NastyNate Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Reveal hidden contents ^Nice comic that plays on the ending to the Gundam 00 movie. Thanks to all that went to see the movie in Japan and kept it alive for us on the other side of the planet. I have been very anxious to see the outcome in this series. Still very excited about seeing this one for my self when it comes out in a year. But now that my questions are answered I can bare the wait much better. Reveal hidden contents I think Since the movie is still not cannon over the series I think I still might just make up the ending I like in my mind anyways.

vanpang Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Okay I could not resist the spoilers, i am not going to wait 1 year before the Blu-Ray / DVD is out. After the reading the spoilers, I am actually happy and can't wait to watch it later. BTW how did the YF-29 performed ?

Fact of the matter is, we do have quite a pile up of lost heroes at the center of the galaxy, and a major unresolved issue of a Protoculture test to see if humanity is worthy of succeeding them. He's been majorly dancing aorund this issue since Zero, and likely already has in mind how he wants to end things in a big Macross finale. Of course, this is also the man who invented the Wing Goddess ending, one of the cruelest teases is entertainment history.

Hey, you're here too? It's me, one of your customer . Anyway mon, you'll always have TV ending if this movie bothered you so much. You can think this movie as alternate plot. Not that I want to open another discussion on which one is canon. One question: Reveal hidden contents About Isamu, did his face shown or voice only? And what VF he used?

I only have the sanctity of non-confirmation. Don't worry. Everyone who hasn't seen the movie is focusing on the ending, which is only one of many, many pleasures offered by the movie...and not even the greatest one. Not by a long shot. The problem for is that people keep asking me questions like, "Don't so-and-so live or die?" and answering that question opens up a host of other topics that really WILL ruin the movie for people. Think of it like episode 17 of Frontier...if someone hadn't seen that and said, "I get the feeling Ozma's gonna die. Does he? Don't tell me anything else." Well...you could answer it, I suppose, but it takes away all the tension of the episode. What people are sad about has nothing to do with what you'll remember most after the movie's over. EDIT: One thing that I am worried about, however, is that this is very much a "big screen" movie. I'm worried that it'll seem unimpressive when watched on a TV or computer screen.

Before anyone says, "hey cuz, youze in Japan. Why not like go see it in the theatre like yesterday 'cuz it's like dope and stuff and playing like now." I work nights and have 3 kids - one of which is 2 months old. Even if I could get away to the theatre, I'd probably end up falling asleep halfway through. These days, more than 5 hours of sleep in a row is a godsend! Edited February 27, 2011 by sketchley
Tochiro Posted February 27, 2011 Author Posted February 27, 2011 Well I'm finally home - I havent been home since I left to see the movie on Saturday. Have seen it just over 2 times now (snuck into the final 20 mins of a 3rd session for reasons I'll detail in a post later) and been to a bunch of events. I have a tonne of photos that I hope to put up tomorrow. As for all the speculation going around, I really dont want to comment - I'm not one to give out spoilers and ruin the movie for others. However, I am currently toying with the idea of doing a podcast with other MW members who have seen the movie to discuss what we thought of it. Its still a couple of weeks away but I'll post here once its done. I'm looking at some of the so-called spoilers being posted and...ugh. People, please dont post machine translations of Japanese. Often the meaning ends up literally backwards. Not to mention that the English is virtually indescipherable. I've even seen posts where people are claiming they know the ending - and its obviously they are just making things up based on the last trailer, sigh. For what its worth, I really enjoyed the movie. It does a LOT right. Tightens up the plot, and explains a lot of things that needed explaining (as Gubaba noted, the existence of the YF-29 was explained effectively and simply in a few lines). The films biggest weakness are those things that are left unresolved (which I wont note here). The love triangle isnt one of these things. Its resolved in a way that made me feel satisfied. I'd put it up there as second only to the original Macross tv series in terms of being a good resolution (albeit one that keeps the possibility for future continuation or spinoffs-not that I think either will happen). The animation is GORGEOUS. Definitely a step up from the first movie. Action scenes are FAST - I cant wait for the bluray so I can slow the damn things down a bit. Speaking of the bluray, while it has yet to be announced, at a talkshow today Tenjin said he would be surprised if there wasnt some 'touch ups' done on the bluray version, much like the last movie. Nothing official as of yet but certainly something to look forward to. This is definitely the type of movie that benefits from being seen on a big screen. When it eventually hits DVD/blu I urge everyone to watch it on the biggest screen available to them. Kanno knocks the music out of the park with this one. The soundtrack is seriously good and the wait for the albums release on March 9 is already killing me. the titular song in particular worked way better than expected. Theres also a few tunes that are VERY Stand Alone Complex-ish. The movie has more than one concert scene this time. Oh, Captain Wilder gets a bit more screentime as well - a good thing imo since he was pretty much a blank slate in the tv series. Also, a bridge bunny gets balls in her face... while in a very skimpy outfit...... I'll leave THAT scene up to you imaginations ;-)

According the magazine (newtype or HJ, I forget), VF-29 is based off YF-24 and developed in parallel with 25 and 27. That's why all three planes all came off the production line within a short timespan. In fact, 25 and 29 shared common components (aka toy-dies ) according to the magazine.

nexxstrait Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Arghh! Some quick questions for you lucky fellows who have seen the movie: Reveal hidden contents Any old Valkyries making an appearance? pre MF era, so VF1, VF19 etc?) Any old Macross characters cameos from previous series (please, don't mention WHO they are, just if there is any of them) Are there some cool VF171 Battroid scenes? Thanks
ATLMYK Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Last movie took 10 1/2 months to make it to bluray. Hopefully this will not take so long.

Kyp Durron Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Reveal hidden contents Wow. That ending to the love triangle is really lame in my opinion. Especially if it's just left like that. I'd rather take the T.V. version any day.
