Anyone seen the trailor for Stealth?
http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/stealth/index.html

Feels a bit like Macross Plus(pretty close plane designs), but more genearic and predicable and stupied

Oh and i figured i should nominate D.E.B.S. http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/d.e.b.s./index.html
as another reason why American Movies are going down the crapper

I thought the same thing when I saw that trailer when I saw constantine. It reminded me of macross plus to.

The movie will not do well but looks cool.

Not particularly original. The concept has been done several times before (before Macross Plus), but I agree that the plane designs remind me of Macross...

Yeah, similar plane designs as Macross Plus, but the plot seems like an exact copy of Yukikaze.

I dunno. I think it is more than the plane designs that is very reminiscent of Macross PLus.

Macross Plus? Maybe a little. Yukikaze? Too recent to have been an influence on this production.

Anyway, Japanese animators didn't invent the concept of A.I. going haywire.

...

Anyway, I suppose I could see a bit of Macross Plus influence there, but more than anything else, this film looks like "Top Gun + Terminator/ every other Computers vs Man flick out there".

Well, what do you expect from the same director of The Fast and the Furious and XXX?

I don't.

I see a similarity, but the exact scenario of robot planes going haywire has been done several times in the North American movie industry already. Unfortunately, I can't, for the life of me, remember the names of either of the two movies that I've seen with that topic.

Don't ya hate it when amazing visuals are wasted on poorly formulated films? Wink *cough*Final Fantasy: Spirits Within*cough*

Well, I won't judge it until I see it... or until Rotten Tomatoes gives it a 10% or lower...

Wasn't Foxfire kind of like that? It's been ages since I've seen it and I'm not sure if I've seen it all of the way through.

EDIT: Oh, sorry, Firefox, the Clint Eastwood movie from 1982.
