Movie was decent for what it was. It has a very clear goal, which is to present mech porn, and it's very pretty mech porn (if kinda vanilla funnels-and-giant-beams fare). It also rounds out the 00 storyline by finally presenting the 'dialogues that are to come' that Aeolia founded CB for, and does so more or less in keeping with how S2 went.

People give it crap mainly because GIANT SPACE FLOWER. But there was also Setsuna pulling every Goku in the book: runs up against antagonist but doesn't have enough training yet, suddenly suffers debilitating condition and doesn't recover until the end of the arc, mental trip through all his friends and the whole life of earth to appreciate what's at stake, suddenly recovers and gets the training needed to swoop in and save the day as an even more super-human. And if that wasn't lazy enough, they avoid setting up a new faction or space war by simply introducing a shape-shifting alien species to serve as the faceless mobile suit cannon fodder for increasingly ludicrous beam spam displays from the Gundams. Not to mention bringing back Ribbons but not really just for the brief and ultimately pointless shock value.

I guess one way to think of it is like mainline UC. You have a first entry that's generally sound and well-liked (S1, 0079), followed by weaker stuff that meanders and cranks up the magical powers (Z/ZZ), and rounded off with a movie that's mostly spectacle and concludes in a physics-breaking ultimate magic. If you can suspend your disbelief enough to accept the middle part, the movie isn't so bad, but the original entry was still stronger on its own.

I didn't mind the giant space flower or anything, it was more like the movie wasted a lot of time on bullshit like Descarte Shaman and showing what everyone was doing post-season 2 that in the end didn't really matter all that much and simply made the entire last act of the movie feel rushed as fuck. They had like an OVAs/2 movies worth of material and just didn't take advantage.
>>
>>14081644
Agreed. S1 was amazing. The last few episodes were fucking intense rides.

Design wise: The designs on S1 are superior to the S2 ones. The movie designs are better than the S2 ones because they go back to the S1 roots.

She wasn't actually a bad character until S2.
In S1 she was this cute, rich celebrity who had a mysterious agenda of her own going on and was tacitly funding CB. Her presence was never offensive, her character was pretty cute, and her motives were unknown enough for speculation.

Then S2 rolls around, she gets that fugly as fuck haircut, and her motives turn out to be blindingly fucking stupid. And then she does nothing and dies.
>>
>>14081894

Watching 00 for the first time after IBO, part of why I like it so much may be that the characters are slightly older. Setsuna's the youngest pilot and it's seen as remarkable, every other major member of Celestial Being that I've seen so far is at least old enough to vote. It's a welcome break from "Hooray, child soldiers!"

I thought mecha porn was pretty weak. The ELS just don't make for interesting combat. Having enemies that just chase you and don't allow for close combat gets boring, especially when it was already done with the Gaga troops. How the ELS just explode instead of having any damage deformation doesn't help either.

>>
>>14081822
I read something along those lines around the time the S2 designs were unveiled.

Something about the PlaMo overlords wanting designs with simpler lines to make cheaper model kits.

While simple is NOT per se bad, the S2 designs came across as uninspired and bland in relation to their predecessors. It doesn't mean you cannot like them, as many here sure do. It simply means that they are not as good as the ones that came before

They're foreshadowed in the same way that SEED foreshadowed space whales. It was a vague aspiration for the wonders humans would find when they they eventually explore the cosmos. There wasn't any reasonable expectation we'd see it (and a lot of people didn't want to).

>>14082312
00 Gundam is simpler than Exia---it's patently obvious just by looking at both.

00 Raiser has more lines but that does not mean it is necessarily more elaborate.

But you don't have to take my word for it:

>NISHIMURA: What was the process of designing 00 Gundam which appeared in the second season?

>EBIKAWA: I had to use fewer lines than I used with the Exia, because when the 00 and the 0 Raiser combined, the number of lines nearly doubles. The combination also changes the silhouette, so that was pretty complicated. But, as the titular robot of the show, I wanted to avoid making it look pathetic as a result of the reduced line count. So while the 00 may have a relatively simple impression, when it becomes the 00 Raiser, is has about the same number of lines as the Exia did.

This, pretty much. IBO is terrible, but it's mostly due to lack of anything happening. It's a passive awful that puts you to sleep. Try and AGE sit there and insult your intelligence to your face, bash you over the head with the nonsensicality of their poorly-constructed world and narrative.

