Re: Ep. 084 - Neo's Counterattack!

Since Soul Bro forgot to mention this in the show notes, I'll put it here instead. Tomorrow's recording of Gundamn episode 85 is being pre-empted. Instead, we'll be recording Shinjuku Station at the Movies, with a roundup of the summer's comic book movies. So you'll have to wait a few more weeks for another Gundamn episode, but in the meantime you'll get some Shinjuku.

Sounds good to me, I was kind of wondering when that comes out anyway.

Re: Ep. 084 - Neo's Counterattack!

Since this was pretty much a mailbag episode-

I understand what you're saying about Hollywood having lots of money but it just seems to me that with technology getting as advanced as it is, it seems like it would be easier to do awesome CGI whatever your budget. I mean, just about anyone can make a cinema-like lightsaber fight now with their laptops.

As for Admiral Adama, picture this: Adama is in charge of the UN Spacy during Space War I. Do things go the same way or does it happen differently? :)

Re: Ep. 084 - Neo's Counterattack!

Great episode again, all! I keep trying to figure out new Mailbag questions for this or Chaos Theatre, but I've been drawing a bit of a blank recently. Anyway.

One thing that I don't get is: why is it pathetic for grown men to like My Little Pony and not Sailor Moon? I'm trying to wrap my head around that one. I mean, you guys talk about Transformers, a very silly show aimed at children, from the 80s. I guess the gendering of it is what bothers me, this whole thing of 'boys nostalgia is cool but girls nostalgia is sad/pathetic'. I have to admit I haven't seen the new Pony show (never really into that franchise), but if you can admit that dudes can with no problem watch magical girl shows, then what gives?

This is a complete misrepresentation and not at all what I said. I never attacked women for having girls nostalgia. I have no issue there. My issue is with "bronies" propping up the new My Little Pony as though it's the BEST THING EVAR. As much as I enjoy Transformers, it's not the BEST THING EVAR, and there are plenty of parts that are just crap. Even moreso, my issue is Pony fans (of both genders) flooding blogs and forums with pony meme pics and gifs as if they're funny and anyone cares about it outside of their group.
