Ah. I had a sneaking suspicion that was the case, but I didn't want to speculate. I can't say that's an atypical reaction from TechTV fans.Chris wrote:As a hardcore TechTV fan, I can never forgive G4 for destroying that network, and especially for bastardizing The Screen Savers into Attack of the Show.SOCL wrote:Well, gee... I don't think it's so bad, especially since it's the really the only truly successful show of its kind on American television. I rather enjoy it, in fact.

On my side, no, because I'm alone when I record, and I use a headset rather than a mic. But there sometimes are people with Paul and Adam when they record.MBF-06/ZGMF-X12A Arbiter wrote:Got a question for you guys about the show.

I know you guys have already gone over Arcade games for Gundam but I had a question over a arcade Gundam game I found called Mobile Suit Gundam Spirit of Zeon Advance. I'm not sure if you know about it but it looks like its a stylized version of the Time Crisis 4 SD cabinet, but I'm guessing without the duck foot pad feature. But if they imported it is their a chance that it can open the door for maybe a game like Mobile Suit Gundam Bonds of the Battlefield to find its way to America . I was also wondering what your opinion is on getting more Gundam and other mecha games to get made for the U.S. to.

I still love the show. Been a fan since day one but my only thing is when Soul's mic is turned down when he talks and is given little to no air time. I think it is a little too early to give him the pink slip. But if you do I'll keep his legacy alive! Soul Bro Ryu!

Believe me, Soul Bro isn't going anywhere because he's the heart of the show. Aside from co-investing in the equipment used on the show, he edits it together and creates the final product. Bottom line, no Soul Bro, no Gundamn.wonton bob wrote:I still love the show.

I believe that topic is on the list, I know Soul Bro's wanted to talk about it. As a fan of the show, the comparsions of the show and movie would would be a good topic.Gai Daigoji wrote:Can you do a Nadesico segment, cause I heard the review on this ste for the movie was pretty controversial and It was my first mecha series.
Stay tuned and keep them coming.

I'd like to do those eventually, but with Vifam I've only seen about a dozen episodes, so not having seen it all, I couldn't comment on it as a whole.Kavik Ryx wrote:Have you guys considered doing a show spotlight for Mospeada, Southern Cross, or Vifam?

Another great episode guys! I love the longer length and would beg for every episode to be that long if it wasn't for the fact that it's a lot more work for you guys and you aren't getting paid. Have you guys thought about doing a show on the impact of Gundam on anime and Japanese culture? Or at least talk about some shows that make direct references to it like Sgt Frog/Keroro Gunso? Also, I love the new avatar Soul Bro!
Hey guys, I have an idea for a discussion point. I've debated the idea with some people I know who are also into Gundam but have yet to reach a concensus.
What makes a Gundam a Gundam?
Some people don't consider mobile suits like the EZ8 or ReGZ to be Gundams while others do (I do). Where's the dividing line between regular mobile suits and Gundams? I always used to think it was in the V-fin, but the EZ-8 ruined that theory. The most contentious mobile suit would be the GP04 since it started out as a Gundam, then was converted into the Gerbera, a Zeon-like mecha. I think that Barzam is also a mass-produced, de-Gundamed version of the MKII.
Any thoughts on this?

I don't know that there's much to discuss. Anyone who thinks the Ez8 isn't a Gundam is clearly wrong, as it has the Gundam name. Classification standards don't work either, so for all non-CE mobile suits, it simply comes down to this: a Gundam is whatever Sunrise says is a Gundam. I exclude CE because no mobile suit is officially called a "Gundam" in that world and the name is just a nickname used by only a few characters.

Its funny, I was thinking about steampunk the other day. I don't see why not.The Fowl Sorcerous wrote:I'd like to hear your thoughts on Steampunk in mecha anime; general opinions on the sub-genre, thoughts on specific shows stuff like that.

I don't know if you saw the post, but we've already set it up that when 00's first season ends, we're going to devote a segment in each episode to discussing every Gundam series, from the original up to STARGAZER. As for live action Gundam, we already discussed that a few episodes back, and the general consensus was that it's a franchise best suited for anime. Thanks for the suggestions though....keep them coming.eanetdude wrote:I would Like to hear your analysis of The 08th MS Team.
And perhaps which Gundam (that is a tv, ova or film) you would like to see made into a live action film. (done right, forget the horror of G-Saviour)
