d3v Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Speaking of Aliens, anyone else think that the rifle Alto was using looked similar to the M41A pulse rifle. Quote
Morpheus Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Speaking of Aliens, anyone else think that the rifle Alto was using looked similar to the M41A pulse rifle. Need comparison pic before one can decide Chayenne dropship = Chayenne II destroid? Quote

Need comparison pic before one can decide Chayenne dropship = Chayenne II destroid? Did a bit of Googling and came up with these: Ex-Gear Rifle: M41A: BIG PiC: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v624/Zer...e3f4a9e09_o.jpg A whole bunch more of M41A PiCs: http://images.google.com.ph/images?ndsp=18...tart=0&sa=N Quote
Kronnang Dunn Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Speaking of Aliens, anyone else think that the rifle Alto was using looked similar to the M41A pulse rifle. Of course it does. And I believe another influence maybe Starcraft... The Vajra mothership and the carriers may be different evolved forms of Hostile Vajra... Just like the Zerg... Quote

Kronnang Dunn Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 (edited) Does that mean then that Ranka becomes the Queen B***h of the Universe ? Maybe... All that fragility, simplicity and docility are just the prelude of something waaaaay bigger. Don't underestimate Ranka... Check the analogy... "Vajra are to Valkyries what Aliens are to Humans"...

Kronnang Dunn Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 (edited) wh-hat?? you mean gubaba can kick humanity's ass anytime? Hehehe... I was talking about the Acid-for-blood-tough-as-nails-inner-spring-tongue-jaw-deadly-Aliens... Edited July 8, 2008 by Kronnang Dunn Quote
Gubaba Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 wh-hat?? you mean gubaba can kick humanity's ass anytime? I totally want to put that in my sig... Quote
VFTF1 Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 I initially thought the title of this thread was: "Watch Aliens Munch Shoji" and became very interested. Then it turns out it's about Aliens. Bummer. VFTF1 Quote
Garou Kuroryuu Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 (edited) If this was indeed an Aliens-saga anime hommage/remake/rip-off/whatever-u-wanna-call-it, I want a BIG FUGGING BODY COUNT!!! Where's the dead people, DAMN IT?!?!?!?!?!? We've only had one tiny squishy death.... (not counting vajras) ¬¬U Edited July 8, 2008 by Garou Kuroryuu Quote
dreamweaver13 Posted July 8, 2008 Posted July 8, 2008 Hehehe... I was talking about the Acid-for-blood-tough-as-nails-inner-spring-tongue-jaw-deadly-Aliens... i dunno.. the hybrid in alien resurrection looked pretty weak, specially when he was facing his mommy. gubaba might have given him a run for his money. gubaba, you'd like that, wouldn't you? hehe. now what did humanity do to you to deserve an ass kicking, huh?

I've said it before, I'll say it again: riding on a moody 14-year-old bassist's shoulder ain't the sweet ride some would make it out to be. Either I end up squished under her arm when we're in bed, or she decides it's "bath time," and I end up swallowing about a gallon of dirty Mylene bath water. And you don't even WANT to know how long it takes for her to drop a load...and my only Gyararashi-box in in the bathroom! But THEN, if I poop on the floor (which is HER FAULT for taking so damn long in the first place), she starts hitting me with a newspaper! And the "Galaxy Sport" is HEAVY, dammit! *whew* Sorry for going on so long, but hey, you asked. Quote

Morpheus Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 So on which episode we can see Alto VF-25 armed with flame thrower rescuing Ranka from the Vajra Queen? Quote
Kronnang Dunn Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 (edited) Homeless anonymous slum girl Sheryl kinda looks like Newt... I also believe that the instrumental themes from the soundtrack (specially the Vajra theme and the Frontier 2059 theme) have lots of influences from the Aliens soundtrack by James Horner... Edited August 16, 2008 by Kronnang Dunn Quote
nemesis_trooper Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 (edited) So on which episode we can see Alto VF-25 armed with flame thrower rescuing Ranka from the Vajra Queen? DONE- armored Vf-25 vs Vajra queen rescuing Ranka (tho Brera did the actual rescuing instead)... Edited August 18, 2008 by nemesis_trooper Quote
sharky Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 (edited) Referring to Ranka "This little girl survived being kidnapped by the Vajra with no weapons and no training." "Why don't you put her in charge!?" Edited August 19, 2008 by sharky Quote
hobbes221 Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Okay I posted this in another thread a while back because for some reason I couldn't find this one so I'll toss it out here as well. So near the end of episode 18 when Cathy tells Skull flight to protect the ship and Michael has a line that goes something like 'easy for you to say, we might as well be naked out here' (not word for word, please no rants) I got that line from Aliens 'What the h*ll are we supposed to use man? Harsh language?' by Frost in my head as soon as he said it. Quote

I get more the feeling of what Hikaru says to Misa about being all comfy in the control tower, instead of out in the field where the real deal was being done. Quote
electric indigo Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 ZOMG the dog-legged Alien from the third movie made it into Frontier - get a flamethrower! Quote
Mr March Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Almost looks like an Octos from Macross Zero Quote
