UN Spacy Posted November 21, 2010 Posted November 21, 2010 I sent an e-mail to the folks at New People (SF Japantown). Hopefully they plan on showing the movie there. Quote
UN Spacy Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 It looks like Tim Eldred has one of the very first English reviews of the movie. http://www.otakuusamagazine.com/SearchAudience/News1/Space_Battleship_Yamato_Live_Action_Review_3908.aspx Quote
Dobber Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 kind of a criptic review...he doesn't seem to tell what he thought of the film. Are there any images of the new Black tiger and Cosmo Zero? I'd love to see them. Chris Quote
mondamoto Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 You can see the Cosmo Tiger and I believe the Cosmo Zero also another earth ship courtesy of Tim Eldred on the Yamato mailing list http://webprint.epson.jp/mypage/pickup/yamato/yamato.jsp#contents_nenga Also here is a look at some of the props which include a look at the Gamelon Fighters http://www.therpf.com/f45/space-battleship-yamato-93785/ Quote

Why? Why did they have to f**k with the original designs? They look all clunky and boxy. Meh... Edited November 23, 2010 by reddsun1 Quote
Dynaman Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 NNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Why? Why did they have to f**k with the original designs? They look all clunky and boxy. Meh... They are boxy, but Yuki is lovely, and I ask you, does anything else really matter after that? Quote
Keith Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 NNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Why? Why did they have to f**k with the original designs? They look all clunky and boxy. Meh... Because they probably couldn't get Nishizaki to agree not to mess with production unless Matsumoto also wasn't involved. Quote
reddsun1 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 They are boxy, but Yuki is lovely, and I ask you, does anything else really matter after that? Well, you've got a point, there... Quote
UN Spacy Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 They are boxy, but Yuki is lovely, and I ask you, does anything else really matter after that? Agreed. The Yamato looks perfect. Yuki is . The Yukikaze, Cosmo Zero, and Cosmo Tiger look good as well. But WHY no sight or sound of Dessler?!? They keeping him under wraps. Quote
AcroRay Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 IQ9/Analyzer looks amazing, too. And kicks some ass... Quote
taksraven Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 IQ9/Analyzer looks amazing, too. And kicks some ass... How the hell did you get to see IQ9? Did I miss some pics?? Quote

mondamoto Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 This is also courtesy Tim Eldred on the Yamato Mailing list. http://dogatch.jp/cinema/yamato-movie/special/ Go down to the bottom center to the "CG photography" box and click on "check" to see a bunch of stills--including some of IQ9 Quote
Vifam7 Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 NNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Why? Why did they have to f**k with the original designs? They look all clunky and boxy. Meh... Agreed. They look like something from Hollywood. Oh well, here's hoping the execution of the movie is better than the mess that was Yamato Rebirth. Quote

IQ9 looked great. If anything, its a wonder that they included the character in the film, since that is normally the sort of thing that smartarse producers would cut out. Taksraven Quote
UN Spacy Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 Happy Thanksgiving fellow SBY fans! Today is also the release date of Bandai's Soul of Chogokin GX-57 Yamato.

UN Spacy Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 Are you guys watching the Macy's parade right now? Quote
myk Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 (edited) Yeah, prices are all over the place. Ami Ami is the best I've seen so far. Hey man, thanks for the heads up, that's a good $100 off at least. Do they deal with Western round-eyes in the States? Edited November 25, 2010 by myk Quote

Yes they do, they've been getting most of my business ever since they started selling internationally. Great customer service and the lowest prices in town. Quote

Renato Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Are you guys watching the Macy's parade right now? "Yamamoto"?? I cry. Quote
Keith Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 "Yamamoto"?? I cry. We're just lucky they didn't say "Yay-May-to." As awesome as that is though, any reason given as to why they played it? Quote
UN Spacy Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 My payment invoice for GX-57 arrived. 20,230 yen (15,950/4280 EMS shipping). With the exchange rate it endeded up at $250. Quote

Kronnang Dunn Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 (edited) You can see the Cosmo Tiger and I believe the Cosmo Zero also another earth ship courtesy of Tim Eldred on the Yamato mailing list http://webprint.epson.jp/mypage/pickup/yamato/yamato.jsp#contents_nenga Also here is a look at some of the props which include a look at the Gamelon Fighters http://www.therpf.com/f45/space-battleship-yamato-93785/ That "other Earth ship" looks a lot like Kodai brother's missile destroyer Yukikaze from the battle at Pluto shown in episode 1 of the original series. WOW... I love the new designs. The Gamilon ship looks as alien as it should be... while the fighters now look more like space fighters and less than jets like the 70s versions... Don't get me wrong. I love the originals, but also think the new ones are awesome... Btw... does the English menu in the official site means the movie will have an International release? Since I've heard is the most expensive Japanese film ever produced It could be a possibility... Edited November 27, 2010 by Kronnang Dunn Quote
