What's Your Favorite Space Battle Scene in Movies/TV?

Published on June 4, 2014 By Island Dog In PC Gaming

We have a discussion going on about what great space battle scenes there are in either a movie or TV show. You have big movies like Star Wars which had a huge space battle in Episode III above Coruscant, and Star Trek had some epic battles in both the movies and TV series.

I thought it would be fun to get a post started and ask our community what they think are some of the best space battles and why. If you have a YouTube clip or specific movie/episode, be sure to include it.

Good thread and some good choices here!

Anyway, my personal favs are these probably, in no particular order:

Space Battleship Yamato.. Both the anime, and live action movie.

I too loved Space Battleship Yamato. But have you seen SBY 2199, beautiful and gorageous would be an understatement. Everything has been redone, the story tweaked at the right areas to make it it's own. And right now, the US version, Star Blazers is being dubbed as we speak. I have seen all the subbed ones, but this is subbed in Korean I think but just watch the battle...

Can't wait to see what they do with "The Comet Empire."

Also, would love to see a remake of "Robotech." But that would be harder since the US version is made of three unrelated anime...

I'd have to say the Battle of Endor, and the opening for A New Hope.

Best Space Battles...hmmm

Battle of endor - SW ROTJ

Battle of Hoth (space) - SW ESB

Opening and ending battles - SW ANH

Battle beyond the stars

BSG old and new versions

Babylon 5 - severed dreams is my fav but I like all of them.

All the star trek movies except final frontier which was crap.

All the star trek series.

On a added note I saw the star swarm demo of the mantle engine stardocks developing and wish it was a proper game
