    Good point. It is a dangerous time to test the hypothesis. But it does get kind of silly when close to half of the SOC lineup is Mazinger Z reissues and modifications.

    Hey, it's sold as a Honda in Japan. That is CLOSE ENOUGH.

    I was being sarcastic. And I don't see Drift as a luxury car. Whatever he is, it has "Type-R" at the end of the name.

    So... is it written somewhere that if Bandai doesn't release a new Mazinger Z toy every year, the Earth will fall into the sun or something?

    Galvatron was the name the humans gave to their reverse-engineered combat drone based on Megatron. When Megatron's neural imprint took over, the drone became Megatron again. He was never going to accept a name given to him by weak fleshlings, and he has the might to enforce that opinion. Okay, so he could still get more japanese. Actually, that bugged me in the last movie too. I know japanese cars are few and far between, but surely they could've found at least one worth using.

    Enterprise was retconned into a holodeck simulation by the final episode. And that wasn't even the biggest problem with the episode.

    Man, did you see that black-helmeted guy in the end? I sure hope we see more of him, he looks awesome! Oh, and bring back Kyle Katarn.

    I didn't think it was possible for Drift to become MORE of a japanophile. But here we are.

    As little sense as it makes, I'm glad to see Barricade back. The evil cop car mode still makes me smile.

    The fudge? The trailers are region-locked.

    Whoa. Got some Toonami nostalgia goin' on here. The matching Heero sculpture is just kinda hilarious. But less so than if they'd actually put him IN the big fancy coat.

    Biology is disgusting. Super space biology is super-disgusting.

    So over the space of about twelve hours, the long-anticipated and now-ironically-named Another Metroid 2 Remake* went into release and got DMCA takedown notices rained on it, likely by a lawyer who mistook it for an actual Nintendo-produced game. It is exactly what it set out to be. A remake of Metroid II in the style of Zero Mission. I'd say it is, quality-wise, on par with that game. Even if you, as I, don't particularly care for how Zero Mission did a lot of things, it is still worth a look. I'm sure you can still find it available for download somewhere. Streisand effect and all that. The soundtrack alone is wonderful, and worth the download. Harmony of the Hunter is still my go-to Metroid remix album(s), but the AM2R soundtrack has the advantage of thematic cohesiveness since everything is in a common style and from a common game. *When he started, literally a decade ago, there had been a sudden influx of interest in the long-maligned Metroid II, and he was something like the sixth person to announce he was doing a remake of Metroid II. All the rest of them fizzled out somewhere along the way.

    WHY?

    Longer than in TF:Animated!

    It is a weird friggin' gun, but it looks cool nonetheless.

    Shia LeDouf already got Prime killed once. People got over it.

    No, no. Megatron died, and they built Galvatron, and then Galvatron turned into Megatron. ... Even though he has no spark.

    They should just make his canon name "Turbo-revvin' Young Punk".

    That is actually really clever. Gets around MOST of the geometry issues presented by using a single square for a map, at a fraction of the cost of creating truly spherical maps.

    Basically, DC and Marvel have a long-running feud that boils down to whatever one does, the other will do the opposite just to prove they are different and thus better. And Marvel has made it their mission to make fun movies about all their characters. Consequently, it is DC's mission to make unfun movies about all their characters, to prove they're better.

    You're right, and it is really frustrating. Mirage has the potential to be a really interesting character, but she's being used as window dressing. I was really looking forward to the follow-up on that five-second scene about how the burden of her lineage weighs on her, but it has NEVER happened. Meanwhile, Mikumo gun steal Hayate when no one be watchin'.

    Mirage seriously needs to ask her grandmother for some dating tips. A few good dogfights and a knife fight later, and he will be putty in her hands.

    Sweet. I really don't know why I love six-changers so much, but I do. I love them to hexadeath.

    "... there’s probably been no moment in time where someone has unironically wanted to watch Wild Wild West at home ..." I... actually enjoyed the movie. It was another for the "so bad it's good" pile.
