Can't Really Kick

Aug 03, 2014 18:58


Over the course of my time here at LiveJournal, I've posted 55 times related to the show ROBOTECH.  Yes, you'd think I'd have had an interest in the Kickstarter for Harmony Gold's ROBOTECH ACADEMY project--

--And you'd be completely wrong.

The problem is that the concept of ROBOTECH is obsolete on a number of levels.  It does pain me to say that but it's true and I won't deny it.  Harmony Gold is being very stupid with their choices, everybody knows it, and Harmony Gold is being very stupid about that too.  It's a lot of playground bickering on all sides, and I'm staying the heck out of it because I know my opinion means nothing.

It's about fandom relationships more than anything else.  When a producer is intent on making everybody into one another's enemies, it's better to lay down your arms and walk away than to stick around for the crossfire.  This isn't worth my time.
