Sidenote:

Now if we could fix issues with text editor for Giant Bomb with Firefox, my eyes strain as I type this post, black text on dark grey terrible

What do you mean? I'm on Firefox, and the text input area is white with black text. Is that not how it is on your end? Maybe because I'm using the light theme?

The white theme is for bad people, Truth!

But it does sound like something is messing up your browser, kmg. The text in the input area should be white like the rest of the text is with the black theme, you should message Dave about that! Oh wait... : (

Speaking of TTGL, Trigger's new anime just got unveiled for realsies as Kill La Kill. I was a bit worried who was going to write it, but it's nice to see Imaishi reunited with the TTGL writer but this time with a focus on female hand-to-hand combat (Yet swords are present in the key visual? Hell, I don't know) . Some other good news is that some animators from Little Witch Academia will be working on the project, and from the sounds of it they're going with a structure sort of similar to TTGL's where the first half is more a straight up battle show while the second half is more of a character drama. Some choice quotes from interviews I've read:

"During the show (TTGL). Six years ago, Imaishi ripped up the finished script for Episode 1 while screaming "The drill in my heart won't spin with shit like this!" This time, it ended up with "I can't wear sailor uniforms with this kind of story!" while ripping up 4 episodes' worth of script.

I: EHH~? Does that mean I have to wear a sailor uniform if I OK'd the script?"

"Yes, it's like the Yoko vs. Adiane fight (from the TTGL film) for the whole thing."

"it's a work that'd express both the spirit of Inferno Cop and the imagination behind Little Witch Academia." (what the hell does this even mean? I can't even...)

Go go, Trigger.

@animasta: Screw good faith, I want my awesome Ender's Game movie.

you aren't going to get it because it's so hard to make into a good movie anyway.

this just looks like sub star trek but with little kids (and harrison ford)

They might as well have remade The Last Starfighter from the looks of it.

Are you kidding me? This is the dumbest thing to do where I come from, where we are all sane people.

So, no I haven't.

@owack6: I don't, really. I have zero faith in the director considering his past work, and this trailer doesn't instill any sort of faith in me either. I guess their last chance is positive word-of-mouth for me.

It would not surprise me if this whole movie is giant action setpieces, tense music and people staring blankly at each other or into space.

I liked just about every part of Ender's Game a lot except for the lackluster ending and sequels.

This trailer doesn't evoke any of the good stuff about that book at all. Screw you, Hollywood.

Cautious.

I'm usually late to the party and I wait for a series to be over before I start. Yesterday, I started Magi and after two-thirds of it, I am really diggin' it. I don't know how it ends but I expect it's a "go read the manga now" conclusion. I'm not sure I like it enough to sink any time into reading, but the show is been a fun ride so far. Between this and Ixion Saga DT, these fantasy/action comedies have provided a lot of entertainment for me this year.

The kind of a bummer thing is that they pull off some stunts in the last couple of episodes that arguably makes one of the characters way worse compared to the manga. But hey, you need an anime original climax if this is all you get to make, I understand that. Except for the part where they immediatly announced season 2 after the first one ended.

I'm a manga reader though, so I had expectations when going in and at least you're free of that. The manga is still awesome too, so I still have that. Everyone sort of wins!

Cause Star Wars games were awesome before this.

Agree. These are three great studios, lets give them the benefit of the doubt.

This.

I know it's popular to hate on EA but as a Star Wars fan, I'm willing to see what they can do with the license. Bioware, Visceral, and DICE are all solid studios. It's not like LucasArts games had a great track record in recent years. Although, I do hope Star Wars 1313 gets resurrected in some form. That did look promising.

Agree (good to see reasonable people are here).

I like the idea of 1313... it's be fun I'm sure as a linear game more or less but I'd love it if it was an open world crime title as well.

Jumping in with the agree-a-train.

These are good studios who have the potential to do cool shit with the Star Wars license. Not saying they will, but they most certainly have the potential. It's EA itself I don't care for, but we'll see how this goes... especially with whomever their new CEO is.

The president is Peter Moore AKA that guy that had the Halo 2 release date tattooed on his arm.

Which just proves that Peter is a badass who is willing to go to lengths most men don't even dare!
