  1. A bit off-subject, but let's say if Sony do went through with live adaptation of Macross. Using the same theme and plot with the alien ship crash lands on Earth and they get attacked by a powerful giant humanoid alien race. But they do not call it Robotech nor Macross, but something entirely new with different character names. It will basically be almost the same as SDFM with expected liberty of changes. But the core story stays the same. Would a cgi-fest movie with giant mechs fighting other alien mechs, and a love story inserted be appealing for the mainstream audience? Didn't the audience liked the first Transformers movies a indication that this idea would sell to the public? Transformers Dark of the Moon and Age of Extinction made one billion dollars. The first one made 750 million and the second 900 million. So there is a profitable market out there for giant mechs?
  2. The same happened to me too. It was Robotech that got me into Macross. When I started watching Robotech, I didn't knew it was a different adaptation from SDFM. Thought it was the same thing. I was really shocked and surpised when I found out about the debacle of HG.
  3. If Sony is still moving forward with the live-action adaptation, maybe it will be new reimagining of the whole R' and Macross with a new title?
  4. Did the Overtechnology found on SDF-1 played a huge part on how fast Earth could build these settlements on the Moon and Mars? Because without it, it would have taken decades I guess.
  5. Did Shoji Kawamori ever considered at the beginning of writing DYRL? to make it as a two-part movies? I was watching the gameplay of DYRL? videogame and it had a cutscene where the Prometheus got destroyed by apparantly Zentradi laser from space. Maybe with two movies they could flesh out parts where it felt rushed, for example how Max and Milia 639 developed their relationship after the fight?
  6. I kinda wished they kept the tv suit for the movie, and have it being a standard for the average Zentraedi soldiers. While the redesign is a commando/elite ones. Have it recolored to match the Regult pods. The standard suit can potentially be a supporting force for the battle pods.
  7. Is there any particular reason why the Nousjadeul-ger got a different design in DYRL? The Queadluun-rau tv ver. is almost the same as in the movie. So why was the NG so different? I look at the tv version and it just look heavier and bulkier.
  8. But making them look grotesque is just making them look different and they still are people with thoughts and feeling. I don't mean to make them look like The Thing or Dead Space Necromorphs. Now I suggested they have cybernetic implants instead of the tatoos. Just for appearance. But seem I hit some people's nerves here, so I won't make another thread like this anymore.
  9. Just because I want the Mardook to look more grotesque doesn't mean I want to dehumanize them. I want them to look badass in my pov, because I like it. I'm a horror fan and I enjoy villains that has the ''inhuman'' look. Despite me wanting them to be 8 feet tall and have cybernetic implants, their personality and storyline will be totally different than those mentioned characters. It's just the aesthetic I didn't like with the Mardook. Their mecha and ships however, I do like. Except for minor changes like colors and legs on the pods.
  10. Didn't it looked a bit different in the tv version if I remember correctly? It's been a long time since I've watched Super Dimension.
  11. Oh it didn't? It's just the intro of DYRL where you see the logo in japanese and the SDF Macross appearing from the shadows. I linked the video of Imperial destroyer appearing in exact the same way and I think maybe Gareth Evans, the director of RO had taken cues from DYRL to make that scene.
  12. Seeing how big the Zentraedi is, do they have to almost fold themselves inside a Regult battle pod? The Regult is slightly bigger than a Valkyrie, and a standard Zentraedi is almost the same size as the figher jet.
  13. The opening of Rogue One took clearly inspiration from the appearance of SDF-1
  14. Not so many talk about this ship, but I love it. Especielly this shot from DYRL. The fortress looks something from HP Lovecraft horror.
  15. The story can still be the same with Hibiki finding Ishtar and developing their relationship, but just in a military pov setting. This is just my personal taste on aesthetics. I don't think they would look Borg lame if you are referring to them from Star Trek? Mardook don't need to look exactly like the Borg. I would replace the weird tatoos with cybernetic implants. Both suggestions are just my personal taste. About the gore, I'm a horror fan so I like edgy animes.
  16. What do you think about the other points I brought up? Sorry for mixing with the series nobody want to talk about. I simply mixed with Veritech and Valkyrie very often. About the Zentraedi UN fighting the Mardook. I just wanted to see them using outdated Regult battle pods and power suit against the more advanced ones from the Mardook.
  17. I rewatched it again, and I see a lot of potential that could have made it much much better. What I like the best about it, is it's use of the love song theme like DYRL. It's good, but with some changes it would have been as good as DYRL. What I would have changed: -Hibiki is not a reporter, but a Veritech fighter. -Story will be set more on the Gloria. -Mardook do not have those tatoos on their faces. They will be 8 feet tall and have cybernetic implant instead. -Mardook origin will be a surviving militant faction of Protoculture and be the Supervision Army. -Lord Emperor Ingeus will have a more cybernetic grotesque look. -The Zentraedi standard battle pods will be repainted to dark blue color, and have two legs. I'm gonna rip a bit off from MOESPEADA Inbit trooper and use similar legs on the pods. The command pods will not be repainted, but have legs as well. -The Variable Mardook fighter will be repainted to dark green. -Have gore. -Love triangle between Silvia, Ishtar and Hibiki. -See the UN Zentraedi forces fighting the Mardook.
