Title: Cool pictures inside!
Post by: Shrike on October 17, 2001, 02:37:00 am: Alright people, have some kick *** pics to show us? Stick 'em in here. If they're large you should probably hyperlink them. Here's a couple to start you guys off.
www.gundam.com (//"http://www.gundam.com") under fanart/08th Gundam Team

The badass tank is a Mark 24 Bolo, and those walkers are Malach walkers (they're the raptor thingies about to get squished)

Seriously, not bad for that genre... although I rate Gundam just below all the ST spinoffs.

Post by: NeoHunter on October 18, 2001, 02:43:00 am: Well, I've watched Gundam Wing series so far. I find it interesting. Space station colonists against Earth. But in the end, its the fighting that matters more to me. And the BEAMS!!!

Post by: Nico on October 18, 2001, 05:18:00 am: I prefer patlabor, it's much more realistic. But I admit haven't seen enough of Gundam to make a fair judgement.

Post by: wEvil on October 18, 2001, 11:04:00 am: http://www.raph.com/ ("http://www.raph.com/") is a source for movie professionals who (mostly) churn out some of the most amazing stuff ever.

Id recommend looking at
Neil Blevins, Tobias Richter and Willi Hammes among others.

Where exactly do you get the idea that this is a cheap Matrix ripoff? The plots don't have anything to do with each other. Sure, the special effects are in the same genre, but wouldn't that make all space movies cheap ripoffs of Star Wars?

The fact that the main character is exactly like "The One" in the Matrix...
Thats where...

Post by: Sandwich on October 18, 2001, 07:02:00 pm: Matrix 2 is coming out along with all the other sequels - Christmas (I think) 2002. Also coming out are Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones (barf barf), and LOTR 2: The Two Towers.

Go to the the link I posted above (www.gundam.com) then head to fanpics. That specific picture is from the 08th MS Team section.

Thats where...

the only thing similar about the two characters is the name "the one." jet li's character goes to alternate universes killing alternate versions of himself to make himself stronger. Another version of himself has to stop him.

i dont see the similarity

well, the first pic is cool, but the second... looks like the first turok (and it's not a compliment, believe me... )
