    Death of a Bebop

    I watched Cowboy Bebop in the 90s as a kid in Asia in the original Japanese language albeit with subtitles. I stand firm that Anime is best left alone and shouldn't be adapted into live action, let alone by Hollywood. There are cultural and language nuances that simply do not translate well. I...

    Death of a Bebop

    Fair question. In my opinion a film critic is someone who tries to stay objective about the films he/she reviews. They look at stuff like story structure, pacing, writing, cinematography, acting, etc, etc. You know the bits that make a film good. Think Roger Ebert back in the day or someone...

    Death of a Bebop

    I've listed a whole slew of reasons why I wasn't impressed with the show and why I'm not surprised it was canceled. Stuckmann has done the same, others here have done the same. I don't think many of us here (or elsewhere) are fixated on the Faye character/actor and 'woke' culture as the primary...

    Coronavirus COVID-19 Thread

    I’ve read several articles about Omicron being more infectious than Delta but less deadly. Hopefully this holds true and Covid burns itself out with this variant. Omicron has already supplanted Delta in many countries including the US.

    Death of a Bebop

    The way it works is that the industry prefers to recast an actor who isn't working out rather than scrap a show completely. You have sets that have been built already, costumes made/purchased, camera/lighting/grip equipment rented, sound stages booked, etc. In the case of Bebop, the actress who...

    Mr NaffNaffBobFace is a respected Journalist and Gentlemen. To only deliver Positive Headlines would amount to Propaganda!

    Death of a Bebop

    Yup. Therein lies the problem there. Production hell. I agree with pretty much all you've said and place the blame solely on the feet of the Showrunner/Writers. I do think that placing the blame for the show's demise on select cast members is at best unwarranted and at worst...

    Death of a Bebop

    Yup. You're right there...it was a vocal minority and they were very vocal. Yeah that's called Brigading. They same dudes going from forum to forum to voice their discontent. Don't mistake the actions of a few as representative of the majority. Rotten Tomatoes is THE Review site that I trust...

    CIG marketing once again is clueless

    Yeah this is why I don't really post on Spectrum. Wouldn't be able to resist getting my snarky ass banned.

    Good stuff. Kate's fast becoming one of my favorite Star Citizen YouTubers. Remember Rexzilla? She's better with the added bonus of lacking the obnoxious fake enthusiasm.

    Death of a Bebop

    May I present a fairer review of Cowboy Bebop from someone who adopts an objective approach to film reviewing. He's not obnoxious, he's not flashy, and he doesn't have a drink in hand. The guy just takes the show apart meticulously and presents his review. He doesn't fixate on one issue (ie...

    I feel left out by TEST: my favorite ship is missing from profile hangar

    We're gonna run into the problem of having my ships than active players. Hop into Discord, hang out there, make friends, and crew up!

    Death of a Bebop

    Some adaptations are best well...left alone lol. I don't fault Netflix for trying even it's something nobody asked for. Anime for one is tricky because of the relevant subject matter and the possible 'lost in translation' landmines.

    New Star Citizen Ship: Drake Cutlass Steel

    Oh believe me, I don't have any money to buy anymore ships even if I wanted to lol. I think the Steel is a blatant cash grab but yeah, ain't gonna lose any sleep or get my knickers in a knot over it.

    CIG marketing once again is clueless

    Too bad there isn't one more day to this Luminalia advent calendar thingie. I was expecting the last day's gift to be a lump of coal or the Star Citizen in-game universe's equivalent of one.

    Death of a Bebop

    Easy with the gushing, he makes some ok points but it boils down to 'Remakes suck', leave our 'Heroes Alone'. That's hardly an original view and what he's talking about has been beaten to death already. Hollywood's crime has been the ongoing overload of remakes/reboots. I'll also say that the...

    New Star Citizen Ship: Drake Cutlass Steel

    Oh yeah that would be nice. So far we haven't really seen the game bring in ships that unload NPC ground forces. Would be far better than to see than the silly 'spawn closet' system we have for bunker missions right now.

    I honestly don't even care for the free skins since I don't have any of those ships. Rather they give me random stuff like in-game plush toys and guns....lots of guns.
