If memory serves me, Terence Howard was the first actor signed up for the part in the first movie. I heard he was paid more than Downey. His role was bigger but they scaled it back. But that's between Favreau and Howard.
Bear in mind that the VFs in Frontier were done via CAD. There's no pencil works because there were never many to begin with. Those drawings that we have seen were those made for the 1/72 model sculptor to use and very rarely do those get released by Bandai. Zinjo is correct that the Red and Blue books have almost all the lineart from the series.
It's still a tentative date. It may be that the August-timeframe date is when they'll have a press release and officially announce the title of the movie, who it features, exact premiere date, etc.
I didn't watch it till morning. I'm not staying up an extra hour just to watch it. Okay, maybe for the series finale but not this week or next week. We're you waiting for my commentary????
It wasn't a killing field,
but otherwise, it was a demolition derby. As for Patrick
That would be a cheap way of getting a movie out of this series...Just think...3 movies with re-worked animation of the series we watched a year ago (yes, by next month, it will be a year since Frontier came out)....I hear Gundam 00 is getting the same treatment...
Considering the people they are facing are using GN-backed armor which, as we've seen in season 1, is near impervious to conventional weapons, it's not like they have much of a choice.
