Never seen Seed and from the clips I have seen it looked underwhelming. Proving you can have too many Gundams.

Seed is what happens when this 
guy decides to make his own Gundam
It had its moments; that rush of excitement when the hero shows up at the last minute to save the day, or breaks through their inner limits type shit. But I don't remember the plot enough to be interested in this at the moment. That was many, many years ago.
have also never seen seed and i never will. gonna watch this movie though!
I hope they have at least two "Nichol was 15 and he loved to play the piano" flashbacks
The only way this movie will be good is if it's entire runtime is nothing but piano flashbacks
Fuck it I'll buy an RG Strike Freedom if the movie is just one long continuous flashback about Nicol
the plot clearly focuses on kira getting cucked, what other fukuda-isms will we find in this film?
I'm hoping it's a really shit adaptation of CCA, kind of like how Destiny half-assedly pinched stuff from Zeta. Maybe bring back Sai Argyle (the one who Kira cucked) like they did with Cameron Bloom.
That, and I hope they make an English VA dub, and bring back the Ed, Edd, and Eddy guy for Kira. Just being able to imagine Kira Yamato say "I'm like a woodpecker, except for dirt" really completes the experience.
if they do cca but instead of char, a character who's been a presence for 140 episodes of tv before that point they have a new guy because they killed most of their chars and the rest are too good* and in love with kira to ever do something like that it would be funny
*the show thinks neo roanoke is good, right? i haven't seen it, but my understanding is all the genocide was fine don't worry about it
There technically are already two Char clones but Athrun is so firmly established as Kira's Shonen Rival/Best Friend and the other guy's dead so we need a brand new character with blond hair.
ok there's rau le creuset, athrun, and then neo roanoke in destiny? i thought there were more for some reason
whatever i don't need to think about gundam seed this much
I never watched Destiny so I had no idea there was another one, I don't hate myself that much to find out lol
Maybe there's a natural law where the given quality of a Gundam series equals the inverse square root of Char clones in the series
nah ibo was good
Yeah fair, we got a bunch with that one
spoiler
the stuff with gaelio and mcgillis all fucking rules
Yeah, they thought bringing back Mu La Flaga with amnesia as another Char clone was a good idea lol
Oh my god

Split the difference with George Glenn returning as a DOME-like character who's driving the asteroid into Earth.
*the show thinks neo roanoke is good, right? i haven't seen it, but my understanding is all the genocide was fine don't worry about it
My head hurts just trying to remember what light it tries to cast on Neo Roanoke lol. I don't think they thought too hard about anything except the
the most important thing is that i'll have a bad time with the movie, all else comes second tbh
Go in with enough stimulants to turn off your cognitive functions and just vibe to the pretty lightshow
Jackson is not wrong and going to torture myself by seeing it in a theater anyway
i will be there no matter what
The main thing I remember about Gundam Seed is that I got drunk for the first tine with friends the day the dub premiered in
