Re: Studio Khara Sues Gainax for 100 Million Yen in Royalties

I'd have to check but I don't believe Gainax was credited at all in 3.0. Once Anno wrapped up dealing with material from the original show in the Rebuilds he bought them out & bid them adieu. I wonder if this is why Evangelion seems to have stopped being overmerchandised in the toy market. It n...

Re: I Think I Hate Isekai (Fantasy World) Anime

For a moment I thought this thread was about tube recommended the currently airing anime Isekai Shokudo. I checked it out because some guy on youtube recommended it, but every episode of the show is about the same thing. All this show is about is fantasy characters getting excited about eating food ...

Re: Which anime of today will be considered future classics? Bl

The best element to LWA, IMO, is that it runs to the edge of a post-magic setting. Just like how Logan is structurally a post-Western (of mutants), LWA kept piling on the evidence of how magic was steadily becoming not simply passé, but absent in the wider world. The world closed in on Charion and ...

Re: [Film] Prometheus + Sequels

So I saw alien covenent today. While not as good s the first two movies, it's by far the best thing to come out of the franchise since aliens imo. I really liked David in this movie, he's really grown as a character since promethius and I was kinda rooting for him to win honestly if just because wev...

Re: So who here is into Samurai Jack?

I must admit the finale gave me feels. I kinda knew it was coming but still, seeing Ashi disappear and Jack crying was tough to watch. Worse when you consider all the people he met in the future will likely also not exist anymore. Damn, 13 years and it's finally over, bittersweet ending and all it ...

There was almost a gainax panel, but then it got cancelled. I miss the days when Carl Horn was at acen and would just invite all the people who show up at the gainax related panels to party at his room.

Re: Rick and Morty

I have no reason not to trust the writers. Beth & Jerry's tumultuous marriage has been the main ongoing B story of Rick & Morty since it started. I'm sure the divorce will be given it's full focus once Season 3 actually starts this summer. I'm kinda hoping that guy I forget the name of from...

Re: Hollywood's "Ghost in the Shell"

I do wonder if they'd paid attention and had gone for an eastern actress if this would have been a slightly different story again not blaming Jo as its on the studios head. That Akira adaptions been in development hell for years and I don't see it leaving the starting line now and in my view no one...

Re: Controversial Anime Opinions

Gokus always made dumb decsions that could screw over everyone around him but he's always had the best forest gump luck in all of anime in that no matter what he does everything always turns out fine. I havent really been keeping up with super, but I doubt that is going to change.

Re: Hollywood's "Ghost in the Shell"

Saw this today, it wasn't bad but one thing I didn't care for is the movie was too heavy handed in how it dealt with the majors identity crisis, it was a lot more subtle in the anime versions.

Re: Godzilla & Kaiju General!

Godzilla: Monster Planet is VERY sci-fi. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2017-03-24/godzilla-anime-film-reveals-full-title-story-new-visual-november-premiere/.113863 Sounds promising. But also sounds very over-stuffed and could just as easily work like gangbusters as it could crash & burn....

Re: Terminator - Genisys (2015)

It still amazes me that a Terminator film didn't gross over $100 million at the US box office but that's just a sign of how truly dead this series is. But we're in the world of global cinema now so China gave it enough of a push for there to be at least one more. When Genesys came out my opinion on...

Re: Sadako vs Kayako (The Ring vs Ju-On) Film 2016

So yeah, just watched this. It's not a t errible movie, decently entertaining. But i did have a few issues with it. 1. They changed a lot of the mythology behind the ring for no real reason. I mean the number of days it took for the curse to take effect as well as certain details in how it worked go...

Re: What anime are you watching right now? Summer 2016 to now

The new little witch academia anime is crazy good. This is turning out like when each of the oavs came out and I watched each of them like 10 times except I've been doing that with the episodes. Even though it's the beginning of the year and only four episodes are out I'll be pretty surprised if I e...

Re: Forgotten Miyazaki - "On Your Mark" meltdown!

Too bad they never made a full movie of this. Rogue cyberpunk cops and a mysterious angel girl on the run sound like an awesome movie. Kinda wish Ghibli would do more scifi films, the world design was pretty awesome.
