This is getting a little off-topic, but...

The original title is DAI KESSEN! CHOU URUTORA HACHI KYOUDAI, which literally translated as GREAT DECISIVE BATTLE! THE SUPER 8 ULTRA BROTHERS. For whatever reason, Tsuburaya chose the ridiculous title SUPERIOR ULTRAMAN 8 BROTHERS for English sales. It doesn't even make any sense grammatically! Even a simple change like THE 8 SUPERIOR ULTRAMAN BROTHERS would sound better (though I dislike "Ultraman Brothers" anyway and wish they'd just stick with "Ultra Brothers" in English).

Unless I'm writing an article or something I never use the SUPERIOR title. It just sounds stupid. If I'm writing about it online I tend to switch between calling it SUPER 8 and 8 ULTRA BROS. Whichever comes to mind first.

And now back to Ultra Galaxy...

It's not like we're ever going to see that title on a DVD cover or something over here in the States...

That "thing" you call a trailer looks like something fan-made. The scenes with the ruins and stone Ultras, and the five Golzas, definitely are from Tiga: Final Odyssey, and everything else is cobbled together from something that's been released before. And the only glimpse of Belial is a cropped shot of his head on a white background.

If that is an actual trailer, that does more of a disservice to the movie than not showing anything at all.

I have doubts it's an official trailer as well; all company logos are missing, the text effects look rather poor, the final shot is taken straight from the official website, the entire trailer is comprised of stock footage, etc.

If it is official then I'm honestly surprised.
