I prefer Chrono Cross. I also acknowledge that CT is the better game.
 
Alien 3 is better than Prometheus. In fact it's generally a perfectly fine movie.

It's a lot like Chrono Cross is to Chrono Trigger though. Maybe a bit stronger of a backlash than that.

Even for you man god that is too much. Even ignoring the bizarre opening twist of killing everyone but Ripley like she got the bad ending at the end of Aliens Alien 3 is a mess. Yes some of the later cuts help elevate it but the overall story is a mess of retcons and bizarre inconsistent tone that makes me frustrated everytime I watch Alien 3. I'll give it credit over the rest of the endlesstrash.jpg that like prometheus and alien covenant it's a well made film, but it's a film where executive meddling really hurt what the director was going for.

Oh and of the endless trash alien vs predator requiem is the best since it's so bad and schlocky that it comes full circle to be amazing.

...

Also chrono cross has an amazing ost you won't see me getting upset over someone preferring to trigger's.

Now what's the next step in your master plan?
They should reboot AvP with the original premise of being in the future with Space Marines getting caught between the Preds and their Alien prey during a hunt.

I have no problem with the AvP movies. They are just dumb fun.

It's not like I said Alien 3 was great or anything. I didn't claim it was better than Alien or Aliens either! Just that it's better than anything made after, which is 100% true!

Holy fuck that latest Berserk anime episode was amazingly bad. Like I'm shocked at how bad it was to the point I think they're just actively trolling people. The apostle transformations are literally just a fade in of the apostle form over the human one with no major special effects except blurring shit or any kind of well crafted art design or anything. Like I made shitty flash animations that looked better than this in high school.

Look at this shti!

I actually find AVP:Requiem entertaining. It's flawed as fuck, but it's fun.

The idea of aliens and predators in modern day world and a predator-xenomorph were great. The problem was that all the film making elements were that of a cheap shitty summer horror/action film.

I would kill for an avp film done right. Imagine with the cgi tech we have today the cool action shit you could have with a predator and a small group of marines fighting through a horde of xenomorphs.
 
Thinking about it, Lupin was probably going to be the big Momocon announcement, but then the Japanese company jumped the gun and announced it ahead of time.

Most likely. I bet it was similar to Parasyte being revealed early, so they just had to make the best of it & say "here's the promo that confirms it!"

It could work as long as the right talent is behind it.

You said it was perfectly fine and better then prometheus, I didn't even particularly like prometheus and it's an overall better film then alien 3. The only things alien 3 has over prometheus/covenant are sigourey weaver and practical effects, but the latter two have fassbender and actually tried do so something ambitious unlike alien 3's cheap "lol kill off the cast for cheap tension between films". I also don't have to tell people to watch a 45 minute longer cut of a mediocre film to have elements of the plot make sense and feel developed.

You set your expectations at 0 and they still somehow find a way to disappoint you.

The chances of Fairy Tail actually coming to the block are low enough that it's kind of silly to worry about it unless it actually happens. The show's simply too old and low quality, and the manga's ending in a few months.

On the other hand, Dragonball is Dragonball, HxH is a dub premier and pulls in reliable ratings, and Shippuden's basically tradition and reliable enough.

yes pls

HxH holding on tight to that slot lol
would be kind of funny if HxH somehow managed to keep its 1:30 slot until the end of its run, just to throw everybody off

Something something Pokémon X/Y, XYZ, Sun and Moon, something something, toyetic weekly kids show with nearly a thousand episodes, something something, looks better than everything that's not a Theatrical release (and even better than some of those) something something.

I'd honestly rather watch the Inferno Cop version of Berserk.

still would be down for the new Pokemon anime to come to Toonami too

(also woo my avatar choice won)

Its super crazy how good the animation is in Pokemon X/y and Sun and moon

The part that always gets me is that it looked PRETTY bland near the end of Black and White and that XY also happened to coincide with them also considerably upping the quality of the writing. Then Sun and Moon comes along, upends the formula entirely, changes the art style...and it's an even better written and animated show!

You can talk about Tenchi Muyo GXP until you are blue in the face but Pilot Candidate Goddess nonsense is still the worst thing ever aired on ASA. Tenchi at least had a brand (to ruin) this was a cancelled ugly show with a generic as hell plot.

The only two anime I can think of that used CGI well off the top of my head were Gurren Lagann and Yamato 2199, but that's because the Mugann were supposed to look weird and Yamato used them for high budget space battles.

(There's one scene in 2199 where it's kind of jank, though.)

I've actually liked a lot of the CGI anime released lately. Starting with Knights of Sidonia. Perfectly good looking show in my opinion and the CGI helps give it an other worldly feel.

...I do not wish to think about Pilot Candidate ever again.
