Is that a giant blow dryer in the chest?

Or part of a Pegasus engine from a Harrier?

Book version is better.

The one from the movie looks horrible.

Gaaaaah! My daughter told me they were too skinny and a bit ugly. She was right!

The mass of white and clear plastic makes them look much less threatening. Though the clear plastic (or whatever it is), does make it easier to target the hydraulics to cripple it much more precisely. I believe Arnold Schwarzenegger totes a bigger Gatling in half his movies. And I'm not sure what the spikes (?) on the shoulder pad are for … well, if you kill me and I fall just right on top of you, those are gonna hurt! Also, I don't mind the decal, but if you're going to put markings on a piece of military gear, you really need to mark up all the maintenance points with labels and warning markers.

Wow! There was a reason she said, just wait until you see it moving in the movie … maybe it will be better.

Oh no..Singer is involved? He drove the last one into the ground already didn't he?

Man. This series needs an enormous reboot.

Heat sinks?

Looks too practical to me. More like something that a real world robotics company would build to show off their technology and less like a comic book killing machine.

Dead on. It looks like a trade show display model as opposed to a functioning piece of practical working technology.

No, he did the good ones, but wasn't responsible for X3.

He did, however, do Superman Returns instead, so there's that.

(He wrote First Class, which was pretty decent.)
