Theatrical poster for the limited US release of Robotech the movie, July 1986. A much maligned film, but rarely seen by it's detractors, this film is a rather scrambled edit of Megazone 23 and coupled with edits of footage of various episodes of Southern Cross. Despite claims the film was a box office bomb, in it's test market run in Dallas, Texas, it did exceptionally well despite it's run being limited to daytime matinee screenings in most theatres. However, financial issues plagued it's distributor Cannon Films. Cannon also did not understand the core market of the franchise. When teens and young adults showed up to screenings rather than children (which they expected the film to appeal to and had already bought TV commercial airtime during children's TV shows to market to), they panicked and pulled the film from distribution. Due to internal issues, the film was never remarketed or retooled for wider distribution. It was eventually released on home video in English in the UK and Belgium (with Dutch subtitles) and on laserdisc in English in the Netherlands, again with Dutch subtitles.
