Nostalgia-FUU!!!

Nostalgia's a funny thing. Specifically the "Rose-Tinted Lenses" Phenomenon, and its effect on reboots of franchises. It's been something that's recently been twirling in the back of my head in the few moments where I haven't been focused on work

THundercats opening sequence is still really fucking awesome.
the show itself, not so much.

Honestly, I think stuff like Eva and Macross Plus, etc... those will stand the test of time. They were extremely well animated originally and dont really rely on technology... and they have great stories.

Everytime I watch Macross Plus and see the mecha and plane battle sequences with the trailing clouds, I'm struck by how amazing it is. It doesn't look old, it looks masterful.

I LOVE how they're rebooting the Eva franchise. It definitely helps that the first movie was an exact remake so we can all get back into it before it branches off completely. I can't wait for the next movies @___@ argh it's going to take so long!
