??? Thought the mobile skin handles that for most smart phones these days... You mean for feature phones (i.e., regular cell phones)? -
There's also the scene at the very beginning of Ep. 4 where you hear the pilots confirm a reactor shutdown against the Juaggu. And then there's the famous scene from Ep 1 of MSG where Amuro's inexperience causes a Zaku to blow up, creating a large hole in the colony. So yeah, ideally, you don't want those MSs to blow up.

Isn't this film more for the Kaiju/Daikaiju genre? Giant monsters and giant robots. Sounds like Godzilla vs Mecha-Godzilla.

IIRC, Zakus mount their reactors in the belly/hip area so yeah, he was probably was trying to commit suicide and take as many with him.

Banshee's First Impressions of The Galaxy is Calling Me!

Perhaps the OP isn't paying attention... -
Banshee's First Impressions of The Galaxy is Calling Me!
azrael replied to VF-15 Banshee's topic in Movies and TV Series
That would also be incorrect. It's not even a semi-sequel. It was made when the rest of the show was made and was just an add-on to the Macross Plus movie release. Kinda like the Pixar shorts that get added on to movies. VF5SS is correct in that it was a part of a double-billed feature. -
The VF-11 was cheap. Can't beat a bargain. And heck, if Hakuna can take a VF-1/VF-0 and turn it into a monster machine, why can't Chelsea?

To answer the retorical questions with silly answers...No, not when Star Trek has such a "rich" franchise to draw from already. And no. Why screw things up more than RDM's re-imaging. Not when you have great shows like Voltron Force. For Robowtech? You betcha. As I've said many times, the only way out is to re-image from head to toe. And seeing that nothing is happening on that front, you'll only see more threads like that one.

What is this "First Macross"? There's Super Dimension Fortress Macross or SDFM or Macross The First, but no "First Macross". No.

That I can't answer. After 15...or are we on 16...I can't remember...It's not bad. It's standard Gundam-fare. I'm interested in the multi-generational aspect of the story.

Blame Whedon for that. He wanted Cap to be dressed more like a superhero than a soldier. I would have preferred something a little less form fitting, non-color matching utility belt, a darker blue, and a more body armored-look.

The computer and electronics super geek thread
azrael replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Probably creating one. Will you notice it? Probably not. It would probably end up annoying you more than giving you a headache like the old CRTs. With video, things might not interlace properly. It might just be enough for you to notice, but it shouldn't be bad. You may see some motion blur or some flickering (If you can call it that since LCDs don't really flicker) since you're slowing down the refresh rate. Are you creating one? Yes. LCDs have a "optimal" setting to avoid issues. Will it be a substanial problem? Don't think so. Unless you're sensitive to those changes, you should be fine. -
Romance in Anime Better or worse today?
azrael replied to leading edge's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Won't it be better to use shows that have romance as their central theme than a mecha space opera? Romance in other genres are somewhat boiled down to the essential component. Guy picks the girl and that's it or the line is hinted at but never crossed, usually never becoming the focal point of the show. In a romantic-themed series, the guy picks the girl, but that doesn't necessarily end the story. In fact, it's used as a point to explore the relationship. And this formula hasn't changed much. So if the formula hasn't changed, then perhaps your perception of the story has. -
Romance in Anime Better or worse today?
azrael replied to leading edge's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Say that to the people working on these shows. Then why are you using you using romance from a mecha space opera as your example as opposed to romance from a romanced-theme show like say...Kare Kano? -
Romance in Anime Better or worse today?
azrael replied to leading edge's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
"Wah wah wah. Today's anime isn't as good as yesterday's anime. Wah wah wah. I want things to go back to yesterday!" Certain people should come to the realization that they're not getting any younger and kids these days don't follow the ways yesterday's generation. That includes their romance dramas among many things. Nostalgia always looks better than today. But we don't live in yesterday... Unless there's some anime about a guy who goes back in time to become his own school teacher who gets his past self to hook up with the girl who he had feelings for but never shared them with while reliving all the stuff from his past, but also discovering that the girl he saw as a friend actually had feelings for him and that maybe he should get his younger self to look at her as more than a friend.... I need to write a manga if I keep this up... -
No. Cuz some member(s) seem to find stuff before the rest of us do and don't wanna translate it into something the rest of us can read.

Why do they wait so long to release a Macross Series?
azrael replied to leading edge's topic in Movies and TV Series
Every series has had a different writer...Hiroshi Ohnogi, Ken'ichi Matsuzaki, Noboru Ishiguro, Sukehiro Tomita, Minto Hajime, Sukehiro Tomita, Shinichiro Watanabe, Keiko Nobumoto, Hiroyuki Yoshino... There's always Gundam. -

And SDFM. MII. Kawamori can call any director he wants, but he's still the executive producer. -
Not necessarily. Considering it's from a user on the official site forums who's doing exactly what we're doing (i.e. speculation), I won't put too much weight on the post.

Perhaps you should watch Frontier or any other Macross show...AGAIN, as you seem to be missing some of the key points of the show. And perhaps you should try to read some of the material out there before asking. Vajra, as explained in the show, can go through fold faults. Thus, they don't have to navigate around them. Meaning their path through fold is, well, a straight line. And the shortest path between any 2 points is a straight line. And due to the fold quartz in their bodies, they can generate lots of energy, allowing them to travel through fold for long distances without stopping. Very far. We don't know. Watch the next Macross series to find out.
