Any one seen this movie its based on anime star blazers.
I watched star blazers when i was 13 like 30 years ago.Its special effects are the best ive seen in a long time.They captured the old show in the latest movie 100%.
I could not fault the storyline at all.
The only downside is its all in japenese with english sub

I am pretty sure the spelling is wrong.

I have seen parts of the Japanese version (I have it all, just no time to watch it), and it is quite good for its time.

I prefer the "sequel"/remake called Thundersub where the ship and its crew is conducting guerilla warfare against the alien invaders, but unfortunately I can't find it anywhere. Once I found VHS copies of the spanish dubbed version, which wasn't very helpful, with me not speaking the language and all.

Are you referring to the original, BlueMak, or the 2010 live-action version?

I still want to see that film but I've yet to find a subbed DVD.

I had no idea there was a modern life action film about any of them. Thanks!

I was talking about the original anime.

Interesting. When I saw the title of the thread, I thought of this.

Japanese battleship Yamato - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quote:

Yamato (大和), named after the ancient Japanese Yamato Province, was the lead ship of the Yamato class of battleships that served with the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II. She and her sister ship, Musashi, were the heaviest and most powerfully armed battleships ever constructed, displacing 72,800 tonnes at full load and armed with nine 46 cm (18.1 inch) main guns. Neither, however, survived the war.

Amazing how a ship can have such a cultural legacy.

Oh, by the way, I've now seen the film.

AWESOME!
