Macross DYRL in 4K UHD with English Subtitles
Duke Togo replied to GGemini's topic in Movies and TV Series
It's an upscale of the old 2K transfer that has been scrubbed of all grain. And the color still isn't right. I worry they'll use AI to process the hell out of DYRL, trying to make it look "new" like Cameron has been doing with his films. -
Macross DYRL in 4K UHD with English Subtitles

Plenty of directors with more prestige and fame than Kawamori have supervised disastrous transfers. -
Macross DYRL in 4K UHD with English Subtitles
Duke Togo replied to GGemini's topic in Movies and TV Series
I was in the verge of completing an order on this and stopped myself. Concerned about the quality of the subs and how the transfer turns out. May hold off on this until people have these in hand and can speak to how the final product turned out. I'm not concerned about any first edition bonuses or whatnot. -
The Acolyte - Disney Plus Star Wars Series
Duke Togo replied to jvmacross's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
He was neither outwardly chaotic or evil, which is what made him interesting. There was no evil cackling, mustache twirling, or constant threats of violence, which makes him a lot different than your typical Star Wars villain. -
The Acolyte - Disney Plus Star Wars Series
Duke Togo replied to jvmacross's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I don't understand how anyone looked at the plotted story and scripts and not realized that Qmir is what was interesting. And they just couldn't stop themselves from tying it into the prequels-era story. They made the same mistake with Ahsoka. Baylon Skoll and his apprentice were the interesting story, not the cartoon stuff Feloni just can't move on from. -

Duke Togo replied to Pontus's topic in MW Site News & Member Feedback
Mine is pretty self-explanatory. 😜 Edit: I chose this particular picture of Duke Togo because of the purple in it, which is my favorite color. -

And we know ETs are members of the Republic per the prequels, and we've definitely seen an ET in the suburbs.

In a galaxy-spanning civilization, I have to believe suburbs exist somewhere. That's A LOT of star systems where they could exist.

Feared you'd get something aimed at younger audiences? Are you new to Star Wars? They've had productions aimed at kids since the 80s. Does everything need to revolve around what you want to see? They want to do an Amblin-style show set in the Star Wars universe, I say go for it. Give us more of something different, I say. Andor is a spy-thriller, great. Give us horror, too. Comedy. What have you.

I see what they're going for here. Hopefully this doesn't needlessly tie into the saga or Filoni-verse and can just exist as a children's' adventure set within that galaxy.

[New York City] Macross Plus screening with Shōji Kawamori Q&A
Duke Togo replied to Radioguy's topic in Movies and TV Series
The Japan Society tweeted that it was a showing of the 4K restoration of Plus. That tweet (which I originally linked above) looks to have been deleted.- 8 replies

House of the Dragon.....GoT Prequel series

It's funny, because years from now when people are either rewatching the show or working through it fresh, the season ending where it did won't even register.- 178 replies

House of the Dragon.....GoT Prequel series
Duke Togo replied to jvmacross's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
It's going to depend on the budget they're given, I'd guess. Funny how GoT all but had a blank check from HBO. But hey, different people running the company then.- 178 replies

House of the Dragon.....GoT Prequel series
Duke Togo replied to jvmacross's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Well, now I know why season 2 of HotD ended like it did: HBO cut it from 10 episodes to 8 before shooting began. Likely would have gotten what I was originally expecting had it gone 10.- 178 replies

So, it's a kids' show? Which is disappointing, but fine. If kids watch it and like it it's a win for Star Wars.

Looks like there was a partial leak on TikTok. About a half-hour's worth of footage. It's since been taken down, but obviously some stuff floating out there.- 178 replies

House of the Dragon.....GoT Prequel series
Duke Togo replied to jvmacross's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Based on the episode preview, we're clearly getting a battle. And I'm thinking had they gone 10 episodes we could have gotten the one to follow, and started the 3rd season with a big bang.- 178 replies

This was a really good episode and I'm not ready for this season to end next week. Without going into spoilers, season 3 looks to be jam-packed with major events. I can't even imagine how they're going to budget all of that.- 178 replies

And, was it just me, or were there a metric ton of f-bombs in the movie? For some reason I don't recall the first two having quite that many- 263 replies

Duke Togo replied to sh9000's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
The references and cameos were a lot of fun. The plot was a mess and kind of a drag. I enjoyed watching it, but I doubt I'll ever revisit it.- 263 replies
