I'd imagine that would get a bit painful after a while...

Oh and the characters where two-dimensional and the love subplot lackluster and awkward. But you watch it for the Mechas, damnit. I hope to acquire "Macross Frontier" (which is what I think this thread is really about) in some form this year, will be a nice treat. Hope it is longer than "Macross Zero" too, not just a five part miniseries.
Dizzy? Yes? Especially the Money shot for Eps. 5 (Shin's VF-0A Going Cobra with Nora's SV-51)... But Yukikaze was probably even more dizzy (since they were both being released at the same time, '03)
Macross of course is very important to be since it was the one motivation that got me into the Navy (When i was looking at the recruiters in '89, i was intially looking at the Army as friends in my clique were in the Corps and Navy at the time... still think i should have gone AF, with hind sight on the brain
All this macross discussion of course should drive Mark bonkers

THe decepticons are here! No..... I must call Optimus Prime. Actually, I believe that one of the original Transformers toys, Jetfire, used a Macross jet toy, because Hasbro was, and still is, too god damned lazy to design their toys themselves.

I know a guy who joined in hopes of serving on Enterprise.

Did he join recently? His hopes are slim, as Enterprise is supposed to be decomissioned in what, 5, maybe 6 years? They'll probably turn her into a museum after that. Not a chance she'll be sold for scrap, with all the buzz that comes with the name enterprise, and the fact that it was the first US nuclear powered carrier, making it pretty special. Although, they'll probably keep her in battle ready condition, just incase she is "drafted" in a future emergency. I think the Uss Missouri is still on the emergency roster. I should shut up now.

He's been out for quite some time. And it's about 7 years to decommission, yes. Missouri has been a memorial at Pearl Harbor for years,

Reminds me of one of Linsner's "Dawn" stories where there is a decommed carrier used by post apocalypse people as a home.
