Lynn Minmei is Chinese and Japanese, so why would they choose a non Asian actress to play her?

I am pretty sure that Robotech THE SHADOW CHRONICLES, will be finished after the release of the Live Action Robotech Movie!

Well that is what i have been led to belive, anyway…

Robotech?!?!

Get with it ‘Fans’ – Super Dimensional Fortress Macross – THE ORIGINAL storyline is far superior to Robotech modification.

I’m a fan of the genre, but SDF is the storyline they should follow.

Okay, somebody finally caught onto the fact that Lynn Minmei and Lynn Kyle are ASIAN. Toby needs to get to Jackie Chan to help him find a Chinese Pop princess and a martial arts champion to take these roles. Also, Gloval is Russian. Sean Connery!!! Are you kidding?? He’s far too old now and his accent is attrocious. “Hello-ski” Cause Sean doesn’t give a frickin’ toss, now does he?”

I agree that a live action movie will be interesting although i do have a bitter regret that harmony gold will not FINISH THE SHADOW CHRONICLES

here is the scoop. this movie is not something to put a small budget on by any means. the longer th!is movie is the better the story line must be deaper than that of the slandered american version. it must live up to what a true robotech and mecha fan desires. this movie if successful (not could) will open up to sequals. this could definitely become like the starwars franchise, even bigger! this is not a cartoon we are talking about here this is a live action movie. the script MUST be as true to Macross as possible. please dont ruin this. im watching robotech right now. i joined the military to study technology that will give me an insight on a future career in mechanical engineering. more specifically towards Mecha. i cried at the end of the macross saga. i was 10 at the time and i have not looked back since. i expect a lot from this movie and i expect it to be done right.

And….I repeat….absolutely no Tobey Maguire for Rick..And to Hollywood…Do not waste this once in a lifetime chance for this great cartoon. We need to make it as Huge as any great movie and if possibly be the best…To the producers, Dont ruin it by making a low cost under the radar movie (e.g. dragonball evolution. etc).

Sean Connery for Gloval.
Scarlett Johansson for Miriya
Viggo Mortensen as Roy
Halle Berry as Claudia Grant.—Best Choice
Megan Fox/Gianna should be minmei.
Rick —-anyone but not “Tobey Maguire”..we need a serious,fierce, hard actor
The Rock as Breetai
Johnny Depp as max

To pull off this movie… a cast of superstars may not always be the best idea.
Sometimes unknowns do better than well known actors. Be that as it may…
my selection for cast goes as followed:

Rick Hunter…Jusitn Chatwin ( ok choice )
Roy Fokker… Neal McDonough
Minmei… Charice Pempengco
Cpt. Gloval … Daniel Day Lewis
Claudia Grant… Khandi Alexander (CSI)
Lisa Hayes… Leelee Sobieski (eh.. ok)
Max Sterling…Jared Leto ( with a pair of blue tinted glasses and hair)
Miriya… Alicia Witt(with green hair.. sure)
Breetai… Clive Owen
Exedore… Steve Buscemi
Dolza… Tommy “Tiny” Lister
Dr. Emil Lang… Ian Holms (LOTR)
T.R. Edwards…Jason Isaacs (Malfoy’s Dad)(short part)
Ben Dixon… Seth rogen or Jason Segal
Tommy Luan(Mayor)… Danny Devito ( LoL )

yeah……….it could be,but if u wanna put a good actor i think rick hunter should be played by the guy who played in speed racer,whats his name?

Rather take the guy who played Frodo in LOTR. That took serious acting, not just swishing a stick around and seeing stars. And, when comparing to Rick hunter, he actually looks a lot more like Rick than the Harry goPotty – kid.

I think I’ve said it before, but I’ve always seen Gary Oldman as Gloval or how about Sam Neill.

Sean Connery! he has the accent and the look especially after The Hunt for Red October.

Finally, I have been dreaming about a Robotech movie for years.

I think the perfect actor for Commander Gloval would be Edward James Olmos.

your right about that. Oh I think Rachael Mc Adams would be a great Lisa Hayes.
