creators were big Robotech fans and wanted to create a Robotech-like series. I refsue to choose a favorite fighter design that is not a Valkyrie. -
Proof that CN is going to butcher Gundam SEED
Jemstone replied to Mechamaniac's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
No, you're beyond belief if you thought that immature stupidty was actually funny. Then again considering the source I am not at all surprised. "My poor InuYasha" indeed.
