  1. Yeah, have to second this. If you go back to the original discussions about the series, I was really close to writing it off after the first episode, but admitted that what I saw amused me, so I kept watching. Boy, am I glad I did!
  2. The radio show also states (something along the lines of "look for") that there will be some changes between the preview episode one and the actual episode one.
  3. Yeah, I dig the opening.
  4. Such a great design, wish we had seen more of it.
  5. It should be noted that the first episode we saw might not have been finished. We've discussed this before, it may be more of a first cut than a "director's cut", as it was touted to be. We saw footage in the commercials that was clearly altered when we saw the first episode. When this show actually starts its run, we may see additional changes. Maybe that opening sequence is changed, improved, whatever.
  6. I suspect, perhaps, some of the ships went out in pairs. But we really don't know.
  7. But did they re-use the ships? Also, the opening of 7 and Frontier both seem to imply that some of the New Macross ships may have gone off in groups as well.
  8. Looking back again, in the opening scenes of Macross F, we simply don't see all of these Megaroads. The Compendium lists 13, which was the last official word pre-Frontier From Earth we see launching: Megaroad-01 Megaroad-02 Megaroad-04 Megaroad-06 Megaroad-09 Megaroad-13 I am assuming we have more than one ship per fleet in some of these, but I have no evidence of this. Still, number 13 is as high as they show. I guess one could also assume that ships were re-used, but we have no evidence of this, either.
  9. Oooh oooh, we have Ride Armor in Macross F!
  10. No, Kawamori has been practicing a decent amount of retcon the past few years.
  11. Which is where it loses me, because I see the Macross franchise as "serious". I guess I was kinda looking forward to it being handled like Robotech is in the podcasts. But, whichever, I did listen to it all. At this point, I'm just a little surprised Gurren Lagann, which is obscenely over the top, hasn't gotten a show yet.
  12. It sounded like, and someone who owns it please correct me on this, but it sounded like the ADV release used an altered audio track. Effects changed and what not.
  13. *cough* retcon *cough* Somewhere in these threads we have a breakdown of alot of the fleets seen in the opening of Macross F.
  14. Actually, the opening sequence of Macross F shows more than 13 Megaroads, I do believe. General carelessness on my part.
  15. But they used a different, low quality audio, did they not?
  16. I wasn't expecting the love fest.
  17. Yeah, but what kinda product will you be getting on Bluray? It was my understanding that HG had not used Animeigo's work in their own releases (not sure if this was audio and video or just audio). And do I really need a HD release of a 25 year old animated tv show? Is it *really* going to look any better than it does now? I've seen some older animation that just didn't look so hot in HD.
  18. Well, I just find it inconsistent with the other podcasts. But, we all have our own tastes, I guess I was just expecting something different with this particular podcast.
  19. I just don't get it.
  20. That it was, which is when it became the Megaroad (which there were 13 of).
  21. Yeah, ya lost me on this one.
  22. Because it plays no part in the franchise.
  23. Do you really think we'll get a Bluray release, though?
  24. I dunno, nobody else had or was going to put the time and effort into SDF Macross that they did. We got lucky.
  25. I'd like to think, in 2008, they'd be able to resort to more than cheap animation tricks to replace "Macross" with "Megaroad". I mean, the show is CGI heavy, but they couldn't rework the logo for international release? I don't imagine it would be a problem.
