I have some fond memories form my childhood of coming home after school and watching Robotech on TV. Back then I had no idea what anime was, but I had some of the toys and loved the show.
Sci Fi Channel is reporting that Warner Brothers Pictures has obtained the rights to turn Robotech into a live action movie. Toby Maguire of Spider-Man fame has signed on to produce the film through his new production company called Maguire Entertainment.
Sci Fi is also reporting that Warner Brothers intends to turn Robotech into a franchise to compete with Transformers and that Toby Maguire is possibly going to play the lead role in the film. I have to say I much preferred Robotech to Transformers when I was young, here’s hoping Warner Brothers does Robotech proud.

Nice article. Yes, I agree that Robotech was much more worth watching than Transformers. I hope they make the movie something that will live upto the high standards set by the series.
i can’t wait to see the robotech movie, i’d like the cartoon on tv when i was young and i still do now, it has good story, so humanity and much-much more, so when i can see the action???
That would be wonderfull if they make a live action Robotech movie. Lets hope it goes through and we can soon see some sneak peeks of the movie in production.
