  1. New MG Destiny lineart:
  2. Character art + Translations at Gunota (too damn long to post) http://aeug.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archiv...171596059582661 At least their keeping a female captain... I wonder if the guy at the helm is gonna be another miracle pilot.....
  3. We have seen pre-production lineart but at this point, it is still really too early to tell since it was pre-production lineart. The working title of the new series is "Macross 25". Ummm, no. However it may be in reference to the fact that the new VA/singer could be an unknown (to which Ms. Ijima was). However, the audition for the roll indicated that being tied to any particular studio would not impact the final decision. So there is the possibility that the finalist is a known individual.
  4. Try using OpenDNS (http://www.opendns.com/) in place of Comcast's DNS. You might have better luck with them.
  5. That is due to the fact that... http://macross.anime.net//mecha/united_nat...vf14/index.html
  6. That what we hear. A preview (read trailer) will premiere at the 25th anniversary concert on August 18th. The lead actress/new singer will also debut at the concert.
  7. The closest I can recommend is the Nokia N95. It does support 3G and Wi-Fi. I'm not sure about the browser. Unfortunately, this phone is not available through any carrier so you will have to buy it unlocked (not bad thing) which means you will be paying about $800 US.
  8. As much as I don't like integrated video cards, if the wife only needs a system for 'net/e-mail, some word processing, occasional DVD, or otherwise non-gaming or non-heavy picture or media editing, the GMA 950 (and/or perhaps the GMA X3100) is just fine. My Macbook has a GMA 950 and it has worked out for me. If I want power, I'll use my desktop which has a 8800GTS.
  9. As opposed to messing with your neighbor's settings to bridge the connection, I would just tough it out.
  10. Continued from here: http://macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=21926
  11. Yeh. It looks like they actually did gave this one proper treatment.
  12. Nope. Have you seen Eureka 7 or KISSDUM? Think more along those lines of quality.
  13. HD versions: http://www.comingsoon.net/films.php?id=15813 And BTW....those people at ComiCon....watch out for Jokers. http://www.whysoserious.com/surveillance.aspx http://www.whysoserious.com/wannabes.aspx And for those of you who missed today's viral marketing :
  14. Grunt units!!!! and the translation on Gunota: http://aeug.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archiv...748878258062161
  15. Guess the Japanese blogger who called it got it right.
  16. The banner, buttons and some of the title bars feel a tad too dark. Any chance of making them a tad bit lighter?
  17. That was the story in 1982 back when the Gundam theme was popular. The themes for each Macross series change for each series. In M+, the theme was technology's impact on society. In M7, it was a conflict of ideology. In M0, we saw how people judge one another through initial impressions. The theme of each series changes and I expect the same out of the new series. I do not expect Kawamori to revisit any of these themes nor do I want him to. And all this talk of retcons...at this point, I've learned to just live with it. Eventually, someone is going to come along and say "I didn't like how it was done or explained, so I'm going to do it MY way." I have seen this in movies, TV shows, comics, blah blah blah. I hate it, but I've seen it done so many times, I expect someone to come along and say "F U. I'm going to do it my way. Screw what the last guy did. I like it my way and if I can do it, I will." That is what happened. That is what is going to happen. Even Kawamori will do it to himself. Why is it done? Cuz everybody has their own opinion of how it should be done and if they have the ability to do it, they will do it. When Kawamori passes the reigns to someone else for, that person will go back and say, "I want to do things my way" and make changes cuz he or she damn well can, hence a retcon. Some people will hate it. Some will like it. I really don't care cuz I know, it's going to happen.
  18. According to the Compendium, it was a A-version (prior to the "+Kai"/"+2" being slapped on to the designation). So "F-14A+Kai" or "F-14A+2" http://macross.anime.net/mecha/united_nati.../f14/index.html
  19. It certainly works, but...we saw only one instance of that chemistry and it doesn't amount to much. So unless they release a longer or different cut of the film that goes into it more, it's nothing more than speculation.
  20. We know. Onlya month away. But who are we targeting with this new series? You? Or the kids who have little or no exposure Macross in their entire life?
  21. To that, I say Kawamori doesn't seem to want to limit himself to just a few themes and I doubt we will see much to the contrary with the upcoming series.
  22. The site is being slashdotted.
