Gerli Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Nah... it's high quality smoke/vapor/mist. Not gonna happen. Quote

North and South Korea will unite, Guns N' Roses will reunite for good, and Adam Sandler will make an Oscar-winning movie before a live-action RT ever happens. Quote
Negotiator Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Nah. North and South Korea will unite, Guns N' Roses will reunite for good, and Adam Sandler will make an Oscar-winning movie before a live-action RT ever happens. one of those things could be true. Quote
areaseven Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 one of those things could be true. Well I'll be damned. We're gonna need a longer list of things that will happen before a live-action RT. Quote
Knight26 Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 A couple of old podacsting buddies just did an interview with Kevin McKeever regarding this movie. Unfortunately they were not able to bring me in on it, but they are going to send me it first along with notes of what happened before and after to get my analysis. Apparently he was quite squirrelly during the interview, especially regarding the rights issue. THis should be an interesting listen. Once it goes live I will post the link with my reactions. Quote
jenius Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 Is he even employed by HG any more? I figured when they got rid of the forums his job would be the first to go. Maybe they were able to just drop him to part-time or call him a paid intern. Quote
Einherjar Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) Props to an old friend Zen72 for ultimately being vindicated on all fronts by this movie not going anywhere for a decade, I guess karma finally reaching McKeever for being a huckster, and the official website/forum reduced by internal problems to looking like nothing more than a blog.

The forums transcended this plane of existence and moved to a higher one. Just like Dave Bowman at the end of 2001. Quote

Duke Togo Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 I prefer to think of them as fighting evil in another dimension! In another dimension? How many forums are left? Quote

Gubaba Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Including this one? One! Robotech X is mostly a ghost town, but it's still there... Quote
Einherjar Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Robotech X is mostly a ghost town, but it's still there... They got hacked recently. Hope you didn't leave any personal info there. Quote

Knight26 Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) http://tggeeks.com/blog/2016/02/01/tg-geeks-webcast-episode-58/ So the interview posted. According to McKeever, "Sony has the rights to make a live action film based on all 85 episodes of robotech, and can approach it from any direction they want." He repeats that at least three times. Still listening to it now, LOL, a lot of BS coming out of his mouth. Edited February 1, 2016 by Knight26 Quote

Keith Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Sony Pictures lawyers are probably going to take a different view if they look into the matter in detail "You can use any part, as long as it's MOSPEADA." Quote
taksraven Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 I would love to see ALL 85 episodes adapted into ONE 85 minute movie. Quote
JB0 Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 I would love to see ALL 85 episodes adapted into ONE 85 minute movie.Robotech: The Abridgd Series! Coming to a theater near you for an extremely brief time in 20XX. Quote
areaseven Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 Robotech: The Abridged Series! Coming to a theater near you for an extremely brief time in 20XX. We'll get Dredd 2 before that happens. Quote
Jefuemon Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 We'll get Dredd 2 before that happens. We'll be getting Bad Boys 3&4, a Jumonji remake, and Underworld 5 before Robotech. Quote

Edited February 3, 2016 by Einherjar Quote
Legioss Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 They can approach from any direction as long as it's not the direction of those 41 designs Harmony Gold's lawyers are terrified of that happen to be the things people liked about Robotech and within a budget of tree fiddy. Quote

Old_Nash Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 I would love to see ALL 85 episodes adapted into ONE 85 minute movie. Like Dragon Ball Evolution XD Quote
Dynaman Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 Hey guys, any chance of keeping this to actual new when (yeah, yeah, I know) something actually happens? I'm not even going to bother going anywhere else for "news" on this topic and popping in here every update takes more effort than it is worth... Quote
