Even though the Major Spoilers Crew didn’t care very much for the Transformers 2 movie, giant robots are still a big deal for H’wood. Those of us who were around in 1984 and 1985 remember the tiger-shaped robots that connected to form Voltron. And for those of us who liked Voltron then, the news that a live action Voltron movie should have us jumping around like the boy down the street who got his hands on sugar for the first time.
Atlas Entertainment, the group behind Get Smart, are producing the film that hasn’t found a studio yet. Word is Warner Bros. is hot to trot on Robotech or some other giant robot franchise to counter Paramount’s Transformers hit. While it seems Hollywood is keen on robots, I wonder how many of you are interested in Voltron?
