Protoculture Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Hell, we'll be lucky enough if Mac F the Movie sells well in Japan (which it probably will). Hopefully, with box-office success & equally successful Mac F toyline, maybe .... just MAYBE ... SK will be tempted to continue with MF, 2nd GIG ... uhhh, 2nd season! Quote

MilSpex Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 Good point. It's like people getting annoyed that Mylene didn't make a choice, but c'mon! She was FIFTEEN at the end of the show, and sixteen in D7...most people don't know who they want to spend the rest of their lives with when they're sixteen. Or seventeen (like Sheryl) for that matter. Now if the movie jumps ahead to when Alto, Ranka, and Sheryl are in their mid-twenties, THEN we'll have something... Even Japanese adults are extremely immature. They`ll declare their love for someone without ever dating so whether the characters are 14 or 24 it won`t make much difference to the outcome. Thats something I found disturbing about Klans love for Michael, I mean they`d never even dated but she knew she "loved" him. More like stalked him. If I had a girl like Klan obsessing about me without even dating me I`d start to get scared and might jetison myself into space too. Quote
505thAirborne Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 I was thinking the same thing. The CGI mecha looks slick but I can't see how they could make THAT big a difference between the TV series and the movie; although Kawamori probably wouldn't really care anyway. I wonder if he could get Mikimoto to do the character re-designs for the movie? Mikimoto.... We should live so long!!! Quote
Ishimaru Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 So any rumors on a possible release date? Quote
Final Vegeta Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 Thats something I found disturbing about Klans love for Michael, I mean they`d never even dated but she knew she "loved" him. Technically, they have dated, in exchange for informations about Sheryl's pill. But they were childhood friends. FV Quote
MilSpex Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 Technically, they have dated, in exchange for informations about Sheryl's pill. But they were childhood friends. FV Oh missed that, that makes more sense. I still found the Klan, Michael and Luca characters very annoying. Quote
taksraven Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 I'm still holding out hope for a second season to be announced after the movie. Graham It would be interesting, but in the end I hope that they don't make such an announcement. Each Macross series, OAV or film generally having a different setting/set of characters is one of the aspects of the series I really enjoy. Taksraven Quote
Gin Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 Prequel using Ozma's past would be better than a retelling of the story, though I really do hope that the movie is a continuation. Quote
dreamweaver13 Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 ok, here's a trollish possibility. what if... it's just going to be the FULL version of the Birdman movie?! Quote
Morpheus Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 ok, here's a trollish possibility. what if... it's just going to be the FULL version of the Birdman movie?! Nope, just an OVA. Quote

Hmm...careful, sounds to me this could be true...a prequel, linking F to 7...and Basara in concert....BOMBAAAA!!!!!! (after all, M7 was a hit in Japan's home market right?) Quote

(after all, M7 was a hit in Japan's home market right?) Interesting idea, Sheryl's blog states that she was inspired by listening to a singer who when he/she sang, felt as if there was wind coming from the singer. That singer could possibly be Basara putting out powerful song energy (although, I think she mentioned that the singer was female making it Mylene or Emilia). Quote
Agent ONE Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 I want a condensed re-telling of the series, and I want to see Ozuma pork every woman on Frontier, then I want to see Alto actually pick a girl (don't care which one) then I want to see a cameo appearance of Basara. I want him to die choking on "something" in a men only bath house. Quote

WISEGUY Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 I wouldn't mind them cutting the oversaturation of story and singing. Cut the soap opera and gimme more VF-25/Vajra fights! Then again, Macross has always had an abundance of story and singing. Character development and story are essential parts of story-telling, a fact long since ignored by mainstream Hollywood. I guess I'm just a simple man, but I want more fightin'. Quote

As for Alto is concerned:"Please, Kawamori for the love of sanity have Alto hook up with Sheryl!!!" And for Basara? Well a cameo of an aged Basara is ok, only if we can see Minmay!!! Quote
Morpheus Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 I just want more Konig Monster action and more background story about Canaria, a badass destroid/valk pilot and also a mother. BTW, they can also show Alto in his/her glory during his Kabuki heyday. Quote
d3v Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Nope, just an OVA. Split into five episodes that will take forever for each episode to come out. All kidding aside, since Ohnogi already got involved with Frontier to help develop Sheryl's character, how about Mikimoto return to do character designs for the movie so we can have all three back together again.

Yes, but is that a good thing? I don't know about Aquarion( I've only seen a couple episodes) but, many fans of Escaflowne over in Japan loved the tv series and were disapointed in the movie. The visuals were outstanding and yet it did not have the same effect on fans and many came away upset by the changes. Everybody is looking to the Mac F movie to have that same impact as DYRL(I pray that it does ), but I'm not sure that's going to happen. Oh' I'm sure it will be good it's just I don't think 25 years from now it will still have A place in fans hearts like DYRL. Quote

Well Aquarion's OAV/Movie retelling was Awesome... it was very faithful to the original, but retold it in a different way/scope just like DYRL back in '84. Escaflowne though... yeah it was extremly different from the original series, and while it did grow on me with time, I was severly dissapointed at first. I've always wondered the extent of Kawamori's involvement in the movie actually, because unlike the series... it really didn't felt very-Kawamorish to me. I would expect the Macross F movie to be more like DYRL or Aquarion (assuming Kawamori don't put a Tomino on us and simply does a re-edit of the series :-P) -Sergorn Quote

VFTF1 Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 I would like the movie to focus on the relationship between Vajra and humans and how everyone gets on on their new planet and what this entails. Also - I guess my sensitivity is just utterly different from everybody else - but to me, the love triangle was obviously resolved in episode 25. Alto says that both girls are his wings - and Sheryl and Ranka like one another. Who says Alto has to chose one? Isn't it obvious that the three of them have gone through something very special together and that will bond them together for life? He chose both and they will be a triangle. The end. The movie should also have Bassara and lots of flowers. Oh - wait - as good an idea as that is - here's a better one for the movie: Make it star Klan Klan. Have it be a noir like film; Boggie like. Klan Klan tries to solve the plot of Micheal's sister's death - she does this out of a sense of duty to honor her fallen lover and clear up his family's estate. Make it a feature length anime film - a mecha-detective-criminal movie. I would LOVE that. Or Basara and flowers. Pete Quote
