Ruthie's Profile

Interesting article, Tengu, thanks for posting it. The fanboys can be a pretty powerful group, but only if the producers et al give them the time of day. For the Lord of the Rings trilogy, the vast majority of the fanboy criticisms were ignored. For the Transformers their input was heavily heeded. I wonder how this will translate regarding the Gatchaman movie considering that our beloved show has such a strong female fan base. :thinking:

[quote][i]Originally posted by SJ_SwanJun[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by Ruthie[/i] I'm with the rest of you who perceive the lack of Jun in these pics as a bad omen. [b]Who wants to bet that they turn her into a skank-biscuit?[/b] It would be great eye candy for the guys but a horrible shot to the character and a major disappointment to female fans.[/quote] Bolding is mine .. I swear that I am totally stealing that line!! I love it!! Skank-biscuit ... oh good lord ... I love it!! SJ[/quote] Heyyyyyy! Hey! Hey! Hey! No stealing! Oh, alright, you convinced me. Have fun with it. :wink3: SJ[quote] I have a nasty suspicion that the innocence and ACTUAL WOMANLY FIGURE (Ii.e. hips!!) that Jun had will be replaced by the unbelievably unachievable body that seems to run rampant throughout the whole Comic world. SJ[/quote] I wish you were wrong, but I know that you're right. Unfortunately, this is the price Imagi will expect us to pay in order to see Gatch on the big screen in CGI. SJ[quote] To my Condor tho ... I got home and enlarged somewhat. Now I'm worried. Very worried. He looks to have a almost chimpanzee facial structure. You know, the long space between nose and mouth with a small chin ... I'm somewhat concerned by that. Now tell me. Is it just my inadequate monitor that is giving that illusion, or is he truly being given a yukky look? SJ[/quote] Yikes! That had better be a really, really, really rough draft.

I'm claiming Foxtwin as a Condor! Sorry all you Juns, that's just the way it is. BTW - Welcome aboard, Foxtwin! :wave3:

:rofl: As non-PC as this will sound (read), I know several people born in the 80s and 90s and they're pansies. And not because their young. Part of it is because their parents and teachers allowed them to be so emotionally coddled by that stupid self-esteem movement which made it a bad thing to tell a child that 2 + 2 didn't equal 5. As a result, these young folks don't seem to have the basic skills to deal with run-of-the-mill challenges and every day obstacles. Protecting our kids should mean equipping them with the skills to handle the many cruelties of life, not teaching them to believe that such cruelties don't exist. It's narcissism run amok. Sorry, my post sounds really serious. Let's return to a lighter fare. How 'bout them Baby Boomers!:tongue2:
