Remade for American Audiences?
I love this movie series, as well as the TV show it was based on and all of the U.C. Gundam series as well (War in a pocket, 08th MS team, Zeta Gundam, Stardust Memory, Char's Counterattack), and the show has a sizable following in the Anime community for those who have managed to be lucky enough to follow it from start to finish.
Watching the series makes me wonder if the movies were updated (reasonably, no total re-disigns like the BS they pulled with recent re-done movies that lose the feel of the originals totaly), done in total CG, and made for an American audience if it would be a possible hit. With the writers strike going on there will be a lack of new ideas flowing in for a while, and that might be a good thing considering some of the garbage we have been seeing coming out of California for the past few years, with just a few gems managing to get popped out between the streams of junk movies.
Of course there is always the possibility that if someone considered the idea, Yoshiyuki Tomino would not go along with it, or that some idiot producer or director would take the movie and use it as an excuse to exercise their 'artistic license', and by that I mean what Uwe Boll does to all of the movies he makes, turn them into mounds of you-know-what. But, make the movies too well and you have the problem of it going over audience's heads entirely, since the general public seems to enjoy simple pointless flicks like 'snakes on a plane'.
So what does everyone think?
