Battle of the Planets: the Movie -part 1/7-

'Battle of the Planets: The Movie' (1978) is a 68 minute feature where several episodes are edited onto one Storyline. The G-Fore team's adventures here are all earthbound, just like in the original japanese Gatchaman. The Movie also includes scenes of violence and loss of life originally edited from the 'censored' BotP TV series.

There is a special character intro for this Movie. Also 7-Zark-7 is played by David Bret Egen instead of Alan Young and the 'BotP theme' is a strange 'club version'.

The Episodes used to make this movie are: 'Attack of the Space Terrapin', 'Big Robot Gold Grab', 'Ghost Ship of Planet Mir' and the 'Invasion of Space Centre' episodes.

What a shame. It's just not the same without Alan Young for 7-zark-7.

notice how at one point he is not wearing gloves while reading the book but has one on while talking to Zark.

Is it true Michael Anthony (Van Halen) played bass on a few episodes?

This was a fun show before He-Man came along and ruined cartoons in the 80s until Batman came along and fixed everything.
