about that robotech movie
i remember being apprehensive (to say the least) when t'was announced that Tobey Maguire was going to play 'Peter Parker'...but since then, i can't imagine anyone else who could be Spiderman (with the fine exception of the daytime-soap that was Spidey3)...but now as "Rick Hunter"?
hell, just gimme a kickass transforming VF-1 Valkyrie and a Mospeada-bike and
all will be fine and dandy :) - it's about the vehicles and mechas anyways *LOL*
"Robotech is a science fiction franchise that was launched by an 85-episode adaptation of three different anime television series. Within the combined and edited story, Robotechnology refers to the scientific advances discovered in an alien starship that crashed on a South Pacific island. With this technology, Earth developed giant robotic machines or mecha (many of which were capable of transforming into vehicles) to fight three successive extraterrestrial invasions." [wiki]

"Spider-Man" franchise star Tobey Maguire is producing through his Maguire Entertainment and is eyeing the lead role in what the studio plans on being a tentpole sci-fi franchise ... We are very excited to bring 'Robotech' to the big screen," Maguire said. "There is a rich mythology that will be a great foundation for a sophisticated, smart and entertaining film."
