Never seen Seed and from the clips I have seen it looked underwhelming. Proving you can have too many Gundams.

Seed is what happens when this wow-cool-robot guy decides to make his own Gundam

[-] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago

It had its moments; that rush of excitement when the hero shows up at the last minute to save the day, or breaks through their inner limits type shit. But I don't remember the plot enough to be interested in this at the moment. That was many, many years ago.

have also never seen seed and i never will. gonna watch this movie though!

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 5 points 11 months ago

I hope they have at least two "Nichol was 15 and he loved to play the piano" flashbacks

[-] CriticalOtaku@hexbear.net 5 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

The only way this movie will be good is if it's entire runtime is nothing but piano flashbacks

Fuck it I'll buy an RG Strike Freedom if the movie is just one long continuous flashback about Nicol

the plot clearly focuses on kira getting cucked, what other fukuda-isms will we find in this film?

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 5 points 11 months ago

I'm hoping it's a really shit adaptation of CCA, kind of like how Destiny half-assedly pinched stuff from Zeta. Maybe bring back Sai Argyle (the one who Kira cucked) like they did with Cameron Bloom.

That, and I hope they make an English VA dub, and bring back the Ed, Edd, and Eddy guy for Kira. Just being able to imagine Kira Yamato say "I'm like a woodpecker, except for dirt" really completes the experience.

if they do cca but instead of char, a character who's been a presence for 140 episodes of tv before that point they have a new guy because they killed most of their chars and the rest are too good* and in love with kira to ever do something like that it would be funny

*the show thinks neo roanoke is good, right? i haven't seen it, but my understanding is all the genocide was fine don't worry about it

[-] CriticalOtaku@hexbear.net 5 points 10 months ago

There technically are already two Char clones but Athrun is so firmly established as Kira's Shonen Rival/Best Friend and the other guy's dead so we need a brand new character with blond hair.

[-] Cromalin@hexbear.net 5 points 10 months ago

ok there's rau le creuset, athrun, and then neo roanoke in destiny? i thought there were more for some reason

whatever i don't need to think about gundam seed this much

[-] CriticalOtaku@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago

I never watched Destiny so I had no idea there was another one, I don't hate myself that much to find out lol

Maybe there's a natural law where the given quality of a Gundam series equals the inverse square root of Char clones in the series

[-] CriticalOtaku@hexbear.net 3 points 10 months ago

Yeah fair, we got a bunch with that one

[-] Cromalin@hexbear.net 2 points 10 months ago

spoilerthe stuff with gaelio and mcgillis all fucking rules

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 3 points 10 months ago

Yeah, they thought bringing back Mu La Flaga with amnesia as another Char clone was a good idea lol

Split the difference with George Glenn returning as a DOME-like character who's driving the asteroid into Earth.

*the show thinks neo roanoke is good, right? i haven't seen it, but my understanding is all the genocide was fine don't worry about it

My head hurts just trying to remember what light it tries to cast on Neo Roanoke lol. I don't think they thought too hard about anything except the wow-cool-robot

[-] Cromalin@hexbear.net 2 points 11 months ago

the most important thing is that i'll have a bad time with the movie, all else comes second tbh

[-] CriticalOtaku@hexbear.net 3 points 10 months ago

Go in with enough stimulants to turn off your cognitive functions and just vibe to the pretty lightshow

[-] DifferenceEngine@hexbear.net 4 points 11 months ago

Jackson is not wrong and going to torture myself by seeing it in a theater anyway

[-] Cromalin@hexbear.net 4 points 11 months ago

i will be there no matter what

[-] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 3 points 10 months ago

The main thing I remember about Gundam Seed is that I got drunk for the first tine with friends the day the dub premiered in amerikkka
