This Island Earth had an even bigger impact on Patlabor.

Only impact This Island Earth had was when Mystery Science Theater 3000 made it's feature film in their own movie.

One of Oshii's classic films Urusei Yatsura: Beautiful Dreamer, the second Urusei Yatsura film, will also be broadcast on the Movie Plus channel in Japan in February.


And currently streaming every-flippin'-where, starting with Amazon Prime.
