I would like Snoop Dog and 2-chains to produce some songs for the new Bionicle.

Being a bigger Marvel fan than a Bionicle fan these days, I can say without a doubt that section of the comic book industry isn't hurting, it's growing. Like Wally said, a big a part of it is due to Movies' success, which brings in more fans trying to understand the characters. [and hipsters cough cough]

Though, DC is declining in sales lol.

Just bring back Cryoshell and this reboot is set!

People will complain that they're too edgy, though.

hmmmm, the topic title is misleading and a little gross, but that's not my subject to deal with. :0

 

(also the number of people who jump to oppose trans gali but not the statement that she's a man is kinda iffy too. but again, i'm not really staff...)

 

 

Haha, this discussion is so appropriate, because,

 

 

Gali is friendly and peaceful. But when the situation calls for it, she can be as fierce as a raging ocean. She finds injustice intolerable and always goes out of her way to help the ones who need it. Gali’s mellow ways have made her the most liked among the heroes. She is generous, a good listener and friend. Only one little thing: she just can’t seem to tell a joke right!

 

isn't she basically the stereotypical Tumblr user?

 

and that's supposed to mean...?

It's means she has basically the same qualities as a Tumblr user these days. 

My mom is taking me out tomorrow to go look for them. I loved the new ad!

Lucky!

I love the new cgi commercial for Bionicle! PEW PEW LAHZORS aside that is. I am glad we will have some cg animations like we had in gen1R. 

R.I.P. that Skull Spider that was shot 50+ times by Kopaka.

Is it me or - out of the Protectors found - has it been only Water and Earth countrywide? Seems weird that exclusively those two have shown up in multiple areas.

That's what I've been wondering.

 

Xonar, just in bionicle discussion? Ok.

 

Blast cage, indeed I am! For almost a year wanna take a guess at who I am?

 

Judging by your avatar, I'd say Beastwarsfan. Now going by my avatar, signature, and general mannerisms, can you figure out how I am? 

 

We all know that Bionicle G2 isn't getting any comics...so I wonder, does that mean they couldn't find a publisher? Or they just don't care to do 'em? Or perhaps it has something to do with DC? I wonder what the reason for the lack of comics is...

 

I guess not enough people liked 'em when they were doing HF.

 

I wouldn't mind if Gali still had that male voice even later on down the story, but would be possible to 'autotune' it to seem more feminine? It would cancled-out the need for more narrators.

I am not sure which invalidates the proposal more.  The fact that you're actually suggesting autotuning the voices to be more feminine or the fact that the color you're using is so bright I had to highlight the text to read it.

 

I will concede that this might actually work if we do Bionicle: The Musical and get Yeezy to be the producer and have T-Pain do ALL the vocals.

 

ADDENDUM: If we were to Bionicle:The Musical they would have to also model Gali's mask to have the Hahli handlebar mustache.

 

It was just a suggestion, no need to be on the defensive. Maybe it was 'stupid' to say autotuned. I'll look for a different word later.

Oh, yeah, gonna keep the color.

You guys are over-thinking a simple narration.

Yep... this happens around here a lot.

 

BZPower sure changed a lot from a couple years ago since I've been here, lol. Idk if that's good or bad.

Would buying some of the old (might as well wait for the new) Bionicle sets be out of the question for your friend? That's a good way to start someone out in the fandom if she doesn't like reading comics.

 

 

Hey Borox, do me a favor and never change your sig. Every time I come onto this topic I stop and stare at it for a few seconds because of its beautiful glory. Too epic for words...

Don't worry, I won't.  

 

It's epicness can cast a trance on anyone.

 

 

I hope you don't mind if I shamelessly steal it and slap it onto my blog

(I've given you credit)

 

Sure. (I'll message you the link since I had to change it, if you'd like.)

Now now, let's not start a war here. Let's just all be glad that we can watch Tahu lavaboard just like he did in his glory days

I wholeheartedly agree! I do hate seeing so many fights here.

 

It makes me pretty depressed, actually.

 

Why are we all going nuts over this? Lego was too cheap to hire a voice actress for Gali, and just had the same dude voice everyone. Case closed.

What makes people think cheapness had anything to do with? LEGO got SEVERAL voice actors, male AND female, for the Hero Factory FM podcast, and it probably didn't cost them a dime since most of the voice actors were Advance employees who were already working for LEGO.

 

The fact that Advance could have done the same thing here, and didn't, indicates that money probably had nothing to do with it, and that their actual creative intent was to have one narrator do all the voices like in Thomas the Tank Engine.

 

It annoys me to no end when people throw around words like "cheap" and "lazy" to describe what could easily just be creative decisions. Like when people say a set design is "lazy" because they don't like how it looks, ignoring the possibility that the set designer and focus groups did like how it looks and chose it because it was the best solution in their eyes. You can't assume that everything you dislike is due to a lack of money, lack of effort, or lack of caring. No amount of money, effort, or care can guarantee that a work is liked by everybody.

 

But it shouldn't be this huge problem everyone's making it out to be, though. Gali is voiced by a dude now? Cool, so what? It's not going to ruin her character or anything. And who says this is going to be her permanent voice? Lego could very well change Gali back into her classic feminine version again later on down the line.

 

I really should make a G1 Toa Nuva Vs G2 Toa thread.

 

I honestly believe based on what we know so far, G2 Tahu has a pretty good chance of beating his older incarnation.

Nope

 

Please....I beg you...

Could he be in slowmotion, though?

Explain Makuta's powers in general, lol.

Which really sucks. Every time I see someone saying that they bought the sets on Walmart yesterday, I kick myself for not saving any money on my Debt Card lol.

Hello, I just saw someone who had a GIF as their signature, and thought it would be really cool if I could do the same thing. I haven't been here in a year or so, so I'm not too knowledgeable about these sort of things, haha.  

You guys are over-thinking a simple narration.

It's entirely possible we'll get the Mask of Creation in a set that's not Ekimu, you know.

They should have put some dialogue to prevent any wrongful lawsuits.
