After seeing this movie and being so delightfully surprised at how well it was made, I am certain that any Hollywood remake would completely SUCK in comparison.
Usually international films don't have the budget they need to really dazzle their audience, but somehow Space Battleship Yamato was made for only $12 million.
Finally Hollywood will no longer be able to upstage the original by simply adding more CG and explosions!
I don't think you have to worry about Hollywood because Eisner/Disney
sat on the rights for a "Yamato" movie for several years. And it was to have
the usual Hollywood changes (IJN Yamato=USS Arizona, ect), but never got started, even during the Star Wars/Star Trek craze a couple of years ago.
That's also why the movie took so long, because Toho had to wait for Disney's
option to expire.

Who cares??
I say bring on the Hollywood remake. Maybe it'll suck, and maybe it won't. If it does suck, what's the harm? I won't watch it again and won't buy the DVD.
Look at 2010's 'Let Me In', a remake of the Swedish film 'Let the Right One In'. The American remake actually was a better film than the Swedish original.
You never know. Sometimes you hit and sometimes you miss. But even if you miss, there's no harm in trying.

There were some parts of Let Me In, that I thought were better than the original, but a lot of it felt too Hollywood-ish. Like getting rid of the whole subplot of whether "she" was a girl or a boy, and the bad CGI attack in the tunnel.
Getting rid of the girl or boy subplot was an improvement. It didn't really work in the Swedish film. They gave you one shot of Eli's crotch in the Swedish film, but it isn't clear from that one shot that she was supposed to be a castrated boy. You just kind of think, "WOAH! Why are they showing her vag and why is it sewed up?". Unless you've read the book, that scene seems random, superfluous, and doesn't make much sense. Matt Reeves was very smart to leave that out of his version. His version was stronger all around.

Don't think they're super interested as they already did it with Battlestar Galactica.🐭
