- The Missile Catch has got to be the hardest a Kaiju has flexed on the military. Creative shot as well, so much more than a simple explosion.
GIF - Ironically, Sean of the Dead, a genre parody, has the only depiction of a military force competently fighting zombies.
02:09The new trailer for ‘28 YEARS LATER’ has been released. In theaters on June 20. - Halo 3's launch was something else. Gamers living in the moment before the 2008 recession.
00:00 - City Hunter has this shot, which outlines why logic must bow to style. Fantastic use of an Apache Gunship.
GIF - This is how I want to depict infantry battles against the Covenant . Present media is waaaaay too nice about the reality of fighting enemy aliens that savage. Tbh military sci-fi in general doesn't really have visual references outside something like this.
- The original Order 66, being performed without a biochip, is superior storytelling because it is cold, cruel, calculating and relatable. Orders are orders. You must understand.
- Shameless acts of self preservation and the resulting karma are easily some of Gundam's best moments.
GIF - The Walking Dead has a chilling scene that demonstrates the destructive power of a 50. Cal Machinegun.
00:00 - "Imperator Jackson, our forces will have seized the capital by noon..." "Spare the populace, destroy the monuments and preserve their museums. I'd like to perform this evening as well."
- Thunderbolt's first person sequence, is another tense demonstration of a Gundam's overwhelming technological advantage. What can you even do to survive this?
00:00 - Another fantastic example of 'blink and you miss it' worldbuilding are these heavy infantry soldiers in Venus Wars... Is this powered armor? Are they augmented? Or is this just some huge dude? Striking visual, with a lasting impression.
GIF - I wish we got to marinate in the submarine's aura for another hour.
