Don't get so full of yourself. This is not some rare impossible to find gem, it's on the Robotech DVDs.

I'm being facetious. I agree with Roger. The idea that you will stop humans polluting earth by making earth suffer a nuclear winter is ridiculuos. That's committing the ultimate act of pollution and largely collapsing the ecosystem. Yes, it will eventually recover most likely, but very different. If the idea is to protect the plants and animals on earth, this is a terrible way to do it.

This is bombarding the body with a NUCLEAR BOMB instead of cancer radiation.

This is not compatible with the stated goal of saving earth from mankind.

Thanks Phyrox, that's exactly what I was trying to say.

Maybe you missed the part where we said for a movie that was supposed to be about Char and Amuro's feud being resolved about 90% of was Quess adventures in being a brat. That was the biggest problem. This movie was a total disappointment in its stated goal: to resolve Char and Amuro's story.

Super strange. Was this anime?

Wow, that is super weird.

taksraven, are you seriously suggesting the only reviews should be positive reviews? Give me a break.

This isn't a colony. This is a massive asteroid and sure looked like an extinction level event.

Just like the 2001...

Uh, ALL LIFE ON THE PLANET IS DESTROYED. What's left to heal if you kill all the animals and plants? It's not like this is a magic humans-only asteroid that can't kill anything that's not a human.

This is insane. Destroying the planet will not heal it.

Uh, but Gundam and Macross and many other robot shows from Japan in the 80's use the same SFX library and many of the same sound effects are in both shows all the time. Like the computer shutting off noise from DRYL in the Protoculture city is in Gundam all the time. They use the same robot stompy sound effects and stuff like that.

His goal was to save the earth, free it from people so it could recover, and allow mankind to move onto the next stage of evolution. And somehow destroying the earth and killing billions meets that criteria? Like I said on the podcast, Tomino just needed a neo-Hitler since every Tomino Gundam has one, and since Char was designated bad guy this time, they just rewrote Char into Gihren. This way out of character.

Tomino is not a great writer. The translator, Fred Shodt, also translated Osamu Tezuka's Phoenix and that stuff is poetic and moving. Besides which, no translation has anything to do with scenes totalyl void of drama, and all of the Amuro and Sayla sex stuff is not remotely romantic and just really gross. Seriously? People carry public hairs into battle as good luck talismans? Tomino is far more interesting as a director than as a writer.

Don't you mean Liberator? Or is Dominator something that's supposed to follow Liberator? And I dunno, I didn't even watch Liberator.

Like the live action Starblazers, Evangelion, and Robotech, I'll believe it when I see it.

We have a new podcast. http://www.destroyallpodcastsdx.com It's about sexually molested schoolgirl assassins who shoot guys with weird sci-fi lunchbox guns. And they get raped and stuff.

Oh, so in the "real" version of the story, and it's really boring and crappy? Yes, I am saying the Gundam 0079 novels are not very good. In fact, they are quite dry and bad.

The Banpresto are super cheap crap and just kind of fall apart even standing there. Parts just pop off. The Toynami 1/100 is MUCH better. Even if you don't like Toynami, anyone who has handled them both has to admit the Banpresto is nowhere near as good as the Toynami one. Banpresto's Valkyrie suuuucks.

I was expecting some consistency, which apparently was my mistake.

Aww, man. Lame. I hope we don't need to buy imports.

You've gotta be kidding me. Haha, that's funny. Well, it just goes to show our integrity if the site we are hosted by is advertising stuff we totally slammed.

Yeah, really. Even her dad couldn't stand her. SO SHE KILLED HIM.
