terry the lone wolf Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 Yeah I've been doing the same thing to. I'm looking at Macross 0 dvd vol.1 and Macross 20th anniversary disc. Last night I watched Robotech Perfect Collection Macross vol.1(only the Macross half). A few days ago I dug through the bins and found my Macross Plus dubbed collection. Let's end the summer the Macross way. Quote

Hell. that wasn't even on dvd, it was VHS (I don't even think they had dvd's back then...nope). Quote
JsARCLIGHT Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 As much as I like Macross, the concept of sitting in front of a TV for all that time straight would drive me insane. I can only watch like one or two episodes a day, tops... or one movie. I start fidgeting in my chair and want to go outside and play... Quote

I start fidgeting in my chair and want to go outside and play... im not going to watch it all straight. im going to wach it all on the final week of summer. so its like 3 macross dvd's a day. if i was going to watch it straight i would rather wach something shorter like evangelion ore nadesico.

JsARCLIGHT Posted August 22, 2003 Posted August 22, 2003 I just can't passively sit there and watch TV. I'm good for 2 hours... 3 at the most and I start to go insane. I also can't watch the same thing too close to itself, like several episodes of a TV show every day. I burn out very quickly that way. I think that's why I prefer to buy stuff on DVD and watch it at my own pace so I don't loose interest in something too fast. I just don't have the genes of a couch potato... I have the genes of a tree squirrel. That's why I'm always hopping around the internet, walking around the office, buzzing around like a bee... How I got those squirrel genes I'll never know, but the unfounded fear of birdbaths is a real negative. Quote
UN Spacy Posted August 23, 2003 Posted August 23, 2003 Considering how much time you spend at home. Don't you think it's a better idea to take a little weekend trip (with friends and/or family)? As much as I enjoy watching Macross, I don't think I'd be able to watch THAT much in one weekend. Although, I've been known to pop in the DYRL DVD and go to sleep listening the Lynn Minmay sing a little Tenshi No Enogu or Ai Oboete Imasu Ka. Quote
Toby Danger Posted August 23, 2003 Posted August 23, 2003 I'm already back in school... but I ended the summer with an Evangelion Marathon... all 8 DVDs, Death and Rebirth, and good ol End of Eva. Macross marathon would be pretty sweet too... maybe next year. Quote

I couldnt resist i got out of hospital last week and he FX set arrived the next day, i had nothing better to do i watched it without weeping, i only done that before i went into hospital Hybridchild Quote
zephyr Posted August 24, 2003 Author Posted August 24, 2003 i was waching macross volume one and i rememberd something. i dont like subbs. i cant just sit there and watch the tv for three hours. dubs i like i dont have to sit there i can move around and frolick. so im giving this macross marathon thing a second look. maybe ill watch all the stuff i havent seen like macross 7 fb2012 m0 volume 2. and maybe rewatch evangelion for the 3rd time i just cant put all that macross in my brain so fast its like chuging a gollon of milk you do it to fast and you vommit.

Basara Posted August 24, 2003 Posted August 24, 2003 Damn... all I had to go on when I was 14, were Mandarin dubbed Macross re-runs... ' They're starting kids early these days.... Quote
MicronianDevil Posted August 24, 2003 Posted August 24, 2003 I started watching my Animeigo Macross DVDs again. Love them. Now and then I'll sneak in my FX DYRL DVD. Quote

Go to the pool with some friends, get some sun. ride your bike. its summer for gods sake, don't spend the last few bits of it in the dark watching anime! youve got plenty of time to become a psycopathic macross junky, you only get to be a kid once.

Abombz!! Posted August 24, 2003 Posted August 24, 2003 I did Gundam style last vacation.... every single Gundam show available.... straight! By the end of the week, if anyone said "Gundam" I would jump on them and punch them to death. <_< Quote

Bub Posted August 24, 2003 Posted August 24, 2003 I did marathons of Macross7 with my younger brother. [power to the music.......power to the universe] I'd say we enjoyed the non stop six-seven episode in one sittingeveryday til we finish the series. [ikuze!!!] And you see, I'm happy. [Try again...... Try again!!!.........] Don't forget to watch M7 the Movie which actually happened in the middle of the series. [FIYAA!!!!!!!..........................................] I still have to see the OVA's and specials in marathons and I still won't loose my head. [bOMBAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!] Quote

But Macross marathons aren't that bad either. go get some friends, and if that doesn't work, make some enemys, don't just be a shut in. get a magnifying glass and kill some bugs or something, cripes. what ever floats your boat i guess, just know its going to get harder and harder to go out and meet people the longer you wait to do it. why not go mow lawns for a few days and buy a bike, i don't know. maybe atleast invite some local macross world members over for popcorn and macross.
