LIVE ACTION ROBOTECH (WB gets the rights)
Keith replied to UN Spacy's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
If you guys are expecting anything other than Independence Day, then I don't know what to tell you. Two things can be safely assumed. The name "Macross" will appear absolutely nowhere, and Big West won't get involved, because they seem to be smart enough not to whore out the franchise. -

Keith replied to UN Spacy's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I'd pay good money to see Bruce Campbell grab a women & yell "Now watch jet jockey!" BTW. Does anyone else find it odd that the Yunes, who seem to have been involved in everything robotech for the past several years, are not mentioned anywhere in the HG staff? -

Ace Combat 6:Skies of Liberation for XBOX360!
Keith replied to Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
At least you're getting Ace Combat! -
Don't even get me started on dubbed live action movies....that's a whole mess in and of itself. Especially when the fanbase there exists specifically because it's so bad (dubbed monster movies & what not). Slightly related true story. I ran into the guy who played Spike in the Cowboy Bebop dub one day at a supermarket. I was in line ahead of him, and he was buying flowers for mothers day. Someone behind him asked him a question about the flowers, and upon his answer I immediately reccognized his voice. He was amazed that I knew it was him, as that apparently rarely happened. Even funnier, was him trying to explain to the guy in line behind him what he did for a living .

Yup, dub Ed doesn't even remotely hold a candle to Japanese Ed. Same goes for Spike & Vicious. I like to attribute the whole sub issue to driving. If you can succefully drive, and take in all of the visual information around you without hitting anything, then you can watch subtitles. Words after all are also pictures in themselves.

Dubs suck, all dubs suck, period! As far as I'm concerned, you're not truly watching a show unless it's in its original language.

Macross 25th Anniversary and upcoming new TV series thread

Meh, contacted them days ago, still no reply! -
Macross 25th Anniversary and upcoming new TV series thread
Keith replied to azrael's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
I'm so glad I waited on picking up the R2 of DYRL all of these years. I don't see how any sane fan can resist the memorial box! -
Ugly & Beautiful world was...well, it had that cool metalic red in the intro? How often do you see that in animation!
-
Eva hasn't even remotely touched upon the marketting & re-re-imagining that series like Tenchi have. Not to mention the uber-franchise that is Gundam.

The Aim for the Top! Gunbuster Thread v2.0
Keith replied to Noriko Takaya's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Finish watching Diebuster, the last 3 episodes take a similar turn. -
Eva is more guilty of marketting than anything else how? I trust Anno & Gaiax, they hasn't let me down yet (Melody of Oblivion wasn't that great, but still enjoyable). Besides, they freakn' created Gunbuster!

My main concern is inexpensive future-proofing. Since we're in the same region as Japan now, importing Blue-Ray's are incredibly easy, not requiring any player modification. Only downside is, they still block R2 DVD's. And while I'm sure modded BR players will be out eventually, they'll also likely be quite expensive for a while.
-
It's going to be a long wait to see these licensed. I wonder who will win this time
-
I'm going to wait for blue-ray release, or for Bandai Visual to bring this box out over here, whichever less likely event happens first. I'm sooo tempted to get this, but like the 7 box's, I must resist! BTW, has anyone written Bandai Visual to bug them about releasing this stuff? I think I'm going to right now!
-
I can't wait to watch this show!

Macross 25th Anniversary and upcoming new TV series thread
Keith replied to azrael's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
Watching more Macross to get prepared can't hurt, especially since 7 gives a lot more backstory on the Protoculture. Kawamori does love his self contained stories though. -
Battlestar Galactica Discussion
Keith replied to HoveringCheesecake's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
As I'm finally nearing the end of the Babylon 5 box sets, I've been considering checking this show out. Quick question. Is the miniseries included in the first season box set, or do you have to pick up that seperate disc. -
Macross 25th Anniversary and upcoming new TV series thread

Damn, unfortunately, the Japanese fanbase hasn't caught on to our superior american bootlegging & equipment hiding techniques! -
Macross 25th Anniversary and upcoming new TV series thread
Keith replied to azrael's topic in Hall Of The Super Topics
I like the idea of stealing back the "HOOOMMMIIINGG LAAAAAAAASSSEERRR!" from Gunbuster & Gall Force, although there's nothing saying that there can't be a super High Manuever Missile developed in the future. Since VFX-2 is somewhat cannon, the Sound Jamming system could also be in play (i.e. making missiles & radar totally useless). And now that I think about it, the 2070 era would also lend itself to a much larger universe. The enemy this time may be a fully independent human threat. With the U.N. Spacy stretching itself out across space, only so much control could be contained over individual planets. Where VFX-2 had a rogue coorperation, Macross F could have a fully anti-U.N. Spacy federation of planets type deally. -
There's a new MGS4 video up at the playstation store. I was honestly a little freaked out by the Gekkou's when I first saw them, but now...this is going to be an interesting game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgUaQfxIItY I hope now more than ever though that there will be a Japanese audio option.

I'm sure you've been asked this before, but Graham, what did you think of Gunbuster?
-
If I had the space & spare cash, that Andromeda would be mine!

I seriously doubt the death threat thing. Japanese fans just aren't that rabid. 2chan rabid maybe, but not death threat rabid. The TV & Movie endings are essentially the same, with scenes from episode 25 showing up as full blown scenes in EoE. Looking at Anno's before & after directing style (say Gunbuster & Kare Kano), I think it's safe to say that TV eps 25 & 26 were an artistic choice more than anything, considering with or without sponser support, the budget just wouldn't have been there to do up the last 2 episodes on a grand scale. The rest I'd leave up to internet fan myth.
