Voltron movie news

Voltron Moves Into Turnaround - ComingSoon.net

i'm more excited for this then the Joe movie, for obvious reasons...unless of course they make the lions look nothing like the lions from the 80's like they've done with the Joe movie

yeah yeah, don't get your hopes up. Five robots that form a big robot to fight big monsters........... can anybody say "Power Rangers"? Just kidding. I'm glad to see it and this could be done right. I was a huge fan of the lions but they can keep the other one.

Don't worry, someone will look at the old cartoon and decide that the lions would all work better if they were all black and transformed into wisecracking robots who you can't tell apart. Either that, or they'll just give it to Joel Schoemaker. Pick you poison.

"Marks' take is described as a post-apocalyptic tale set in New York City and Mexico, where five survivors of an alien attack band together and end up piloting the five lion-shaped robots that combine and form the massive sword-wielding Voltron that helps battle Earth's invaders."

No. In the cartoon, Voltron was the ultimate "Defender of the Universe" a long time ago, but he was tricked, and scattered into five parts by that space witch lady. The planet he came from was then overrun by baddies until the new Voltron team came, dug up the lions and brought Voltron to life again. I don't believe the earth was ever even mentioned.

Why dose Hollywood think they have to change everything. That post-apocalyptic crap is so over done. That's your typical Hollywood answer to anything not made in this country. It like they think Americans are to dumb to understand what going on.

I have no interested in that movie


I hope the WB dose not screw up Robotech. Harmony gold did change the story a little bit from Macross they shouldn't have to do much to the plot.
