Watto's Junk Yard / Re: 'The Hobbit' movie
« on: January 18, 2011, 10:33 PM »Tolkien was a Christian author - LOTR is a Christian story.
I'll grant you the former, but you lost me on the latter. How do you figure?

I'm totally sure a poor kid whipped that costume up using material he bought with leftover lunch money.
Looks cool, though.

That is the way it is....
If you need one for the empty sheath, I know somebody making "replacements".
Ah...to Broken Arrow I will go....

Watto's Junk Yard / GI Joe Retaliation - The Movie
« on: January 8, 2011, 08:59 PM »
I just read that Stephen Sommers won't direct the G.I. Joe sequel.
The first movie was better than I expected, and I have to admit it's a bit of a guilty pleasure, but still, I'm glad to see Sommers is gone. I'd like to see the property in different hands and get the story line, characters, and especially Cobra designs back to more familiar territory.

Why the sudden(?) drop in price for Classics Vol. 7 TPB? Was there finally more printings? This one used to go for $50-$70, and now you can get it for $15 off Amazon.

I hope they make Major Bludd's car. Bad ass.

I've caught up now, and dammit, I like this show a lot more than I thought I would. Agreed on Mindbender being too young, but I guess in this day of Mark Zuckerbergs and whatnot, it's to be expected (though I still prefer the 80's Mindbender's S&M get-up). Baroness is ******* awesome. Hawk looks and sounds like a one-eyed James Carville, which I don't like too much, but he seems cool
I've always hated Duke and preferred Flint, but Flint's kind of a dick this time around. And they've made Snake Eyes a mysterious bad-ass, which is pretty much all it takes to make me happy. As long as the figures are stylized realistically, I'm in.

Anybody else watch this? I DVR'd the first two episodes and have only seen a few minutes of the first one...I actually kind of like the story line this time around; not too sure about the characterization for some of the Joes. I hate the animation style, though. But I reckon I'll keep watching it.

The Vintage Collection / Re: The Minor Upgrades You'd Actually Like To See

I think there needs to be a new ANH Tatooine Luke, or at least the one from the Resurgence of the Jedi Battle Pack needs an individual carded release.

This weekend's match-up was something that during the Mike Leach era, I anticipated. I guess the streak of beating AtM on a regular basis is over too.
I am auditing a weekend only, non-credit, mini-mester, correspondence course at TCU now. I think that is sufficient enough to be able to root for them.
Don't start rooting for TCU until next week.
