Robotech Comes to the Big Screen

Yes, its coming. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Warner Bros. has purchased the rights to one of the most legendary anime series of the 1980s for a multiple movie series. Warner Bros. is planning on making it a summer blockbuster film in the vein of Transformers. Craig Zahler, a not as of yet proven writer, will handle writing the script while a director has yet to be assigned to the project.

Now, I know what you are thinking: Slacker, how can this staple series in animation be screwed up? Well, check this: the production of the movie series will be handled by Toby Maguire of Spider-man fame’s Maguire Entertainment, with rumors reporting that he will take a lead role in the film.

I don’t care who you are; if he is assigned the role of Rick Hunter someone is going to die.
