A feature-film version of Neon Genericus? For American audiences? Eesh.

Wouldn't that be like Jerry Bruckheimer's 2001: A Space Odyssey?

It could possibly be even worse.

on the other hand, it'll have WETA graphics. Like most Gainax stuff, it might be okay to turn the volume down and put on some good music and leave it in the background as visual white noise.

Bizzare. This thread was totally hijacked into "what are you most afraid of".

How many Angel battles could you cram into two hours anyway?

Conversely, how many circular ramblings on the Meaning of Life could you cram in two hours?

And how many hours would it take to explain all the stuff that never got explained in the series because the guy producing it was a lunatic who was just making **** up as he went along?

Not Nadia, but I've seen Gunbuster. Gunbuster is second only to Evangelion for being utter ****. Pretty ****, but utter **** no less. If you cut out the 10min or so in Gunbuster that are not space combat sequences, then turn off the sounds and crank some good music, it becomes wonderful. :D

I thouth I was not gona comment.
mikhael some of what you say is...no comment.
As for good music...I enjoyed both Gunbuster and Eva...though...
Did anyone saw the "Bohemian Raphsody" music video with Evangelion?
That thing Rocks!!!
That time the song fits so darn good!:

heh? as you're being so cathegorical, I'll answer the same way: your tastes are ****.
Gunbuster is cool ( well, save for the gunbuster itself ). only scifi show I know where they actually paid some attention to physics in space, with the whole time distortion whebn you travel at light speed, and stuff like that. Plus the aliens are cool.

plus out of 6 episodes, there's not even a space scene in the first episode, and little combat scenes in episode 2 and 3. Have you really seen it? don't think so :p

But I don't need to prove anything to such a pityful critic :rolleyes:.

Yes, because one robot against what looks like... what? an entire galaxy? yeah, that's attention to physics and reality and stuff. Real good attention

Exaggeration for effect, Venom. I didn't like it. I can't help it if you did. I can't prove anything to you because you're as firmly entrenched on your side of the argument as I am on mine. You're entitled to your ****ty opinion, even if it is wrong.

You're entitled to hate everything that is good too :p
There's that kind of people who always hate what other people like, and claimes that every obscure thing that hardly anybody knows is a work of genius, and you're one of them ;)

But I'm curious... what are the animes you like ( if any... )?

Gunbuster happens to be one of my favourite animes, coz I looked beyond the " mecha anime with an uberpowerful robot" aspect of it. Be frightened, coz the plot of OTT was based on it. So yeah, I ought to defend it.

Very few of the things, except Iwar, is obscure, thanks.

Most of the anime I like is mecha anime of one sort or another. Detonator Orgunn was excellent, as was the original Macross, and I liked Macross II better, but I hate Macross7 and Macross Plus. I liked Hades: Project Zeroymer. I enjoyed what little I saw of Escaflowne. I like Valley of the Wind, Mononoke Hime, and I love the Final Fantasy anime. I liked the first Guyver (even if it is gratuitous crap) but not the second. I liked Appleseed and am willing to bet I'd like the rest of Shirow's work. Bubblegum Crisis is fun, as long as you don't try to read too much into it, but avoid Crash, and the other spin off series. I especially like Ninja Science Team Gatchaman, including the american butchering of it, and the remake. Oh and there's something I saw that had a planet stuck through with a giant sword and a sword-and-sorcery with mecha theme that wasn't too bad.

I'm sure I missed a few in there.  Like some of the Gundam series, but dear god not all of them.

I don't care about the uberpowerful robot part, or that it was Mecha anime. It was just CRAP. If I never hear that girl scream "CO-CHEEE!!!!!" ever again, it will be too soon.

Are you satisfied?

you mean the manga, I hope...
For the rest, I tend to agree ( save for the macross, I haven't seen macross7, but macross2 wasn't nearly as good as the others ). haven't seen the FF series, and gatchaman was butchered in France too.
Haven't seen Full Metal Panic and Blue Gender? two excellent mecha series, Blue Gender is in my top 10 ( very weird ending tho ).

If we're talking about the same Appleseed I saw... ugh. Felt like the last episode of a three-episode series.

Now Roujin-Z (sp?), that was some funny stuff.

Mmh, you've most likely seen Robotech, actually.
