(L) Fate/Stay Night - Unlimited Blade Works Movie

[Hyperion]

Well, I'm stoked and so are a couple of my friends who played the VN and watched the anime. I just hope it doesn't bomb.

[Aqua Knight]

Hell yeah!
But we would see the subbed version in about a year
Though
The graphics are AWESOME!!!! The blood!!!
Also please I want Rin x Shirou moments, at least a kiss as in Fate anime. Please...

So as I pray-

Unlimited Months of Waiting

[Flinch]

I got a feeling that this won't be as good as we expect. Many of us (I am not one of them) are expecting great things of this movie, therefore any deviation from that will ruin the movie. In short, many of you are beginning to over-hype the movie.

[Suzuku]

Set your expectations low so no matter what the movie will impress you. :3

[Aqua Knight]

Um, you're right that it's not time to be hyped. Also why is the movie done now? I mean, anime was released 4 years ago and I doubt that F/S N reached its climax now among the fans.
And isn't it hard to show all the emotion of the betrayed ideal in the movie which is like 2 hours? And again I bet there will be no romantic line due to lack of time.
Btw, movies are usually 1,5 hour right? If so the movie will be spoiled due to the rush atmosphere with all this mass action. 2 or 3 movies would be much better.

[Suzuku]

^ Well, they might split it up into multiple movies, we'll just have to wait until more info is released.

And the romance won't suffer because of the action; if anything it'll be vice versa lol.

[Flinch]

What romance? The romance in UBW was laughable at best. It wasn't nearly as strong as the relationship in HF or Fate, so I doubt they'll emphasize on it much.

[Aqua Knight]

Ok, not romance but Rin's moments with Shirou like the date, pushing into the wall with breasts and other I didn't mention. But they won't be able to make it up in the movie I guess.
Can this movie be at least 2 hours or not?

[kakakka]

I'm ok with them throwing out some of the romantic moments.

I'm more concerned about Archer (and Shirou's) story in UBW.

[Flinch]

Likewise; that was the only thing that didn't make me fall asleep in UBW.

Yeah, because "Goshuujin-sama plz forget everything and smex me" Sakura and "I must dai" Saber are sooo much better than Rin vowing to help Shirou fight for his ideals and stay by his side. But I guess you prefer the Fate/stay in the kitchen romance from HF.

[Aqua Knight]

Let's put aside romance then. It's a pity that some moments in the movie were already in the anime.

[Suzuku]

It'll be nice seeing them reanimated in movie quality though.

Can't wait to see Unlimited Blade Works vs. Gates of Babylon. ^^

[Aqua Knight]

Still I'm sure the movie will be rushed. And I hate it. Unless it is 2,5 hours or so.

[Flinch]

The relationship in UBW was the worst out of them all, I'm sorry to say. Though I truly hate Heaven's Feel, the relationship between Shiro and Sakura was executed much better the relationship of Shiro and Rin in UBW. Fate seemed the most realistic, because it takes a long time to get a chivalrous person to think about themselves before someone else.

[Aqua Knight]

Hey,hey stop this is not the romance thread.
Is there anyone who could go to Japan and watch the movie?

[Flinch]

I might go back sometime, people were a lot kinder there.

There was nothing wrong with the UBW relationship... It was a relationship where both supported each other... Unlike HF where Shirou for some uncanny reason wanted to help someone who was trying to kill him, or Fate where he fell in love with heroic spirit that me must of known could not exist past the Holy Grail War...

[Aqua Knight]

It's only natural not to like any other pairing exept your favourite one.

Same here. It's not like better animation will make it a good movie. It's how they'll handle the adaptation. The TV series had pretty good animation for the most part the thing was that Deen's adaptation was average, it wasn't bad but it wasn't great either. Now look at Ufotable's adaptation of Kara no Kyoukai, so much better in comparison, it's not just getting it's praise just for it's slick animation but for it's great adaptation of the novel. Hopefully Deen will do better job this time around but since it's a movie they'll have a limited amount of time to how much they can adapt UBW in movie form, which may turn out rather condensed.
