Space Battleship Yamato (2010)

Just saw the live action film (with English subs). It was horrendous!

I am someone who loved the cartoon as a kid.

Which was supposedly more inspired by New Galatica and JJ Trek than the space battleship yamato series of films and tv shows that are now a part of legend. Though the new animated film was a letdown as well and bombed in japan.

I have yet to see either the new animated film which i do have on DVD, and i have not yet gotten the new film. Of course neither has a USA release with subtitles. ENgrish subtitles even on the official import copies hardly counts in my honest opinion.

The new movie not sure it can be called a film was the first two seasons of the cartoon compressed into one film with changes made to the characters.

Which has the effect of being even more compressed than the first animated movie which was the warp speed version of season 1.

The new movie instead of being a planned trilogy like Disney had an idea for that was scrapped for starblazers and the USS Arizona.

Supposedly after the success in japan of the low budget Yamato live action there is supposed to be a Hollywood version in the planning, no word on if its Yamato Americanized or Starblazers. Either way if not for a soaring classical score and big special effects, it will most likely ruin peoples memories.
