Talkback: DICE versus DICE (04/09/05)

[bigddan11]

Today we find out the fate of The Body of Elder's and of DICE Station F at the new lovely time of 6 AM. Will anyone actually tune in to see how this three parter ends? If so, you can now comment on the newest D.I.C.E. episode.

[Aquadementia]

Either I forgot to adjust for daylight saving time or DICE became a show about a dog with super powers.

I dread looking at what I recorded this week instead of Bob Clampett.
Oh well, I tried, just not vary hard.

Got Taped wRong!

[bigddan11]

Oh, and it's just a bit outside and an hour off for Strike 1.

[The Dark Gundam]

Geez, did anyone watch this at all? I slept in so I didn't bother with it. I just thought atleast someone would be crazy enough to watch it.

[bigddan11]

Yeah dark Gunam, I watched it, because where I live it comes on at 7 AM, and I go to work at 7:30 AM, so I just watched it before going to work. I'm at work right now, otherwise I'd give a detailed recap for anyone interested. It was alot like the last 2 episodes.

[li_mangaman]

I recorded it on my ATI, but that's pretty unreliable at times. :crying:

[Ultra8]

Thank God for VCRs! Since I stayed up to watch Gundam Seed the best I could manage this morning was 7am.

I guess I could do the re-cap.
F-99 arrives at the F Station to find it under attack by the forces of dices:A-E. Sam upgrades all the dinobreakers with a device that will allow them to move through space like Capt. Spike's Hover-incus(hat guy), however he hasn't had the time to add boosters or stabilizer rockets. Basicly their going to be fired from the turtle ship like pinballs and use the force of the inertia to reach F station, provided they can stay to a clear path and not get blasted away.

Meanwhile the Body of Elders in their hijacked Dice-0 opens a worm hole to reach Heron. It's a pretty big gate considering the size of the HQ. One of the surviving Capt.(the mustache guy) comes to just as the base disapears into the gate.
Back at the station, Chow has managed to clear a path to launch Jet and the others(guy's not too bad a pilot). After being launched they immediatly begin to take fire by the other ships, and Marco gets blasted off course but manages to take out one of the ships by drilling through it. Spike arrives to take them on and in regular thick-headed main hero fashion Jet decides to attack, completely forgeting that he's ground combat and not aeirial/space combat. Being batted aside and the others knocked off course, Jet luckly winds up landing on the station and uses a mini wormhole launcher to open wormholes allover the place sucking in all the other fortresses. (I know it's loop hole-ish, but deus ex machina)
The Elders arrive out of the hole a good distance from Heron's Gate. It seems opening a wormhole too close to another is a very bad idea, but they don't worry they've waited this long so they can wait a couple of minutes.
Back at F-station, the other captains are shocked by the news of the Elders betrayall and call Dice-0, one of the F-captains calls saying that Dice-0 has left, followed by a rather pissed Spike. They ask him about Heron's Gate since it's in his sector, and he remembers he saw a strange wormhole 2 weeks ago.
They get the coordinates from him and plan for an offensive, but there's just one problem. Jet sent scattered all availible units across the galaxy, so it's up to F-99.
The Elders are getting closer but they see that the hole is much too small for Dice-0, so they'll have to take a fortress to get to it. However in transent the F-99 ship arrives via wormhole and because they were so close to the gate, causes a space distortion resulting in both ships getting stuck together. While Jet and the others board the ship to free the hostages Puffy, Sam, Chow and Marsha deploy counter-balance deflectors which will seal off the gate temporarally. Mainly like putting a giant cork in it, cept that cork is made of pure plasma that will blow up anything that comes in contact with it. Jet and the others arrive at the bridge to free the chairman but too late to stop the Body of Elders who have taken a shuttle and are heading for the gate regardless that it has been sealed off. Jet and co. look on in horror as the Elders shuttle explodes upon contact with the gate.
Dice still shakey from recent events has decided to not to tell the general public about this and to put up patrols to guard to gate while they try to rebuild and repair their forces. Jet happy about their victory is upset to find his brother has once again left, this time not telling any one were he's going.
In space Phantom Knight and that old alien guy who trades the pellets fly off to who know's where.

This is my first time writing a re-cap, but I think I did at least a mediocore job.:p

Over-all a very interesting episode. Aside from the one scene I didn't find any other faults. Now all they have to do is show the episodes they skipped and introduce who that other Dice captain was and I'll be happy.:D

A++ a pretty good season finale
I was hopping they'd show the F-99 Gun-ship but I guess that's for next season.

[Meson]

That was a good episode. My only fault is that it returns to "norma" at the end.

[lostrune]

1. Lame. So at the end, all the Elders just turned stupid or gave up? :rolleyes2

2. Jet: "So, what was the point?!" Yes, Jet, so what was the point........ of the series? :shrug:

3. Zack leaving again = that's stupid. And Jet's whining voice really grates. :sad:

[Ultra Mike]

2. Jet: "So, what was the point?!" Yes, Jet, so what was the point........ of the series? :shrug:
That's what I thought too. I thought that would of been a good last line to end things on. Sadly, they didn't give us that though.


3. Zack leaving again = that's stupid. And Jet's whining voice really grates. :sad:
Did they even give a reason on WHY he left? I don't remember hearing one really.

This episode was a pretty eh end to a fairly sucky show. Once again Jet is really the only one to do anything (besides put up that solar shield around the warp gate or whatever) and the plot is sort of nonsensical. I mean, what is so bad about going to Heron in the first place anyway? Did anyone ever both to explain that? Eh, this may be the last I watch of D.I.C.E. I taped the episode before going to bed so I wouldn't have to wake up that early but I don't know if it's worth even doing that again.

Best Moments: Uh... I guess Jet asking what was the point. That's it.

GRADE .25 Stars Out of 5.

[Tak Mazé]

What? I've never heard of this show EVER X_x

[Zach Williams]

What? I've never heard of this show EVER X_x
Then why bother posting in the talkback? Anyway, once again, I miss an episode. But, I missed the last two, so I wouldv'e been lost anyway. From what I've heard, not a good for a season finale.:shrug:

Then why bother posting in the talkback?Cuz I am sexually attracted to new things and couldn't control myself ¬_¬
