I'm more interested in how fans will respond when it comes out.

That's probably the sad truth. Perhaps it would have been better for it to fade into obscurity and then released in its entirety only recently like Orguss, except without the ADV/ImaginAsian DVD problems. My God.

That sucks, especially for Southern Cross these days.

With Macross having been part of the Super Dimension trilogy, have there been any shout outs to Orguss and Southern Cross in in the franchise besides the original series?

Just watched the trailer... sweet! Don't see how people can be so up in arms, and VERY nitpicky too, about the movie.

It's okay, better than some official material so far.

Agreed, it is HG's franchise and if they want to keep it going they should be more creative with its future. You can't rely only on nostalgia if you haven't made anything new for the last 25 years. There has to be somebody in there who can make a new, decent mecha, ship, etc., especially with their connections with the U.S. comic book and animation industry. That is, unless they don't have them anymore and don't want to spend money to be original.

Live action Voltron news ...and I'll form the lawsuits!

It'll be painful to see how the Zentradi are going to be treated in the film(s). They might get the shaft to make room for other aliens. Peace and race aren't strong points in the franchise.

Of all the people that have been hired for this movie so far, how many of them actually care about the material? It's hard to tell if it's genuine or if they are being paid to care about it. In fact, how much do you think they've spent just hiring these guys into the project?

I guess this is the first part of the movie or something.

It looks like everyone is playing the blame game on the Robotech and Palladium forums. IP stuff, book size limitations, lack of communication, etc. Look out for supplements a la D&D books in the foreseeable future.

Sourcebook my butt, all of this sounds like a poorly designed marketing scam... again.

/facepalm

Never played the Robotech/Macross RPG or any role-playing style game before, has the game ever worked before? I'm a noob about these kind of things, but how do you play either series in that style?

Episode 1, the San Francisco cable car rotating at the station. Having been to the Powell & Market turnaround station a lot it looked so much like the real thing, except less crowded. I even tried to imitate the scene on video but it didn't turn out as well as in the show.

And it was her greatest Christmas ever.

Sorry, my bad.

Don't forget Manos: The Hands of Fate.

Despite that little tidbit, they STILL decided to put Janice in the Shadow Chronicles? Even if what's counted as canon anymore is a mess, wtf?

Janice? Are you talking about Janice from Robotech?

Reminds me when I saw the Universal Studios attraction. At least that didn't suck. Wish I could go back.

I was leaning towards more militant authority over the fleets by the NUNG, but that Galaxy Anonymous view is more frightening.

Isamu vs. Guld, it had a lot of emotion behind all of it and was executed very well. It really seemed like they really wanted to kill each other for a time. Hikaru vs. Britai fight was also pretty cool. It should at least be his crowning moment of awesome for the show, since he led the fleet most of the time.
