I Love Macross.

Posted by Phobotech Nov. 10, 2009 @ 12:41 AM EST

I just got done watching every episode of Robotech: Macross Saga on Google Video...I kept it to about 2 or 5 episodes a day.

But I really love that show. I loved it as a kid, and now that I've rewatched it as an adult, I can appreciate all of the little nuances and details. (and now that I've begun animating, I've noticed mistakes as well as impressive feats of animation.)

I just really, honest-to-God hope they don't fuck up the Robotech movie coming out.

.

In other news; I'm beginning to have doubts in my involvement in the Noir Collab by RedHarvest. Although the Warhammer 40,000 collab did VERY well(My animation was the very first short) school's finals are starting to require more and more of my attention...and I'd be a fool to pass up school for any collab NG has going on.

I may get out of it soon, providing some other aspiring animator a chance to shine.

Looking forward to finals being over...
Looking forward to my twenty second birthday on the 20th...
Looking forward to Thanksgiving...
Looking forward to knocking out at least ONE more animation before 2009 is over...

....Straight ahead!

(Film at Eleven)

EDIT: Today I just found out that 100 NG users have added me as one of their favorite flash authors! Thanks Newgrounds, for continuously providing me the inspiration to press on! You guys rock!

Robotech's my favorite to, have you seen the shadow chronicles?

Nov. 10, 2009 | 1:11 AM Phobotech responds:

Negative. I've additionally seen the "Do You Remember Love?" movie, and Macross Plus...I'd love to check out Macross Zero, and see what the big deal about Macross Frontier is all about...

...is Shadow Chronicles good?


Nov. 10, 2009 | 2:11 AM Mastermind475 says:

All generally excellent movies

Macross was a groundbreaking anime seriesm way ahead of its time

that along with Patalabor were pioneering films in the mecha genre of anime which coincidentally is my favorite

I've NEVER seen Patlabor, and I've always wanted to! ...Looks like I kinda have to now. lol


Nov. 10, 2009 | 2:15 AM angryglacier says:

Shadow chronicles is a pretty great movie but much different from the show. It has some pretty awesome dogfights in it and a lot of space opera ish scenes but overall it lacked the great story that made the show so classic but made up for it with some sweet visuals. Have you ever played any of the Robotech games on the game boy or xbox?

Nov. 10, 2009 | 2:28 AM Phobotech responds:

Years ago at a friend's house I played Robotech Battlecry on PS2...first mission in space I kept getting my ass handed to me, though. Very difficult game, but I wouldn't mind trying it again now.


Nov. 10, 2009 | 2:41 AM angryglacier says:

Oh battlecry such a pain in the ass took me a LONG time to beat the first space level, I entered a cheat code to unlock all levels and theres one level where you not only have to protect yourself from a giant army in space with no cover but you have to protect a scanning ship WITH NO SHIELDS trying to scan a place for 15 minutes.

Nov. 10, 2009 | 3:26 AM Phobotech responds:

D:

Sounds like it was designed to be a pain in the ass...kinda makes the Veritech Aces look even MORE badass in comparison, don't it?

Your part in the WH40K Collab was amazing.

Wish there were more animations about Chaos, though.

Nov. 10, 2009 | 3:44 PM Phobotech responds:

Thanks!

...and yeah...My personal favorites were the Necrons, and they were underplayed worse than Chaos.


Nov. 10, 2009 | 3:24 PM RedHarvest says:

i hate you. ...

nawwww im just joshin

Nov. 10, 2009 | 3:44 PM Phobotech responds:

<:O

Oh okay...


Nov. 10, 2009 | 4:21 PM Sinitech says:

I've never heard of this "Robotech."

But it has the words "Robo" and "Tech" in the title, so I don't see where it can go wrong.

skewl sux bolls LOL!11

Nov. 10, 2009 | 4:26 PM Phobotech responds:

It's a pretty good show. Here, check out the first episode.

Nov. 10, 2009 | 4:22 PM Adio says:

Yeah, Necrons always get the short end of the stick.

Does GW even have proper lore for them?

Nov. 10, 2009 | 4:24 PM Phobotech responds:

I heard that there's a part in a book where a captured Pariah digs a little into it, but from what I understand, they're still mysterious.

In other words, idk lol


Nov. 14, 2009 | 12:52 PM Akkere says:

Didn't they also make a game for Robotech? I think I have it collecting dust somewhere. It was something where you got this armor that would turn into a motorcycle, and you would shoot these aliens and these band of bandits called Skulls. It was a whole thing that looks a lot different then from what I am seeing now.

Nov. 14, 2009 | 8:34 PM Phobotech responds:

Robotech in USA pretty much took Macross and some other anime I never really got into and merged them together; the latter called "The Masters Chronicles" or something...so I totally don't doubt it.


Nov. 14, 2009 | 5:36 PM Stickman91 says:

Good luck with everything you've got going on!

Say, are you ever gonna show us all how to make that chicken enchilada?

Nov. 14, 2009 | 8:34 PM Phobotech responds:

lol! All in due time.


Nov. 15, 2009 | 3:31 PM Akkere says:

I almost forgot about the chicken enchilada! And I hope you don't put dick neck as the cook o.o that would make people's stomach turn...
...
...
...
Actually go ahead and put dick neck on the cook. I'd love to see how that would end XD

Nov. 16, 2009 | 6:59 PM Phobotech responds:

lol Oh lord.

Nah, we're all going to learn to cook a Chicken Enchilada Verde by Captain Pollo.


Nov. 15, 2009 | 11:47 PM Masterofallz says:

Gotta say, yours was the only funny one in the WH40K collab. The others were just horrible. Nice job.

Nov. 16, 2009 | 6:59 PM Phobotech responds:

lulz, I try my damndest. Thanks man!


Nov. 19, 2009 | 9:22 AM Stickman91 says:

I'm really starting to miss Sinitech.

:(
