I agree, it hasn't changed much, it's modernized from it's old 80's designs, and it still retains the look of the ingram. You can't look at that and say it DOESN'T resemble an ingram. Quote

You can't look at the bay-verse Optimus Prime and tell me that didn't change much from G1, this is very comparable. Yes it RESEMBLES the old Ingram, but they clearly and deliberatly changed every aspect of it to diferentiate from the original. Quote

dizman Posted December 22, 2013 Posted December 22, 2013 Haven't we been over this before, the next generation's ingram is a step back from the original design. Instead of being sleek like the original the new one looks like a mess with a buncha random armor parts slapped onto it to make it look "cool". It's far from being the future of labor designs that we had seen in the series. To the movies benefit it does look like they will be using that 1:1 ingram prop in many shots. I'm glad it isn't going to be some cheap CGI robot that everyone walks around and fakes looking at in the hanger. Quote
Mr March Posted December 22, 2013 Posted December 22, 2013 This doesn't look half bad. They don't show much, so it's hard to say where they are going dramatically or if the series will contain the trademark humour of Patlabor. The Ingram looks amazing as a live action adaptation of Izubuchi's classic mechanical design. I'll have to keep this on my radar. Quote

These Ingrams were cobbled together from parts and are not advanced future labors! Quote

Frogze Posted December 22, 2013 Posted December 22, 2013 Hmm, I hope it doesn't suck. That trailer shows so little... it's disappointing but knowing that Mamoru Oshii is in the director's chair it should be at least worth checking Quote

electric indigo Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 It looks like something that would have been cool if it had been made in the 80s. Quote
LOW_ALT Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 I find it funny that the Kuratas makes an appearance as a rouge labor Quote
electric indigo Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 Apparently, it goes more with the spirit of the TV series than the movies. Quote
LOW_ALT Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 That first clip reminds me of something... Quote
SuperHobo Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 That music at the end was so patlabor. This is shaping up to be a fun looking series. Quote

I just hope the acting is half-way decent. Edited February 9, 2014 by Vifam7 Quote

I've given up hope on that front. All I want is that any good outweighs the bad. Although even in the trailer we have a trademark Oshii fish-eye lens shot, so... :/ Quote

Yeah I noticed alot of Japanese live action seems a decade behind us in cgi and computer effects. But what we can hope for is that more live action stuff comes out because if done well and sells chances are a big buget film can come out Quote
Tochiro Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 Ok, so far the story setup in episode 0 has me impressed. They explain how Labors are no longer viable in the modern world/recession/Japan no longer being at the technological forefront anymore. They explain what happened to the entire old cast. Only Shige is left from the old guard, although it looks like Noa returns as an instructor. This is pretty much a fully fledged sequel. I am impressed. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1fhrxr Quote
CrazyDude Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 I am hyed too, especially after the disaster that the 3rd Movie was. Quote