Or to put it another way: IBO makes you watch it sit there and take a shit it never entirely passes, just kind of slowly pushing out, then pulling back in, then finally dropping the steamer right at the end. Try promises you the legit chocolate cake GBF baked you, then shows up with a plate of shit and smashes it in your face. AGE is just an infant that sprayed its shit at you, turning into a toddler that flings its shit at you, then a grown man who keeps flinging shit at you asking why you don't UNDERSTAND his scat fetish, before becoming an old man that just coats the walls in feces.

Garbage taste.

>>14081699
I liked the movie a lot. The ELS are suitably not generic humanoids, are clearly very different and alien to our *understanding* in both appearance and views, and the twist with Sherman just being a true Innovator who was teased as being an antagonist by Mizushima was a nice little bonus. The movie averted a lot of the cliches the franchise in general recycles and I liked everything about the conclusion, including the bit with Setsuna leaving to explore the universe while sort of mentally merged in permanent mind-meld mode with the ELS to find their new home while shit goes on after he leaves like the Human-Innovator War and by the time he comes back everything had been resolved again.

Like you said, the one real weak point was Setsuna being taken out earlier in the movie so that they could further build up the threat of the ELS and increase the drama and atmosphere of the threat to humanity but they didn't really have much wiggle room elsewhere to justify subverting and extending the situation.

It was, but the story was a lot weaker and meandering. For as pretty as it could be visually, it was a lot of flying around bumping into things just to ultimately make a rapid round trip and not really accomplish much of anything aside from accumulating a long-ass list of one-dimensional characters and one-off machines. SEED was a lot of retread and teen angst but it managed to tell a more complete story, as did 00S2.

You sound like an ass-blasted faggot with zero taste. All of those things are not only incredibly groundless but the shit with Neil's twin brother was revealed in 00's first season. On top of that worst Gundam designs?

You are cretin and sub-human with zero taste. Not even saying 00 has the best designs and there are some ugly ones in S2 but holy fuck Cherudim, 00 Gundam, Reborns, Garazzo, Gadessa, Arche, Seravee, etc...were fucking great. Also constantly over simplifying things doesn't make your shit valid.

>>14083746
Raphael is great.

>>14083748
Soma barely had a personality to begin with, so what did they erase? She was the generic obligatory soldier girl with an adopted father figure, her character was written well enough that she didn't bother anyone in how she was portrayed in either season 1 or season 2.

Graham is chilling with Billy in the epilogue, though. The whole point of Setsuna talking him down was so that he'd get over his gundam obsession and go live.

She was delusional enough to believe she could keep playing the Innovators, so going with Celestial Being would probably be seen as treason by Ribbons.

>>14083940
After the supposed destruction of Celestial Being and the Gundam Meisters in seaosn 1, Wang believed her best choice was switching to the winning side; that being the Innovades under Ribbons. Of course Ribbons saw through this and told her to fuck off and she was stuck on the sidelines waiting to try and prove herself but never getting to until Nena killed her.

A sad waste.
>>
>>14083974
I wouldn't be surprised if she had something to do with Celestial Being's betrayal at the end of S1. I mean, she was chummy with Ribbons at the beginning of S2 and he isn't the type of person who would accept anyone without some proof of their allegiance.
>>
>>14081550
I enjoyed S2. It wasn't perfect, and the blatantly evil A-Laws were really dumb, but it was overall a good season.
The movie was just fantastic though.

Wat. Setsuna didn't get a powerup at all.
If Veda/Tieria wasn't uploaded to the Qan[T], Setsuna would've had his brain fried again.
Then everyone would've died.
Also I disagree with your opinions on the ELS.
It was perfect that the opponent was an utterly unstoppable, non-humanoid entity, that could not be communicated with by normal means.

Too much sci-fi does the opposite all the time.

>>14084069
>blatantly evil A-Laws
Colonel Zinn was "blatantly" evil? The dude joined the A-Laws because Kathron or CB caused the death of his wife.

Not A-Laws as a whole, but certain members who reveled in destruction.
Like the fat dude in charge of the memento mori and the grey hair tactician whose job was originally clean up missions.

At least Ali was a great pilot and great to watch.

I kinda liked 00's approach to "newtypes" more than other series because it was never really shown as a "combat enhancement" and pilots, for the most part, still had to rely on their skills during skirmishes. For example, you could clearly see Setsuna's skills improve over the course of the series (even in spite of his machines).
>>
>>14084142
>The ELS were such shitty enemies. Having no close combat sucks :^)
I liked the ELS. I've noticed however 00 movie haters tend to be ESL, strange huh?

