Yoshiyuki Tomino Posts Video Message, Introducing Turn-A Gundam's American DVD Release
In a posting on the Gundam Global Portal page on Facebook, Tomino said,

I am Yoshiyuki Tomino, Director of Turn A Gundam.

Turn A is a giant robot anime, but it’s basically set in America. The series takes place in a version of America that has been restored, and has a pleasant, old-world feel; but at the same time, it’s a story that happens in the near future. In that sense, it’s a very mature piece of work. I will be glad if you can enjoy that aspect of it.

Animation is not only for children.

SIR BAY NEWS ALERT

Paramount Pictures Hires Four Writers for 'Brain Trust' of TRANSFORMERS Cinematic Universe

Robert Kirkman (The Walking Dead)
Art Marcum & Matt Holloway (Iron Man)
Zak Penn (Pacific Rim 2, The Incredible Hulk, X-Men: The Last Stand)
Jeff Pinkner (Lost)
We didn’t expect much carryover from previous films in the series, but it is interesting to note that Ehren Kruger‘s name isn’t on the list. Kruger is credited on three of the four existing films — all but the first — and his absence is among the details that might most signify a new direction.

SIR BAY NEWS ALERT
Transformers Cinemayhem Universe Team Adds Writers From 'Ant-Man' Re-write, Cybertron Origin Film Being Brainstormed
Andrew Barrer and Gabriel Ferrari, who both worked on the Ant-Man film after Edgar Wright left, have been hired onto the development team.

The report says that one idea being toyed with at the moment is called Transformers One, and is “more or less an origins story that takes place on Cybertron,” an idea which may have originally been pushed forward by Hasbro. Setting a movie on Cybertron means more licensing opportunities.
