Hopefully, it'll be as cheap as Ender's Game, but have more production values than Knights of the Zodiac.

Disappointed Brian K. Vaughn's Gundam isn't going to happen. One of my favorite comic authors so had a small amount of hope that the live action movie might be good.

Vaughan’s script, if the AX 2022 panel was any indication, sounded like bad 08th MS Team fanfic. Between that and Netflix getting away from big budget originals now that studios are recognizing them as the winners of the streaming wars and more likely to license them product, it’s not surprising they went back to the drawing board.

I’m in favor of anything as long as it isn’t that stereotypical 08th MS Team fanfic. Full adaptation of the original show, an AU loosely based on the original, a G Gundam movie with Donnie Yen as Master Asia, a Crossbone Gundam movie, just please, no more 08th derivatives.

I've heard decent things about Sweet Tooth, at least.