>>14084145
GNX-IV MG when?
>>
>>14084302
I'm ESL and I loved the movie. I think it has more to do with expectations and the fact that all the early trailers deliberately misled the audience into believing it was going to be a traditional Gundam story (a really bad move on Sunrise's part). Maybe they just didn't have the confidence to sell the whole "ayylmaos" idea?
>>
>>14084338
Aylmaos aren't what ruin the movie for me.
It's the terrible execution and how it just alternates between exposition dumps and beam spam sequences.
There's a bit of horror built up at the beginning that seems promising, but gets completely wiped away with an ayylmao exposition dump. The fights are also just flying and shooting with some kamikaze stronk tossed in.
>>
>>14084375
>The fights are also just flying and shooting with some kamikaze stronk tossed in.

That's literally the most effective way to deal with the T-1000 Zerg rush.
>>
>>14084385
Which is why the ELS make for a boring opponent.
We also saw the same shit with the innovade gaga troops already. It wasn't interesting in S2 or the movie.
>>
>>14084338
>on Sunrise's part
It wasn't on Sunrise. Mizushima and Kuroda had complete control again of the 00 franchise again and were allowed to have free reign to do what they wanted, which was to follow up on how they intended 00 to be which S2 was Sunrise getting execs to collar them.

>>14084375
I don't remember any long exposition or info dumps in the movie, and the only scenes that fit that bill were after the first fight in the movie and Setsuna going into WIA status. The stuff with Hal and Soma being chased around was alright but could've been better.
>>
>>14084398
Gagas were literally kamikazes. The ELS were the Borg meets Tyranids.
>>
>>14084399
I don't think directors have control over marketing. That's usually always a different department.
>>
I didn't become invested in 00 S1 until the last few episodes. Once the deaths began, I began to shed tears, and the Setsuna-Graham duel is one of my favorite exchanges ever.

In general, I liked S2 more than S1. It was only when Lockon Mk. II's girlfriend died anticlimactically that I started to dislike it. But all the anticlimax of S2's ending didn't outweigh the stuff I liked before that, like the AEU elevator takeover, Smirnov's farewell to his adopted daughter, and watching everyone deal with the losses from S1's finale, especially Feldt.

I thought the film helped correct the crappiness of S2's ending, completing character arcs that S2 left terribly unfinished, like Graham's.
>>
>>14084418
Marketing? I'm pretty certain Mizushima was the head director while Kuroda was the head writer. I just heard they wanted to bait people and really the only example of this is the Western fandom falling into the lure of believing Descrates was some new Ribbons tier big bad for the movie while nothing was alluded to the aliens directly.
>>
>>14084407
That makes zero difference, they're both handled the same way.
>>
>>14084427
My issue with S2 was once the 00 Gundam got the Raiser upgrade, there was literally almost nothing that changed the cycle of every fight until the final arc. Gundam Meisters and Celestial Being + Katharon struggling with the A-Laws and Innovades, they start losing, Setsuna shows up, overpowers and completely wrecks everything and everyone unless a plot point forces Setsuna away or the 00 Raiser from particpating in the fight.

Skittle Squadron, A-Laws, EFF, and so etc...they were all ineffective and terribly so against fighting against CB once Setsuna got his mid-season Gundam upgrade in season 2. I had no problem the MS desgins, hell both seasons have great Gundam and MS in general; I think I'm in the minority that likes Aheads a lot. Nor do I have an issue with the presentation of the story, I just don't like how 00 Raiser made everything easy mode because of every episode fight falls into the same cycle and it ruined the suspense.

Or how Wong/Wang (can't remember her name spelling for the life of me right now), was basically a traitor who couldn't go back to CB or get in good with the Innovades. Or how the ending fight for Ali was so half assed.

I don't think season 2 was as good as season 1 but it still had a lot of high points and I honestly consider S1 a 10 and S2 a 7, especially the final fight between Setsuna and Ribbons going from the Reborns vs 00 Raiser to 0 vs Exia R2.

>>14084437
They weren't though. Although you should understand the parallel there is that its for the viewers understanding as forthshadowing.
>>
>>14084427
Are you me? That's exactly my initial impressions of the show, though I've grown to appreciate even its weaker parts upon revisiting it.
>>
>>14084427
I actually liked the anticlimax of Anew's death, personally, though I can get why you wouldn't. It was the first time I actually liked Trust You at all as a song, it wound up becoming my second-favorite ED after Prototype.

