| Welcome movie goers to our sixth Movie of the Week. This week's feature is Galaxy Express 999. http://myanimelist.net/anime/1301/Ginga_Tetsudou_999_%28Movie%29 ANN said: After the death of his mother at the hands of the evil robot Count Mecha, young Tetsuro has become a delinquent street urchin who dreams only of revenge. Tetsuro lives in a far future world in which humans have the choice to travel to another planet where they can exchange their bodies for immortal, robotic counterparts. His goal is to someday acquire (through theft) enough money to board the Galaxy Express 999, a train which is capable of traveling through space, and which will take him to the planet of robots. One day, after escaping from the police, he meets the beautiful Maetel, who resembles his mother. She offers to take him on the Galaxy Express 999 to get a robotic body and to get revenge on Count Mecha. Along the journey, the two meet many varied people (including Captain Harlock and Queen Emeraldas), and Tetsuro learns what it means to be human.

| Thank you Grin! Just watched Galaxy Express 999 and it was wonderful. I found a quality version on StupidTP ;-p Considering this was made in 1979 the story was exciting and heartfelt with a good message about being human. I never would have seen this without you bringing it to my attention. I might add that there is a second movie that continues 2 years after the end of this one and I am going to watch it soon. http://myanimelist.net/anime/1302/Sayonara_Ginga_Tetsudou_999:_Andromeda_Shuuchakueki/Sayonara Ginga Tetsudou 999: Andromeda Shuuchakueki |

| When things settle down for me I should have more time to watch anime than ever before. =0) |
