Couldn't agree more. I had to watch it a few times myself. I recently rewatched it again about a month ago. I think I've gone through the whole series about 4x now.

Next on Director Bryan Singer's (Superman Returns/X-Men) list is Logans Run. I wonder if Michael Bay actually wanted to do that film and came up with this instead? Very close in concept. Makes ya think huh?

I'd rather another game for the PS2. I'm happy with my PS2 and I really don't want to have to buy a PS3. I've go too many consoles already.

LIES! You can NEVER have too many!
As much as this game kicks ass, it doesn't look good on my HD Plasma screen because the PS2 doesn't have the capability that the PS3 will have for those hi-def graphics! I love the Macross game, but I find myself playing it on my small 19" TV in my home office. I'd love to have a kick-ass Macross game for my 50" Plasma that would make me blow my load!

Does anyone else think that Roy should have survived and they could have killed Rick instead?
Here's the thing : Yeah it would have drastically altered the story. So what? Lets face it here's your breakdown of the characters :
Rick Hunter : A whining sniveling little knob
Max Sterling : A royal suckup
Ben Dixon : An idiot and nothing more than the token fat doofus.
Miriya :She could have been cool if they did more with her character.
So Basically, Roy was the conceited one, yes. But also the least annoying main character. So what do you think, should Roy have lived?
So here is one vote for yes, Roy should have lived.
This is simply what happens... heroes die. Real heroes that is. You're definitely describing the characters from the RT side. Although I don't think Max was ever a suck up, and RT does a crappy way of presenting these characters IMO. Hell, Obi Wan died, and Anankin died in the end. Remember Luke being young and stupid? He did learn though. From a writers standpoint, it's usually the character that the audience can most identify with that endures. We experience the world through his eyes (Hikaru's) and live and learn. Roy will always be my favorite Macross character. I just wish he would have died taking out about 200 Zentraedi at once. More of a hero's death is what he deserved.

Killer job on the lightning! And I'm not that into that Valk! NICE!!! Gets my vote.

Darn! Guess I can't make it! Have fun guys! Perhaps I'll see a few of ya at SD Comic Con.

This game kicks ass!!! I think any true Macross fan will know this is what we've been waiting for. Now we can only hope that we'll get another game for the PS3!

I remember seeing the trailer for this Applseed CG a few years ago and freaking out! I finally saw it and bought it. I thought it was very cool for what it was. I don't think "every" anime should convert to this method. I just think of it as a tool or another medium to enhance anime. I kinda agree/disagree with Graham. I love the CG valks too, but I am very open to new methods that are visually pleasing. I love eye candy. However, I understand what he said about the 80's anime. I just rewatched "Dagger of Kamui" and I was diggin' that again too. Things that don't change die off... just like the dinosaurs. I also hear that John Lassiter (the former head of Pixar now in charge of Disney Animation) cleaned house on the digital animators side with those who couldn't really draw. He's on a mission to bring back some 2D animation, so I'm stoked about that. I truly think that we'll all benefit from a blend of the 2D-3D-CG methods.

VF-1S... definitely with! Especially the Strike Valkyrie.
YF-19... without!

Only other anime I own is Cowboy Bebop. Its weird but Im not a big fan of anime. Only really love Macross because I watched it as a kid and now as an adult can appreciate the storyline and characters alot more. I got into Bebop just because I heard it was such a great series that I had to watch. I bought Session 1 and loved it.
So only Cowboy Bebop so far I would say I am a fan of, but I have seen Blood The Last Vampire, and both Vampire Hunter D movies which I thought were good.
I haven't seen the 1st Vampire Hunter D in years, don't remember much. But the 2nd film was beautifully done!!!

You gotta be kidding me. I'm not taking offense as to being part chinese...I'm taking offense as to what this really has to do with the forum.
If you want to know what people living in China eat for breakfast than eggs and rice or fish is common, as are friggin' cereal and fruits for those who want it...
as far as people of Chinese descent...pretty much whatever we feel like.
And all of this is moot if you live in Hawaii...be you japanese, haole, chinese, filipino, whatever...everyone eats friggin' everything. And Hawaii is SPAM's capital.
Yup... last year I was in Maui and they even had SPAM at McDonalds! To each his own dude!!!

I never could get that thing to go past a certain level without it crapping out on me...

I like chicks named Holly too... but I think you're referring to "Holy".

Other than Macross, I own:
Appleseed (movie CG)
Blood
Cowboy Bebop (movie)
Ghost in the Shell 2
Ninja Scroll
Wicked City
Wonderful Days
Yukikaze
I have seen Samurai Champloo, but have not purchased it yet. I will also work on getting the Miyazaki stuff. There are a few others I will get in the near future. I mainly stick with OVA and films. Most series just don't have the consistency in quality that I like.

The shirts are OK... it's what's in 'em that counts!!!

WOW! What a helluva season finale! Goes to show ya what a POS Baltar is. However, I didn't think Gaeta would still be sucking his ass. Personally, I like the Beast sticking around (Pegasus). It should add to one helluva fight when the new season begins in October. Till then... enjoy the summer!

My vote is for San Diego!
-
The game rocks!!!
-
If ya wanna play, ya gotta pay...

To this day I still use DYRL as the animation measuring stick!
-
Dude,
Your decision all comes down to personal preference. You definitely can't go wrong with a Roy Focker 1/48. I am definitely drooling over the VF-0 and YF-19.
-
It is one helluva weird story. I only have the first two episodes. Has it actually been completed and released in North America? From what I have seen for DVD sales on the internet, it looks like it has. How many episodes are there total? I thought there were 4.
-
Well... "Skull" from Roy Focker being the Skull Squadron Leader, and "Sixx" from my boy Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue. That's pretty much the explanation.

If anyone could handle doing a Macross movie, it would be Ridley Scott. Those dark visuals in "Alien" would match up perfectly with deep, dark space, the massive size of the Macross, and the eerieness of the Zentraedi. The guy is a master story teller and the best "thinking man's" action genre film director out there!
