I have just heard about this 'remake' and i already know none of what you hoped will be true .

We're talking about Sony pictures here. The studio who thought it was a good idea to basically call GB fans virgin neckbeards.

it's a possibility that they won't mess with it too much considering that the source material is anime from the 80's. Yeah, I'm being hopeful. Sony really needs to change out some of their staff in sony pictures.

Do you guys sleep,eat and take a shit thinking about pc, feminism and sjw ? Why bringing that here ?

No, I don't (I haven't brought up feminism at all on this forum in spite of my sig) but it is relvent to films these days because alot of them are getting the pc treatment.  Ghostbusters...... It's a legitimate worry.  I don't want any modern day politics in it so sue me.

Bah, Wonder Woman screenwriter. Sure he was. I hear so many stories about who wrote what about that movie. Pretty sure Zack Snyder had a lot to do with the story, but no one wants to say that cause he is hated. Then there is BvS, he is credited as like the whole reason the story sucks in peoples minds, yet it was largely celebrated before BvS came out when Terrio was brought on to rewrite that script when Afleck joined. So why isn't Terrio hated on, but Zack is? So I'm always skeptical when I see "director/writer/ect of XXXXX movie" when bragging about a new movie coming out by them. They always list just the one success and ignore the 20 shit shows.

Looking at this guys other credits, and the fact that I know no matter what he did for Wonder Woman it was not him alone I'm not excited for this at all. Plus Sony Pictures brings zero hype as well. Hardly ever do they make a good movie.



"Sony pictures"...welp it's going to suck balls.

I just want to understand, what is your fear related to Robotech, what is the stuff you dont want in the movie , stuff that you think will ruin the movie ? 

Yeah, I'm curious as well. How can they make Robotech overly "PC?" The cast was already fairly diverse on the original show, so even if they add a few female or minority characters, how does that change anything, really? 



The anime was enough, Hollywood really is all about just rehashing old content. If they lack ideas I'll send my trilogy for them to make a movie of it.

Do you not understand what I mean by political correctness treatment? I gave ghostbusters as an example and anyone should be able to connect the dots with what I mean. I want the film to follow the plotline of the series and stay faithful to that universe on the major stuff. I don't want to see anything to do with progressivism or political correctness talking points especially the dialog of the characters. I don't want to see any of the characters changed for the sake of being more political correct or for the sake of being "inclusive". Imagine if the next zelda game, Link was a trans black woman who preaches the gospel of socialism and Zelda was a pansexual FTM trans who hates capitalism. This is an extreme example of what I'm talking about and but it still highlights my point. I don't want to see something bastardised for the sake of a political agenda. 



Sony pictures is one of the worst filmstudios out there. So they will screw it up nonetheless.

Because lately a lot of screen adaptations, remakes and others have ignored source material and tried to inject "PC" into the movies only to turn out to be utter shit, a lot of it due to that. Recent examples are death note and ghost busters

Megan Fox looks like the character and could probably do the role. Camilla Belle is also another good one. Maybe Phoebe Tonkin too.
