    Favorite Fictional Weapon(s)

    The Gravitation Beam Emitter (that pistol-looking thing) that Killy uses in Blame! [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDA1bUkotIk] for sure. And there's Anglachel [http://lotr.wikia.com/wiki/Anglachel], solely for its history, from Beleg to Turin, in Glaurung, and then through Turin himself...

    Welp, goddamn Youtube. Does this one work?

    Battle of the Action Sequences!

    Well, this won't 1-up anyone but: Yeah, I realize I'm late to the party with this, but hey. I ended up watching practically everything of Ghost in the Shell soon after I watched the first movie in a short time frame. This scene is so damn good. I honestly couldn't believe I missed such a...

    The Ships of Star Wars

    Considering they're a galaxy spanning civilization, I'd be disappointed with anything less. They constructed a Death Star, after all. Compared to possessing the capability to effortlessly destroy an entire planet, having really big ships is fairly mundane.

    The Ships of Star Wars

    Awww yeah. I loved the Executor-class ever since I saw it in TESB. She's such an beauty [http://ukitakumuki.deviantart.com/art/Orbital-Strike-138700997]. I'm really looking forward the upcoming new movies giving us more great ships.

    Future Weapons: ?Wait a minute, this is the future. Where are all the phaser guns?? ? Simon Phoenix

    Thing is, they haven't shown they're capable of that. What you're describing actually sounds like a retcon of their abilities. I'm not saying that they definitely can't, it's that they haven't displayed such capabilities so we can't assume they can, at least in the movie canon.

    Future Weapons: ?Wait a minute, this is the future. Where are all the phaser guns?? ? Simon Phoenix

    "Basic weapon just buffed up" is quite logical. If we still use them in the next millennia, it would be because they still work. If they became ineffective, we wouldn't use them anymore. That just sounds like a typical bomb. Sometimes, you don't want to destroy an entire planet. I'm...

    Future Weapons: ?Wait a minute, this is the future. Where are all the phaser guns?? ? Simon Phoenix

    Yeah, you're right. I actually meant that in the end, they're all the same in that they're all used to kill. Yeah, "By definition, a class 4 laser can burn the skin, or cause devastating and permanent eye damage as a result of direct, diffuse or indirect beam viewing." Hell, they'll...

    Future Weapons: ?Wait a minute, this is the future. Where are all the phaser guns?? ? Simon Phoenix

    Huh, I guess I remembered wrongly then. Been some time since I last saw the movies.

    Future Weapons: ?Wait a minute, this is the future. Where are all the phaser guns?? ? Simon Phoenix

    I'm honestly surprised the ships for the The Culture series or the Lensmans series hasn't been mentioned in terms of utterly ridiculously powerful space warship capabilities. Okay, I have to admit, I haven't actually read them (might read the Lensman books soon). I only read their TV Tropes...

    Favourite Ship

    First... well, two actually. I have too many ships that I love; it's difficult to choose. But these are probably my favourite fictional ships. As for real ships it's a tossup between I-19 [http://www.combinedfleet.com/type_b1.htm] --because of its unbelievable torpedo salvo-- and the...

    An anime recommendation thread for someone who has not watched anime in 4 years.....

    There's two airing this season that really stand out for me. Arpeggio of Blue Steel and Log Horizon.

    Unskippable: Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory, Part 2

    Yes. And that's all right. I don't mind the fanservice, myself. Not sure, really. I think it's a reference to pirating in general. Warez etc

    Unskippable: Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory, Part 2

    The JP voice actor of Neptune likes it very much. Why else would she platinum all three games [https://twitter.com/AndyTaichou/status/319266220660621312/photo/1] in english? You people are insufferable. There is certainly an audience for this. All the three main games on the PS3 have been...

    Unskippable: Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory, Part 1

    No. Victory spoilers: There is an landmass in the map called "PC Continent" but nothing plot important goes on in there. Just more dungeons.
