Robotech the Movie
« on: September 08, 2007, 07:49:31 AM »
Maguire, WB attack the big screen with 'Robotech'

Quote
After slipping on a mask for Spider-Man, Tobey Maguire might be slipping into a giant robot for "Robotech."

After a lengthy negotiation, Warner Bros. Pictures has picked up the rights to bring anime classic "Robotech," which featured giant robots known as mechas, to the big screen. Maguire is producing through his Maguire Entertainment banner and is eyeing the lead role in what the studio plans on being a tentpole sci-fi franchise.


Have the original theme and I'm there . . .

Oh wow, that'd be exciting...

Just as long as they stick to the original robotech though. I hate everything else Macross.

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.  Maguire does seem like a good fit for Rick, though.

I wonder if they'll redo everyone's favorite episode, Phantasm, for the film.

I hope it's superb, since Robotech was the first anime I ever watched, but I doubt it'll get past mediocre.

Stop Hollywood.  I'm serious, Transformers was stupid.  Don't eff up Robotech too!
