As long as it is not a recap, I don't care. I really find recap stuff useless, why do they even create them?
I wouldn't mind slice of life but I also wouldn't mind some kind of prequel. About sequel... it will turn into slice of life more than anything unless Madoka will magically come back to earth.

You know, I think I'm cooler with a movie than a brand new TV series.
With a movie, I think you'll get something loud, colorful, explosive, and fairly self-contained/stand-alone (running somewhere between 2 and 3 hours, chances are), as anime movies based on established anime are often aimed at a wider audience than hardcore fans of the original property itself. Compared to a TV series sequel, I see less chance here to "screw things up", as it were. It may well just be "An action-packed adventure in the life of Akemi Homura fighting demons in 'Madoka World', with some appearances from other PMMM girls and some touching flashbacks". If so, I would suggest that SHAFT make a big bad main demon that's like Gilgamesh from Fate/Zero. Homura vs. Gates of Babylon could be a lot of fun. Conversely, it could be a pure recap, with some finishing touches put on. I hope it's not that.

If it is it'll probably tank. Don't think people tuned into Madoka Magica to see the daily boring lives of Kaname Madoka. I see absolutely no reason to make Madoka into something cookie cutter when probably it's greatest strength was working to break free of genre trappings.

Yeah basically. It sure wouldn't have much in common with what made Madoka such a hit that's for sure. Might as well start a new franchise at that rate. As someone who is not to keen on Deen I'd take them doing a Madoka movie before I'd take a "Slice of Life Magical Girl Tale". I mean I honestly really and truly could not think of anything further from Madoka than that which people call "slice of life" and it makes me wonder why fans of the franchise would even suggest such a thing except as a joke. I mean this was a joke right guys?

Here is to hoping that the movie is episode 10 greatly extended and further explored. Or another epic timeline where the outcome would not actually change anything from the original series but add to it.
A slice of life movie is not the way to go for shows that are successful due to its dark twists and plots! Not even a recap-styled movie. |

And as for slice of life, what could they possibly do? That genre and this anime don't really seem to fit together well. |

It seems that the movie project involves 3 films. The first two films will be a rearrangement of the TV series, like other popular anime movies, while the final film will be a brand new continuation of sorts. Aniplex is really milking it while it's hot.

Ah well, guess I'll be really looking forward to Part 3 of the trilogy at least.
