A great thing to do for the 30th anniversary would be to give us a halfway decent Gundam series instead of the mediocre/terrible series they've been tossing out for the past... two decades, almost. That being said, I've already come to the realization that it's too much to hope for. Would be nice, though.

canceled permanently? That would bother me despite being a gundam fanatic....anyways...this looks interesting. It'll probably occur after Gundam 00 SS ends in March/April 2009

Here's to hoping for more UC OVAs. ZIEG ZEON!

I too am tired of the pretty-boy TEAM GUNDAM FORCE bs that plagued Wing, SEED, an 00. Sure Loran was a pretty boy to some degree, but he made an adorable trap, probably one the hottest Gundam "women" ever.

They need to make ova's out of some of Kazuhisa Kondo's Gundam manga(and a few other related UC related manga by other authors .
I'd like to see 'Dogs of War' made into an ova. Also 'Char's deleted Affair' made into an ova.
They need to return back to the UC time era and tell us some more stories.

Rumours abound of an animated version of Unicorn, but personally I'd prefer a Turn-A prequel, or an animated version of Gaia Gear.

Whilst Seed was painfully boring, Wing and 00 seem to get undeservedly short stick. Surely character designs alone shouldn't be a reason not to enjoy a series? Escaflowne serves as a perfect example.

A UC animated work is what i would like for the 30th anniversary. My wish is for: Char's Deleted Affair & Cross Bone Gundam.
And my impossible dream is for a ZZ Compilation that act as true sequel to the Z movies and cancels the medicore (IMO) Char's Counter Attack movie by inserting Amuro & Char's story in ZZ as it was originally planned.
Sadly, UC Gundam works don't appeal to many of current fandom

Source of rumor?
Gundam series don't even air on TV Tokyo, so yeah, odd rumor unless it's because Sunrise would be short of staff (but didn't they just talk about more Code Geass?).

I'd love to see the three novels Awakening, Escalation, Confrontation animated especially since Yoshiuiki Tomino himself wrote the novels.

You watch ZZ again and tell me that wouldn't have been a disaster. CCA was a masterpiece and a near perfect ending to the saga. Even Tomino doesn't remember what he would have done with Char in ZZ, but if it was what Glemy Toto was doing, that it would have been horrible.

Ugh, those novels were awful. Tomino is a great director, but not such a good writer.
I certainly look forward to what Sunrise does to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Gundam franchise. I just hope whatever it is, it's better than those terribly choppy Zeta Gundam movies and that it isn't an continuation of the CE era. 00 has somewhat redeemed the franchise, but they need to really punch it up to show the fans that Gundam can still be truly entertaining.
My hope? Some sort of Gryps Conflict side story involving the Karaba. Or Gundam Unicorn animated. Or a F91 series.

Like another poster mentioned, Unicorn is rumored to be the big project. Personally, I'd like to see "Gundam: The Origin" animated with Yas directing or an OVA that legitimately deals with opening weeks of the OYW (not the shit IGLOO slapped together).

I love 00! Nothin' wrong with some pretty boys piloting. Nowadays you can't get too far without running into a pretty boy in your action anime. I'm certainly not complaining!!

ZZ was the least one i liked of the UC Gundam shows, as for CCA i don't rate it that high and perhaps it's masterpiece to you and others as well but it's surly not for me (& perhaps others as well) especially that the Char i admired in the original 0079 & Zeta was ruined and made into a joke in CCA.

Well, the Gundam SEED sequel movie is being released next (sorry, this) year I hear. All I can say is, it had better not be all that is on offer.
