    I finished the first disc of Claymore. Its okay, but I wish it wasn't as predictable as it is. I already seem to have a sense of where this series is going. Maybe its me and I've just seen too much anime these days. EDIT: I do have one question. What is it about a Claymore's body that would make a bunch of horny rapist bandits say "no thanks"? Well except for the one wounded bandit that attempted it on the revenge/humiliation angle before he got whupped on.

    I finished HOTD and liked it alot and hope a new season comes out. When they introduced that sleazy teacher I thought he was going to ruin the show, but I was actually surprised with how he was handled. Now on to Claymore. I heard a lot of things comparing it Berserk as a kinda kindred spirit to it. All I want to know is if I liked Berserk will I like this?

    She's the one that almost killed the porn industry Oh yeah miss "I'm underage but I'll fake my ID, make a bunch of movies, become a huge star, and when I'm finally legal I'll make one film I only own the rights then come out and admit I was underage. That way I can make a killing and use the infamy to launch a mainstream career!"... So how did that work out?

    I started watching Highschool of the dead, and I couldn't help but notice the school nurse reminds me of the main character from Grenadier. Grenadeir isn't a bad show once you get over the fact that Rushuna has huge boobs and uses them as part of her revolver reloading technique. The final battle is actually one of the most impressive anime gunfights ever. EDIT: Oh yeah the male lead isn't an whimpy whiner boy either.

    I just got my copy for the 360 and like mikeszekely mine was also the last copy. So far I like it. 1.The graphics are nicely overhauled, love the cell shading 2.Its good to see Kou Uraki back in a game 3.I noticed they borrowed the battle gauge from fed vs zeon so you can die and respawn till the bar is out. 4.The tutorial missions are crap. The little blurb says something along the line of "so and so is a powerful move/enemy to use/kill learn how to use/kill it here. BUT IT DOESN'T ACTUALLY TELL YOU HOW TO DO IT. Not to mention the first one throws you up against the Big Zam. Only my prior DWG experience saved me. Newbies are going to be like WTF?!?! 5.The variety of gundam shows is amazing I think the only thing I haven't seen so far is anything from "for the barrel" 6.The enemy aces respawning is kinda annoying so far.

    If the book version of starship troopers was used it would only be 20 minutes, and consist of "deploy from drop pods, hey we found this girl, picked up signals of other colonists, roast chest burster with built in flamer, fight off xenomorphs hand to hand using suits strength, fire grenade launchers, lose maybe one or two troopers to acid fall back, mini nuke site, call retrieval ship, THE END. EDIT: as for a star wars/aiens crossover, the only thing preventing it is lucas's creative control. Both are Fox products. That still hasn't prevented little easter eggs from popping up in the comics/books.(a xeno drinking at a bar in the rogue squadron phantom ship arc, the narcissus escape pod parked in mos eisley in the crossection book, one of the things inside the sarlaac in tag and binks) None of the appearances are canon though. Just like the 2001 pod being in watto junkyard.

    1.John Cena may claim Boston, but Boston does not claim him. 2.The Boston Bruins as a 3rd seed coming out of a supposedly weak eastern conference, went through 2 game 7 series, riding their aging goalie, WERE AN UNDERDOG against The Vancouver Canucks the regular season points champion, number 1 seed from the west, with multiple 40 goal scorers, and supposedly the best goalie in the league.

    I wish the Arizona looked a little more like its real life counterpart. At least the Yamato despite being all gussied up still looked like the real life yamato not some generic ship. I like the Petr Veliki, its obviously supposed to be a mass produced of the movie version Arcadia. I love the tributes to the spitfire, mustang, and the viking. The Ibuki looks like a deathtrap. Very few anti aircraft guns, and the rear facing turrent is essentially useless with its firing angles blocked.

    That reminds me they just released the only other black guy besides Lando from the original trilogy as part of the Endor pilots pack TRU exclusive. The "ITS GONNA BLOW!" guy. EDIT: one of the two packs also includes that poor bastard tie pilot that got stuck behind the Falcon as it made its escape from the death star.

