No, it was a suggestion, maggie, nothing more, nothing less. If you feel very inclined to post here in the movie thread, then by all means, do so.



Well, there also seems to be even more spoilers floating around, but nothing that's major so far. @Yot-Chan, as I've said before, I'd imagine that it must've been quite a blast watching it on screen; makes me wish I could be there and join in the hype and experience. Well, best to wait for the blue ray and start flailing.

It's been one heck of an interesting day, with spoilers abound and answers being given - after waiting for four years, it's finally starting to sink in that it's officially over. There's still months to go before the release, but I'm going to miss this series so much, as it's the only series in a while that I've pretty much invested a fair bit of my time and attention to. I suppose it's time to start grabbing for tissues now.

- シェリルスパイ容疑で逮捕→戦時のスパイなので裁判なしで即死刑→アルカトラズｗへ収容
- 脱獄→シェリル＆オズマ＆ブレラ死亡？→緑告白

After she goes to Alcatraz, jailbreak?! If possible, could this be clarified? Or maybe this is completely false... ^^;

Nope, it happened. And it was AWESOME.

Spoiler for More detail:

Seriously, it's great. Alto's dressed like goth loli maid (purple lipstick included) with the same jets under his skirt that Sheryl had in the first movie. Sheryl's been in her jail cell writing the words to "Sayonara no Tsubasa." On the walls. In blood. Alto breaks in and rescues her.

Meanwhile, "Ranka Lee and Lovely Bomber" are performing, and Michael, dressed as Basara, starts taking out guards with a dart gun hidden in his guitar neck.

It's incredible.

[magnuskn]

Yeah, I am getting now more and more why it is more of a "enjoy the ride" than "enjoy the ending" experience. YMMV, of course, depending how much you enjoy bittersweet endings.

Seems that most of the movie was a blast to watch.

Oh, another question:

Spoiler for Ozma and stuff:

Did Ozma get over his overprotectiveness of Ranka? Or was it him who caused Sheryl to go to prison? If not, why was she sent there?

My God. The BD just can't come faster than at least 9 months, can't it? *_*

Well, nobody says that we'll never get an OVA for the TV series. So far, we don't know what will be the next thing for Macross.

[Lolipopo]

*gets to her knees and begin to pray*

Please, please please...

Spoiler:

I don't want Alto to be dead. I want a real ambiguous end for him, not a clear "Alto is dead but everyone is in deny" fo him.

He can't be dead when we finally get our Alto/Sheryl confession. He just can't ; Sheryl doesn't deserve that.

I so want to see this movie. I remember the time the serie ended (it was the same week CG ended BTW, that was one hell of a week !) with this weird ending. And While I was waiting for something BS, I wasn't waiting for this much.

Oh and Isamu <3

And ironically I think that's why mecha shows are my favorites. Thanks for eveyone who provided the spoilers, can't wait to see this movie, and Sheryl will always be my Queen <3

[Westlo]

Well I wouldn't expect anything more except for extended scenes in the Bluray, Kawamori is working on Aquarion Evol and than you have the 30th Anniversary project... hopefully 2 girls and 1 guy again.. fighter pilot girl pls Based God Kawamori

Spoiler for Ozma and stuff:

Get over his overprotectiveness? I'm not sure. He definitely wasn't around her much by the end... If he gave speech to that effect, I missed it.

As for Sheryl going to jail, it was all Leon's doing. He denounces everyone from Galaxy (i.e. everyone with implants) as a spy and has all of them executed. Tis is where Grace gets badly mangled (he keeps what's left of her in a glass case in his office for interrogation. Sheryl, denounced as "the False Diva" gets thrown in prison. Thankfully, when they show the news broadcast about it, the English words "DEATH PENALTY" are helpfully flashed on screen.

I can get behind this.

As long as Kawamori doesn't give interviews where he touts the movie ending as the "one true" ending, that is...

Spoiler for Michael and Klan:

Do you REALLY want me to answer this? It'll ruin not one, not two, but about THREE great scenes in the movie.

[magnuskn]

So, Yot, any sexy stuff between Sheryl and Alto?

Don't worry, go ahead


And, is there any references to the episode 22 ? Like magnuskn said, any "hot" scene ?

Thanks a lot man

Spoiler for Umm...:

No. He does, however, ogle Ranka in a bathing suit.

Spoiler for This ruins more than anything I could say about the ending. If you really want to enjoy the movie, please don't click it. Really.:

They...

Spoiler for I'm not joking. Don't spoil yourself!:

...survive.

[Westlo]

Hey yot did you see the aquarion 2 teaser that i heard is attached to the movie? actual animation?

Curses! And that with the amount of fanservice we got in movie one.

Speaking of that, how big is the fanservice factor in this one? Not that I am that much of a fan of the gratuitous boob-bounce but since it is not improbable that this will be the last time we can see Sheryl on-screen...

No. There was a trailer for Buddha, though, and that looks like it could be good. And an ad for May'n's new album. And a creepy promo against camrips with a funky, breakdancing, tuxedo-clad guy with a digital recorder for a head.

Movie 1 definitely had more.

No natto in this movie, either...
