    Wii

    I snagged Rayman tonight and it's quite awesome! The humor, the visuals, and the mini-games make for a great game. Like Xplay said in their review its basically a demo machine for the Wii. Highly recommended if you like social games.

    Target, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, Toys r' Us, Gamestop/EB, etc. I can vouch for Targets that you should only expect between 4 to 24 systems depending the store's sale volume.

    Not that I've seen, but it does have two USB ports. Possible expansion?

    Haven't had any compatibility issues with any GC games. I'm pretty sure they all work, hence the whole backward compatibility feature.

    Got in line around 9.30 last night at my local Target which had 60 and I was lucky number 14. The Best Buy across the street had 84, Circuit City had 12, and Wal-Mart had 24. I snagged Marvel Ultimate Alliance and Zelda. I've had more fun playing Wii Sports than either of the other titles.

    The One and Only "Casino Royale" Thread

    Very, very good film. Lots of intrigue, hardcore violence, and a very realistic Bond universe, what more could you want? The reboot works and I hope they continue with the next two Daniel Craig movies the same way.

    Hot Fuzz...

    Seriously that nod to Shaun was by far the funniest thing I've seen in a while. This movie will not suck.

    Battlestar Galactica

    Dirk being one the 5 models would be sweet. But I don't think the hybrid counts at all. Otherwise when 6 led Baltar throughout the ship, she would have proven that her math skills lack much to be desired. And I seriously doubt that a Cylon "Skin Job" would have terrible math skills. I still think Baltar is a Cylon but I've only started watching this season.

    Comments which don't warrant a thread

    ECW renewed on Sci-Fi

    Awesome News! I've really enjoyed this incarnation of ECW so far. And I haven't touched an episode of RAW or Sma ckdown in over two years now.

    Transformers The Movie

    Well if anyone has seen Beast Machines, then good ol' Megs head should look familar. I didn't like his form at first but it works in the context of the story and in this "new" universe as well. Now Starscream I still can't get over how his face looks (Think Waspinator from Beast Wars).

    Transformers The Movie

    By the way an early draft of the script has been leaked... Someone's getting Fired! All in all, not too bad. Almost has a Star Wars: A New Hope feel to it.

    Transformers The Movie

    It also allows you to kill off Decepticons, showing that even outnumbered, the Heroes kick ass I just hope that they don't kill off my Starscream.

    Transformers The Movie

    Alas, no Soundwave. They didn't want to do him because they couldn't do the classic "Soundwave". His minion Frenzy will be in the movie and Soundwave is supposedly going to appear in the sequel. The sequel is supposed to introduce size or mass shifting.

    Don Vito arrested for touching little girls...

    Snakes on a Plane

    It's gory (Snakes biting people in the eye and such) and has nudity (for no real reason, which is the best kind). I wouldn't take a 12 year old to see it. Talladega maybe your better option.

    Transformers The Movie

    Yep, thats the "to scale" Bumblebee that they used on the set. The finished head will be more like the cute little rascal in my avatar.

    Oh and apparently if you goto TFW2005, they have full scans of the Movie Toys and a full Render of Movie Optimus.

    Transformers The Movie

    That doesn't bother me, since apparently much like in G1 the Autobots are losing the war. It adds an element of danger and actually allows them to give fan service (Kill the Decepticons) for when a certain Autobot dies (Speculation).

    Transformers The Movie

    First Shots of Optimus Prime And here's a Q&A from the writers of the movie: Chat Begins: Teaser Trailer Shown First Character Names: Autobots: Optimus Prime - Classic Prime type character. True hero of the Autobots. Bumblebee - Underdog type character. The scout. Smallest of the gang. (Spike mentioned) Jazz - Rock n' roll style character. Ratchet - New form. Emergency vehicle. Medical officer/Science officer. Repairs Transformers injured in battle. Ironhide - Optimus' oldest friend. Gritty Decepticons: Megatron - Survival of fittest. Less idealistic version of humanity. Starscream - 2-faced. Secretly plotting to overthrow Megatron. Doesn't neccassarily want Megatron's duties, but wants to be leader. Brawl - Pissed off Decepticon. Heavy lifter. One of the first ones not from G1. More experemental with Decepticons. More G1 styled characters to come with sequals. Bonecrusher - Closest to constructicon. Hates all other Decepticons except for Megatron. Barricade - Hunter type. Cop car, likes to get to things first. Skorponok - closest to a beast era type of character. Frenzy - Character who evolved from Soundwave. Had contradictions to the original Soundwave, so they changed him to Frenzy. Smaller form. Stealth spy. Blackout - Takes out ability to fight back. Likes to pulse blast electronics. First tier attacker. Transport, one of the biggest decepticons in the movie. Question and Answer Session: What did you know about TF's before? They were fans from the begining. Wanted to do movie right. Wanted to make sure the things they loved from G1 made it into movie, such as Prime. Both big G1 cartoon fans. What's the Transformers to human ration in terms of screen time? Script floating around is not finished script. More Transformers action than what most fans expected. Very close to 50/50 in terms of screen time. Why is Bumblebee a Camaro? Needed for design changes. Character is more important than the "cloths". Bublebee will be very close to his original character. Close relationship with Spike. No cheating in the transformation. No size shifiting. What you see is what the vehicle is. From a female - How is this movie going to open the eyes of fans who never watched Transformers? You won't need to know anything about TF's to enjoy the movie. Fans will notice alot more and will appeal to them a bit more. Movie is massive. Approaching the film how Spielberg approached Jurrasic Park. Girls will like the "hot guys". There are cool, smart women in the film. Film for everyone. Will Megatron insult at leat once? Yes...multiple times. The relationship between the two will be much like G1. Why are there so few Autobots compared to Decepticons? Wanted Autobots to be outnumbered and at a major disadvantage. Makes it have very intense action scenes. Decepticons firepower far outweighs the Autobots. You will see and feel the sense and scope ofthe Cybertronian war. How closely has Hasbro been involved in the character design process? Very closely. Sat with the design team. Looked through all Transformers catalogs and talked extensively with the design team about what is important. Trying to overcome the perception of a "toy commercial". Tried to use the history to their advantage. They talk about monitoring the boards to see reaction. Who would win in a street fight Optimus or Megatron? You will find out. Why no Shockwave? Too many characters, tried to choose important characters who could focus o nthe story. Door open for possible future appearance. Laser blasts or bullets and missles? In earth modes, they have earth style weapons. But Cybertronian technology (pulse blasts) come into play while in robot form. Bumblee as a Camaro asked again. Explained again at greater length. Video Cuts out...Technical difficulties. Fans will know first via TF movie.com. How do you feel about Bay directing? Great. They felt Bay was the right guy for the job. Was their first choice. When they pitched it to him, his eyes lit up. He wanted to really know about the story and characters. Bay trusted Orci and Kurtzman to keep the perspective of the fans. They feel Bay is keeping things great. Bay knows vehicles like no other director. Can you tell us about any other voices? Not yet. They called it a Work in progress right now. That's all for now. They will be involved at Transformersmovie.com Message Board. Contest coming soon: Submit a line that Optimus Prime MUST say for the film. Winning entry will be recited by Cullen (Prime) for the movie.
