  1. The "because analog" explaination is about the worst incidence of "we think our audience are morons" moment in the entire script. That's not a hand wave; that's a hand slap.
  2. It's not following TDNR, but the essence of the quote is at the core of the story. It's certainly set up as being in some way a versus movie.
  3. Um, that's the Macross opening redone for a Japanese game. It has nothing to do with Robotech.
  4. The fans are the saddest part of the entire panel. It's almost embarrassing watching them ask LAM questions to Yune, and I actually felt bad for them.
  5. It's not an "either, or." They aren't the only people on the planet who can make a Superman or Batman movie. The Dark Knight makes the trilogy--it's why we talk about it.
  6. That is refreshing, and I may go see this. Watch, I'll end up liking it better than everything else so far this summer, and the movie probably won't get a ton of attention.
  7. Why do people say this? Why do we expect less during the summer? We give them a pass to make substandard movies (and they make a lot of them).
  8. Because... Hey look, it's the Goodyear Blimp! And they all lived happily ever after. The end.
  9. Once again, you are correct (Though, Heaven's Gate is generally considered the death blow to "New Hollywood.")
  10. My movie collection reaches back some 80 years, so I definitely do not have an era bias. There are plenty of films made every year that I enjoy. It just so happens almost none of them come out during the summer months.My perception that many of these movies are mediocre to bad is because they are.
  11. What people forget: he was considered a "serious" actor up until that movie. He never was again.He role wasnt large, and any decent "straight man" could handle it.
