I understand the Shadow Rising trailer was shown at the Comic Con this morning. Time to start a new thread!

[baronv]

Well I hope the trailer is playing on a loop at the booth so I can check them out at Comic Con.

Hmmmmm ..... mildly interesting I suppose.

Shadow Chronicles was OK .... but not great.

[lord_breetai]

I liked it, looking forward to the sequal. no matter how many years it takes to release it.

Ha Ha Ha .... well put!!

:lol:

And don't forget about the final chapter "Robotech: Shadow falls."

Wow, a 2009 release...with the low end effort that goes into the animation, just what takes so long?

yikes, 2009 is just silly for a release date. Unless they just started production... :|

I dunno them trying to create a awful storie?

[Keith]

Maybe they're taking the time to study breast implants, so they can get the huge & motionlessness down perfectly!

[Tober]

So does this mean that Shadow Chronicles actually made enough money for a sequel...?

[wolfx]

There's more "chronicles"?

>_>

Words lost their meaning.

Booting up all those ZX Spectrum 48`s and the Comodore 64 they use for the graphics compilers.

Words lost their meaning.

A Chronicle is defined as

1)An extended account in prose or verse of historical events, sometimes including legendary material, presented in chronological order and without authorial interpretation or comment.

2)A detailed narrative record or report.

So basically just like there's many books in the Chonicles of Narnia there can be more then one chapter of the Shadow Chronicles... because it's the Chronicle of the Shadow War... not sure what the problem is there?

Well i just thought it should be:

The Shadow Chronicles/Triology

Part One : Shadow Falls

Part Two: Shadow Rising

Part Three: Revenge of the Shadow

Something like that.

[Keith]

Oh my god, they got Shadow Stevens to be in the sequal!

[Awacs]

"Shadow Rising" - is that not just what happens when the bloke sitting in front of the light stands up?

I'm not expecting much from it to be honest. "Shadow Chronicles" underwhelmed me considering how long it spent in development - after being several years late it should have been a lot better than it was. The fact that they are only promising it will look as goof as "Shadow Chronicles" (i.e pretty lacklustre) despite a projected two years of development suggests that their budget fails to match their ambition.

Plus the thought of having to put up with those faintly ridiculous character models for another ninety minutes doesn't thrill me.

Which is a mortal sin in Japanese animation. Big boobs should bounce and jiggle.

It's an unwritten rule.

I wouldn't be surprised in the least. This is Robotech we're talking about here.

[scand]

Great...... Shadow Chronicles reminded me of a poorly executed video game from the late eighties early nineties. Lost footage from the Crystal Dreams project maybe? Either way, I don't think I'll be watching anymore Robotech!

Something like that.

Shouldn't that be:

Part One: The Shadowed Menace

Part Two: Shadow Rising (aka Attack of the Shadow)

Part Three: Revenge of the Shadow

just what takes so long?

1 1/2 years to raise the money. 6 months to animate it.

[eugimon]

bah, don't be ridiculous, chronicles looked more like 6 weeks. It was probably the "b" team during their lunch breaks after a hard days work of animating naruto.

QFT!!!!

:lol:

Now now, if Shadow Chronicles was up to Last Starfighter level of CG, then Shadow rising will most definately be up to Van-Pires or

. Maybe if they get a little extra funding, they could even get it all the way up to Reboot season 1, or Beast Wars level...
