Staying on the "AYBABTU"-theme, and the movie-topic, have you guys seen "PatLabor - The Movie"? Where E. Hoba had constructed the new Labor-OS, the H.O.S?
When they boot up the system, the screen says "H.O.S Version 1.0 - FOR ALL LABORS"!!!

I just bought the double movie box-set, man that Oshii knows his stuff. Well, I would've liked to see more action scenes, especially in "PatLabor 2", they only fought three little tanks. But I'm in it now, and won't stop until I've seen the original series (POS?). There ARE more action scenes in the series, right?

Can anyone tell me if "Patlabor - The New Files" was any good? Was Noa Izumi still there? She must be the cutest thing I've ever seen (not that I've seen that much Anime).
