Robotech: TLAM finally happening...yeah, right...

Not falling for it.

Harmony Gold has been saying "it's happening" for years and nothing. Harmony Gold has been saying a lot of things for years that didn't happen.

Fact: HG still doesn't have the rights to do anything more with Rick, Lisa, Max, Skull Squadron, the SDF-1, et al. I doubt they ever will, thanks to the utterly crappy way they snaked Tatsunko (sp?) on the international distribution rights.

Whatever might come out of this (again, not holding my breath), it won't be the Robotech the fans have been begging for for forever now.

Fact: It's Sony. They can't figure out how to make consistent bank on Spider-Man, arguably one of the most popular and recognizable characters ever. They're gonna take on a far less name-recognized property like this?

Guess they're hunting for their Star Wars franchise. Good luck with that.

Mind you, I'd love to see it happen, if the rights could be secured and if it were done correctly. But I'm being realistic here. It won't happen, and if it does, chances are it will suck royally.

It will probably happen sooner or later but it will be a piece of crap. If they can make it close to the TV show I would be all for it but we all know that wont happen.
 
They have been trying to make a show forever. Remember Robotech 3000?

At this point, HG and the fandom deserve each other.
 
Well, Sony had it right with their FIRST Spider Man trilogy....but when they screwed it up in 3, they took out the people who made it good, and then rebooted SO SOON, for the simple reason of making money, and forced to make a new film.

I would LOVE to see a movie, with the following cast:

Jessica Sanchez (of American Idol) as Minmei
Jack Black as Ben Dixon
Tobey Maguire as Max Sterling (but as Rick in some leaked photos, to make the internet explode)
