Recently finished Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell. An excellent experimentalist novel seen through the eyes of six individuals, going forwards and backwards in time. A tad gimmicky, but Mitchell's beautiful pros make this a wonderful read, especially for anyone who loves a book with a hint of cynical ...

As a Rider noob myself, I have found Double actually to be a very friendly series to start with. And every tells me that Blade is amazing. Just be careful. It only takes a little Kamen Rider until you develop a sudden urge to try something Super Sentai. Boukenger has quickly become a guilty pleasure...

We'll know when there is finally a DVD announcement.

I'd say it's the ability to get a good dosage of teen melodrama that is tempered by its giant robot aspect. Also, the series that the balls to kill off major characters senselessly and gruesomely. It may be a pretty artificial series. But it's shock factor makes up for it when it comes to most people.

Nonetheless, he invited Darth Vader

Though quality aside, isn't it a little too early for a reboot? I mean Batman Begins really needed that ten year gap between it and Batman and Robin. But Spiderman 3 seems a little too recent in memory to redo the franchise. Of course they could also take advantage of this and give Spiderman a giant...

Well it was a great anime. Granted it wasn't the most original or anything. But as far as teen robot melodramas go, it was probably one of the best. I have high hopes for this one.

So is Jane supposed to die, be critically injured, or should I just have my character retrieve her?

Somehow, the idea of a Code Geass musical is one I can get behind with no trouble, whatsoever. If you asked me why, though, I'd draw a complete blank. Probably because Code Geass (Minus the Knightmare combat) seems like something that would be shown on a stage. What with the fancy costumes and the ...

Cluster 20 "Well this sucks" Max said to himself. With his camera out, he opened his hatch to compensate, where in he flung his saber towards the incoming Pawn, followed by the remaining shots in his magazine. The Pawn went down, but not before disjointing one of the Raptor's joints. "...

Gauron, however, was busy wrestling

After Insufferable Eight, I almost don't want to give this a try. But then again, the first season was way too good for me not to be hooked.

"Oh Right," Max said to himself as he turned around to engage the the Pawns. He had two in his scopes with a third one approaching slowly. In a matter of seconds, he turned around attempted a somersault, and as he crashed on his metallic ass, managed to shoot off the arm of one of the enem...

Haven't gotten to it yet, but plan on it this week. What I've heard about it is so far unilaterally positive. And if The Girl Who Lept Through Time was any indicator, that I have total confidence that it will be amazing. I'll post my impressions once I have a chance to sit down and watch.

Out of curiosity, I went and saw the first episode of Double, which was certainly more awesome than any Sentai episode I've seen.

Is this series characteristic of most Rider series?

You know, I tend to have lukewarm feelings before something comes out (00 I remained on the fence till ep 1) but here, I think I'm really hyped. The snippets they're showing us just keep getting better. If the story and execution hold up, I think I'll be in heaven.

This so far sounds closer to the original pilot's laser weapon in terms of function. However, setting lasers to stun is still good for now.
