  1. Because the Last Stand really wrapped up things and closed off the franchise; the directors pretty clearly stated that that would be the last film in the franchise. There's not much of anywhere that they can take the series as it stands currently, unless there's some serious retcon, which might happen in the origins that they're doing now.

    Also, I got into X-Men through the movies. :/

  2. Well, the one thing we know for sure is in the movie canon, he can't remember anything prior to the operation.

    And as Starvos points out, maybe this should be taken as separate from the movie canon? Either that, or there's a secondary wave of amnesia after the operation. Or he just doesn't want to talk about it. :P

  3. Off the top of my head, four things that have made me cry:

    -Most of the later half of Saikano,

    when Chise's slowly degenerating and there's nothing Shuuji can do about it

    . Lord, that's a depressing series. Also, the second episode of the OVA.

    -

    When Seita is burying Setsuko

    in Grave of the Fireflies. That was the breaking point for me.

    -When I hear most songs by Death Cab for Cutie, off their Plans album. Bad associations with an ex.

    -At the end of Wall-E, when

    it looked like Wall-E had been completely wiped in EVE's attempt to rebuild him.

    I mean, come on! That was a sucker punch, right there.

    -The latter episodes of the first season of Victorian Romance Emma's first season,

    when Mrs. Stonwar dies and Emma decides to part from William

    , and the middle episodes of Victorian Romance Emma's second season,

    when Eleanor gets her feeling dragged through the mud by William

    .

  4. There has not been ONE FUCKING DAY since I got home a week ago that my family is not bitching at me or someone else in this family. Is it so much to ask for some peace and quiet?!

    EDIT: And I wish my little sister would just LISTEN to me, especially when I tell her not to get out of a moving car!

  5. Hah.

    If you're looking for a better holiday-themed OVA, I've heard Tokyo Marble Chocolate is actually pretty decent.

    And I disagree with you on the Dragonball: Evolution thing. Adaptations can do whatever they want, yes; however, they should at least have a basic resemblance to the original source material and at least try not to rape it too badly. If you put the source material and the movie side-by-side, you couldn't possibly tell that latter was based off the former.

  6. Shall send you a PM, then, Yoda.

    Heh. The man will only be desperate when I'm writing things, trust me.

    The only thing that I can think of is does the stuff I watch have to be legal DVD copies? Cause a good deal of what I watch is fansubbed.

    Heh...

    Heheheh...

    BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

    I mean... copyright infringement is wrong. ;)

    That's encouraging. :P
