The art can't be as bad as the Comico adaptation of the original saga or the graphic novel... can it? I hate to say it, but some of that was pretty amateurish.

I think I totally missed out on the Malcontent Uprisings comics, which disappoints me. I understand that time period was a really formative time for Max and Miriya's characters, who I loved. Did you ever delve into Palladium's Robotech RPG and related sourcebooks? If not, there's a TON of useful source material in…
It's too bad "Robotech II: The Sentinels" didn't get beyond the first four or so episodes before the project was canned. Sure, Harmony Gold managed to glom what work was completed into one extended episode and give fans at least something, but it left so much hanging. The series started with the Rick/Lisa wedding…
Also, when the Marines first entered Hadley's Hope and were sweeping the rooms in twos, there was a dramatic build-up when Hudson and Dietrich (Vasquez's smartgun bro) picked up movement and it turned out to be a hamster running in its wheel.
I think it's important to remember that it was not the Governor who started things up with Rick's group. It was Merle, when he decided to capture Glenn and Maggie as potential "threats" to Woodbury, but ostensibly as a way to find out where Darryl was. Before that incident, no one was even aware they were in the…
Agreed, especially if you see the way he loved the reception he got at Comic-Con, while wearing IM's gauntlet on one hand. There are few actors who just seem to be born to play certain characters. RDJ and Tony Stark are a perfect match.
Ah, yes. Steve Alten. He of the riveting marine biology opus "MEG", about a megaladon let loose upon the world (during a scientific probe of the Marianas Trench, go figure). What a hack.
I'd definitely throw in "The Day After Tomorrow" and "2012" in there as well.
It's almost for the same reason he allows organizations like The 501st Legion to exist: he's not losing money on it and it keeps recirculating interest in Star Wars in its own way.
I think Jake Solomon and others at Firaxis have said before in interviews that the intention was to give it a B-rated sci-fi/action movie atmosphere like the original, and this dialog would seem to fit right into that.
Being a longtime cosplayer who enjoys wearing plastic body armor of various designs, I completely understand and can relate to the issues of having to compromise aesthetically pleasing design with practicality. There are many great Spartan costumers out there with terrific sets of armor but when you look at them with…