    The thing is Godannar was tongue in cheek intentionally funny, yet had a good plot along with the fan service. Magnos on the otherhand with enemies like "Xerxes Tireiron Dada" and "Octopud IV" well you can probly guess... apparently google vid had some episodes. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6596418551121405086#

    This is awesome! I decided to look up the Skyray and the Fighting Falcon to see if anyone was behind both projects and I came up with Ed Heinemann. He was the guy that designed the Skyray(won an award for it) for Douglas and was the VP of engineering for General Dynamics where his last project was overseeing the F-16 prior to his retirement. There is definatly his handprint on both planes. He also has quite the resume... SBD Dauntless dive bomber A-20 Havoc light bomber/attack aircraft A-26 Invader light bomber/attack aircraft A-1 Skyraider attack aircraft A-3 Skywarrior bomber A-4 Skyhawk light bomber F3D Skyknight night fighter F4D Skyray carrier-based fighter aircraft As for what I'd like to see from a Vietnam era Ace Combat, I would love to see a couple of missions based around the FAC/SAR/ close air support, as an excuse to fly an OV-10 bronco or an A-1 skyraider. More flak and ground fire too, sometimes it seems a little too safe flying into the enemies fortified capital.

    Yeah thats from a very early O'bannan(I think it was him) treatment that got axed under the belief it was too expensive for SFX/sets to do. Parts of the idea later were used in the first AVP film.

    Personally I wouldn't want the F-3 Demon anywhere near an ace combat game unless I was trying to get myself killed in that underpowered POS deathtrap. The only good thing about is that it became a stepping stone to the Phantom. The skyray on the other hand is a great little plane, and I swear after being able to get up close and personal with one and the new england air museum, that who ever designed the F-16's airframe had that plane in mind.

    The setting of this movie is only supposed to be 80 years before "alien". As for wether humans should already have the bio technology do you really expect any of the humans to survive to make it back? Maybe a radio message describing what happened, butI wouldn't be surprised if this movie ends with everyone going back to their cryopods only to have some poor sap that got hugged earlier in the movie gets busted. Finally I just wanted to add Ridley Scott is THE THE ORIGINAL F'ING SOURCE MATERIAL! EDIT: as to fossilization we don't even know if thats the actual space jockey or just part of the ship/spacesuit.

    I found this on youtube and figured you guys might get a kick out of it.

    Well I can't read japanese, but MAGNOS!!!! The only super robot handi-capable with a built in wheelchair! I remember the first time I saw this at the bad anime bad panel at anime boston. It has the most convoluted transformation sequence of any super robot. Fall down tube clothes transform, land in figher plane that launches seperately from smaller robot, enter said smaller robot with fighter plane through its butt, join together with partners smaller robot to create medium robot, eject from said medium robot and wait for other modules to launch, when said modules launch grab parter and spin in circles to form belt buckle, attach to said modules and hang in air, form Magnos and wait for said medium robot to split to smaller robots from earlier to form rockets to aid flight since the big robot can't fly on its own, finally activate wheelchair since Magnos can't run for more than five minutes without burning out the leg motors. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTtMnP147BU

    I wouldn't watch that if you want mecha action. For the most part only the first 10 min of the movie is mecha action. Then it goes all Law & Order type drama.

    You have to understand Bay got his start shooting several playboy videos (he will only admit to one which he was stupid enough to use his real name on) he also directed music videos like the divinyls "I touch myself"... so um yeah...

    I'm curious was there ever backlash agaisnt this or the rebirth movie because japanese fans feel that Matsumoto is the real creator of yamato and not Nishizaki like the courts decided?

    Gundam the origin Is the equivilent of the lord of the rings movies. It remains faithful to the source material, while adding things and smoothing out the pacing. EDIT: As for continuity who can say yet. There are somethings that are different like the order in which the battles occur (jaburo first then odessa) and the route the white base takes to get to Jaburo in the first place.

    All I want to say is if you like Sean Bean watch the Sharpe's Rifles series of movies the BBC did.

    Just curious is anybody here willing to do a custom paint job for pay? I have an HGUC MS-06S char's custom Zaku that I need painted in black and gold to become a "Chara custom" in honor of the Boston Bruins winning the Stanley Cup. To put in plainly I suck at painting no matter how hard I try and this would mean a lot to me. EDIT: Zdeno Chara is the captain of the Boston Bruins.

    Don't get me wrong the books are very, very good. Things actually do pick up by the second book.
