Re: Random Off-Topic
Even if it wasn't all my fault, my posting in there was a pretty significant factor. I wish it would have continued and I hope someone else remakes it, it was a good and interesting thread. I hope we can return to it at some point to be honest tolvo.

Yeah, i was . I should have clarified that
For the record . I wouldn't give anyone the fault, it's was a pretty complex Topic and someone had to slip up either way .

Re: Random Off-Topic
I thought it was an interesting thread, but I don't find much interest at the topic being discussed. Frankly I thought it was being handled relatively well and seeing as you all were enjoying the thread I hope sooner or later you can all get back to discussing that subject again.
However, I was confused about what happened to the dinosaur thread.

Re: Random Off-Topic
Oh god. Ohkubo just completely destroyed Soul Eater.
If you don't know anything about this, Soul Eater is a manga which last chapter just came out. I don't want to spoil anything, BUT IT WAS HORRIBLE. Everything was rushed (We only got 1 panel for some of the characters, while other didn't get any at all). Lots of plot holes still open. Lots of important stuff that was just showed to the side and forgotten. And the big focus of the chapter seemed to be boobs (boobs!).
Soul Eater has been getting worse for a while now. But most of us at least expected a decent ending to it. Instead of this pile of smuchk.

I wish the forum would hurry up.
It's on 499636 posts. I really wanna congratulate it getting to 500,000
In fairness tolvo, scifi can be prone to going terrible because you can just invent easy scifi solutions that you couldn't in other genres.

Party where!?
It's been a year since I've seen any of the star wars movies, I feel like I'm committing a crime every time I wake up because of this.

Re: Random Off-Topic
Star Wars is Sci-Fi Adventure/Fantasy.
The issue with the books are two fold.
Plaguis book, the book has to end with him dying to Palpatine, as was stated in the film. It was interesting but it seems like they didn't know how to have Palpatine properly kill such a powerful character, and just crappily did it.
Revan, well spoilers ahead.

- Dumb stuff in here:
Drew K the person who wrote for KOTOR, invented Revan, wrote the story to end with the book Revan. Revan would confront the Sith Emperor, defeat him but die in the process. That was the plan, until TOR came into the works. Bioware needed the Emperor to be a main antagonist in the game...But for KOTOR fans that don't want to read a book they needed Revan alive too. So what happens? At the end Revan who was turned once by the Emperor, returned then captured and broke free, is again captured just for the hell of it. The Jedi Exile, a female main character is just killed off by the dominating Emperor. You play as her in KOTOR 2 and she is also a very interesting character and a fan favorite. So, basically Bioware made him change his book to allow us to see Revan for five minutes in game before you kill him with THREE OTHER PLAYERS. Note, the Emperor is so powerful he can destroy an army, Revan is almost as powerful as the Emperor. And it takes just FOUR of you to beat him! His fight is roughly five minutes long, he has no dialogue, it was just schlock, utter schlock and I hate Bioware for it. Just like railroading the Chiss in game. Note, the Chiss didn't contact the galaxy for another three thousand years, so how the highly advanced and organized species somehow totally lost records of being in a galactic war with humans, Sith, Jedi, etc, then forgot it later and didn't even know what the force was, is ludicrous. Basically, Bioware took a massive dump on the Star Wars canon, and I will never buy another product from them again for it.

Re: Random Off-Topic
It's so hard to find the pre-remastered version these days. George Lucas took them off the market when he released the remastered versions. I tried to find the set on DVD a few years back and it was nearly impossible. I ended up just buying the remastered set instead. I still have my VHS copies of the originals. In fact it's one of the few reasons I still have a VCR.
And then George Lucas sold the rights to Disney. Just felt that was worth bringing up.

This is true. It was a twofold crime. Terrible revisions to the movies followed by trying to erase the existence of the good versions.
Now all we need is Spielberg to digitally alter guns into walkie talkies

Honestly I think the biggest insult was sticking Hayden Christensen into the scene at the end of Return of the Jedi. The Jaba's Palace and Cantina scenes are both up there for me too, obviously, but I found the end of Jedi to be such a slap in the face.

I believe it's a poke at the Han shot first controversy
And I agree Plastic. I tolerated everything else but that actually ruined the movies for me.

Re: Random Off-Topic
No Serious, this is a joke video someone made. But the fact that some people don't know if it is a real edit or not, that shows just how bad things got.
Or case in point. This is a real edit.
