[quote] The army of tornadoes tearing Los Angeles to shreads in The Day After Tomorrow. Nice! [/quote] It is, take his word for it. What Ithink is the coolest (people still say "cool", right?) thing about this scene is that it made one of the biggest didaster movie cliche's, two tornadoes merging together, seem original.
I have quit a few, but here are a few of my favorite "Holy Snot!" moments: During the intro to [I]CSA: The confederate States of America,[/I] there's a photo montage, and one is the Iwo Jima flag-raising, but with a Confederate flag instead of Old Glory. The scene in [I]Raiders of the Lost Ark,[/I] when Indy clears the jump across the pit and sees that Mexican guy impaled on a wall of spikes. (Deserved it, though. You do NOT chiken out on Indy!) The zepplin exploding
Well, yes and no. I know a few things that set some races apart from others behavior-wise, (Terrans use fighters and contact you for diplomacy more; Drengin rely on blitzkrieg tactics more often than other races, ect.) but I can't give you an in-depth analysis.
Hope yo enjoyed my first battle scene.
The small fleet of ships streaked out of hyperspace, with the [I]Barbados[/I] and another ship, EFS [I]Juno[/I] out in front, protecting the six transports that trailed close behind. They were a good distance from the planet, but still within visual range, because moving unarmed transports close to a defended enemy planet was suicidal. Evans called for the [I]Juno[/I] to be hailed. The computer beeped, and the face of a woman appeared on the view screen. She was young for a starship
Actually, nonne of them can win, because none of them exsist in the first place.
It's merely a coicidence, albeit a creepy one. P.S., if you want a laugh, check out my GalCiv conspiricy post, 'This is just creepy...'
I didn't know the Drengin were Polish. (Operation Blitzkrieg, get it?)
"They're the star trek robot people, right?" Exactamundo! This was just an inside joke.
Oops. This was supposed to be a suggestion. I don't know the first thing about modding, (need to tkae computer classes lol) I was just puttting the word out. Oh, well.
Total conversions are always good.
We are the Borg. Lower your... what? Okay, you can bump that thread and then we'll assimilate you.
That is both hilarious and wrong on so many levels...
Note: If someone already is working on this, or it isn't possible, let me know. I think some new aimations for the planets when i'm looking at them from space would be intresting, as well as add some variety to the worlds I'm uncerimoniously dumping my digital underlings on. Here are some Ideas: Hurricanes Lava (just a black patch on a certain area with cracks that slowly cycle between red, orange, and yellow) Whirlpools in oceans HUGE columms of smok
Interesting read; it's nice to see a monarchical Terran government.
*applause* That was amazing, Silver, you've set a new standard.
* It always seemed dumb that you could fit 1 billion people on a single ship, and when I hear the phrase "planetary invasion", I imagine [I]hundreds[/I] of ships dispatching troops. So there's the explanation for the smaller number.

Oh, great. Now the Altarians have a superweapon...
This should be good. BOOKMARKED!
"Nope, but I plan to. I heard the soundtrack though, and it's pretty amazing. Joe Cocker covering Come Together is a highlight." So is Bono singing [I]I am the Walrus.[/I] koo-koo-ka-choo!
Strong Bad e-mail 'original' (the number escapes me.) Bubs is my favorite character, nest to Homsar, so it was nice to see a 'toon where he was the star.
I saw this movie just yesterday, and I'm still blown away. I don't want this to turn into a plug, (if it hasn't already.) so I'll keep this post short. The gist is this: [I]Universe[/I] is a jukebox musical that uses Beatals songs to tell the story of a British immagrant who comes to the U.S. during the Vietnam War. He meets a girl named Lucy, and together they experience the social movements of the 1960's. Has anyone else seen the movie?
"Uh-oh. Someone's in trouble..." The question is, who's in [I]more[/I] trouble: The Terrans or a certain Crochan?
"But first the Coalition must implement 'The Plan,' they have for the Dominion." Why am I getting the notion that "The Plan" is total annihilation?
