Hey Rozovian. Pretending to be a judge and "translating" your criticism isn't funny or clever. It's being a dick. Stop being a dick.

Alas, poor Duke. I knew him, Horatio! A fellow of infinite...well, an infinite fellow.

What the hell is this? You're trying to trick people into listening to your WIP? Don't abuse the boards like this. Do it again and you're banned.

It's not going to give it any less attention either. It's still highlighted on the front page.

No sir, you do not. A microphone will suffice.

Need to start a Grammar Shame thread.

Usually whenever a new episode comes out we watch it that day or the day after. TV-Nihon tries to get an episode out on Friday, so it's usually Friday night or Saturday. Add either me or Ashamee on Skype and we can contact you when a group-watch will happen. Anyway, CS-toys has Shinkenger merch available for import, DIRECT FROM THE JAPANS. I'm considering getting a Rekka Daizantou, but it's kind of expensive.

REKKA DAIZANTOU!!!~ KAEN NO MAI~ Sinewav I'm glad you liked it. Make sure you watch more. It gets much, much better. Episode 11 was freaking epic: a three-way every-man-for-himself sword fight with ShinkenRed pulling a dual-wield sword style. This is getting out of control. D:

Anybody go? I picked up Blackest Night #0, Atomic Robo, and CyberForce/Hunter-Killer.

Oh man I watched it too. Freakin' awesome. Let's hold off on discussion until everyone watches.

Already a thread. Merged.

This is pretty rockin' stuff. RIGHT ON!!! (b¯^¯)>

It's not "go to the store and pick out any comic book they have for free" day. There is a specific selection of specially produced titles from publishers like DC, Marvel, Dark Horse, Image, Top Cow, Red 5, etc. I don't know off-hand if any of the big manga publishers are participating (Tokyopop, Viz, Del Rey) but FCBD is generally an American comics event.

Saturday, May 2, 2009 is Free Comic Book Day. http://freecomicbookday.com/ Head out to your Local Comic Shop and pick up some of the promotional comics that are coming out. I'm aiming to get Atomic Robo and Blackest Night #0.

Not zord! Origami, bro! Origami!

MAKOOOooooooooooooo I like Kotoha more but Mako is pretty jawesome.

Considering how bloodied and bruised they get in the show, they don't offer much protection. But as for the visors, it's important to have them tinted because of all the explosions. Look, the point is the design, not the practicality. Don't try to apply real world logic here. Sentai is meant to be a spectacle.

I'm sure if djpretzel wants to include these specifically OCR inspired characters as mascots, that's his call.

Don't give me that 'certain point of view' crap. Obi-Wan Kenobi is a son of a bitch.

Aw, thanks man. Awesome awesome mix.

What's to realize? The numbers game isn't what the prophecy is about.

Canon. Specifically C-Canon. And maybe T-Canon. I've read the Darth Bane novels (Path of Destruction and Rule of Two) which heavily feature the philosophies of the Sith and their beliefs about power and controlling the Force, both during and after the New Sith Wars. Incidentally, those books are written by Drew Karpyshyn, the lead writer for the first KotOR video game, as well as Mass Effect. If you like KotOR, give those books a shot. They're quite accessible in that the time period they take place in is only covered in one other story, the Jedi vs. Sith comic miniseries (also worth reading). It's a very "fresh" era, and you don't really have to have followed any other Expanded Universe stuff to get into them. Vaapad, Mace Windu's fighting style, is discussed at length in Shatterpoint, a Clone Wars novel that focuses on Mace (and is actually a Star Wars version of Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness), and a Star Wars one-shot comic that takes place during the Clone Wars about Mace Windu challenging Sora Bulq, one of his former masters and lightsaber instructor who'd fallen to the Dark Side. T-Canon example of a non-Sith Dark Jedi: Asajj Ventress, the dual-lightsaber wielding apprentice of Count Dooku (Darth Tyranus). In the original Clone Wars animated series, Dooku specificially tells Asajj that she is not a Sith, despite being apprenticed to a Sith Lord, and he refuses to train her as a Sith.