I never understood what people saw in Neil to begin with. Sure, he was a cool guy with some anger issues but there was not much to him beyond that. Lyle was a much more interesting character in my opinion by virtue of having an actual arc and internal conflict he had to work through.

>>14084530
>Lyle is a laid back if somewhat jerk ass cynic and lady's man
>Neil is the obligatory big bro mentor/hero figure
>Neil can't let things go

I also don't like how people tend to claim Lyle was a Gary Stu when he struggled to replicate the same feats of marksmanship and shooting skills that his older brother kind of casually pulled off.
>>
>>14084559
My big problem with Lyle (or his character arc) was that his double-agent status with Katharon never became a problem. I thought it would have to have consequences, since he was making the effort to hide it. I can't think of how CB and Katharon would have a genuine conflict, but Lyle deceiving everyone could've added some drama somehow.
>>
>>14084604
I think it was ignored because there was no reason for it to lead anywhere in the first place. Both Katharon and CB have the same goals and end desires and the staff really couldn't honestly insert anything that would make bringing up his double agent status.

Plus I thought he was just hiding stuff to avoid being a replacement for his brother on CB, and maybe realized that Tieria is hard gay for him if he becomes literally Lockon 2.0
>>
>>14084604
That's just it - once they found out they just fell right in with Katharon because they were basically both fighting A-Laws for the greater good. Sumeragi should have known Lyle's connections (she seemed to forecast near everything else), but failing that, they should have just cozied up to them sooner.

... or maybe that was her plan all along...
>>
>>14084519
>Same haircut

I only remember some of the butthurt about Lyle being from Lassefags who were giddy he survived season 1's final fight with Alejandro and were hoping he'd be Neil's replacement.

>>
>>14084559
This. Lyle and Neil *ARE* Different people. Lyle still can't pull off some of Neil's crazier shit either, though he's better at close combat apparently than Neil was, but not as good a sniper.

There was obviously some tension there (I mean how could there not be after the shit CB pulled in S1), and they both wanted to work for the greater good, but in terms of their long-terms goals; Katharon wanted to be recognised by the world government whereas Celestial Being wanted to remain unaffiliated (i.e. vigilantes).

Basically, they weren't at odds but their goals were clearly different. Part of the drama for Lyle was choosing whose ideals he ultimately believed in more.

Lyle becomes a dramatically more effective pilot once CB recognizes that he has a different skillset from Neil and lets him start being in a position to use his gun kata. He's clearly much more comfortable with pistols, axes and funnels than he ever is sniping, and when he's allowed to just do that his effectiveness as a pilot shoots up tremendously to the point where he can hold out against Ali.
>>
>>14084764
The only real reason he beat Ali is because a) Ribbons was scared of someone of Ali's caliber as an ace having the Trans-AM system which the Arche is never installed with and b) Veda being wrested from Ribbons lead to his suit being shut off and Ali being forced to retreat while injured.
>>
>>14084793
Neither of them used Trans Am during the fight anyway. Plus Ali was getting wrecked by the time his system froze.

It doesn't have to have been a clear win on Lyle's part to be an impressive feat. He fought Ali in a tight enclosed space, where Ali has the advantage, and managed to not get his shit wrecked when up until then the only time Ali suffered any serious defeat was Setsuna pulling off his first Raiser Sword out of nowhere. Before then Ali could still handle Setsuna and Tieria at the same time without breaking a sweat. For Lyle to take him on alone in close quarters and survive, let alone win, is a testament to Lyle's skills as a pilot.

I am going to give you a pass on some of these dubious mentions. BUT:

pick one.

There is a reason why the RD of Cherudim is still available----and at a significant discount---despite being one of the earlier RD releases.

The real question is why nobody shot Gihren sooner. Deikun was a madman and Degwin did nothing wrong by assassinating him.

What is the difference between Gjallarhorn, the A-Laws, and the Titans?
>>
>>14086320
They were evil by acquiescence or complacency in following along with Zeon colony drops and mass murders. They both were in privileged positions of power within a dictatorial regime---and even related to the despots in charge.

Were they "nice" people with some personal virtues? Sure, but that does not absolve them from the evils they allowed to pass (and had the power---at least Dozle---to resist).

And I am, arguably, a Zeon fanboy.

>>14085418
I don't think the confined space was that advantageous to Ali, because it's not as simple as forcing a range fighter to melee. Arche is a bigass suit with a bigass sword that works really well when it can freely bob and swoop and dance around. Just standing there in a corridor limits the force it can put behind its swings because it can't just dart in some random direction then slam into you again. Lyle on the other hand has a smaller, slimmer suit and specializes in gun kata, so as long as he can sidestep that guillotine Ali's swinging around and keep peppering Arche from just out of reach, he'd eventually whittle him down.

