20 years and we get kicked in the nuts again.
The ONLY thing about Robotech that's worthwhile is the original television episodes (and the DVD releases thereof). Everything else has been an abomination.
The toys: sucked.
The fan club: sucked.
The videos: sucked.
The 1988 wall calender: actually had dates WRONG.
The books: get all bizarro with the Sentinels.
The Comico comics: worst of the 80s.
And then they give us this flaming turd to ice the cake? Every single thing in this movie is derivative: the credits are Star Trek The Next Generation, the Haydonites have HAL eyes, the space battles with capital ships ape every Gundam series ever made, Jean Grant looks like she was stolen from Silent Mobius, Ariel can zoom around and appear wherever she wants . . .
This is sooooooo typically Robotech.
