    Hey, looking for line art/detailed images of Yamato from the 2010 live action film, anyone know if there's a technical manual out for it or images online?

    Wow. Even when he blogs he sounds.....I dunno....dignified? He'd be a good writer.

    Didn't Megs beg Prime for mercy in the animated movie? I know it was a......deception, haha, but he did it right? In the DVD extras, it was actually said that they killed off a whole slew of original characters so they could sell new toys. And they also admitted killing off Prime was a huge mistake because of fan-backlash. But I guess all that doesn't really matter anymore.

    For this d-bag, it was never about existing fans, as the new fans will attest. It was about $$$ and making new fans (and maybe converting some or many of the old fans)....which worked. And Don Murphy has pretty much confirmed that whatever brings in more $$$ is the route they will take. As Renato translated "eat it and shut up" is the message for us. For Kanedas Bike, I wouldn't hold your breath for having another trilogy made right, remember, it's all about $$$. Apparently $$$ defines good film making.

    Haha, hilarious! I noticed Sam didn't say "no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" in the most recent instalment.

    I stand corrected, I think they're ugly, doesn't mean their ugly. And you're right, doesn't matter if I think they're ugly, or they ARE ugly, or if more than 50% of the world thinks they're hot or not, they made money despite the fact that the movies were full of plot-holes etc (essentially, the movies were crappy.....sorry, I meant to say I thought they were crappy), and $$ is all that matters. I think I've said that already, and I've agreed on that point. Anyway, they're ugly.

    Wow, haha, do your Cornflakes taste good with mikeszekely's pee in it? Take it easy man, just because the new designs are ugly, doesn't mean to have to get your panties in a bunch.

    The unfortunate thing is everything you said is true. We'll probably never see G1 Prime in live action unless it's made by the fans (Dr. Smoov is heading that direction right?). Speaking of Firefly, the guy that played Wash was in DOTM right? Firefly was an awsome series and Serenity was a pretty good movie....want more but it will never happen.

    I was going to say Tom Skeritt from Top Gun but yeah Connery's in there too

    Holy crap. I've seen bits and peices of the pachinko game in low-res, but holy $hit, this stuff is awesome. Do the animations follow SDF Macross through the entire story? I wonder how Fokker dies in this series.. ....thanks for posting by the way...

    Apologies, I said IDW, but meant Dreamwave.... Ultra Magnus...this one was so awesome:

    I vaguely remember that too, did something happen to him in the second movie? I only watched a cam version once so I don't remember how he lost his voice again. Was it the Junkions that talked like that? All TV and radio voices?
  13. peter
    Acutally, that's exactly what we were talking about.

    That's funny, I see a truck that transforms into a robot....Movie prime looks like random metal scraps glued together. WTF is he supposed to be doing here anyway: Looks like there should be a caption saying "Hey buddy, let's be friends!" I mean seriously, even the hardcore Bay fans have to agree this has got to be one of the stupidest poses of all time.
  15. peter
    The original series entertained me as a child, as most original fans will attest. I guess a lot of the current Bayformers fans were still hanging in their daddy's ballsacs when the original came out. When the IDW comics came out, I had hopes that the series would eventually find it's way to theatres again. Then came Michael Bay and everything was tits up from there. So you're absolutely right, it was way better as a languishing d-league franchise, relegated to comics.
  16. peter
    This is what you're describing: This is what he looks like today, basically the same design, but new and improved. Why can't he look like this in a live-action movie?
  17. peter
    As much as I despise Bay's entire franchise, I lost over two hours of my life last night watching the cam (I refuse to contribute to Bay's income), and I agree with aerocombatpilot on Prime not being a dick. It was simply a matter of logistics....Prime loves the fleshlings, even in Bayverse, so I don't think he'd stand idly by to watch people get slaughtered. What does seem out of character is that he would say "Kill". Prior to Bayformers, Prime always had an aire of dignity (not to be confused with snobbery), and he would never lower himself to the level of the Decepticons (at least not in his speech). I dunno, he does seem a little off, but not quite a dick.

    It absolutely boggles my mind that Robotech is still around, haha! Are there actually enough of these people to keep HG alive?
  19. peter
    More of where this came from! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkPpSfYzUXk I dohn't care if it's about the original characters or not....just the same era. And for the love of god, NO MORE MACROSS 7 PLEASE!!!!

    Are you kidding me? I think they can make G1 Optimus look pretty awesome: I know this is a comic book, but damn: If Uchu Senkan Yamato can be made into live action, and pretty much keep the ship looking generally the same as it did in the '80's anime, the same can be done with Generation 1 designs of Transformers. The MP series of transformers is there for a reason, because there are fans that want it....at least I do anyway
  21. peter
    Yeah, it's definitely possible, as long as Hollywood doesn't get it's dirty little rat-claws on it. I LOVE how they kept Yamato's original design intact. If Hollywod had done it, they probably would have used another WWII battleship.......remember there were rumblings of a live-action Akira? They were going to do it in New York? Japanese film makers are definitely getting better and when it comes to live-action adaptations of Japanese based manga/anime, don't let Hollywood near them. I do NOT want to see the VF-1 end up looking like a pile of metal shards in Battroid mode.

    Just read through that lengthy, but good review. Thanks for posting! That bit about product placement is sickening. Hasbro, you suck at making toys, so get your dirty little fingers out of the designs. I was surprised to see non-GM vehicles in this movie though.

    Thanks for sharing, I've been a subscriber to that blog for some time now, nice to spread the word about it!

    Sorry, Bayformers only have time to develop useless human characters. Speilberg has lost his integrity for making good films, all he's concerned with is the bottom line - $$. To me, he's soiled his good name with his association to this movie and Michael Bay. The reason Bay is still at the helm is because Bayformers is making money. With all the complaints I read about these movies, it's a miracle they're successful at the box office. Come to think of it, the animated movie was also a cash-grab if I remember correctly. They killed off all the old bots and introduced new characters so they could sell new toys. That was actually said in the extras on the DVD. On the bright side, I started watching a cam version last night and I'm not seeing any of the problems the 3D supposedly has

    .....and the potheads wonder if they're really high....."wtf is this kush or oregano? This $hit ain't funny?"
