In production with a 2010 release date. This is probably Toby  
Maguire's production. Yes, Spiderman owns the US movie rights. Which  
makes the rights issue in the US even more complicated than it was.  
Still, I'm happy to see a real production company attempt it, with  
today's CGI it ought to be a gorgeous festival of mecha and explosions.

For something actually GOOD in this vein, I recommend Macross  
Frontier, 25 episodes of very good artwork, terrific story and good  
music. It's Macross, so singing DOES save the galaxy (again), and the  
fighters do transform, but ti's an excellent update of the original  
story. Not a re-make, it's in the same continuity as the original.  
Frontier is just a similar story with better writing.
