  1. And apparently MEMO is moderator there or something. I didn't stick around long enough to find out, but it's a bit like being in bizarro world.
  2. Gurren Lagann knows no bounds. It pierces the very reality of animation, spreading across animated universes like an unstoppable force. Who the hell do you think they are?
  3. Curiosity killed the cat. I didn't stay long, though. And you're right, there really is no reason for a Macross fan to be doing any hand-wringing over this KS. It's 2014, we can get anything we want Macross related no matter were we live. Sure, we are all going to rubberneck a little, but we have no stake in whether this succeeds or fails. It doesn't affect us.
  4. I went over to the Robotech forums just to see what the scuttlebutt was regarding Academy over there. My brain now hurts.
  5. It looks like a space hovertank. As if someone crossed a hovertank with a legioss.
  6. I can't believe I'm defending HG here, but if I had a dime for every anime that borrowed a concept or design from someplace else, I could fund this kickstarter with one donation. Anime productions are notorious for ripping off all sorts of previous works, and have been doing so for decades. Hell, if not for Blade Runner, the anime industry likely would have collapsed.
  7. I don't think the opinion of two people who think it looks like something from Macross can be used to characterize our entire discussion here.
  8. They're filming a Jem movie right the hell now, and a new Turtles movie is almost out. If WB had any faith in the property, Robotech would have gone into production a while ago.
  9. How could HG sustain an ongoing series with such high production costs? At best this is a one-off money grab. It's a scheme with no long term prospects.
  10. The strongest parts of Robotech came from the three series it was forged out of. The weakest parts all stem from the "creative minds" at HG. If they had any real creative talent, they'd have jobs elsewhere.
  11. Feasibility study, lol. More unattended PowerPoint presentations at cons?
  12. HG's track record says July 2015 is a pipe dream.
  13. I found that very few games do this. You can back them up if you have PS Plus, but I assume most people who don't play multiplayer games don't have it.
  14. Let's say they get their 500k. How long before they produce anything? Given their record, we're likely to see further seasons and sequels to anime works currenrly in production before HG produces a one-off episode.
  15. PS Now prices are beta and nowhere near final. They're testing things.
