You should re-watch the series first. The Rebuild movies are still basically just a retelling of the series (with hugely different emphasis on different plot points/characters/settings), but they don't actually explain anything and they don't really have the right "feel" IMO. They work best as kind of an adjunct to…

I'm not sure about actual reviews, but then this isn't really one either. This is more just two guys talking about the movie.

What "features" do you mean? There's always been anime, cosplay and general Asian pop culture and weirdness on this site. I've been here since the beginning, as far as I know.

No, Asuka was definitely specifically tied to Unit 02. It's been literally about a decade since I watched the series but I had this discussion many times when I was younger; somebody she was related to was in Unit 02, I just don't remember who.

Give the guy a break - not everyone knows what the word "otaku" actually means.

I couldn't make it through this review, but I'm also not sure I'd really be able to get through *any* review of this film. This has always been a series that's basically impossible to explain to people, though the general analogy to LOST is about right.

Sony, you are officially off the hook with the PS3's interminable, poorly timed and mandatory system updates.

Checking the completed listings, $450-$499 still seems to be the average actually being paid for deluxe systems that are in hand. Anything above $500 just isn't going at all.

I used to buy consoles at launch and I've only regretted a few - and those were the ones that ended up being flops further down the line. I've never regretted buying a PS3 at launch despite paying $599 - I got to play a bunch of great games and watch a lot of Blu-Ray movies *years* before you could have if you waited…

I will probably wait to see what Sony and MS have up their sleeves. Though I'm rooting for Nintendo, as the last pure game company making game consoles.

Like comma usage, apostrophe usage is guided by style, not rule. There is no hard and fast rule that's universally accepted on where and how to use apostrophes, whatever you may have learned in grade school English. It's a punctuation mark that exists to make things clearer, so the only question on whether or not to…

Sounds like an idea whose time is long overdue.

Good. So now I know I'm reading People Magazine instead of a site for people interested in tech gadgets.

Read. It says these discs will be cheaper to produce than current optical discs. I'm not sure if you ever learned to think, but if current BD discs are $5 or less, then it stands to reason that the new discs would cost less.

It's a Sunday. This was probably scheduled yesterday.

Flash media is great for storage of small files.

"All movies" cannot be physically downloaded. Unless your concept of "all movies" only includes stuff made in Hollywood in the last 3 or 4 years. Pretty narrow world view there.

It's for the husband who watches TV and has his iPad nearby while the wife is on her laptop in the same room.

I just hope the update doesn't come in December, because all the Android 4.2 devices will ignore it.

Also it's a breeze to take a part; no glue or nothin'.
