Well, according to the USA Today article, he might even steal some of Bumblebee's thunder as a source of comic relief - the TFs were a bit clumsy (an understatement seeing how they thoroughly trashed the Witwickys' garden) in the first movie...but a geriatric TF that also transforms into a SR71?

For a minor change of topics... Is it just me or did the Ptolemy emit a different kind of GN particles when it took off for space in ep50? Usually it'd leave (if any) green GNP in its wake, but this time they were singularly blue - without a hint of green. I know that the GNP sometimes border on blu...

What happened to Al and soma, I mean they just go backpacking with a bunch of people? Well, from the look of it, they're going on a pilgrimage at some Santiago de Compostella-like place, for some soul-searching and to gain some peace of mind. Quite a scrumptious situation, though - Allelujah going ...

I think that possibility was already mentioned , Outlaw - and it's probably the main explanation as to why a completely new ending was announced for the tetralogy. It'll be a complete deviation from the original path. Other than that, I'm surprised we didn't get to see the new girl...or maybe I miss...

Al and Marie walks away from battlefield, to find peace of their own I pretty much thought they were going on a pilgrimage. With the long line of hikers walking towards some monument/church, the entire setting resembles the real-life travel to Santiago de Compostella or whatever other area of pilgr...

So Seraphim's cockpit's does a 180 turn........... By the way,does Arios's cockpit does something similar?(Tilts 90 degree vertically perhaps). Actually, as supplied by toysdream in the 00 contribution thread, it's not the cockpit that rotates, it's the pilot seat , which travels from the Seravee '...

Re: Evangelion...Anima?

Uh what? While I do understand the eye rolling that Eva gets (I, on the other hand, loved that series) I don't understand this mentality at all or why I see it so much. Eva barely has any spinoff at all. Not compared to say Gundam or Macross. I just don't get it. It has one series (with 4 eps with ...

For now...beats me.

Although I do seem to recall that in Latin, anima means 'soul', 'life' or 'spirit'.

Evangelion...Anima?

You read that right - Evangelion Anima. Now, I can already hear some of you groaning at the prospect of an umpteenth Eva spinoff and the not-so-subtle attempt to milk the series (oh, come on, like Eva is the worst offender in that respect :roll:), but this one caught my eye a couple hours ago, after...

Just saw the trailer. Whoa. I wonder if that giant, one-wheeled Decepticon doesn't actually masquerade as a bucket-wheel excavator - that is, if it actually transforms into something else or isn't made from several other individuals like the announced Constructicons. The dog-like TF is, on the other...

The federation has GN-XIII suits. What prevents the A-LAWs from recruiting/commandeering those suits? At the beginning of season 2, as CB's return to the scene was confirmed, that curly-haired A-LAWS commander openly rejoiced at the development, citing that, that way, their (A-LAWS') value went up....

Well isn't the cockpits in FMP sort of like the ones in escaflowne, where when you move your arms the mech moves its arms It does, although it's only a semi -master-slave system (hence the name 'arm slave') - which means that the pilot only has to perform small movements and the onboard computers a...

I don't why it's so surprising. In RL there are already examples of very old weapons still in use - take for example the Colt .45ACP pistol. It's a design by John Browning that was introduced in 1911 , making it nearly a hundred years old, yet we're still using it and its countless descendants. Heck...

Now that Soma is having her doubts, do you think the A-Laws have somekind of failsafe measure to force her to stay in organisation?

In some ways, it'd be nice if Eva went to a new series, though it'd almost certainly have to be an AU of some sort. If you look quite closely at the opening sequence (with the red sea, the white 'chalk' outline on the ground), as well as Kaworu's final words, there are actually reasons to think tha...
