Tampo it up like Bandai!
-
Sentinel! lol. The perfect scenario would be for Bandai to sponsor a Macross The First anime and they can produce VF-1's and other fist gen mechs and figures off that show and... well that's it. That's all I care about. Then they can hand off that Frontier license to Arcadia or whomever. We all know that the VF-1 is one milkable mother-effer.

Well... they HAVE been jerking us off for a while now.

Hey Graham... if your contact ever gets back to you, is there any way you can ask him if we can get copies of all the promo pics they had of all the Macross toys they made? It'd be great to archive those. The ones they had with the Zoomifiers.

Have you tried applying it like a decal? Try heat of a light bulb, ultra violet light (might yellow plastic) or passing a low temp blow dryer without melting the plastic. Practice with a scrap piece of styrene.

You can say that it's weed and they won't have to die. Hollywood doesn't kill stoners. i.e. every stoner movie ever made.

You guys got an Objet Eden?

Forgot to mention one more thing... the production office was full of people that could have answered any calls. In fact, they were entertaining pitches from writers and producers for other scripts while the whole mission was going down just to keep up the ruse

OK from the 42 minute documentary I just watched they didn't mention Canada as part of the ops. They did mention that they had to get full cooperation from the Canada as far as getting passports and backing up the story. The CIA ops went there to brief them and get approval of what was to take place. They did mention the UK embassy specifically. They said that there were a couple of consulates that chose to head for the UK Embassy and those people were eventually turned back to the American Embassy, but the six went straight to the Canadian embassy. This was from one of the refugees' interview so it was first hand account. No mention of NZ. There were a couple of great points that weren't included in the film. Maybe they were shot and left on the cutting room floor, but it would have added to the story and suspense if they used them. A couple of changes from actual events to the movie: Tony Mendez had a partner. I suspect that he was left out because he's still in active duty because they didn't give his real name and they even hid the actor's face from the dramatization. The refugees were moved from house to house. This could be what happened to the New Zealand part of the story. I'm suspecting that they cropped that part of the story to streamline it. I mean, moving them could have replaced the scene in the Bazaar but I think it had more impact and more suspensful to actually have it to do something with the moviemaking storyline. Location scouting was never mentioned. No maid in the house. Could have happened but was never mentioned. Of course the final chase never happened. Seemed obvious. There were repeated calls by the Iranian intelligence to the Canadian Embassy asking for the six missing consulates. The Iranians welcomed the idea of having a film crew there to stimulate tourism and to show the world that they were still a stable economy. They were under little or no suspicion. Again this was just a 42 minute documentary for Discovery but I'm guessing that Canada's involvement with actual ops was portrayed well enough, I'm not saying it's accurate. But the fact that they were given full credit at first may lead people to believe that they had more to do with it. Though from the statements by the people involved it was Tony that bought that tickets (he bought two sets) and nothing was mentioned about staking out the airports. They did represent the fact that knowing the ins and outs of almost all international airports' routines was part of their jobs. I do still think that Canada's involvement wasn't reduced, to me it came across pretty well that the Canadians stuck they're neck out for six Americans. Affleck still deserves that Oscar. Like I said, the ops went a lot smoother than represented, but I think it did well to show the anxiety these people were going thru and the danger they were in if discovered.

oh, they did get screwed then... lol. But the movie didn't make the US Government shine either. I think the Canadians still came out ahead. Anyway... gonna watch the doc to learn and compare.
