I'm about 40 mins in and I hate each and every one of you with the burning passion of a thousand suns.

EDIT: That was an awesome episode. It was cool hearing all of the stories of what went on at Comic Con. I'm definitely planning to go next year.

Also, I like that all the guys knew immediately who Mika Tan was and Blade Dancer and Angie were completely lost. haha

Keith, I'll be severely disappointed if Gangnam Style isn't in the next podcast somewhere..............LOL @ Angie & Blade being clueless about Mika Tan

I just got to the part where you guys talk about the actor who played the Commander in the Accel movie. From what I remember, and I could be wrong so if someone knows for sure please correct me, it was said that the actor committed suicide. Again, It's something I read after it happened but I think that's how he died.

 

[Aoi Kurenai]

I'm not sure what the final findings were, but he was found hanging in his apart already dead, so suicide looks likely. There's an article about it here if anyone wants to read about it.

I literally cannot watch Ultraman Mebius now without feeling uber uncomfortable.

 

[Mou...Mou...TAUROS!]

great episode.

I feel the complete opposite about the movies.

I disliked Accel and really enjoyed Eternal.

Truth be told, only 2 things ruined Accel for me: Akiko and the thief girl. Both are morons and I feel they set back women a hundred years. Akiko was an irrational, selfish, imbecile that cannot put things in perspective and is just plain despicable. Skull would be rolling in his grave at what a monster his daughter is in this movie. The thief girl was just a helpless sack of uselessness that was there to fall for the main guy and be rescued by him. I I dont tend to notice these kinds of things when it comes to portrayal of women, but these dingbats just made me sick. For all the tired and cliched, bad-Heisei feel the Eternal movie had, its women actually stood for themselves and fought to varying degrees of success. They werent beyond being rescued but at least they put up a fight. Everything else about the Accel movie though, I really really liked. It's just hard for me to rewatch it knowing Id have to see those annoying dumbasses-in-distress again. Had these 2 scumbags not have been in it, Id watch the movie much more. But I hate them to an extent that I cannot overlook them in the movie the way I can with lesser annoyances.

And after such a horrible and sickening experience with Accel, I really ended up enjoying the Eternal one. Ive rewatched it several times and acknowledge all its problems. Nobody asked for it, the harmonica was OTT (but u know what? Red Requiem did it too), the heel-turn was kinda far out there, and it wouldve been nice to know more about the other NEVER guys. It felt like a good anti-hero movie with a badass nakama (too bad it didnt stick in A-Z). I love good guys as much as the next guy, but sometimes I do like seeing the spotlight on some baddies too.

I agree that it does feel like a Heisei movie, but to me its definitely leagues better than most Heisei movies. When compared to absolute **** like GSL, Paradise Lost, and Missing Ace, this is a cinematic and storytelling masterpiece.

Despite differing view, I really had a great time listening to this episode, as per usual. Thanks very much and keep on rocking!

Akiko was credited as ''Akiko Terui'' in the opening of Accel, so she did change her name. Also Keith, don't watch the Gokaiger Jetman episode until after you've finished Jetman!
