Seems like it was about 10 or so to get lift off with my sisters Barbie.
Yea only did that once because I got in trouble and had to buy her another one.
I tortured the little GI Joe action figures, not the big ones. It was funny watching their arms drip off.

Cartoons use to be soo cool back in the day. Transformers, thundercats, Voltron, He-Man etc. I guess us older fellows are lucky we got older when we did to spare us from the crap they have now for cartoons. Glad i have cable with the Boom channel, can still watch Tom and Jerry, the Smurfs, Flintstones, Jetsons and Scooby-doo. And for the Transformers movie, I'm gonna see it, with or with out the kids and I think my wife wants to see it too.

Your theater must be a historic theater. I definatly can't come close to compete with good theatrical cinema audio at home. My equipment is better but my room is lacking severely. I need atleast another $50K to hire an acustical engineer to design it for me and buy the materials, to build a bigger room to compete with theater sound. 15x30x12 inside demision room with 16" thick walls, floors and cielings, with sound panels and blankets to reduce resonanace and echo as well as distribute each sound from each source clearely to any location in the room with out losing volume, or frequencies and yet still being able to detect the diretcion of source with out echos or dead spots.
I'd have to go to the theater to watch and hear 3333 movies before it would pay to build such a room. Although the cool factor of having a true home theater is awesome and is already in the plans when we build our next house, hopefully I can pull it off.

27 here....Transformers were my favorite toys growing up. I literally cried when Optimus died in the movie, I think I was like 8.

Anyways, the new movie looks awesome and I'll be dragging my woman to see it with me this week

I saw my friend JP cry twice that year...
  1. Once when Optimus Prime died.
  2. The second time when Kirk destroyed the USS Enterprise on Star Trek III: The Search for Spock

Ironically, I was 18, and JP was 28...

Im going to check out the movie when it comes out on Tuesday. I watched the TV show back when I was a kid (Im 26 years old, so I was really young when the original TV show was on) and Ive watched Transformers: Energon a few times. I personally like it, but Im a fan of anime, so the animation I think is really well done. Id agree that the best part of anime is the way they draw the women though. LOL
From the previews Ive seen the movie looks awsome and hopefully I wont be disappointed.

A couple years older than you, but I still shed a tear for Optimus when I think way back.. I still have the original Optimus among others in a box in the basement.
