I thought I remembered liking the original Godzilla films when I was little, and that the CGI abomination in '95 sealed the deal that a decent Godzilla film couldn't be made outside of Japan...that is, until this film. So, me, thinking of myself as a Godzilla fan, went back and downloaded like 25 or so original Godzilla films, and though some of the earlier black and white ones were entertaining, that latest "Final Wars" was beyond unwatchable. I couldn't even get through the first 25 minutes. I skipped through to the fight scenes, and I can't believe something so crappy was made in 2004 for the big screen. And I'm not the kind of guy who always trashes the old stuff and blindly follows the masses whenever there is something shiny and exploding (ie, that *ucking hack Michael Bay and his Transformers series). I love old stuff, but I have to agree with you that the acting in some, if not many of the Godzilla films were absolutely brutal and too $hitty to watch. Over 30 gigs of downloading, weeks to get it all done, an took less then 10 seconds to decide to delete the entire folder.

Kill me now. Can you imagine if that hack got his hands on Macross?

Terminator 5/Terminator: Genisys, opening July 1, 2015
peter replied to areaseven's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Flinching used to bug me as well, but then so did fingers always on the trigger and full-auto shooting from the hip, with unlimited ammo, but it’s Hollywood so I’ve come to expect that they seldom get it right. When they do get it right, it’s pretty awesome. Good example is Tom Cruise in Collateral. CG Arnie is good, but I guess CG technology still isn’t quite there yet where they can just CGi Arnie altogether and just have him do the voice. Tron was well done, but still looked a bit funny. Facial expressions and talking still need work.- 508 replies

LOL, when you said big scale, I thought it was some custom jobby in someones basement that was like that lego monster someone built of IJN Yamato or something truly massive. Still, thats a pretty nice build of the 1/500. I was tossing around the idea of picking up the GX64 on sale at amazon right now (Its dirt cheap right now at $179) but the more I look at it, the more I realize how lacking in detail it is compared to a real model like the 1/500. I havent built a model in years, but I think I might get back into it just to tackle this one. $179 for a completely built Yamato on a smaller scale with lights and sound, hassle free, versus $100 for a larger scale, more detailed kit that I have to build myself.....I’d get both, but the wife would have my balls. This is still one of my favourite 1/500 builds that Ive seen so far: Love the wood decking and blue lighting treatment in contrast to the standard grey decking and green light windows.

So Japanese, the thing he did with the arm when ordering the guns to fire on the rebel ship, not to mention the "Macross" missiles. Awesome, wish they made more. Dafuq? Haha, I was about to say he needs a tissue, then the bastard started to rub one out with the droid or whatever that was and I had to turn that $hit off.

I think it was during a conversation with Uncle Owen about staying on another season and going to the Acedemy next year. Anyways, seems like it was explained in the novels.

I’ve got a couple of questions I was wondering if someone here knew. Luke mentioned that he wanted to go to “The Academy”, which academy is that, the Imperial Academy? Because he also knew about the Rebellion against the Empire, so who’s side was he on? Also, has there been any talk about whether or not any of the clone troopers from Clone Wars will make an appearance in Star Wars Rebels? It’d be cool to find out what happened to Cody and Rex. I don’t know about anyone else, but some of those troopers really grew on me and thought it was pretty cool that they touched on their individual personalities in Clone Wars.

Anyone here detailing up the Hasbro Hero series Millenium Falcon? http://www.scalemodeladdict.com/SMF/index.php/topic,11788.0.html -

Woah, is this the real deal? I heard there was a pretty impressive fan-film floating around out there. Either way, I think I liked it. Millenium Falcon's really maneuverable. X-wings flying in atmo over water is interesting. As a sword practitioner, yeah, laser sword guards will result in self-amputation. They looked effin cool, despite being very dangerous for the user. Haha, the Falcon has a new radar dish

+1, just having a little fun with it. I doubt anything will stop me from going to see this unless they suddenly make an announcement saying, just kidding, Michael Bay was filling in for JJ this whole time
