Feels like these anime live-action adaptations are always rotating hands, being in development hell for years (Think the AKIRA movie, or GITS and Bebop live actions before they were actually finished) But Robotech especially is a unique case, since its legal rights are so complicated. But now that that's settled - Maybe, just maybe, we'll see this thing get finished.
Wouldn't it be rich if this got heavily re-edited into a Macross movie for the Japanese market? Talk about the shoe being on the other foot...
Anyway, I'll keep an eye on this.
