Re: Pacific Rim
I'm just going to point out that most of what you guys are discussing was part and parcel of the mecha genre and tokusatsu before Evangelion even existed, obviously because Anno worked on those kinds of shows before hand or watched them. A few of the pacific rim designs do take cues from mobile suit...

Re: What anime are you watching right now? Summer 2016 to now
Where is the story going? Is it just going to be monster fights a week ad nauseam You're on an Evangelion fan forum, Gundam, Sailor Moon, everything of that calibre requires some kind of conditioning to that kind of thing of intensive endless monster of week and general combat, which can only be ac...

The show looks to be embarassing, though I suppose casting Jaden Smith makes that the shows modus operandi?

Re: Hayao Miyazaki updates enemies list
Miyazaki is a part of the old guard who shits on everything knew, with generally good reason, Tomino does the same thing, albeit with more murderous invective.

Re: Star Wars
That's Mustafar. The same hellscape evil planet where Anakin "died" and Vader was born in ROTS. I suppose he stays there to remind himself of his greatest failure and fuel his dark side rage. Interesting that they tied that in, but I wouldn't have thought it was Mustafar, maybe if it was ...

Re: Star Wars
edit: I'm confused as hell and thought this was the superhero thread. It helps that it's all part of the same shit sandwich. I watched Rogue One. It was okay, it felt far more like star wars, but it still suffers from its blatant fanservice elements, the claim that this was more of a war film than ...

Re: Star Wars
What, you mean I have to pay attention to those cheap films that don't even have a multi-million dollar budget? No thanks, I'd rather complain about the pretty films intended for mass audiences. :emogendo: I know what you're saying, but it's all symptomatic to the ongoing decline of the West and it...

They rubbed shoulders on the set of at least one awful film so they might be interchangeable variations of the same awfulness.

Re: Star Wars
People condemned the prequels for bad acting, bad dialogue, bad CGI, everything, and many people consider them a smear upon the franchise's reputation. But people tend to overlook all good things they brought to the table. They also don't look so bad now that the films have been saturated a bit, an...

Re: Star Wars
People thought the prequels ruined Star Wars, yet they did an excellent job keeping the franchise alive and fresh another fifteen years, well before Disney rebooted it. The thing about Star Wars is that it can reinvent itself. Star Wars wasn't reinvented, Lucas introduced a world that was 30 years ...

Re: Star Wars
Star Wars fans will never quit. They've had since 1983 to walk away. There hasn't been an above average movie in the series since. Also you can't underestimate the generational power of Star Wars. It's a series that people grow up with and then pass that joyous infection off to their kids. The good...

Re: Star Wars
I stopped caring about modern films yonks ago, it's not worth the heartache. Let Hollywood continue on a downward spiral, it's a satanic joke in its present state anyway. These planned Marvel and Star Wars films are just part and parcel of Disney's profit strat, they have them planned out because th...

Re: Official "Hello/Goodbye" Thread!
I decided to visit this place again on a nostalgic whim, so I figured I'd post in here. I'm still alive (though Harvey might have something to say about that) and starting real life on September 25. Sorry to hear about NemZ, he was a good guy. May he rest in peace. I don't intend to stick around fo...

Re: Gundam (In All Its Incarnations) Mk. II
As long as they don' use CGI, I'm all for this. Although I do wonder if this ever came to be, if they would release in an OVA format, like Unicorn or something else of that nature. A regular series sounds unlikely. The CGI from the latest OVA is actually passable, you can tell it's had a cash injec...

Best news I've heard in a while, would be great if they manage to get the ball rolling.
