It looked Transformers-ish, so I picked it up. It is a dubbed Japanese anime. The worst one you could ever possibly see. Hilarious things occur all throughout. Scenes reused over and over again, people standing near glass and their reflections being completely different people, etc. Not to mention that whoever did the voice over doesn't speak very good english, so the inflections are off quite a bit, making for a very funny action anime. I don't want to spoil it too much, so I won't say anymore.

Everyone who likes anime should watch this, as well as people who just want a good laugh. So, if anyone wants to see this gem of a disgrace to anime, PM me and I'll ship it to you for free (it's in a small dvd case, it shoudn't cost more than $1). The only thing I ask is that you be willing to ship it to the next person that wants it.

That is if there is anyone but me that really likes seeing bad movies. This one is oh so bad.

So - I finally saw it tonight...and goodness what a feature. Take a giant robot (Zinga7) and shove a freight train full of children up it's ass (Super Express) and you've got an invincible weapon - or so seems the premise of this film.

I loved how all the names were anglicized - General Larry and his son Kent, Prince Cyprion and his sister Susan. The evil Master Alfred and his Mistress Helen. Best was when one alien turns to the other and says, "Shoot him Ray"

Loved that the bad guys got their power from the "central motivating unit" and the cry of distress, "Ahh, we've been segmented!"

A delight, in an odd way - seen only because Lisa is on an overnight pet sitting gig and I know she's have never made it past the opening title. Still next time, I'll probably just download porn.

So who's next? I should be seeing some of you in person fairly soon, any takers?
