Well, this is explosive in the extreme…
We posted a trailer for Space Battleship Yamato here and now those fine folks over at Ain’t It Cool News have nabbed a couple more trailers (see below) for the film, also known as Starblazers.
The film is due for release in Japan on December 1st, whether any of the rest of us will get to see it any time soon remains to be seen. The film, directed by FX-guru Takashi Yamazaki is set in 2220, as the titular battleship transports the inhabitants of Earth to a new world, as a black hole threatens to engulf Earth.
To be honest, even with the benefit of subtitles, the trailers are nigh-on incomprehensible. There seem to be lots of explosions and battles and people in jeopardy and Steve Tyler of Aerosmith fame singing about love. I’m sure this will be lots of fun, so for the time being just sit back and enjoy.
