Please?
I love Robotech/Macross too. But the last thing any of us wants is for Robotech to become anything like that crappy remake of Battlestar Galactica? It doesn't need to be a; dreary, miserable, ultra gritty but crappy, live-action anime with characters that are poor imitations of what came before.
WITH NEEDLESS/POINTLESS SEX CHANGES TO THE ORIGINAL MAIN CHARACTERS!!!
You really looking for the machine/mechas to be replaced by skinjobs? I think not!
If anything, a live action series needs to take examples from great sci-fi's like Dr Who, Outer Limits or Babylon 5!
Unless its done like that stick to the movies. Cos at least they'd be done without the threat of cancellation looming if the ratings bounce a little as all ratings do. Film at least has a start middle and end in sight. And a trilogy of 3 hour Robotech movies would be just dandy and great to see personally! Something i know is shared by Robotech fans on here.
A series today would suffer from only having so few episodes (13 at best) and lack of any real 'funds' to do it justice. Then there's casting actors who need to fit the parts etc. film might benefit better rather than television where miscasting a role, is a common error.
