Re: Movies

The 08th Mobile Suit Team series should be available on DVD by now 
(and will be on Toonami in the near future). It covers the adventures 
and mishaps of a squad of mobile suits fighting in the jungle. No 
Newtypes, only one experimental unit - just a straight war story 
(with romance).

War in the Pocket (Gundam 80) is a great war movie and a heckuva
tragedy.
