    I was going to say "Predaking or GTFO" but that actually DOES look pretty cool.

    I thought it was funny. Never mind.

    Hey, at least the dinosaur-city transformation has two distinct modes. Optimus Primal doesn't even make sense, he's got two different animal forms and no machine form. Not even distinctly different animals, they're both primates!

    RIGHT BEHIND YOU!

    Pretty much, yeah. We could just rename this "The Jenius Girl Speculation Thread" for a few weeks now. Also, why is Mustang not wearing fancy dress clothes like everyone else? I'm confused.

    Given the positive rainbow that Max and Millia created, purple hair doesn't mean she isn't Komillia's child. I'm holdin' onto that dream! Yes, and ewww. Please, Basara only had eyes for his guitar. And maybe Sivil, but I think that was just because she appreciated his song more, ummm, thoroughly than most.

    I was gonna wait for the crowds to die down, but if the current rate of people walking up and just blurting out spoilers continues, I'm gonna have to see it soon before someone just narrates the entire dang film to me.

    But, but... I want to see Komillia! It's the vestigial Robotechie in me, I suppose, that feels it is important to see what happened to their first kid. Just as long as she doesn't have a blonde afro this time.

    And thus does Komillia return to the stage as Mirage's mother!

    Happened with the original Star Trek 3. The destruction of the Enterprise was supposed to be a surprise, and first they learned it wouldn't be was when they saw the TV ad.

    Two words. Klan. Klan. In the right person, micloning can cause a DRASTIC change in shape.
  13. JB0
    Or when they use a micloning chamber? There IS precedent for people undergoing large physical changes with size change.

    I was thinking less "because they'll never meet all their promises" and more along the lines of "because then the donation train would stop."

    At this point, I'm wondering if Star Citizen can actually AFFORD to come out of alpha and into release mode.

    It wouldn't be Star Trek if you didn't write a script that ignored/directly contradicted last week's episode.

    Good for Kojima. He's needed to get out of Konami for a good while, if you ask me. Now he's got room to stretch his legs again, and doesn't have to keep reinventing Metal Gear.

    Actually, I think it is what the "true fans" want. It's not a bad movie, though certainly not without it's flaws. Soundwave and Blaster both lived, and Shockwave was Sir Not Appearing In This Film. ... What? I thought Blaster was awesome. Modern Hasbro is definitely a lot more child-savvy. My understanding is it never dawned on them while doing the original movie that kids might see these characters as "people" instead of just their toys doing silly things on the TV. Though of course, they've killed several characters off in the kid-oriented media since then, so in a way the original movie was groundbreaking for US children's entertainment. And, well, they didn't gun down half the cast in pointless stands of futility. EVERYONE goes out like Prime nowadays.

    The original creators didn't write Trek into a corner. A pair of incompetent hacks proud of the fact they had no knowledge of the franchise's history did. A pair of hacks that took over after the original creator was dead(not that Roddenberry was a saint himself, but...). But what do I know? I'm a non-fan that never liked anything before the Abrams movies. It isn't like I grew up watching Trek reruns, I DEFINITELY never wanted to be Captain Kirk when I grew up, I was totally not excited as hell to see them doing a BRAND-NEW STAR TREK SERIES, and I absolutely positively didn't waste hours of my life buried in Trek books because watching two shows a week PLUS RERUNS wasn't enough Trek for me. No, I never really cared much for Star Trek at all.

    I... didn't say they were films? I said the franchise was doing a fine job destroying itself without Abrams' help, not that the Voyager and Enterprise movies killed the franchise. And, well... while I also didn't say universally, I DID say near-universally. And I stand by that. The balance of opinion on both shows is far more against them than for them*. Hell, Enterprise actually got Trek kicked off the air, putting an end to two decades of continuous Star Trek productions. It DID come within a stone's throw of killing the franchise. I remember how crazy it was when Deep Space 9 started, and we had TWO STAR TREK SHOWS AT ONCE. Those days were awesome. *I happen to think Enterprise was, on average, better than Voyager, but recognize that is ALSO a minority opinion. And when Enterprise was bad, it was VERY bad.

    I don't think the A and B ever got canonically destroyed. Obviously they were retired from service, but there's no indication it was a violent retirement. The E was pretty banged up, but not retired, when last seen. Same is true of the NX-01, if I recall correctly. I didn't actually WATCH the final episode of that one, I admit. But yeah, it wouldn't be the first time they blew up an Enterprise. It's highly likely, if the last movie's desperate attempt to homage/crap on the bullet points of Star Trek II is any indication.
  22. JB0
    It can hardly be worse than the status quo.
  23. JB0
    Oh, come on. The franchise was doing a fine job of destroying itself without JJ's help. Voyager and Enterprise are near-universally reviled, and justifiably so.
  24. JB0
    I won't, because I still have to watch two of the prequel movies if I do.
  25. JB0
    Oh, did they back off of that idea? I'm kind of disappointed to learn that. I mean, sure it was an awful idea, and (obviously) I wasn't going to watch it either way, but.. dammit, OWN your crazy!
