Trivia
Unlike Mobile Suit Gundam I (1981), which was edited entirely from existing episodes and Mobile Suit Gundam II: Soldiers of Sorrow (1981), which uses at least 30% of new animation; this adaption uses at least 70% of new animation.

Goofs
Sayla leaves the FF-X7-Bst Core Booster on A Baoa Qu at 2:04:01 but at 2:04:11 there are reused frames of the G-Fighter which doesn't appear in the rest of the movie.

Quotes
Slegger Lau: It sucks, but this is war, after all.

Crazy credits
After the end of the credits there's a message that reads, "And now... in anticipation of your insight into the future."

Alternate versions
The new DVD versions in both Japan and the US uses a recently-recorded Dolby 5.1 surround stereo track, complete with re-recorded dialogue from all of the original cast. Tape versions use the original 1979 mono sound track.

The final installment in the Gundam movie trilogy

Just as Part II was set almost exclusively on Earth, Part III takes the White Base and it's crew back to the stars to a final showdown with the Duchy of Zeon. Along the way, both Amuro and Char once again face each other, and events transpire they won't soon forget(and which carry on to the sequels Zeta Gundam and Char's Counterattack). Part III also has 75% new animation, so it appears more solid than it's predecessors, although the animation is still dated in most places(mostly during battle scenes). Overall, it's very good stuff.
