lol...yeah surprisingly this Pink's isn't that bad! Normally I'd expect the 'mall version' of an iconic eatery to be terrible...but not so with this one.

As a side note- Camacho's is a pretty good restaurant at the CityWalk.

See ya there!

I think all things considered it would HAVE to be considered the best. There are plenty of other great Samurai films...but Seven Samurai has so many perfect scenes and has inspired so many films in the genre it deserves the title. It's the most well balanced of any of the Samurai films I've seen... ...

Well you beat me to it (we've been busy with Wondercon AND Wizard World Anaheim looming...) BUT yes Stan will be at Things From Another World 1000 Universal Studios Blvd, Universal City, 91608 from 3-5pm on May 1st, Free Comic Book Day! I'd recommend the metro (there's a station at the bottom of the...

AS Supes was okay. The art did nothing for me. Thor is good, so is Fables. But Usagi crushes both those title with ease. Usagi FTW! 8) You don't like Frank Quitely's art? I think his emotions and expressions on characters faces is masterful. Usagi is against some STIFF competition. I hope it wins, ...

Not that I post very often (though I do lurk :lol: ) I'll be working the show...so I'll be there the whole time. It's my first Wondercon. How does it stack up against other cons?

Yeah...Ran is pretty dark. I didn't mean the tone so much as the plot. You could certainly adapt a lot of it without venturing into really dark territory. Though you are probably right on both counts - I think Usagi's time period would be a bit late to have those size battles....though I would LOVE ...

I would love to see an out and out retelling of Seven Samurai in Usagi.

Though if I had my pick I'd rather see Ran or something within that vein. We haven't really seen anything in that sort of scale except for the flashbacks when Usagi was a retainer.

As a side note Kirby used boards that were twice the size of standard pages- Bryan Hitch uses them currently on FF. I saw some of them (the Hitch ones) at SDCC, I don't know how he fills them- they are just massive :shock:

That's a tough question....I voted for Noriyuki. Only because most of the people on that list suffer quite a bit. I mean who REALLY wants to wander around and constantly be attacked by Ninjas or bandits? :P It's great for dramatic purposes but it would be a tough life to be almost anyone on that lis...

Yeah that is pretty good. I think another good one is "Ibuki" by Kodo. Both songs give a perfect sense of traveling...or of a journey of some sort. Good stuff....

Interesting points. Especially regarding the difference in what characters think is happening and what is actually occurring.

Though I don't believe Ben was seeing any connection to Stan's view and his characters' viewpoint.

Hey! Thanks...I really like them both (yours and mine). Such similar ideas but they look so different! I agree...the chemistry between Gen & Usagi is one of my favorite parts of the entire series. I have not had it framed yet. My Comic Con purchases left me pretty broke until later this month. ...
