Mobile Suit Gundam Retool, J.J. Abrams style

Come one, come all! Comment here or on FF.net! All ages and sizes admitted, but only with parental supervision for the minors!

In the age of technological advancements, switching between mobile suits should be akin to switching between cars if not, as you say, switching between fighter planes. Even in cars, it's not like you can switch from a Honda Civic to a Dodge Viper or Ford Mustang on the fly and expect the same contr...

I must point out that if that's true, the GN Arms can hardly be considered a "Deus Ex Machina". They made several references to it in the episodes before it appeared, as well as making a point to show Lasse going out to retrieve it because they knew they would need it. It's a deus ex mach...

*sigh* Why do people assume that I'm bashing the whole series troll style whenever I point out actual facts that don't go with the common good? I'll probably regret this, but here goes. I REALLY wish people would think of Gundam 00 as its own series and not compare to others but since it keeps comin...

What's wrong with Ali knowing how to pilot the Zwei anyway? He has been implied to know a lot more than he appeared for quite a while. It's not like he randomly decided to take Zwei. He could track down where the Trinity were when they were supposed to be on the run. He chose to meet them after ano...

maybe it's a new version of the seatbelt? I don't see how it would be possible/effective to control a part of the gundam with your back. It could be a connector much like a key to a car. And before someone says anything about the Gundam's starting up without the pilot inside, remember that car keys...

The same way he can control an Enact? Lol. I don't think it takes much to sit down in a cockpit. Should be similar to sitting down in a carseat ...maybe without seatbelts. You misunderstand Jam. If you look at the back of the Trinitys' normal suits, you'll see that they have these little pods to th...

Surprising, I didn't realize my last post would get a personal response to it. And since the author took the time to address the post directly to me , especially notable since it was his first post, I suppose it would be within manners to reply. I'm betting you'd be the first to moan if this series ...

No, it proves that Setsuna still can't beat Ali in terms of raw skill. He's a better pilot than just about anyone on the show, and has more than held his own against Setsuna in the past. Give him a better machine and the skill difference comes into prominence. But remember that the Exia was up agai...

Well, on the bright side, at least two of the Thrones are still around and the Zwei certainly has a better pilot now. Too bad the Eins (which was my favorite) didn't get that much luck.

I have the same problem. I think it's because it feels like a 50 ep series crammed into a 25 ep series. I still think the pacing is great and the series is going well, but we miss out on stuff we'd have more time to get to know if it was a 50 ep series. The difference from other 26 ep series that f...

And I find it hilarious two Canadians are arguing about American policy. Why not? Every other nation and ethnicity likes to do it (as opposed to dealing with their own problems), and you guys are literally next door to us. Anyway, I also see the three world powers "merely upgrading" their...

I always thought of Guin as a typical beraucrat(sp?) myself, in that he'll attempt anything and everything to get his agenda across and yet doesn't consider the choices he's making, although in the long run I wouldn't call his agenda downright evil; it's not like he wanted to take over the Earth and...

Cockpit layout's different from a GN-X, and it's already been stated that all three superpowers would get 10 each. And seeing as how Ali is in no way affiliated to the Union, it's quite doubtful he'd get his hands on one.

I think even though Patrick is pretty much the Jerid (or worse) of 00, he still has to have some pretty decent pilot skill that he can be a test pilot for the Enact. I wouldn't call it necessary a character shield. For the first time against the Exia sure, as Setsuna wasn't out to kill him, and pos...

It's always possible that Ali isn't in a Throne. Lagna could have decided to give him a machine with the same cockpit layout. Not that it isn't a Gundam tradition to pull random one-shot mecha prototypes out of nowhere just so they can get blown up (which 00 has already done), but in this case I do...

Sorry about the gush of emotion I'm still getting off the adrenaline rush. I guess Alejandro is the mastermind after all. Oh and are we absolutely certain that Lockon is not KIA? 'Cause a guy I know who knows some guys who robbed some Sunrise officials said that Tomino made it a law that Gundam pil...

I don't know about the promotion, but him being in charge makes plenty of sense to me. If the GN-X pilots were chosen from the Overflag team, he would have immediate seniority over the other pilots. No he wouldn't. Immediate seniority would fall onto the next high ranking officer after Graham, a Ca...

Actually that was Misty, but she only mentioned it after Meowth tried to take a bite out of it.

Well, I have to admit that it was fairly refreshing to see the Fab Four pushed against a corner, this time in straight mobile suit combat no less. Too bad Lockon was the first to be taken down though, since he was the only Meister I really cared about. Ah well, at least he's not dea yet. Other than ...
