I wonder how expensive would it be today to do a blockbuster science-fiction production with pre-1990s special effect techniques? Star Wars costed only 40 million dollars in today's money.
>>
>>22731787
I think the issue is more getting anyone to go for it. Cost wise? Well Godzilla Minus One cost 15 million. Shin Godzilla was about the same. You could probably make something for 20.
>>
>>22731787
>>22731795
Another issue is that a lot of the people that know how to do that stuff are dead or retired, and rebuilding the skillset would take time and money. It's like animating robots in anime, without practicing those skills from youth, the new generation just can't do it.
>>
>>22731797
Yeah, you'd need someone to really WANT to sit down and learn it. I doubt they teach it in film school so there would be a lot of trial and error, which would honestly be kind of interesting.
>>
>>22731797
Not true at all. Within Hollywood? Sure, scratch building spaceships isn't as popular as it once was.
But go to any model building con, and you'll find guys who dedicate their free time to replicating EXACTLY the ships from Star Wars, Trek, etc.
ILM still has guys working there who worked on Star Wars, not to mention so much of the production is documented.
Making a film with pre-1990's special effects is completely possible, but getting the production company to agree to it is another story entirely.

UC 0096.
Argent Keel, an unofficial mercenary organization that is neither the Federation nor Zeon, has been commissioned to assassinate Azami Megine, a high-ranking Federation official. The mission was requested by the Federation, who cannot make public Azami's existence as a collusion with Zeon, but just before the fleet is to depart, it is none other than the Federation's Jegan unit that attacks them. In the midst of this extremely chaotic situation, a silver Gundam that Argent Keel secretly owns is released into space.

Director: Kenichi Suzuki

I don't think Yuzuki is the prettiest girl objectively because Sentai has a lot of beauties in the running but she has such an energy to her that I find very appealing

So which copy of the 0083 dvd/ blu ray has the original sound effects (that are apparently so much better than the newer release)?
Thanks

As far as the space linkup/stardust memory orchestra thing i think its just the name of the original song and the stardust orchestra is the inhouse band doing the "cover" for it.

Observe.

So yeah, but if you watched it before that youll notice it immediately.

This just seems like something you can apply in general to almost all of Gundam except the Gunpla-focused series and in a more general sense the eternal "you can't make an anti-war war movie" contradiction.

Plus I would really like to think most non-mouthbreathers would watch War in the Pocket and not take it as "throw away all your military themed toys you fucking loser" and more just the usual "toys are cool and all but remember actual war is still fucking shitty and ruins lives".

I actually just finished Gundam X and really enjoyed it aside from the Frost brothers getting more and more obnoxious as the series went on. You start really wanting to know what their deal is and end with wanting them just dealt with already.

I guess it just got annoying that their schtick was basically the same every single time they showed up, especially in the Earth parts of the show.

A giant Gundam yamakasa float created by puppeteer Isamu Tanaka was activated at the start of Hakata Gion Yamakasa, a Japanese festival in Hakata. The festival is famous for the large floats that are carried around the city.

Why would you remove stuff? That's just costing you views
>>
>>22731819
If it's always there, people get complacent and put off getting around to watch it which can lead to lower viewership that drops off over time. Some people literally never get around to it, it's common for people to have massive backlogs of media/games/things they want to try. If it's only available for a limited time then people who want to see it are forced to make the time to go see it while it's available, and are more likely to think about it and keep it in mind so they don't forget due to fear of missing out.

If given the choice between two things you want to watch, and option A is available forever while option B will become unavailable in a few days, guess which one you're going to prioritize?

Mentioned in one of the MG manuals iirc. It could have been in one of the Hard Graphs, but it was definitely a model kit mention, not in an anime, manga or sourcebook. If there are colonies orbiting Jupiter there are probably space stations or facilities at every planet in the solar system in UC, Pluto is just the one I remember aside from Mars having terrestrial facilities.

Long time lurker but I've switched PCs/laptops and lost a majority of my old /m/ pics especially the collages that recommended shows for everyone. Been on an AU Gundam binge lately since my friend's recently started going through UC; OVAs and Mainline series. Just finished watching Gundam X today and thoroughly enjoyed it. Planning on watching Turn-A very soon and pretty much everything else eventually. I'm up for any shows old or new (there was this isekai knight mecha that aired like 4-5 years ago and I forgot to keep up with it but it seemed like just "enjoyable air-time filler". The knight-mecha were CG iirc) Anybody have those old collages or some newer ones too? Just looking to watch more shows before I start up university classes again. Already watched Gundam: 0079, Zeta, 0083, 0080 WitP, CCA, Unicorn, Narrative, Build Fighters, Hathaway, G-Witch, IBO, 00, Wing, Victory and now X
Other mecha I can remember watching off the top of my head: Evangelion/Rebuilds, Blue Gender, Gargantia on Verdurous Planet, Gunbuster, Mazinkaiser, Code Geass, Casshern Sins, RahXephon, MuvLuv Eclipse?

Any recommendations, charts, or collages greatly appreciated
