Aurel Tristen Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Can someone shed some light on this? I randomly came across the picture (and then tweet) while looking for VF-1 reference images. It is a tweet that reads:"Macross/Robotech Live Action 2016!!... #Macross #Robotech #MacrossDYRL #ClaudiaGrant #LisaHayes #HarmonyGold #SDF1"A link to the tweet.I'm guessing there still isn't a movie coming, but now I'm very curious about that image, as I've never seen it before. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight26 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 It's a fan image, saw it on Deviantart a while ago, nicely done though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Clue #1: Any use of Macross designs would summon Thor down from Asgard to slam dowm Mjor on HG & WB for the grandest litigation the universe has ever known. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antibiotictab Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 NO such news in Japan, so why did you think it leaked first in the State? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azrael Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 NO such news in Japan, so why did you think it leaked first in the State? It's someone's blind hope. Someone sees something on Deviantart, spreads it around, and then someone says "SEE!!!!!!! OMG!!!!! MOVIE!!!!!!". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynaman Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 You know they are releasing "The Force Unleashed" this year since they are afraid to release it after the RT movie... (Man I feel dirty now) RT jokes aside - that is a nicely done picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aurel Tristen Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 I added the False Alarm part to the topic's title. I didn't want people running in here assuming that it is a real thing. Sorry, I put it in quotes to try and distance it from fact. Anyone want to post a link to the original artist (and higher resolution version of the work)? BSG was damn good, and struck a lot of the same chords. Macross would probably need to be three movies (Hollywood would LOVE that) or a high budget TV show. Sadly it is still a bit hard to get Americans to take gigantic transforming robots seriously. I was actually excited about the transformers movies simply because I hoped it would plant the seed for transforming robots on film. Don't get me wrong, if Bay were to direct Macross: The Real Damn Movie, I'd probably become a hermit so I'd never have to see a frame of it, but if the right people took interest... Then again, I'm still waiting for the Evangelion movie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
