Holy crap! I'm ready to head out to the theatre right now. I'd even put up with subtitles.
Think Desslok's in it?

I grew up on Starblazers aka Battleship Yamoto
How exactly are foriegn films released in the US???
Does the Japanese studios need to negotiate with American Studios?
Or do they just go straight to the theaters and say, "Release this movie Bytch"
slap some subtitles on this and get it in the theaters!!!!
otherwise, i've got 5 months to learn Japanese.
Plenty of time

Yes.
It can get.... complicated.
If it's released here, it'll be subbed.
Hmm, never saw the original, but I don't tend to like the idea of making live-action versions of animes.

According to an online translation tool the above translates to
As for the Japanese the air has deviated
Which I sense might not be so accurate
hmmm.... tried another online translation program and got
Japanese people must be crazy
looks like translation software has a ways to go.
hmmm.... third time is the charm

This is looking pretty damned good! If I make it to Japan in December, I'll definitely scope it out.

Well, yes and no. In the anime, the battleship is brought up out of the ocean and rebuilt as a space ship to battle the alien forces of the evil Desslok (who is awesome).
I've been waiting for this ever since the teaser trailer we got ages ago. (Which had arguably better music than this one, since it used orchestral versions of leitmotifs from the original series. Plus, it culminated in the oh-so-distinctive first measures of the Yamato theme.)

AUGHG!
I'm sorry, Planetes spoiled me. If it has sound and bad physics, it makes my head hurt.

Oh, look, a review! You can also find general audience reviews (in Japanese) since it opened yesterday there.

I applaud their banzai courage and their advanced space combat tactics! And also their hot lady fighter pilots, so sorry, forgive my chauvinist piggery.
