It’s like music to my ears.
In the year 2199, Earth was under severe attack from the mysterious planet Gamilon. Gamilon planet bombs covered the Earth with radioactive pollution, and as a result, in one year’s time Earth will be unlivable. But on the planet Iscandar there is a machine that can remove the radioactivity. Queen Starsha offers it to the people of Earth. A team of Star Blazers called the Star Force undertakes the perilous journey. But can the Star Force travel 148,000 light years and back in just one Earth year?
The live action version of Space Battleship Yamato is already showing in Japan. Obviously, I can’t comment on the dialog since it’s in Japanese, but it looks impressively cool!
Will we ever see it here in the USA? I remain cautiously optimistic.
Anyway, this is the opening battle between the Earth Defense Force and the Gamilons.
Also, here’s the Yamato breaking free from the dried ocean floor for its maiden voyage!

A theatrical release would be a pleasant surprise, but I am betting we are going to have to wait for DVD.

Shapeships burn because they are made out of wood.

This would make a great popcorn movie at home… can’t wait to see when we might get a crack at a DVD release.
