Very much appreciated! Quote

Did any of you score a set? I would be interested in one if you have any extras. Quote
Shawn Posted September 18, 2017 Posted September 18, 2017 Thank you so much for posting the concert event summary. I got chills when you were describing the SDF-1 coming out of the shadows in the beginning of the movie timed to the music. I can only hope they do a Blu-Ray release of the event, totally regret not finding some way to make it there. Again, thank you for taking us (virtually) there. Tom sure knows his Macross music!!!

arbit Posted September 20, 2017 Posted September 20, 2017 Love the hype. Cant wait to hear this on my trip today. Quote

Tochiro Posted October 5, 2017 Author Posted October 5, 2017 (edited) This episode of the SpeakerPODcast - we report back from JUNNA's first solo gig, meet anison legend MiQ, talk some Megazone 23, debate the merits of Mylene's new voice actress in Uta Macross, look at some new toys, show Tomonori Kogawa some Southern Cross rain boots, and catch an exclusive theatrical screening of 1989's GUNHED. How does it hold up? Tune in to find out :-) http://www.decultureshock.com/speakerpodcast-ep-91-gotta-have-a-party-gunhed/ Edited November 18, 2017 by Tochiro Pic size. Quote
Focslain Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 What covers did JUNNA do for her concert? I got the first two, but the last one I'm not hearing it right (hearing 'daniel'?). Quote

Thanks for the correction. It took some searching, but found it and not bad. I hope JUNNA's next album has a few non-macross covers on it. Next album on the docket is the OST for Magus Bride. Quote
Einherjar Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 I remember GUNHED. Bought a VHS copy at a video store that was closing down with no prior knowledge what it was and only going by the logo on the tape. Could have sworn that it spent too much time as a squad based action movie before the robot even showed up and so dark that I had to adjust the brightness of my TV. It could be worse though. Half jokingly, has there ever been a theatrical screening of something with the quality of M.D. Geist in recent years? Quote

I enjoy your stuff and appreciate the time stamps. A real shame about the new Megazone kickstarter not being successful. They should open up for non Japanese donations to get it done. Quote
Tochiro Posted October 15, 2017 Author Posted October 15, 2017 One aspect of Macross and Japanese culture that we often get asked about by listeners is that of idols. Well, this documentary recently popped up on Netflix and is pretty decent. It only covers a snapshot of a very recent moment in time when it comes to idol culture, which has decades of history, but it's worth a watch imo nonetheless. https://www.netflix.com/jp-en/title/80163353 Quote
seti88 Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Haven't watched it all the way yet, but this is one aspect of japanese culture i always find it hard to comprehend. Quote

I find this is getting to be pretty common. What is happening is that the founders of the Kickstarter are holding back funds from other investors as a just in case it looks like they won't make their goal. They try to earn as much as they can without using that money to maximise their earnings. If the kickstarter looks like it's going to fail, they get that investor to pledge last minute to save it. I think that's what happened with the Megazone Kickstarter. I seriously doubt they got that much from last minute backers. Quote

They could have planned to fund it all along, but reached out to fans to reduce their investment as much as possible. But do those fans share in the profits from the ancillary toy, music and video sales? Quote
Sandman Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 No they don't share in any profits. Only the perks listed in the campaign at whatever tier they opt in at. Quote

Adrian's comments about seeing Macross in 35mm were great. Never realized I was missing out, and hopefully I get that chance to see it in 35mm one day. Thanks for the PodCast everyone! Quote
