Yesterday, November 6th, I attended the American Film Market screening of SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO at the Criterion Theater in Santa Monica! As a long-time, hardcore YAMATO fan, I was extremely happy with the movie, which was subtitled in English. In a word, SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO is spectacular! Takashi Yamazaki takes the original story into amazing new directions, and marries it with the best elements of the previous entries in the franchise. Yamazaki does for YAMATO what J.J. Abrams did for STAR TREK!

Do you know if the film is getting some sort of limited US release beyond that screening? I'd really like to catch it on the big screen.

This was screened at the A merican Film Market, which is only open to film industry people — the event is to screen films for prospective buyers. This screening was hosting by TBS Films, with Sedic International, who are handling the overseas sales for SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO. I did hear that they are talking about having a public "World Premiere" in the near future — perhaps in Hollywood — which I do hope materializes. Meanwhile, it appears that several American companies are interesting in picking the film up for North American distribution... So, cross your fingers!

The Yamato Revival Movie had some awesome CGI in it, but I hear you, at the end it turned out to be even boring at times...
