So my kids and i went to the video store, they saw GIJoe Valor vs Venom....im watching it now. This movie hurts my brain in sooo many ways. The animation is terrible, the writing is even worse, and the voice acting is worse than fan films Ive seen. How could they have made such a terrible movie? Hav...

everyone might hate me on this, but I'm going Mal on this one. Han is the by far the better pilot, but we aren't taking their ships into account. (I think hands down the Millenium Falcon is obviously the better ship) Both Captains are accomplished smugglers, both have been tortured heroically to sav...

Ryan brings up an awesome point mentioning Firefly, which inspired this next match up. MATCH 6: Captain Mal (Serenity) VS. Han SOLO - (Millenium Falcon) http://i753.photobucket.com/albums/xx179/rqatkins/Versus/VERSUSHanSOLOCaptainMal.jpg This is only taking the Captains in a match. It does not inclu...

Alright, next match up,


Match 5:

Leader 1 - GOBOTS vs. Starscream Decepticon Transformer




I think the hardest part of this challenge was finding some decent art for Leader 1....

Also, if you're putting Data against the T-800 I'm thinking its a close match up..... Against the T-1000 I think Data loses easily.

ChromiumAgeCollector : Oh yeah, it's totally cool to propose a match up. I was just chatting with Ryan tonight and was hoping him and Chuck would shoot me a list. I was just expecting to be doing the graphics all by myself, but if you're comfortable doing it and making it look good, by all means kee...

I think the main differnce is in the ethos. Data, while physically capable to hold his own has a completely different purpose. The Terminator's entire reason for existance is to destroy it's target. Data's purpose is to provide service, and his personal ambition is to be more human. Meaning he would...

You have the Sorcerery arguement, I think that gives Mumm-ra the upper hand. I know there is a long history of Sith Magic or Sorcerery but I don't know how practices Sidious was in this. While Mumm-ra by definition is ever living, I dont know if he can be killed, the Emperor also had an essence tran...

It seems Predaking vs. Voltron was kind of split, but leaning towards Voltron's blazing sword for the win! Next VS Match Match 3: Thundercats MUMM-RA vs The Galactic Emperor/ Darth Sidious http://i753.photobucket.com/albums/xx179/rqatkins/Versus/VERSUSMummraEmperor.jpg Both Combatants run around loo...

Yeah family video is based out of Illinois, and they do really well. Free kids movies, so atleast i didnt spend money on this thing.

I know there's a group called "JoeHio" that meet up. I wonder if they are in your area.

I love VOLTRON, hands down I think he wins because of the sword and the various weapons. Launching rocket heads, flame thrower cat mouths. You know Voltron is gonna cut Predaking in half with that Blazin' Sword Hand to hand in robot mode, I think Predaking wins without weapons, Even as separate cats...

Match 2: Predaking VS. VOLTRON

Alright, I know this is Ryan and Chuck's boards, but I'm going to request a "Sticky" and we can see where this goes. Nothing too structured, but lets keep it organized and simple. I'll kick this off with a "who would win in a fight?" Lets see at least 3 responses on that pairing,...

There is no way Duke is Optimus. There isnt a good all around leader in Joe, because Gen. hawk isnt in the field as much, and Duke isnt the number 1 leader. Besides i think "Duke -Rod" sounds about right considering his lameness. :lol: Ryan, i got you now, i thought you wanted to do a char...

I could totally see these as hybrids:

Flint/Cup
Scarlett/Arcee
Duke/Hot Rod
Doc/Ratchet
Beachhead/Hound
Mainframe/ Wheeljack
Ace/Jetfire

Just off the top of my head...

was this episode when you all were talking about "Ghosting" with art in comics? I've listened to so many in a row I forget. But that's actually how I got started in comics. I was doing backgrounds for New X-Men Academy X issues 1-2, then ghost inks for Rick Ketcham on the rest of that seri...

Ryan, check out http://www.sparkpeople.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; its a great calorie and fitness tracker. totally free. My wife and I started this two years ago. She's lost 60 pounds and I lost 30 at the time. (I've gained some of that back.... :? ) Mostly it keeps you mindf...

I need to update my studio pics. i think this was from last summer and my collection has grown ridiculously since then. http://i753.photobucket.com/albums/xx179/rqatkins/DSC_0200sm.jpg http://i753.photobucket.com/albums/xx179/rqatkins/DSC_0209sm.jpg yeah now that I'm looking at these photos I really...
