ummm....isn't that already a law?....i mean, you're not allowed to buy tickets to an R rated movie or buy M rated games if you're not 18....i thought that had been around for a very long time....you can use them, because the 'assumption' is that your parents have approved of you doing so, but you just can't buy them....
-
Best one ever: http://www.animemusicvideos.org/members/members_videoinfo.php?v=68 Booya. Actually, I have lots of favorites, but as I'm at work, I can't go dig them up. ;
-
i never thought of that......... anyways, i switched to FireFox about two years ago, and i've never gone back....the main reason is the security....much better with FF....i personally don't like using tabs, so that's never been a thing for me....*shrugs*....
-
Yeah, they had a news report about that last night. Most of the people they interviewed were going to sell it online. You know, you'd think the manufacturers would realize this and make more. After all, they're losing money that way. If they'd just make more and release more systems, there wouldn't be near as many scalpers making money off it.

GRX: *runs from the mental image* Godgrave: well this I found because I read his webcomics....really want to buy his regular comic too....

http://gd-tangent.tsunami-art.com/view.aspx Click on the 15 in the month if the animation doesn't load. Yeah. Fred Perry has my nomination for godhood. Pirate ftw. *giggles madly* the original song
-
they've been around a couple years.....i love a lot of their stuff....their songs cover so much of the emotional spectrum....Black Orchid is probally my favorite of theirs, though they did play an acoustic version of Graceful Dancing at one the radio stations i used to listen to..... i wouldn't exactly call it a 'new' sound, but they are good....defiantly worth buying.....
-
Eh, as soon as the internet is back on at my house, it's back to FFXI!
-
there doesn't seem to be a focal point....maybe if you made the name stand out?....it fades into the background and is really hard to read....
-
it's like the classic B horror movies....gorey, mostly plot-less, but they don't really take themselves seriously....there's several 'jump' points, but you still laugh at it....
-
hehe! I can't use this one here, but it was a great line so I had to use it. Too bad I couldn't find a screenshot of that scene. This was the best I could do. And this one's going in the rotation: Whee!
-
Oh, come on. You KNOW you're going to go see it! *G* Anyhoo, went and saw that last night. Not a movie to see for good plot or character development, but I knew it wouldn't. Just a fun movie, though. I think it was made as an homage to the classic B horror movies. It's not one I could take seriously, but it was a darn fun action/horror flick. Sammy gets some great lines, there's lots of gruesome action (so gruesome and fake you have to laugh) and tons of action. In other words, I enjoyed it. I always watch horror flicks with an eye to the funny (yes, i'm twisted), so I had a lot of fun. It is a horrible movie plot-wise, but that's part of the fun. It is rated R for several reasons, so not a kid-friendly movie, but one you'll have to see if you like laughing at horror movies.

I think you can uninstall updates from the Add New Programs box...there's a check box to show updates and I think you can uninstall from there....

Backing information? Lets see here, shall we? Watched the entire series: 5 times. ...In Japanese: one time Watched Endless Waltz: 2 times. ...In Japanese: 3 times. Read the manga: at least 4 times. Read the offical dounjinshi: more times that I remember. Owned and operated a full Gundam Wing fansite: 7 years in October. Had this discussion with Strider: what 3 or 4 times now? *and we're always coming up with something new to throw at each other * I have plenty of backing to be discussing this anime. I don't know everything about it, no one but the creators do, but I've seen this from many angles and defeded it many times. It's not like the UC series, anyone agrees with that. No, I'm not qualified to compare it to any other Gundam series (except maybe GX). That's not what I'm trying to do. I'm always happy to clear up misconceptions or defend certian characters in this show, and belive me, I can pull backing out if you really want it. I'm not just getting this opinion from some unsavory part of my anatomy. I've actually sat down and seriously disccused this with people in r/l as well as online, so I have my own opinions formed from my own little twisted brain. You may not feel 'obligated' to give your reasons to someone that's watched as much Gundam as Strider has, but how about me? I'm curious. Why is Treize your favorite character? Can you give me good, solid reasons? Was it his outfit, his voice, his attitude, what? If you want a good conversation about anything, you need details!
-
*bows to Strider* I know you and I don't agree on a lot, but at least we respect each other, which is good. Makes conversations fun. *EG* And I must admit, you've made me curious about UC Gundam. If I could find it again, I may give it another shot. Then at least I can compare. *G* It's not just the current generation of Gundam fans that think like that, though. A lot of younger people make up their minds basied on the eye candy and what other people think and don't really take the time to go out and figure it out themselves. But then, we did that at one point in our lives. *shrugs* *feels really old now* >< And I think a lot of Gundam discussions have been derailed by us. ; Ah well, at least we're trying to keep good discussion alive! And yes, Mythbusters ftw, but that should be another topic.
-
I'm not saying they're not more or less in-depth. What I'm saying is that there's more to GW than what looks like on the suface. I'm not trying to compaire GW to anything because I know I haven't seen it. I'm just trying to clear up some misconceptions about it.
-
I don't watch shows that are just eye candy (although, it doesn't hurt *wink*). And I do like explosions (which is one reason I watch Mythbusters *L*). I don't care if it doesn't have explosions or great mecha as long as I like the characters and feel like they're real people. GW has that, which is why I like it. If I can't get into the characters early on in a series, I just don't care what happens to them. That was my problem with the original show. I just couldn't get into the characters at all. I dunno, maybe I should go back and try again. *shrugs* And GW really is an eye candy series. I'm not denying that at all! But there's a lot more to it than that, and it always bugs me when people just dismiss it because of the eye candy. (That's not directed at you, Strider, just in general. ) I think a lot of people, espically younger people, gravitate towards the eye candy and don't really pay attention to what else goes on. There's probally lots of reasons for that, but I think that's one of the main reasons why GW is so popular here in the US. (see, I got back on topic! )

Quatre only destroyed Sandrock because he was out of power, out of ammo, and wanted to provide a diversion so Duo could get into space. Shenlong was destroyed by Wufei later on in space (when it was in the same condition). Deathscythe was destroyed in space as well. Trowa blew it up. Duo had been captured because he couldn't fight with it anymore as it was out of power of basicly everything on it was broken. Yes, Heero self-destructed, and he's the only one to do so when his Gundam was still in good working order. Tallgeese was also run until it broke by Zechs. These guys are really hard on Gundams. Another thing you gotta remember, the timeline for this story is about one year. The Gundam pilots didn't just start piloting at the beginning or shortly before. They've had years of seriously intense training on how to fight with a MS. Yeah, they kick the crap out of the Leos (which isn't really that hard) with their Gundams, but they do just as well with any other MS they use. They're all exceptional pilots, and you give an exceptional pilot and exceptional weapon to pilot, of course they're going be good. I'm not debating about other Gundam series. The only other one that I saw all of was Gundam X (which I did enjoy). I tried watching the original, but I just couldn't get into it. *shrugs* I can't compaire other series, so I can't say if I believe you're right or wrong about the MS in those. This is just what I got out of GW.
-
OK, again I find I have to post this: the GW gundams were not so over-powered as everyone seems to think. It's just that a majority of the Leos and other MS they had to fight were crap. Serious crap. Put Heero and ZERO against Gerod and GX, and you'd have a damn good fight on your hands. Every single gundam in GW got destroyed at least once, except for Heavyarms and that's only because it was hidden for a large part of the show. Besides, how can you have a hit show when the main characters are constantly being beat by the bad guys? *ahem* *gets off soap box* And yes, Relena is annoying in the anime. She's a lot more bearable in the manga. I hated her until I saw EW. Then I read the manga. She's not my favorite character by any means, but she's not as bad as the anime made her out to be.

You're forgetting one key element: Cartoon Network. GW is the first gundam series aired on Cartoon Network. Up until then, anime was mostly a subculture over here. You had your choice of crappy-dub Sailor Moon (the original is actually pretty good), Ronin Warriors (which is still one of my favorites), or Pokemon. Well, Fox did play Escaflowne, but they didn't do a good job of the dub and it didn't go over well. I don't consider Power Rangers in this catagory. >< Then CN comes along, gets ahold of GW, and pimp the living hell out of it. They put it on right after school, so a lot of kids can rush home and watch. And an instant fangirl-base was born. Personal, I love GW. The story is a lot deeper than people realize, but then, I've also read all the manga for it. That does help. (yes, Strider, pacifisim is a dream, but Relena is increadibly naieve). And yeah, you have to watch the whole thing. I didn't get it all when I first watched it. Most of what I got the first time I saw it was pretty characters and explosions. A lot of the political stuff went over my head. I've watched it several times since then, read essays and manga and discussed it a lot, and I enjoy it more now than I did. I'm not saying it's for everyone, and I'm not saying it's the best anime around, but there's a lot more to the series than it looks when you first see it.
