How's everyone feel about this movie nowadays? I feel like I've started liking it more and more as time goes on. Might be due for a rewatch so I can figure out of I actually feel this way or if I just forgot things about it.
>>22903562It's abysmal dog shit
>>22903562It's kino
>>22903572Inb4 this triggers the bot go go off
>>22903562I love it to death but I can’t stop thinking about how Descartes was basically not in the movie despite getting a fair bit of marketing as some foil to Setsuna.
>>22903562Great horror movie but the conclusion is too abrupt
Is it true that the 00 Quanta was capable of wiping out the ELS but Setsuna just chose muh peace?
I like it. It does a good job of expanding on 00's themes. It's a bit rushed though. I know it's like a two hour movie, but it feels like it should have been a 4-6 part OVA with some longer episodes.
>>22903591Perhaps this has taught you not to pay attention to marketing. But yeah, he did seem like he was underused. I do think his presence was useful in a couple ways (demonstrating other innovators are showing up and some are kind of dicks and that brute strength is insufficient with the Gadelazza), but he felt tacked on rather than properly integrated.
>>22903562I like it, wish we got to see the ELS quanta in action though
>>2290360000 Qan T Full Saber, which packs a lot more weapons, could've theoretically fought the ELS force by itself if: 1) they didn't regenerate, and2) Setsuna could survive piloting for a whole week without rest.So it's not really feasible. But yeah, Setsuna used the Qan T's 'basic' loadout because he wanted to communicate.
>>22903591>>22903602I guess they put Descartes before the horse.

I've warmed up to it over the years. When I watched 00 as a kid I thought ending the series with a movie about ayys were dumb. Now that I'm no longer a hormonal edgelord, I thought the movie made for a fitting end for all the themes throughout 00 and the logical conclusion for those themes. >We've communicated with each other, now let's communicate with beings beyond humanity
>>22903562greatest movie of al time
>>22903562Love it. It's mostly a big dumb action movie, but it somehow manages to do one of the best portraits of aliens since Gunbuster, and I like that it did something meaningful with its resident newtype magic. Still listening to a few tracks from OST from time to time.
>>22903562From mech action stand point, the fighting scene is SEED TV tier bad.It's just beam/missile spam galore since everyone has GN bits now. Or if not, just some streaks of lights zipping across the screen.
this and the wings of goodbye traumatized me
>>22906961based
>>22903562It crossed the line that a Gundam series should never cross.
>>22914925It avoided having nipples and sex scenes?
>>22903562While I'm not really big on the ELS, the whole series was kinda leading up to it.The suit designs are some of the best in the franchise, special mentions to Zabanya, Harute, Brave and GNX-803T and the ELS GNX.The choreography is also incredible, the final battle sequence is easily rewatchable again and again.As long as you go into it knowing that the premise itself is kinda out there and don't let that spoil your mood it's a solid movie.Also special mention to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsBArUlQAuE for being such an incredible song.I get why people dislike the movie but I also feel like a lot of it very undeserved just because they took a risk.
>>22915014Quite partial to the GN-XIV myself.
>>22915016Yeah it's a great one. Oddly I'm more of a fan of the default color than the commander variant, the green just feels right. They did a good job fixing up how uninteresting the GNX-XIII and Ahead were from S2, that shoulder mounted shield goes a long way.
>>22915014>that soundtrackThose bells at 6:30... kenji Kawai is a god
>>22915019Same about the colour scheme. The variety of loadouts also helped keep them from being boring. The full loadout with the shield and the extra thrusters/particle tanks has a good heft to it; kind of reminds me of the better aspects of the GuAIZ or Stark Jegan.
