I've been watching Mobile Suit Gundam - the original. It's better than I expected, with some thoughtful universe-building, although the distance in time means I'm not always sure how plot events are supposed to be taken; I'm pretty sure the casual sexism was a condition of the time & place, but I'm not sure whether I'm supposed to regard Amuro as a prat who seems determined to prove every characters' criticism of him right, nor whether Char is an anti-hero or just a loathsome backstabbing toad. Regardless, interesting to see one of the grandaddies of all mecha anime.
There was a recent discussion considering the idea of a monthly Book (later expanded to movies, links, etc) thread. The poll was pretty unanimous that this was A Good Idea (tm). The past two threads have had a decent amount of activity, so let's keep going.
