Mario 64's final Bowser fight is such bullcrap. It's not particularly hard but the random teleporting makes me think that they were running out of creative steam at that point. Maybe cartridge space too.

Yeah, way too much gold. I was wrong about the claws; the silver actually helps break up all the gold but the head desperately needs some color to stand out. Might as well hit the shoulder cannons while I'm at it.

Probably. The last thing I remember before getting that ad a few days ago was the announcement that it would exist.

Kinda lukewarm. It’s doing okay in the seventies on RT but as long as you score more than half, they consider it fresh. IMDB shows a middling score in the 5’s. Either way, it’s doing worse than the previous few Pixar films and really needed any edge it could get.

Probably. Just needs a different chest and head, maybe blockier thighs. Nightbeat is generally depicted as fairly slim anyway.

Making a profit at $200M would have been hard enough, let alone with it not doing well with critics, getting banned from several countries and apparently getting its butt kicked by JW and Top Gun. And that 200 Million is just the numbers they publicly released. Might actually be even higher in...

Why did they sculpt the car front to resemble a 50's car in the first place?

I looked up Jurassic World and Top Gun. Holy jive. How the hell did this cost more to make than a film with hugging dinosaurs as main characters or Tom Cruise trying to get himself killed in the coolest way possible?

i think time constraints. Takara around the same time period demanded an MP Megatron in 2 weeks

Whoa there buddy, you’re making more sense than the people who decided to throw $200M at this thing.

It’s like the uncanny Mr. incredible memes but they don’t realize we’re laughing at them and not with them. i also always imagined Buzz as being bald because of how tight to his head the purple spacesuit was

What the hell, that was pretty much the only concrete piece of lore Toy Story established. and what, hugging space wasn’t enough? Now we need that nonsense thrown in?

From what we know, it was probably a rush job to downsize it, combined with CAD software being not as advanced back then complicating matters. Possibly at Voyager price point, some of the shitty joints were intended to be pinned hinges or ratchets and were budgeted out at deluxe

Got an ad for Lightyear on YT. Haven’t given thought about Pixar since Toy Story 3 so didn’t know anything about this new movie aside from that it existed. WTF is this Walmart Armageddon crap.

Even beyond the original design for the walking tank, there’s a lot of nonsense decisions going on with the thing, like the hook on his shoulder that is folded up and hidden in the main tank body even in the initial walking tank design, weirdass hands or painting his clear orange rolling wheels...

It's a decent design but the mold itself has glaring flaws on a structural level.

It’s like they used the paintdropper tool on a random patch of shading and ran with it.

Found a store that sells legitimate honey gouramis. Last ones I bought turned out to be thick lipped gouramis and they ended up going Highlander on each other and the remaining one jumped out of the aquarium last week. Real honeys are a lot more timid and less territorial so we'll see how that goes.

It’s actually closer to blue than purple, similar to the specialist sets but bare plastic vs the specialisat's complete paint coverage. It's a really pretty shade that I’d like be the basis for an MP Galvy, but you know Takara’s gonna make him hugging lavender again. Damn, those specialist sets...

Not gonna lie, Angela Anaconda’s parody was somehow less annoying than the actual dub. I remember our school library once showed the first few episodes off a VHS tape and everyone there was like WTF is this jive. For context, we had the Japanese-made English language version as our reference...
