Yup, confirmed personally. Everything Macross-branded, from Macross II all the way through the Delta movies, is there:Macross II Macross Flashback 2012 Macross Plus (series and movie versions) Macross 7 (including The Galaxy Is Calling Me and Dynamite) Macross Zero (the prequel miniseries) Macross Frontier (with all three movies: False Songstress, Wings of Farewell and Labyrinth of Souls) Macross FB7 (a kind of Frontier / 7 crossover) Macross Delta (with Passionate Walkure, Zettai Live) Harmony Gold still holds onto the original Super Dimensional Fortress Macross and the movie, but Disney may come in with an elbow drop from the top rope if these do well... -- Jen Dantes - Darth Mephron Haberdasher to Androids, Dark Lady of Sith Tech Support.

LAST EDITED ON Jan-14-25 AT 11:03 AM (EST) Is it only the Hulu side of D+? Because I can VPN into US just fine, but that requires an American account. Edit: actually, turns out it's on Canadian and has been for months, cool.That said though holy crap. You know, Disney just buying it out from under HG might be the good timeline. Which goes to show just how shit HG is. EDIT: Wait what the shit? THREE Frontier movies??? Edit of edit: oh a 14 minute special, okay~

>Macross Zero (the prequel miniseries) I was wondering if that series would be included in the distro deal because it wasn't listed when the announcement was originally made. >Harmony Gold still holds onto the original Super Dimensional Fortress >Macross and the movie, but Disney may come in with an elbow drop from >the top rope if these do well... HG's still delusional enough to believe that there's a market out there for a big-budget live-action Robotech film.

They’ve been drip-feeding Robotech media since the mid 90s specifically to keep the weirdos happy and hopeful for a proper resurgence. And also to pay rent on their realty office.And live rats to feed their lawyers.

I personally believe there is a market for a film of that sort, just HG isn't capable of pulling it off. Granted, I'm still holding out hope for a big Game of Thrones-style Battletech series, so I may also be an idiot. "This is probably a stupid question, but . . ."

I've even got a timeline of how I'd do it, not that I know how to sell a pitch. It'd be a Davion-centric POV from the 3rd Succession war up to the end of the FC Civil War- I have no idea how to touch the Jihad and later stuff, but there'd be room to do a spinoff about Kerensky and the fall of the Star League."This is probably a stupid question, but . . ."

I have Illustrator, I can make an "if" that's just shy of 19 feet tall, and I still don't think that's big enough! -------------- Lime2K The One True Evil Overlord (Yes, I did have to look up what the max page size is, I've never come anywhere close to running into it in my usage to date.)
