>The grim reaper won't come when you're ready for him, Hathaway.
I did not understand what Amuro meant in this scene, forgive me for the possible autism.

Life comes at you fast. Death even faster.

>>23068696
It's just him telling Hathaway that he won't know when he's going to die.
It will make more sense later in the next movies or if you read the book.

What's to fucking understand? He wasn't being coy. How are you retards this stupid?

It's very true.
t. almost died once but didn't even feel that I was going to die
Maybe that's what he used to 'cheer him up' and get him out of that state of accepting his death?
>>23069148
I did say forgive me for the autism, anon. I understand the sentence but not really what he was trying to convey and why.
>>
>>23068696
In a broader sense, it means you won't be able to accomplish all the things you thought you would, and that you won't get everything you expected out of life.

>>23068696
Tomino was saying several things at once.

Amuro was trying to tell Hathaway to stop his reckless actions before he gets himself unexpectedly killed. It was a warning that the path he's on won't end well, and won't end when it thinks it will. Hathaway is operating under the assumption that he'll be able to keep fighting forever, when in reality he could die soom. Hathway's actions are hastening his death. Amuro wants Hathaway to stop living a murderous life, pick a woman, and settle down peacefully.

Considering Tomino wrote this novel at the end of the Cold War in the late 80s/early 90s with the fall of the Soviet Union.... it could be a commentary on how Soviet Leadership needs to stop resisting change, and to just naturally let communism fall in Russia. Because nothing was going to change it. It was too late. Tomino foresaw that the Soviet military will probably resist the fall of communism by using violence. He was right. Soviet Generals staged coups, killed people, and tried to keep Communism going in the early 90s. But it was pointless since they didn't have the support of the people, and the Soviet Citizens wanted change. So their Military Coup and resistance failed.

This is mirrored with Tomino saying that an age of peace had finally dawned on UC after the events of CCA. Neo Zeon had died with Char, all major Enemies were defeated, and there was no one left to fight. Peace had finally come to UC after almost 20 years of constant wars. Hathaway was trying forcefully stop peace by creating his own resistance movement, but the Universe wasnt having it. It's like trying to stop the rain or a storm. Peace was coming whether he liked it or not. That's why Hathaway died such a pointless and meaningless death. A warning to anyone that tried to mess with peace is going to die a pointless death.

Lastly, it was a warning to Bandai to stop trying to extend Gundam. Tomino was depressed and had extended UC Gundam as much as possible. But it's over now.

So the whole "the Federation is forcing people off Earth so rich old men can enjoy it alone" was added to the movie to make Hathaway seem less evil? Or something?

If he can come here to ask he can google what the grim reaper is.

>I did say forgive me for the autism, anon.
Well you're not forgiven.
>>
>>23070305
I believe Tomino also said the novel was a warning on how future generations might become if the current generations didn't stop fucking up. Hathaway isn't a good person at all, but it's also understandable he ended the way he did, it's a sad tale.
Tomino was right, considering the rise of extremism in all sides. It might be even more relevant now.

>>23070311
the federation really sucks too, but listen to the taxi driver.
Even if what the federation do is awful, most of the mass do not care about it, as it doesn't touch them. It's the same with many government right now.
Most of the world isn't rooting for Mafty. The movement is just a footnote.
>>
>>23070323
Most people really don't care one way or the other about whatever government they live in so long as the trash gets picked up.

>when you're ready for him
Shit translation. It's supposed to be "when you expect it".
>>
Hathaway did nothing wrong.
>>
>>23070323
>>23070319
>>23070305
So basically in the grand scheme of things, Hathaway's Mafty movement is nothing more than a flash in the pan?

I noticed lots of things were stilted or just plain "off" in the subs. Are there any better subs out there?

He's going to die. Straight up.
>>
>>23070774
I....fail to see the discernable difference. It's the same line.
>>
>>23070800
The first one implies that Hathawy believes he will die when he wants to while the second one implies that Hathaway is trying to kill himself.
>>
>>23070850
Right but both versions of the line effectively same the thing. Death doesn't come when you think it does. This is just splitting hairs.
>>
>>23070776
He killed Chen.
>>
>>23070856
How is it splitting hairs? Have you never dealt with subtext or double meanings before?

>Quess is made into a weapon by char
Hathaway, despite everything:

I think Hathaway was just retarded

I think he gives off an impression of somewhat being on the spectrum. What do you guys think?
>>
>>23068844
You'll learn when the final movie releases
>>
>>23070800
Stupid ESL he's supposed to be saying "people die when they least expect it" which is nothing like the shit subs
>>
>>23070928
She was trying to save him from Quess, who for all intents and purposes needed to be killed because there was no way in hell he was gonna talk her out of being the psychobitch she was.
>>
Who was best girl?
>>
>>23068696
Amuro was telling him that his movie trilogy was never getting finished.