Not him, but Cherudim is the weakest Gundam design, unless you count the red/black/orange blobs that pass as the Gundam Thrones.
>>
>>14086359

It's hard to go against family and Gihren would probably murder anyone who went against him. The colony drop, at least, originally had a military target and destroying Jaburo would have saved countless spacenoid lives. Garma was being groomed as a replacement for Gihren but wasn't ready to run things yet and Dozle supported him.

It also has four smaller beam sabers that require less room, especially if it can kick the enemy MS. Not saying you're wrong, but the sabers were a smarter option than the sword.
>>
>>14086409
Correct. It's a damn shame Al fucking sucks without Hal.

>>14086411

Gjallarhorn is also relatively benign, compared to the cacklingly evil A-Laws and Titans, at least in S1 of IBO.

>>14086434

Standards are low, but Gjallarhorn never fired on orbital cannon on civilians or gassed a colony. The worst they're guilty of is being somewhat corrupt and interfering with Earth politics.
>>
>>14086409
I never really understood the point of Al on the team. Like, okay, Setsuna is the melee guy, Lockon is the sharpshooter, and Tieria is the artillery (with a rarely-used oversight mechanism). And then Al is... what? Every single Gundam can fly and float on pixie dust, so they can do aerial just fine. Speed doesn't seem much of a factor either, since whatever they can't chase down they can just snipe. He can do bombing or missile spam but they've already got a giant ass artillery.

If Setsuna is Duel, Lockon is Buster, and Tieria is some kind of Aegis/Buster hybrid, does that make Kyrios Strike? An all-rounder just in case?
>>
>>14086465
He has midrange. Al himself is there because if he ever fucking bothers to work with Hal he become hands down the best pilot.
>>
>>14086415
>It's hard to go against papa and onii-san---they are soooo scary--- so not doing anything in face of patent evil is OKAY.

>>
>>14086434
Not the anon you so eloquently replied to.

But the fact that you or anyone else likes Cherudim does not change the fact that it is considered the bottom-tier design in an already subpar pool of designs [S2 Gundams].

Has gravity weighed down your soul to such lows?

He doesn't do anything immediately unique, true, but he's got the best speed, good saturation fire, and he's decent up close. Dynames/Arios is sort of the all-rounder that Exia/00 couldn't be due to its melee focus.

Gjallarhorn merely commits mass murder, colonial suppression, and represents a feudalistic aristocracy who suppress others. Also last I checked Momento Mori was more Innovades then A-Laws.

Aliens probably. or the ending where we don't know what happens to characters we spent 2 seasons with post ending. or how the main gundam the Qan[t] was nothing more than a delivery boy.
>>
>>14087159
Because 40 minutes of the first hour are fucking garbage.

Also, this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZKZ1mnuF30

The second hour is nearly perfect and I would like to have sex with Zabanya.

Qan[T] was pretty underwhelming too.
>>
>>14087165
I dont think the ending for the movie really needed to show what happened to the characters. The main threat was defeated and they accomplished their main goal. I never even liked the Quan[t] as a suit so it's role as Understandbot didn't really effect me.

>>14087180
How were the first 40 minutes garbage? Aliens doing alien things and fucking shit up was pretty entertaining.
>>
>>14087190
It's just kinda unnecessary and really fucks up the movie's momentum.

Basically everything from the Gadelezza and the accompanying crew's encounter are sufficient to set-up the threat. Everything else is really superfluous and lowers the overall quality by lacking a solid tonal center. The last hour has all the trappings of a great movie, but it's mired down by the meandering that comes before.
>>
>>14087180
>Because 40 minutes of the first hour are fucking garbage.
Eh its standard set up stuff the first 20 or so minutes, that much I have no issue with nor does it "ruin" the momentum that picks up AFTER and not before it.

>>14087165
I don't need to be spoon-fed as a viewer on what happens to CB or the rest of the cast after Setsuna leaves the ELS. They go about their lives, it didn't need to be foisted on us with more needless details.

>>
>>14087159
But I loved movie. Also disagreeing with some people here that the first hour was boring. It was needed to set up the ELS as an existential threat that can't be resolved by conventional means, and also catch up with where the characters were at after 2 years.

I can't really agree that it was better than CCA, but I definitely would hold it to be only second to it, at least as far as the very few Gundam movies out there are concerned.
