The original Japanese title is "Cowboy Bebop: Knocking on Heaven's Door", though the American title is the much less creative "Cowboy Bebop: The Movie."

Less creative, more descriptive.

It's actually less descriptive, because "knocking on heaven's door" is VERY descriptive of the movie. The American name just...tells you it's a movie. Which....you already know. Since it's a movie.

i remember watching that series on Vhs... In 1999 ...

I teach kids who were born after that. I feel old.

Edit: Spike makes me wish we had a single pistol set. Martial manipulation took care of the rest. (Unless you consider him Martal arts/street justice with super reflexes and a temp power pistol).

Trying to remember if COH had a hand gun model close to his

Cowboy Bebop the series gos blu-ray December 16th.

Wow, saw the all caps, underlined update on Message 1 and winced guiltily.  Yeah, I've been all around MWM today reading their boards, looking at the kickstarter I subscribed to.  But, yes, I knew this.  MWM is NOT involved in the buy out....EDIT: and, even more, I misread "2" for "12"  so now I really feel foolish.  Okay, back to work.

It would be great to be a fly on the wall or a bug on the phone during those negotiations. I would even pay in bacon ingots for that privilege.

Waiting is hell!
We're almost there!  ;D

It takes a village to raise a child. And it takes a villain to explain the value of lunch money.

 The worst part is I have this site in my homepage links, and I automatically click the latest comment on the top post to look for news. Every now and then the fake city of heroes news happens to be the top post and I go crazy for about 10s every time.

I had an idea the other night for helping to spread the word about COH. If and when it comes back.

Live streaming, I don't have a good enough comp yet. But I thought maybe a group could get together to do live streams. You know do regular content, maybe some crazy builds and the regular COH community high jinks.

Then people could actually see the game in action. :)

With that said, back to my corner until we get news. Going back and forth on which toon to hopefully make first.

Good idea... Livestreaming wasn't a huge thing when CoH was alive and kicking... I think I'd want to make a "Warshade Build/Playstyle" channel if the game were to go live again. :D

Probably a liability related decision...I expect it's not unlike why Vega become M. Bison in Street Fighter II, why scads of names got changed in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, etc.  People can nerdrage about this if they wish, but it's nice to live one's life without getting sued.  It's especially nice to not get sued by the RIAA, a group of people who have raised soullessness to an art form.

Never used livestraming for CoX, would you use Twitch or another medium?
