'Fullmetal Alchemist' The Movie

I cried during that movie more than I did than when scar died (he was my fav char) but it was very good and I think a great end to a great anime.


and concidering that I nearly threw my T.V. remote out my window when the series ended and ed was alive in the other world and my head started to hurt trying to figure it out.

I liked the movie when i watched it, but afterwards i felt a little cheated, i think they could have made the film into another series they could have improved on the new characters and made the final battle longer

[Sogoro]

I just watched the movie. I just about shed tears. I hope they make a second movie about getting that Uranium bomb or something. x.x I dont like the fact that their not back in their world

[arkxkra]

I just finish watch also. Not say the movie not nice and not the ending not nice, it just i dont like the ending, yes in the end with his bro, it good, but didnt go back to their own world. Winry left behind

i was sad is because of winry, she wait so hard for the reunion with Ad but awhile then separate again, although she already know Ad won't let her wait anymore, but she already wait quite long time. I know everything wont have perfect, but still ...

Another thing, I like the growth winry

But overall the movie is good!

[Aden Sickle]

The movie ended perfectly....for another FMA series! What the h*** are those idots thinking? Poor Winry, I bet it was like losing her parents all over again, Ed and Al where basicaly family to her.

Spoiler for FMA OVA:

I don't know the rules regarding OVAs and how they are supposed to fit in with the series, but there is an FMA OVA with three kids who look alot like Ed, Al, and Winry running through town. When they get home or where ever it is they were going, there is short old man with a very familiar hair style sitting in the shadows sporting a machanical arm and holding an old black and white photo of what I think is supposed to be Ed and Al.

If that OVA is meant to be a kind of epilouge, then I guess we can kiss any hope of them going home, good bye.

He even added in the script that Alphonse -asked- Edward, "what are you going to do about Winry?" - and wtf Edward just forgot about it? The girl who is -secondly- most important to you after your brother? Your childhood friend, crush and constant support through the whole frigging show whose whole and heartsome input in the story has been about fixing and improving -your- automail, and i dare to say not only out of professionalism, and he just forgot? Even Noa who is a movie added character got a better deal out of the ending than Winry, and while I think Noa deserved a good finish, Winry should have been granted far far FAR more credit.

Dear dear director, scriptwriter and studio, you really underestimated your audience. I wouldn't have minded both of the brothers on the wrong side of the door, but as it came out, they and Winry got absolutely nothing resolved and nothing said. So all those childhood memories and present trials together with her was what? Unimportant? Nada? A big frigging plothole you simply didn't have the time nor budget to cover so you just decided to skip and hope that we might not notice it?

It sucked, and sucked big since it ruined a lot of the characters from the anime. Edward and Alphonse would -never- have left Winry behind so nochalanty and without even thinking of her, and Winry's whole role through the anime just got punctured like a overblown baloon. What was she in the anime to the brothers then, being given such an ending? Just the token girl who gets cast aside since she didnt contribute anything? *tears hair*

Spoiler:

I couldn't agree less,"I guess it's goodbye for good now" that comment made me so sad. I'm really questioning the end of that movie. Really....poor Winry....
But seriously, what gives with the oh noes envy got himself killed thing, I mean, hes a bitch, totally deserved to face a much more painfull death.
Though, I feel really sorry for Wrath, poor little kid, got himself snapped at half by that overgrown maggot>.< but he finally got to reunite with his mother though, made me sorta happy^^

[katara1337]

Seriously, how can Ed and Al stand leaving their own world? Think of everyone, for crying outloud. What about the military, what about Winry, what about their childhood, what about ALCHEMY!?

Well, to be honest, it was all about the two brothers. When you think about it, everything else comes second if it means that they can be together again.

[katara1337]

maybe, but its just so damn sad that they left their world...and winry...and all the other guys...and that their old man died...and wrath...
sure fine, the ending was good, but its really not a happy ending.

[katara1337]

The movie was really good, to be honest, but it's just so sad that this is the end of Full Metal Alchemist. I hate the fact that they left everyone from the series and remained in our world. It's so damn sad that they left Winry, it's so incredibly empty. I really can't see Winry moving on. She waited for Edward to come back for a damn long time, then she end up completely alone instead. They gave up on alchemy, they gave up on all their friends, they gave up everything. Yeah, they got eachother, but the story wasn't about them alone, every character played their role and made FMA as it is. It's so damn sad that Wrath had to die, although he was reunited with his mother, and same goes for their old man, their story, their existence just got erased. And there is nothing but a shallow memory of them left, atleast for Wrath, who will ever remember that little fellow? The only persons that seemed to acknowledge him in the movie were Ed and Al....and maybe winry too, and they would remain in an alternate universe (except winry). And when I come to think of it, no one will really remember Hoenheim either, since Edward really didn't care too much for him, and he sort of was the only viable witness:/.

And yeah, I think every character from the FMA should be given more screentime, and the additional new ones should also receive some too.

I just feel very sad after watching the FMA movie. I don't know why, maybe it's because the series ended
I also just found out about Hughes death....it was so sad to see him go....same with Greed, best damn Homonculi there was:/ I felt the Anime died a bit when those two passed

But I think its the only way that the FMA plot actually could develop, people eventually need to pass away.....and I think that was a "coup de grace" of the movie when everyone died sacrifcing themselves, as well throughout as the series...the FMA characters pretty much made the whole anime. Don't get me wrong, I love the concept with alchemy and all, and the adorable brotherlove intentions as well, but it's really heartbreaking to see all those wonderfull characters fall one by one So they really impaled that coffin for good, and even though I'm very late watching the series and the movie, I kinda just felt it was going to end there, as a really sad closure...

And yeah, of course a anime need some minor characters and some major ones, both villains and heroes, some will perish, some won't. But I totally fell for FMA as a whole, with all the characters. Not only the two brothers, who finally got what they wanted. I just found that part very sad, the separation from all the wonderfull people back in their world, and all those terrible deaths. This was a very sad closure/end for me.

Finally, I think the FMA series is too good, I would just get sad if it involved an "end" in the first place. I really fell in love with the anime, and I've found myself very messed up now that it's over.

Thanks for reading, hope I didn't make you as sad as my current emotional state But the movie rocked, cant argue with that

[X10A_Freedom]

That was a good movie, and yes it's a very bittersweet ending. I feel very sorry for Winry indeed...

Now, I have to wait until this summer until I get to read free manga (my sister collects it) again.

[CitizenGeek]

I watched the movie a while ago and I absolutely loved it. It was a fitting end to a great series, IMO. Plus, there could be another sequel or two on the way!

[BritishBearBoy]

I have bought this Movie but am yet to watch it. But from what I have seen it looks really good. I bought the two boxsets (Eps 1-51), So I thought it would be fitting to buy the movie too. ^_^
Also it looks good with my collection. XD

I never heard about that. Where did you get this information, if I may ask?

[Amray]

Absolutely Amazing. Although I did like the ending I disagreed with it.

[Kikio]

god..i hated the conquer of shambala movie..too much World War II..

[Metal_Ed]

lol! I've already seen him for about .. erh.. 8 times ! and still I love it!!

[Amray]

I watched it again last night, it's so awesome!
Although, some Jewish people may find that Movie a tad offensive. But it was set just after the war so it fits in with the story.

[Metal_Ed]

that's so true!

There was no WWII whatsoever, actually. They were in the 1930's. It might have been on the horizon, but not for another 5-10 years, by my reckoning. It was just after WWI, and had some influence from the obvious happenings in Germany around the time of their depression. I found it fascinating, personally.

And don't just flame the movie. At least give some reason(s).
