So guys...I was watching some videos of the Macross 30 game, and what in the world was Grace O' Conner doing with the SMS? She was the main villain of Frontier.

Could be based on the movie version?

Ok...I've heard people tell me something involving Grace in the movie...what happens?

She's a much more sympathetic character. She seems to genuinely care about Sheryl, and is manipulated by the real big bad rather than being outright evil like she is in the series.

Ooooh...so THAT'S why people love her. So...which is cannon?

From what I've heard the movie is much more positive, since Micheal doesn't die. It also has the YF-29...whose DX toy has evaded me...the cheapest I've seen it was 24,000 on Mandarake...

No idea. Personally I prefer the series events to the movies.

That's true but ehhh..no, not really :lol Alto goes missing and Sheryl ends up in a coma

I do like that Micheal lives...his death in the series bummed me the heck out...

:(

Normally the TV series is canon, but Kawamori likes to integrate movie designs later on into the canon.

For example, DYRL? is said to be a movie within the Macross universe about the 1st Space War(Space War 1). The VF-1's used are later versions(later block numbers). Also, Exedol's appearance in Macross 7 mirrors his appearance in DYRL?, as an overgrown non-micronized Zentraedi who looks much more alien.

The Macross F movies left more of an overall emotional impact I believe, since the 2nd movie was more symbolic and tied up the love triangle(which was never resolved in the series).The movies are a retelling, not so much sequels.

Hm...Alright...I'll probably watch the movies at some point. Is it just me? Or did Hulu take down the dub of Macross? I was watching it a few months ago, and now I can't find it anywhere. That reminds me...I have GOT to get back to 7.

The movies are definitely worth watching for the spectacle of it all, even if you don't enjoy the story as much the series version.
