what's funny is you created that Gundam Live Action Movie thread

I’ve had that happen to me as well, I blame old age. Sometimes I’ll wonder if there’s a thread for something and after searching can’t find it. Then maybe another try later in the day and there’s some thread that already existed that I actually started. Makes me wonder if I originally created one while I was half asleep or something

Actually that description sounds pretty close to a rom com star. They’re always traumatized and kinda a total 💩head moody and socially withdrawn til they meet their special someone that’s supposed to turn things around. That’s all kinda the basic formula

Unless something awful happened to romcoms while my back was turned, I think that's just the domain of a few specific actors whose films skew more comedy than romance like the ever-cringeworthy Adam Sandler.

You can bin most romantic comedy male leads in one of three basic categories: the Himbo, the Shy Guy who isn't really shy in any meaningful sense, and the Humorless Workaholic. Traumatic backstories are usually fodder for the "serious" romance stories, especially fantasy romance stories.

Definitely feels to me like Gundam's live action movie is kneecapping itself before it's ever reached the starting line with a terrible set of casting decisions.

I hate them, but my lady loves em. They seem to have more neurotic characters than they used to back in the simple 90’s. They often mix the usual problems of old with some kind of tragedy or horrifically toxic relationship that they need to escape from to find their true love. Most of the older ones had the boring dude with a boring over stressful job meeting a chaotic girlfriend that shows the guy how to be more exciting or whatever. It’s kinda flipped to where the people live absolute chaos and then meet the boring person in a small town and they end up living peacefully in the end

Oh, you're thinking of Hallmark movies.

The ones that all go "big city business girl with business boyfriend has to go to generic country town where she grew up before moving to the city and falls in love with some guy she just met because he's different from her stuffy big city boyfriend".

I wouldn't really say the leads in those are arseholes... they're just regular guys living the 9-5 life instead of making a quaint, folksy living farming christmas trees or whatever in a town so small the annual bake sale determines its continued existence.😅

That's not really Noah Centineo's bag. He's more in the himbo comedy genre.

Bolt · January 30

I never hated their older stuff, but after Use Your Illusions, they jest became more and more of a joke. I guess it could be a worse band and be something like depressed mode

Bolt · February 4

I'm looking forward to seeing this on the big screen. The use of that oh so familiar (song) guitar riff is pretty good for the end theme. If the whole movie was Guns n Roses , i would have a hard time with it.

It would be astounding if there was a new G Gundam show in the works.

David Hingtgen · March 22

I was really hoping to see Domon and Rain, more than "a fight we've already seen before, re-mastered".

davidwhangchoi · March 23

YMMV region availability as always and usually for a limited time. (I'm in the U.S)

Gundam channel on youtube is showing Endless Waltz OVA as of 3/22/26.

Seto Kaiba · March 25

Apparently Hathaway II: the Sorcery of Nymph Circe is coming to US theaters on 15 May.

Bolt · March 25

nice! looks good. hope it comes out on netflix.

Seto Kaiba · March 25

I'll definitely plan to go see it in the theater.

Let's hope it's not quite so long until the third and final part. 🤔

Been a while since I last went to the theaters. I think John Wick 4 and Top Gun were the lasts ones... before that, a limited release I saw in the theaters was the Shin Ultraman/

Wonder how widespread Hathaway will be avail at theaters.

Terrible comparison. Quess was into Quatro Bajeena.

And this guy is too dark,

Seto Kaiba · March 27

Quess wishes she had a hundredth of Ranka's personality or charm. Gigi wishes she had one ten thousandth of Sheryl's.

Also Quess is dead. She's not going to make any progress in a love triangle as a Newtype ghost or a memory haunting Hathaway.

F-ZeroOne · Friday at 07:43 PM

In that teaser... is Hathaway fighting the Nu Gundam? I am seeing that right?

As long as Gigi doesn't end up in a coma and Hathaway vanishing into thin air I'm good.👍

Guessing it's a flashback or maybe some type of pilot battle simulation scene.

Probably a flashback as Seto said above, but could be triggered by the mass production type revealed under that messy garbage
