I was recently playing Mortal Kombat - Komplete Edition last night on story mode. I get to the end and I fight Emperor Shoa Khan. This guy is over powered and kill you in a few hits. He's almost impossible to beat on a normal game setting. I beat him on the first round, but that didn't stop him from flogging me the next two rounds. I kept thinking. Am I getting worse at this? Everything I did with Raiden just wasn't working! I kept doing every combination that I could. Nothing worked. I was literally about to go ape drenn on the controller but kept telling myself to quit and take a breather. The other half of me told me to beat him and than not pick up the game for a whil…

As most of you know I'm a Daikaiju fan mostly because I grew up watching Godzilla since I could remember but I know there are other series out there that are worth the watch one that got me interested is Gamera arguably aside from Godzilla the most famous Daikaiju out there, at least that is my impression since I have never watched a Gamera film and I'm all for discovering new toku so I made this thread to discuss everything Gamera related in the same sense as I did with Godzilla, now to start of I found on my local Kmart a blue ray edition of the Gamera Trilogy for $9 but before I buy it I wanted to ask you guys if the movies are any good and what other Gamera films woul…

Greetings! I was wondering if anyone would happen to have some recommendations for some Gamera films? I am a huge Tokusatsu fan and have been trying to expand my growing taste. I would also appreciate any other Toku film recommendations.

I think we can officially say that the Fourth Age of Monsters is well and truly here. Its a good time to be a Kaiju fan.

Ok Godzilla has done a lot of things over the years. He's been a hero, a villain and an environmentalist. He's traveled all over the earth and has even been to outer space. Hes fought with giant insects, dinosaurs, mutations, moth gods, robots, cyborgs, aliens, horrors spawned from his own cells and even a being created by the imagination of a child. He's even defied the laws of physics on more then one occasion. But this July the King of the Monsters is going on a dark and twisted journey unlike anything he has ever faced before. With no warning and no sign of salvation, Godzilla is plummeted to the deepest, darkest bowels of the infernal kingdom. This Year Godzilla …

A mystery left behind by a lone researcher, monsters appearing across the globe, and a world dyed r…

Soooo as some of you know, growing up as a child Godzilla was a hero of mine. I loved him, whereas I literally had night terrors of King Kong up until I was 14. I sometimes had dreams of Godzilla protecting me from him though. This was due to the old classic Godzilla vs King Kong. Well, now they're rebooting it, with the new Godzilla flicks. Check out the article. https://www.yahoo.com/movies/godzilla-vs-kong-set-for-2020-214457108.html

Happy Godzilla Day Everyone!

The last summer of the 20th Century. That day, the human beings learn that they are not the only ruler of the planet Earth. The appearance of the giant living creatures "Kaiju's" and the ultimate existence that destroys all monsters: Godzilla. Through the battle against kaiju’s that lasted for half a century, human beings has experienced continuous defeat, and finally plans to escape from the Earth.

However, the environmental condition difference…

You know, there are times you think to yourself that you have seen everything. Then life proves your wrong, in my cause it turned out people have turned the caste of the Godzilla series into monster girls....and done so with some very nice artwork. But stilll WTAF! Godzilla - The Atomic Dinosaur Maid! Biollante - The Skitsofrantic Half-Sister Ghidorah - The Bitch Queen of Terror Mothra - The Preachy Do-Gooder (You know the kind, sweeter then pure sugar and more irritating the tropical skin disease) Battra - The Hard Ass Biker Chick With A Heart Of Gold.

Gold Key Comics was created in 1962 and has spawned a lot of cool super hero titles. While they went defunct in 1984 some of their characters are getting new comics even today thanks to Valiant, Dark Horse and now Dynamite. What makes the world of Gold Key interesting is that all their heroes exist in the same universe but at different times and places, a theme that connects them even now. Turok, Son of Stone, Dinosaur Hunter In its original run Turok was the story of a Turok a native american warrior trapped in Lost Land with along with his brother Andar. To begin with the series had an ongoing story but eventually became a story of the week series. The …

So heres another one of my pointless customary end of Sentai Reviews... TENSHIN DAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yes, next is Gosei Sentai Dairanger (Five Stars Squadron Dairanger). first off i'll say that this is kind of an old Sentai from 1993 . The Mecha was used for the Zords in the second season of MMPR and its also where they knicked the design for the White Ranger. Secondly i'll say despite its age it certainly kicks much ass! Theme Tunes - The opening is a classic - ''Tenshinda! woah woah woah woah...'', the closing not so much, but still has its own charm. Story - the Gorma tribe vs the Dai tribe, milleniums of war come to a head in Dairanger. its o…

Guild Wars 2 is the announced, but not yet released, sequel to Arena Net's Guild Wars. Unlike the original Guild Wars, Guild Wars 2 will be a MMORPG. There will be some instanced areas, but most of the game is in persistent areas where other players can just pop in. The instanced areas will be every characters "home" in their race's primary city and 5 man dungeons. Guild Wars 2 has very different game mechanics than Guild Wars 1 so Guild Wars 1 characters cannot be imported, however players of Guild Wars 1 will get some kind of cosmetic rewards. Guild Wars 2 is set 250 years after the events of Guild Wars: Eye of the North. Every 50 years an Elder Dragon has awake…

Like topic says, anybody following the new Gundam series? So far I have seen up to episode 9 and it's refresshing to see the main characters without any moral conflicts like those guys in Seed. I especially like the concept having more than 3 factions in a battle (federation vs colony vs main char), since the 3 way battle has long since been overused. I have a lot of questions which I hope will be answered inteligently, not just because they needed an answer for the sake of filling plot holes. Coolsome Mech's, can't wait for an MG release. What MS can snipe an orbiting object from earth. Now how cool is that?

Not much info yet, but I do have some vid clips. Well, one thing I did hear, actually, is that the Badan Empire might revive for the movie but I'm not really sure if that's true. From wikia....

I think this game is going to be very interesting. The people who did the Devil May Cry reboot, Ninja Theory, are making a new game called Hellblade. Looks bad ass and I'm looking forward to it. Ninja Theory has made some pretty good games. Documentary behind the game. Thoughts?

Ok so for years I've put off getting into Gundam for several reasons. Mainly this was because I found the entire franchise so... daunting. Gundam is considered to be one of the biggest names in anime, if not the biggest, it's also a colossal franchise with tones of series, timelines and spin-offs. It seemed like a pure headache to get into but I'd like to try. But there are a few things I want to know. 1) I was going to start with the original gundam and work my way from there, is that the best idea? 2) Are there any parts of the franchise that's hard to come by for us western audiences. 3) Is there a lot of manga tie in stuff I'd have to hunt down? I'…

I doubt that there are many toku fans that don't love them! I know for sure that I do love them! I look forward to them in each and every episode of any Super Sentai series! I always get pumped! This has to be my favorite so far besides Shinkenger's and Gokaiger's! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toszcBMtaeE
