  1. Omg Jake you're so obsessed with the organ lol. Anyways, I play piano... decently... and I play drums... decently... I prefer piano though.
  2. Hi, I'm Elijah but everyone calls me Eli but you can use both. I love Bionicle, my brother (Prismwind) and I used to play with them when they first came out in 2001. Unfortunately, I had a bad habit of chewing pieces and, one fateful day, I chewed up my brothers prized Vahi (he had spent months looking for one in those old mask packs). He still hasn't forgiven me hahaha jk. I am completely obsessed with the Lord of the Rings, I 'inherited' it from my brother as well. I play piano, and sometimes, when I'm over, I'll play some of my dads drums or my brothers organ. I can't do much, some basic Ringo beats, but whatevs. I am totally addicted to Bach and Mozart, though I think that Bach takes the cake. I love fugues but they are to complicated for me ;(.
  3. I like both, but my scale tilts to Bionicle 2001. 2015 isn't true Bionicle if you ask me, well then again, I have my own personal cannon for the entire Bionicle story rejecting most of what came after 2005. Bionicle 2001 had a vastly superior story line. I doubt that anyone would disagree. I mean, the sets have been out for 7 days, and the Toa already have their Golden Masks! They had them before the sets were even released! Is this it? It this all that we're getting story wise? That is terrible! Now that my rant is over, I'll talk about the sets. The sets from 2015 are cool, it's cool seeing all of these throwbacks to the originals. I like the protectors more than the Toa. They are nifty little sets and are more appealing to look at to be blunt. The Toa are too bulky, just look at them! Does Kopaka need to be as bulky as he is? Look at Onua! Tahu! They are cool as their own sets, but fail in trying to replicate the original Toa. You know what, this mini-review has gotten me thinking about 2015. I talked before as though it was very good but after putting all of the cards on the table... it's kinda disappointing. 2015 is alright, for the sets anyway- protectors especially -but I'll stick with 2001. Over all, I give it 6/10 stars. Ha, that was pretty clever.
  4. Bionicle 2015's story is a little... iffy... if you ask me.
  5. And none of them could tell a clear story because they were spread too thin, with the different forms of media even contradicting each other several times. Regardless of your opinion on the quality of the movie, to say The LEGO Movie had no story is completely factually incorrect. I'm surprised you got "2001 media was clearly superior to 2015 media" from "Still, I'm gonna have to hand that to 2015." As great as MNOG was, it was the only media in 2001 that managed to reach that level of quality in clear, consistent storytelling. 2015, meanwhile, by putting its story-telling focus into one main form, has made the story very easy to get into and understand. I'm sorry, you said 2015 twice, so I was confused as to which you were referring to. I rushed through the text, as the ending of that paragraph gave away the error.
  6. Um... do you own a 2015 set? If you did, then you would know that it certainly isn't 'rehashed hero factory.'
  7. I don't see any reason to hate the new sets anyway. It's fun seeing Lego giving throwbacks to the original sets in the new ones.
  8. Ah yes. The good 'ol days when there was no poseability, no articulation, no consistent storyline, and eyepieces that didn't detach. Honestly, could you at least give a little information supporting that claim? What are you talking about? Bionicle 2001 had the best story of any year since, in my opinion, but even if you disagree with that, how can you say that it had 'no consistent storyline'?
  9. Where should I post a topic about a set- S&T, because I would talk about the story behind it, or Discussion, because I would discuss the general set too? Your help would be very appreciated.
  10. Update: After thinking about a bit... I'll stick with 2001. The Toa are just... meh. The protectors are cool though.
  11. Bionicle 2015 and Bionicle 2001 are very similar and very different from each other in a number of different ways like the animation styles and the story. I know that it is a little early for this, what with other games coming, but another example would be the MNOG and the new Bionicle App. I was wondering what everyone else's opinions were on this topic.
