The American release was of the actual movies not just 'movies' cut together form the TV series like other classic anime

Are you sure, I mean pertaining to the Sci-fi channel releases?  I've been watching the fansub, and I've basicly seen a stretched version of what was shown on Sci-fi.  I saw the same thing happen to Iria:Zeiram the Animation.  They took the 6 episode series, and shortened it into a movie, which paraphrased what had happened, and leaving out some of the character development that occured in the full version. 

In the case of GE999, I remember seeing the Pluto scene(episode) but not the one pertaining to the two-parter where Testuro was kidnapped by the woman living at the edge of the galaxy.  And only -part of the episode involving the pirate who gave Tetsuro the gun.  Or am I wrong, and that was the premise of the movies(at least the first and not "Adieu")?

Forgive me, I've only been into fansubs for a couple years, and haven't seen too many (most of the time groups were dropping or forgetting the ones I was watching--save for Bleach, which was liscenced).

I'm happy to see that GE999 is still getting fansubbed.  It is by far one of my favorite animes, and it has been one I have used to get a lot of people into it as well.  It surprised me to find out that what had been done with the American release was for 114 epsidoes to be cut into two movies.  I was thrilled to see a fansub of the series going on.

Thanks a lot L-E. <3
