Just watched the Space Battleship Yamato Live movie that was release in Japan last year. I bought this on DVD from Amazon.com last week.
It was pretty awesome!!! While the plot only generally followed the plot of the original cartoon season 1 series, the characters, themes, and FX effects were amazing!!! A+ Hollywood movie quality. Highly recommended for at least a viewing. Amazon.com: Space Battleship Yamato [2010, Japan][Uncut Slipcover Edition] DVD: Takuya Kimura, Meisa Kuroki, Toshiro Yanagiba, Naoto Ogata, Takashi Yamazaki: Movies & TV EDIT: Damn, just realized the DVD is now out of stock.

It really reminded me of Armageddon... had the same dude singing the ending theme too. LOL.
I liked it, but it was a tad too sentimental for my taste, but I think that was done to cater to a Japanese audience. Takuya Kimura was pretty good as the main dude, be he always plays that type of heroic character in pretty much everything he does. The first time I saw Meisa Kuroki in Crows Zero I thought she was epic pretty, but now when I see her as Yuki she is just... IDK... meh. LOL. The space battle effects were decent, but I still think not as good as Syfy's Battlestar Galactica space battles. My favorite thing about the movie is those motorcycle leather jacket arrow uniforms that they now use... much better than the original unis. I need one of those jackets! LOL.

Had some cool points, some bad.
One that made me scratch my head (and I am trying to be spoiler free as possible here) is they jumped to the end of the Japanise second season at the end, which is odd cause that ending was re-edited and changed later after heavy negitive reactions(and if I say why I would spoil it anyway). |

I have it. Just have not had the time to watch it. My brother did and he highly recommends it. I loved the series when I was a kid and when I saw the trailer of this and saw the seen where they fired the wave motion, it blew me away.
