  1. No. Because the cover art was great as-is.
  2. Hey, hey, hey! AC/DC is never horrible. The trailer however is megashit. 347444[/snapback] Point 1 is debatable. Point 2 isn't, though.
  3. Yah. The shorter legs are a little better.
  4. Nuking it from orbit: The official solution to all your problems.
  5. I'd make an offer if I weren't broke. And I've have the ROM image for years.
  6. I believe they've said 6 eps a disk is the target. Not sure, though.
  7. I think I heard something about Sean Connery providing the voice of Hikaru...
  8. Thank goodness.
  9. That actually came from the director's mouth during a Q&A that followed a pre-screening of AvP. He claimed the theatrical release is missing a lot of scenes that would have made it a better movie and these scenes would be restored in a future DVD release. 347064[/snapback] Does that mean Fox is planning a THIRD DVD remix of the show?
  10. That 70s woodgrain look has power.
  11. Until they leap out and bite you in the face...
  12. I want s-video on my NES! (I am, in fact, being 100% serious here) 346827[/snapback] You win the hardcore award! 346849[/snapback] Nah. The guys adding RGB out are harder-core. Sadly, there's no way to GET s-video from an NES, and I don't have anything that can take RGB at NTSC timings. Mmmm, Berzerk... ... I wonder if a stereo mod is feasable for the 5200. I THINK all 4 of POKEY's voices come out one pin, but I'm not sure. Rats. POKEY's confirmed as a single-channel device. Can't get better than mono out of it. While one COULD build a 6-channel surround sound conversion circuit, the only advantage would be if you put a crossover in the design so your low-frequency stuff went to the subwoofer. ... Well, that and being "in" the sound instead of in front of it. Flashback 2 kthx. The FB1 is an NES with badly-recoded games on it. FB2 is a real 2600. BUT... http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-3000_7-6388175.html FB2 is running neck and neck with the 360.
  13. Unless something drastic happens(like my Animeigo disks suddenly split in 2), I'm going with no. I don't care about the dub, and I have no problems with the current subs. I really see no reason to replace my existing set.

  15. On the upside, the director knows how to do a movie with lots of fighting and minimal chitchat.
  16. It was. But the less said about AVP, the better.
  17. ADV got permission to do a dub. And they're redoing the subs. If I recall, they're putting more episodes per disk too.
  18. Always. Having said that, I really dislike the packaging being shown. Let me preface my commentary by saying that I LIKE Animeigo's packaging. The DVD case: There's nothing wrong with the art, but the layout as a whole... IMO, putting solid bars along the top and bottom instead of finding a way to integrate your logo into the design is just The box: Bleh. I don't care WHO did the art, that zentradi clubbing a VF-1 is a lousy spokesperson for the series. And the package reeks of laziness. Failing a single wide piece that could wrap around the box, they could've found some that at least had a similar color scheme. And that reguld pic needs to be moved to the open side, or have some sort of a frame added. Seeing the Earth cut off like that as you round the corner just sucks. The new logo: I dislike it, but understand the logic. The old one, with it's heavy emphasis on the japanese characters, doesn't lend itself well to mass-market. However, I would have liked to see one more similar to the original logo, "ZOMG STAR WARS" accusations be damned(the slant of the original logo really DOPES beg for some scrolling yellow text...). The UN Spacey emblem used in the new logo looks more like an A than an O. I keep reading it as Macrass. NOT a good first impression. I hope the final box at least uses the full text seen on the DVD case instead of the abbreviated one now being shown. Mainly because I want to see the whole title out there. The abbreviated logo also feels a tad off-balance, but that may be due to the shoddy layout on the hopefully-placeholder box. I'm actually leaning toward the layout end, given it doesn't look near as out-of-place on the reguld side as the zentran side. I'm hoping that box is merely a preliminary placeholder, and has no relevance whatsoever on the final product.
  19. Could be a low-residue meal. If it's "pure" enough, he might not have any solid waste. Just urine.
  20. I believe you mea "The trailer raped my childhood."
  21. Things aren't always that easy, Skullsixx. Like it or not, businesses are very rarely intrested purely and solely in benefitting the fans. Their main concern is making a living/profit. I thought there was an implied "one of us" in his statement. If WE bought HG, it would cater to the fans. ... At least until catering to the fans ceased to be a viable business model. Then we'd have to start increasing brand awareness(educating the Robotechies), and branching out into other products.
  22. Yah. Week or 2 back. Even the people that like Smallville didn't care. They already did "The Flash" on TV. Linky /tuned in every week. 344994[/snapback] I loved The Flash. Of course, if they did it now it'd be teen angst drama, and thus much less lovable.
  23. Can somebody say, "hypocrite" around here? How do you explain your quoting of Roy's Blues' image of his Motoko figures (1524 x 2032 and nearly 800KB in size) on page 4 of the "Show off your coolest non-Macross toys & models" thread, when the pic was posted on page 1? 344751[/snapback] Was on the same page for me. It was, however, admittedly stupid.
  24. where were you guys when I was selling the two I had oh well... I already told you who got them so you can harass them now 344698[/snapback] Broke. Just like now, actually... so I think I was lying. But I'd drool over it and wish I could afford to buy it!
