Omicron Squad Leader

So, it seems the first wave is comprised of 6 small sets: the 'defenders,' possibly Matoran or Matoran equivalent 4 medium sized sets: Gali, Lewa, Pohatu, and the Lord of Skull Spiders and 3 large sets: Tahu, Kopaka and Onua Perhaps the summer wave (presuming this is winter 2015 rather than summer 2015) will consist of 4 medium sized bad guys, 2 large bad guys and a large Takanuva set

Obviously; I was trying to improve your examples based on the general consensus. Still, I hope you're not one of those foolish people who believe that good/bad writing can be objective.

The Simpsons would've been a far better example than Family Guy, considering the dire state that show is in nowadays. Or, alternatively, The Big Bang Theory, as that has always been utter trash.

Is the episode 25 minutes long or 50 minutes long? If the former, that's ever so slightly disappointing (presuming another one won't be released later on); we've gone from four episodes in 2010, to three in 2011, to two in 2012, to one in 2013. It sounded like John Schneider to me, but I, like you, have no confirmation.

After receiving the sets yesterday, I can say that I am impressed. Rocka, Breez and Bulk, while bland overall, just seem to work, the villains are visually pleasing and are all unique, and Furno XL is a vast improvement on Stormer. Obviously; I was reassuring him, due to the phrasing of his post and his constant focus on the [now exorbitantly annoying] Bionicle vs. Hero Factory debate, that it isn't something that needs to be forever debated in his head.

Why is it compulsory to like one over the other? I like them both equally.

I expect, like Savage Planet and Breakout, it was two episodes broadcast as one hour long special. I mean, Breakout had a mini cliffhanger as well.

Do they say the name of the villain? Is it a new foe? An upgraded Black Phantom? Von Nebula?

Evo and Aquagon are pretty meh, but Stormer and Surge are looking good, Jet Rocka is certainly interesting, and Dragon Bolt is fantastic. Oh, and Frost Beast is sexy as hell.

To be honest, the only set I truly like is Bruizer. The others just seem unoriginal or bland to me. Others are obviously free to enjoy them, I just... don't.

So Speeda did steal the bike after all.

You do know that the main plot of a book can be slightly altered for its adaptation for TV, right? This happens with many, many shows, so I wouldn't rule it out completely, just yet, especially as the Ninjago stuff on IMDb turned out to be correct. (The synopses didn't, I know, but they were added months after.)

It is dead. It's corpse is still decomposing, though.

Hero Factory is better now, obviously. BIONICLE when it was running = on par with Hero Factory as it is running. They are expressing that something is either well-written or badly-written. I don't see how a meaning can be any clearer than that. You can't just review, say, a movie and simply state, "It was badly-written. The end.", but the terms can be used to give your opinion on something such as a movie clearly and concisely, perhaps in a list. Simple concept, really.

It seems to me that someone has added a complete list of episodes (if true) in Season 1 because they consider all the episodes one season. Most seasons have around 13 episodes, so I guess you could.

None of you seem to have seen this yet, so here ya go. Somewhat interesting.

You know you're a near-obsessive LEGO fan when you remember the exact dates new pictures surfaced each year.

Burton's two movies were good, I rate Batman a 7/10 and Batman Returns a 8/10. Schumacher's two on the other hand... well, Batman Forever was mediocre, and Batman & Robin was utter trash. I give Forever a 4/10, and B & R a 2/10. Seriously, bat-nipples? Bat-a s s e s?

I saw The Dark Knight Rises on the day it came out. I was not disappointed. Sure, it wasn't as good as The Dark Knight, but it was definitely on par with Batman Begins. I think the three films got across their themes of fear, chaos and pain respectively very well, and that Nolan's trilogy is one of the best movie trilogies in history. I rate it 9/10.

These are the dates for the episodes: Episode 1: Asylum of the Daleks - 1 September Episode 2: Dinosaurs on a Spaceship - 8 September Episode 3: A Town Called Mercy - 15 September Episode 4: The Power of Three - 22 September Episode 5: The Angels Take Manhattan - 29 September

It will be September, actually.

That's why I said "I like to imagine" - there doesn't have to be any specific evidence backing it up, it's just what I like to think, considering Speeda's character. Still, I guess you could say that if Von's staff was stored in the same room as the prisoners, that villain vehicles could be, too. EDIT: I forgot to add that Speeda went to Kollix IV to rob passers-by using some satellite beacon, if I remember correctly.

In "Breakout: Part One" you can see him alone in his cell. I like to imagine that he stole the bike from Hero Factory's stash of them, as he left for the black hole.

I think, from what LegoNarkoman said, that Hero Factory is likely to end after summer 2013. It sounds as if Von Nebula will create his "Villain Factory"/"Anti-Hero Factory" next year and that Alpha Team will face him in a final confrontation. I would really like it if this happened, because Hero Factory would've lasted a full 3 years, from summer 2010 - summer 2013, and, as Dorek said, it would really bring the story full-circle.

Sorry, but there is no comparison between Hero Factory and Nolan's fabulous Batman trilogy. Just... no.
