    Actually, they are "enhancing" Love, Live, Alive - gotta have more DD...
  2. Dynaman
    ESPECIALLY since the Lisa Hayes drawing looks better then the Lisa Hayes in Sentinels...

    I think it is, in the online trailer it has what looks like the scene where Saito is in front of the engine room getting shot to pieces...

    Accounting reasons most likely. The film did such a pathetic gross (might not have even made back it's total production and marketing costs even adding in DVD sales) that is was less financial trouble to trash the props and take them as a loss then to try and auction them off and possibly make a small profit - and then not be able to take the tax writeoff.

    I'll say it then, anyone who thought either transformers movie was enjoyable is lacking in taste. Same goes for the second Batman movie, I spent the whole thing thinking "how can someone who hates to plan things get THAT many explosives into the hospital?, or the Boat, or the warehouse?". The idea the movie was considered oscar worthy made me sick. As for Batman begins, I thought it was nothing special. (So I guess my opinion of Nolan isn't all that high)

    Same here - till I saw it has the same director as Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger. I'll probably still pass on it though.

    Casting her was not a Jinx, it was an omen.

    That I'm pretty confidant they do not have. They would be lucky to get a veto option on the script (which does not mean the movie does not get made, it usually just means that small changes have to be made to please them - the Harry Potter example being a good case of this). For WB to sign ANY contract that states that HG could pull the license - HG is just not big enough to bother with those kinds of shenanigans.

    Harrison Ford and the latest Indiana Jones movie is the most recent example, although that was an actor and the two producers (and why they finally agreed on the film that was made I'll never know...). The idea applies to property owners as well though.

    It is quite possible that HG has a veto option on any proposed script, they are large enough that they might, small enough that they probably do not. Contracts for film adaptations can be written in a million different ways, just because a company buys the rights for a feature film does not necessarily mean that the company has carte blanche at that point.

    The first disk has 7 episodes on it, so I'll be able to see just enough to watch it go down the drain. (and thus not waste time with a second DVD if I don't like it).

    I've just started watching STRAIN, first episode shows promise. I like it when I think a show is going to go in one direction and then does a 180 before the end of the first episode.

    How do you guys search through PixIV? I tried to use the English translation tool from Google and then no pictures show up - without it I can't make any sense of the page...

    It managed to "offend" a very vocal minority, I never personally met anyone who preferred the old show to the new one though. It also managed to keep very good public opinion for 4 years, where the original was pretty much a joke after just one year. And we can all ignore that 1980 stuff... That said, a remake of Macross would go very wrong if it strayed the way BSG did, all SDFM would need is a new coat of paint (ALA The First), the basic story and the characters for Macross holds up very well today - the only thing that does not is the "lurch" in the story caused by the ordering of more episodes and the terrible animation at some points. Brings up a question, is "The First" supposed to be based on Minmei's (Minmay?) recollection of the events? If so that easily explains any differences between it and SDFM (like Hikaru giving Misa flowers when he first meets here? - did I read that in an earlier post?)

    Reminds me - a month or so before the SciFi channel went live they showed a screen full of static, but in the static was pictures from scifi movies and TV shows. Sadly I "watched" quite a bit of that...

    That is a noted problem with CGI that is too human like, it is probably one reason that Pixar does not make the humans in their animation too realistic (even though other things are nearly photorealistic). The closer CGI gets to be "real" the more creepy the things that are not realistic become.

    Which leads to the question of why a better quality version is not on the web - it's marketing 101 these days. If that is directed at me, I get all my news from here (and anime news network - but generally important stuff seems to get posted here first...)
  18. Dynaman
    Ditto, that is one bad quality video. The thing was far too grainy for me. I generally like Harlock, and would love to see a mdoern CG version, but that video did not inspire any hope - simply due to it being so low quality of a video.

    It will be anounced to be on hiatus - with hiatus meaning something other then what it actually means - other then the fact that it will not get released for years if at all. Then again, maybe I'll be surprised.

    I must submit that the New Jersey (my home state) was the longest serving battleship of all time though. (NJ was in Vietnam where the other ships of the class were still mothballed - the 16 inch guns were capable of making instant helicopter landing zones in the the Jungle)
  21. Dynaman
    Reminds me, I have not yet watched the last two episodes, maybe I'll get around to that someday - but probably not...
  22. Dynaman
    I've seen it, nothing special as far as I can remember. Only thing I really remember was feeling kinda dirty after seeing it...
  23. Dynaman
    Well there is some hope for a US release of some kind, SciFi (syfy) channel had a link to the trailer on their website today.

    Just saw the Van Gogh episode in the states, probably the weakest episode of the new Who so far other then the very first one (where Rose is introduced, not of this season). The occasional reference to you know who is a nice touch though. And the line about Impressionist Painters and identifiying the photo was funny.
  25. Dynaman
    Most likely the only US release of the film will be on DVD. Most things from Japan NEVER get released in the US. Maybe we will get lucky and the Star Blazers crew will dub it (I wouldn't hold my breath though!) Special effects and post processing work will be a large part of this film so I doubt much more of it exists in a presentable form yet.
