What the world needs, is a Robot Jox reboot.

What's funny is that the US already has its own O.G mecha series in Battletech/Mechwarrior, which has never had a live-action adaptation (or a decent TV series)

I like the writer but I have a feeling I am going to end up pretending this doesn't exist like the ScarJo Ghost in the Shell and just watching the source material.

Brian K Vaughan writing is actually really good news; Saga is a great American comic book and it gives me hope that maybe he's read the Gundam origin manga. An adaptation in that vein could be very successful.

As much as I want it to be awesome, I also won't be holding my breath. For one, the dude's never written a movie before. Talent in one arena of writing does not necessarily translate to another. Just look at Cormac McCarthy with The Counselor.

And no i dont want a live action from fucking hollywood. They will find a way to puss this move up, SJW it, fuck with the story an make is bitch made. So no stick with the animes, im holding out for a crossbone gundam

Hathaway is the son of the orig 0079 Gundam's White Base fortress space ship captain, so not exactly far removed from the 0079/Char's Counterattack era.

I read the Japanese Gundam creators are aware Americanized live action movies sucked, so they are going into this thing as creative partners since potentially big money is at stake and they don't want another Canadian live action Gundam stinker.

UC 105? hes 25 in that one.

It's not so far disconnected like G Gundam from Zeta Gundam from SEED. It's the same enough era where there's some continuity. Name two Gundam series that are more connected.

Any update on this?
