Ginrai Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 We have a new episode of Destroy All Podcasts DX up! http://www.destroyallpodcastsdx.com It is about Macross 7 The Movie: The Galaxy Is Calling Me! We are seriously almost out of Macross to review. Quote

We are seriously almost out of Macross to review. Dynamite and FB2012 are the only ones you haven't done, right? Quote
Ginrai Posted December 1, 2008 Author Posted December 1, 2008 Well, there's Mech Graffiti and manga (Macross 7 Trash, Mylene Beat, and Macross II: The Micron Conspiracy), which we will probably do. I am thinking of maybe a Macross Omake episode where we talk about FB2012, Mech Graffiti, and those little Macross Frontier webisode things where they are office workers and maybe separate podcasts devoted to manga and such.

That'd be cool...I can't imagine there's much to say about Mech Grafitti, though. And I thought the podcast was spot-on this time (although I liked Pedro more than you did, if only for the scene where he leaped into Emilia's mouth), but I did notice a little mistake...the song about the old silver guitar is "Remember 16," not an improvisation. Which is even better, really, because it means Basara can see the future with his songs! Quote
Alex Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 How about the Docking Festival audio play? And what was the name of that radio play where the Mac Plus and 7 crews meet up? Haven't heard it but want to if only for the scene where Max starts lovingly praising Sharon Apple. Quote

It's not like you can subtitle audio? Quote
Noyhauser Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 Obviously you're not serious enough to be a true macross fan. How disappointing Quote
VF5SS Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 Do you guys have transcripts or summaries of these radio dramas? Do you want to come on the show and talk about them? Quote
Agent ONE Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 AWESOME!!!!! I'll be watching with NO pants on. Quote
Gubaba Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 Do you guys have transcripts or summaries of these radio dramas? Do you want to come on the show and talk about them? I've translated a lot of "Miss DJ" here, and I know pretty well what happens on the rest of the album. In the same thread, Lynn2009 has also started "Distantly Fading Memories" and "Macross Generation." I don't have word-for-word translations of the other albums, but I could probably cobble together summaries of them...I most likely won't have time until the holidays, though. Docking Festival's probably my favorite. They go for flat-out comedy on that one, and do a pretty good job of it. All the others seem a little...inconsequential. Quote
Ginrai Posted December 2, 2008 Author Posted December 2, 2008 You know, I looked through that thread and there's not really anything more than the barest whiff of a story. There's not really enough meat for it to be worth reviewing, IMO. Quote

There's not really enough meat for it to be worth reviewing, IMO. Well...yeah. All the drama albums are like that. "Macross 7: Mellow Heart Beat," for example, takes 74 minutes to tell the less-than-compelling story of the Flower Girl trying to log on to the Fire Bomber homepage and send a message to Basara. And no, I'm not making that up. Quote

REEL IN HORROR as she composes an email! SAVOR the disappointment when she immediately gets an auto generated response!" Quote
