Here's an interesting tid-bit:
The movie and the TV series were conceived at the same time, and Production IG had two different teams working on both projects from the start. The staff for the TV series and the movie are completely different, and the TV director commented before it aired that he wasn't part of the movie staff.
CLAMP planned the entire story from the beginning, and the movie is the "main event" set in Tokyo, while the TV series was designed as the "prequel" to set up the events of the movie. They were deliberately meant to be contrasting, with different tones, different characters, and a different visual look.
It's kinda unfortunate that it turns out that most people did not like the TV series, and the sales have been absolutely dreadful. This will definitely hurt the potential reception to the movie. The staff for the movie have not been revealed yet, but there are various hints which indicate that there's a good chance Naoyoshi Shiotani could be the director of the Blood-C movie. It'll be an interesting choice, considering his extremely artistic work on the third Blood+ OP.
