    I can't say I've ever seen what's going on internally within that fandom happen anyplace else. They're turning on one another, they see bogeymen everywhere, and the liaisons through which they can interact with their object of affection have an infamous reputation that is well earned. I take back what I said last week: if people aren't fired over this I'll be flabbergasted. How the hell do you run a business like this? Edit: someone post up a popcorn pic please.
  2. Duke Togo
    Yeah, that was my feeling as well.
  3. Duke Togo
    Yes, that sounds about right to me.

    It's important to keep in mind that they were going to shoot this film with Gibson 14 years ago originally.
  5. Duke Togo
    No, not an alternate universe. Same Max from other films.
  6. Duke Togo
    Makurosu is what you're looking for.
  7. Duke Togo
    What you get out of the various interviews with those involved is that this is indeed the same Max, but that each movie has had someone else (within that world) telling his story. Thus, it becomes a matter of perspective and storytelling, sort of how we have many different versions of the Arthur legend.

    http://madmax.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Benxander/Fury_Road:_sequel,_reboot_or_something_else%3F Pulls some quotes and references interviews. What I said on the previous page is as accurate a take as you are going to get.

    Miller says it follows Thunderdome.

    A1, who runs Barter Town?
  11. Duke Togo
    Might be busy. And no, clearly you are in the wrong.
  12. Duke Togo
    This is incorrect

    Their only avenue forward is MOSPEADA. They either embrace it or continue to flounder. Macross is a dead end for them. Who knows how a MOSPEADA sequel would be received in Japan, but it certainly would have as good of a shot as any of the other dozens of new anime productions we see every year. Of course, that's assuming HG were co-producing, and not trying to force their "creative talent" into the writing or design process.
  14. Duke Togo
    Yup, 10% of your brain...
  15. Duke Togo
    Am I way off base here thinking that their best option has always been to co-produce a sequel to MOSPEADA, and later adapting it to fit into their continuity (while throwing out everything not seen in the original Robotech series)? It just seems so blindingly obvious to me.

    They really didn't seem to have a better plan for it than the potato salad guy did. Outside of reading the guidelines it doesn't strike me that they did a lot of research into what makes a successful kickstarter, and they seem to be doing a lot of stuff on the fly.

    Those expensive collector editions are almost always a bad purchase--especially when it comes to MMOs.
  18. Duke Togo
    And life goes on. They (HG) all seem pretty aware over there that the problems are within their own fanbase. Well, yeah, the problems are actually with the creative leadership, but their lack of funding and backlash is mostly a product of unhappy Robotech fans.
  19. Duke Togo
    Hardly.
  20. Duke Togo
    I appreciated the reference, not so much the implication.
  21. Duke Togo
    Wasn't my intention, but alright.

    A couple of MWers trolling McKeever about his former misadventures on this forum that got him banned. And this right after he essentially told the people whining about Macross fans to STFU.
  23. Duke Togo
    That's because you're only using 10% of your brain.
  24. Duke Togo
    Ok, who's going over there and trolling their forum staff? Seriously, we're all a bit too old for this sort of thing, no? Doesn't make you any better than Captain Neck Beard and his Basement of Wonders.
