Honestly, the Republic Commando novels tended to stink, so I'd save the money for a better book.

Like Death Troopers.  That one was great.

Remember kids, don't feed the trolls.  If you ignore them, they will get bored and go away.

Entertainment / Celebrating 30 years of the Empire Strikes Back!

Star Wars: Demolition

Do you happen to know what year it would've been released?

Thirty years ago to this day, Empire Strikes Back was released in theatres, and it became one of the most beloved of the Star Wars films.  From the frozen wastelands of Hoth to the slimy mudholes of Dagobah, to the high-flying Cloud City, we journeyed with the Rebel Alliance as the Empire tightened their grip, forcing the ragged band to eventually flee the galaxy.  Friends were lost, trusts were betrayed, new allies gained, new enemies made, and new secrets revealed. 

I loved the Empire Strikes Back.  From the battle of Hoth, to the chase through the asteroid belt, to the skirmish in Cloud City, to Luke's training on Dagobah, and I reluctantly admit, to when Boba Fett was actually a cool and mysterious talking piece of background.  When I was a kid, the AT-ATs trudging through the snow were astounding and the wampa scared the [parasitic bomb] outta me.  It's hard to believe that it's been thirty years already.

So, what are your fond memories of ESB?  Have any plans to celebrate its 30th anniversary?  In between packing, I'm gonna try and squeeze in time to pop in the DVD and watch me some stop-motion goodness.  The movement on the AT-ATs are still gorgeous.  Seriously, no CG will ever compare.  Ever.

I have that comic.  And now I'm tempted to make a demotivator out of it.

Due to moving and getting a new internet connection set up, my time here for a bit might be sporadic at best.  But, hey, I shall return once a connection's set up (or I can leech off of a neighbour's unsecured connection).

I know that because I didn't have one of those fancy Dreamcast memory cards with the screen and thus couldn't see the cards in Sonic Shuffle, that I ended up telling Sonic off in very colourful ways.

Personally, I prefer Dan Green's Mewtwo to Phillip Bartlett's Mewtwo.  Better acting, in my opinion.

I really like that third one.  Though, the second one is cute.  Is he holding the spoon from the comic?

Is it my asperger-autism or did I got just a strong hit on my head while I was asleep?
I don't [tornado fang]ing know.  X(


It's called life.  Get used to it.  And as Flame said, no more of this "autismlol" excuse bullshit.  I have banned others in the past for that and if given the right reason, I will happily add you to the list yet again.

If the doll is resin, acrylics will adhere.  However, if the doll is plastic, then acrylics will not adhere as well.  I've tried paint touch-ups on various plastics with acrylics, they flake off after a while unless you apply a spray sealant, which may then give the surface a tacky feel.  Model paints are made to adhere to plastic and last I checked, were a bit cheaper than acrylics.  Around here, the average cost of a single tube of acrylics is about $4, whereas, if I recall, one could get a set of model paints in a variety of colours for about $8.

Any arts and crafts store.  AC Moore, Michael's, and Hooby Lobby would have it.  Also, the model car section in the toy aisle at Wal-mart has Testors paint.
