    I like when they go all GERWALK.

    I'm reserving judgement until I know the origin and accuracy of these subs. If memory serves, the Manga subs replaced some Macross terminology with stuff from Robotech.

    Plenty? I just went through the list of films, and there are maybe 5 that are even in the conversation. I'm suspect of your assertion of plenty.

    I've only skimmed the last page or so of the discussion, but I get the feeling we have a few members confusing the Robotech Minmay with the Macross one. They are different characters.

    *chuckle* You guys are are sretching it a bit with Gundam. Gunnm/Alita this story almost exactly.
  7. Duke Togo
    You mean Children of Men?
  8. Duke Togo
    Oh look, it's Gunnm. I was disappointedly unimpressed by the trailer.

    Way too much exposition in the opening scene. But the rest seems interesting enough.

    How is it I got to this before you did?

    Is it available in the US? No? It's A-Ok in my book.

    Get ready for battle! O.K.!

    Ignore this post

    *chuckle* Robotech really is the Mets of New York baseball: a second tier franchise forever stuck trying to relive its glory days of the 80's, never amounting to more than a sad joke.

    Stage lights, flashing, the feeling's smashing...

    No, A1, YOU WILL LISTEN TO KEITH'S SONG!

    I heard that this news may be past date. Is there any truth to this?

    This is how I think this plays out: Hayter does Big Boss in Ground Zeroes, then a new voice actor takes over in The Phantom Pain (9 years and a coma later). This sets up the franchise for Big Boss and Solid Snake appearing in the same game. Note: Hayter has, as of April 1, not addressed a single remark or question regarding Ground Zeroes.

    I really like the VF-2SS in the logo. Just sayin'

    Oh man, Kojima and Hayter are trolling us HARD. I'm convinced now. Hayter even makes sure to date this thing "April 1" at the end of it. http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1rjhhf9

    Woah, calm down there, Spock. Take a step off the Starship Assumption and come on back down to Earth. My point has always been this: the success of any franchise comes down to economics. There are a multiple of factors that play into this, but generally speaking within the entertainment industry positive cash flow = more production. Whether you like what Abrams is doing or not, the interest he is bringing to the franchise can only benefit it--especially considering where its popularity was before the first reboot was released. You will see future Trek productions because of it. To rage against it is cutting off your own nose to spite your face. That's it, that's all. As far as "the human condition" discussion goes, I will only say this: peace on Earth good will towards men, no war, no hate, no religion, no money--that's not the human condition, that's utopian fantasy. I'll poke my head back into this thread once I've seen the movie. TTFN.

    Gulfstream G650

    I have no axe to grind. Your view of the franchise is unrealistic, and you choose to attack Star Wars (not quite sure why, they don't even share genres) as a defense tactic. There is more excitement over this upcoming Trek film than any Trek show or movie to come before it. You cannot deny it.
  24. Duke Togo
    All too easy... Atharun, BSG and Walking Dead are two completely different beasts than Trek. They deal with the human condition, and not some utopian idealization of it.

    And now you know...
