    Top Gun 2 is in pre production. Mavrick will be an instructor / top brass. Val kimmer was not asked to join since he can't fit in a cockpit

    Speaking of Goldner being inducted into the hall of fame tonight, is there going to be any coverage on his speech?

    I am a big fan of brevity when full ideas can be communicated in straightforward and simple terms, but there are times where it's completely acceptable to add a few extra words to a sentence in order to complete a thought in such a way that others are able to understand what it is you are attempting to communicate.

    In other news:
    I'm looking forward to getting some form of actual information about this movie or the toyline.

    Sounds like a bit of a rhetorical question....

    Not sure if this has been posted already, but the Toy Geeks are doing a live walk around of the expo:



    No sign of any Transformers as yet, although I only just started watching and it's been running half an hour...

    EDIT: They are now going on about trying to find the Hasbro booth... Come on...

    EDIT 2: Aaaand... now they've stopped the video before even reaching the Hasbro booth... Dammit.

    I want to keep watching the video, but I have somewhere to go. If they show toys or some kind of image, someone please screenshot it!

    Stream is over for now. Sadly, the Hasbro booth is in a different floor away from the rest. That's why they were not able to locate it.

    Yeah, but that is so far out timewise right now. I'm surprised they would make any mention.

    Dude... Not cool.

    One:
    He's 58 years old. People that old are allowed to put on weight.
    Two: He's not THAT overweight.
    Three: He wasn't asked because he's recovering from a battle with throat cancer, and he can barely talk.

    Godzilla looks like he saw something that was fucking hilarious.

    Well how about then, also as a fellow cancer survivor (seven years last February)... No, I will not.

    I'm not upset on the cancer part. It's the unfair mocking of his weight part. But hey man. Make your jokes. Whatever.

    I’m not sure where you got the idea that I’m outraged. I said what I said because it’s pretty standard, on the internet, when Person A days something that upset Person B, Person A defends himself, saying “It’s only a joke”. I’m also not sure what cancer had to do with it considering you were making fun of his weight. Congrats on having a clean bill of health, though.

    The expo lasts until the 24th, so it's always possible that we'll see something over the next two days.

    That much being said, there's actually a tiny part of me that's kind of relieved that nothing big was revealed. At this point what I'm really waiting for are official reveals. I really don't want to see the trailer through a blurry cell-phone video, or see Bumblebee's new design for the first time in the background of some blurry photo. It will be a lot more rewarding to wait until Paramount's ready to release that stuff officially, whenever that may be.

    YouTube (Legacy):
    Honestly, it'd be entertaining to see this whole fandom go apeshit arguing whether a red and white pixel in a potato quality video is Starscream or not.
