I was just wandering around Wikipedia yet again and found this. I don't know how many people here know this but I want share it with people like me who didn't. In Wikipedia, it says :- In 2007, Sandy Frank's long term contract with Tatsunoko (owners of the "Gatchaman" franchise) for complete domestic rights of the first Gatch series (along with all spin-offs and dubs) elapsed, and now both BotP and "G-Force" are officially in limbo, leaving only the uncut version by ADV Films on the market.

I hadn't realized that. I wonder if the rights will be picked up by someone...

But not the rights to Zark.

Yeah... Disney. I can see it now... 101 Galactors.... Gatchaman and the Mecha Beast.... The Little Sosai... Berg Katse and the 5 Ninjas.... Ok, those were just plain bad........

What about this movie Honey, I Shrunk the G-Force. Oh what about pantomimes for Chr4istmas such as Gatchaman And The Beanstalk Mech, Zark Whittington with his faith robot dog Rover, Mother Goose Mech, Swan In Boot, Sleeping Ryu, The Wizard Of ISO, Gatchaman And The Forty Galactors.

I got an idea...maybe we can pool resources and pick up the rights for the series!

YYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH,. Then we can we do it without Zark.

Well, if that's what we want to do, we better do it fast! With the movie in production (or pre-production), someone's bound to snap up the rights quickly! I have $3.25 to put towards the cause. Oh, and some pocket lint....

Maybe we could rob banks for the money dressed up as the team? I just I mention it because I am going to the cinema to watch a film called Bank Job tomorrow.

If we bought the rights, we could kill off Zark... oh.... I want to start the fund now!!!!!!

That sounds wonderful.... right now I have about $10.00 to contribute. Hopefully no one purchases it that would kill the movie, but Zark might be excellent. The problem I would have with Disney is, they don't seem to want to release the parts they do own, let alone give them rights to this. It's like they are trying to get rid of anything Gatch.

I am sure I can forgo one of my Tim Horton's Roll Up the Rim drinks to put towards the fund. Especially if it means getting rid of Zark and Susan.

I think I will start saving right now.

Awww I couldn't see the team robbing the bank. I think it would be much more fitting to show up as Spectrans and Zoltar. Besides its right up Zoltar's alley with taking over the earth and all.
