    What is DC Comics doing wrong?

    Yeah, but you have to admit the "flaming" powers are an unintentional joke/slur depending on how you look at it...! ******* As for me, I don't collect monthlies anymore. I've had it with the editors and writers at both DC and Marvel. There's only so much junk you can take when the price of...

    What is DC Comics doing wrong?

    He's the original Green Lantern, period. I met his creator on 3 occasions before he died and believe me, he never intended for Alan to end up the way he is now. (I can imagine his son isn't crazy about the changes, either...) I accept that the 52 Alan Scott is another version of the character...

    The Shuttlecraft Galileo

    Lyndie, You're not a lady and you don't know me... I'm a straight-shooter. You don't like that I'm opinionated, well then @#$ you. I could talk you off a hell of a lot more than you have me but I'm going to be the adult and just get to the point -- You kept the damn thing for outdoors 20+...

    The Shuttlecraft Galileo

    Good luck! Search4, You've got a lot of work ahead of you restoring this prop... The weather in Ohio hasn't been kind to it.... and frankly I think the last owner was both loopy AND greedy. Far more is going to be spent restoring this prop than its actual scrap value...

    Battlestar Galactica Finished pics

    Wow...! Aside from the ST:TMP Enterprise, this is one of my all-time favorite movie miniatures. The original Galactica design by McQuarrie is far superior to that reimagined piece of junk... Nice detail and lighting on it. It's a classic design that has persisted and is still relevant...

    Raise Titanic Movie Model

    There's no point in saving it now... It's too far gone and not economically worth restoring. You might as well spend the money on a new replica! I don't think that anyone besides Malta studio personnel knows what's happened to the model for sure... There was a post earlier this year on...

    Titanic 3D. That's right I said it lol.

    You've obviously never heard about the Italian animated Titanic movies... Hours of your life that you will NEVER get back...! I don't think there's anything animated from the US or Japan that's as crappy as those films aside from maybe "Dirty Duck." P.S. -- They do have these films on...

    Life Sized Enterprise in Vegas that almost was...

    What??? Like Vegas ISN'T cheesy and tacky already??!!??? One more freakish, out-of-place attraction can't add that much more of an eyesore to a place that already has a space needle, Egyptian pyramid, pirate galleon, and Eiffel Tower replica downtown! OTOH, seeing the thing demolished within...

    The Enterprise Restoration Project

    That's so ironically simple that it just might work! :facepalm :behave Seriously --- my commendation for original thinking and best plan of the day --- regardless of whether you meant it to be taken that way or not! :$

    Is Blender OK for turning 3D models into 2D blueprints ?

    I've got the Blender for Dummies book myself and a book or two written by developers of the program. Expect a steep learning curve for the interface. This is not all like a video editing program or Photoshop that's for sure! However, its capabilities are fantastic and won't sink you $2,000 or...

    The Amazing Spider-Man (reboot) movie discussion

    I'd bet ten-to-one that IF this film does well, they might actually bring Gwen Stacy back from the dead in the mainstream Spider-Man comic... The MJ subplot has gotten really old and there's always been a question of who the true love of his life is. A number of the alternate stories have been...

    Sir Alec Guinness vintage Star Wars interview

    "...It was a time of elegance and grace. A civilized era. Before the Dark times, before the Lucasfilm Empire! "Before the Nerds irritated my humble self. "I became a hermit because of them, not because Yoda sent me into exile!"

    Man of Steel (Pre-release)

    I really don't care for the stories I'm hearing of a darker Superman film... We don't need that! Superman's supposed to be the inspirational character not someone that the public cowers from. I suppose they'll also have Superman kill someone in the film. Why not? Batman's done it in...

    USS CYGNUS---has anyone ever built it?

    Whatever you guys decide to make your replicas out of, I hope you take into consideration what happened to the original shooting miniature! I swear --- I think the toughest shooting miniature I've ever heard of was the 8-foot Enterprise from Star Trek The Motion Picture! It survived multiple...
