Any thoughts on how long it'd take to come out on DVD after the theatrical viewing? |

Still seems to be a teaser trailer at the most. That is Mion speaking right?
I'm still a bit worried about this movie. Perhaps if I just think of it as a completely different movie...it should be fine.

I'm actually okay with the characters so far. Better than the fake or Negima. |

That's actually their best chance to actually have an impact, as Watanagashi-hen isn't exactly "beginner" friendly, Tatarigoroshi-hen is just too long, and Himatsubushi-hen wouldn't make sense at all. There isn't much any way to do that in fact.

Keiichi - Meh
Rena - sucks Tommy - looks like Hard Gay Mion - WTF Rika? - too old Oishi - What happened to him being overweight? Irie? - Those cloths are too big Takano - Droopy-tan, what did they do to you? Bottom line: This movie will suck more then the Negima Drama What makes it not beginner friendly?

I'm actually kind of hopeful for the movie, actually. In my opinion, anything is better than the Higurashi porn. Most of the characters look good [Irie has himself a new fangirl] but hopefully, the storyline will still be pretty much entertaining as well as mysterious.
But you guys know what I'm really afraid of? An American remake... [I just saw the preview for the remake of One Missed Call]

I'd actually be interested in a British take on it. The whole "cult" thing would work better in that setting (I'm kind of thinking of the Wicker Man here ... with less naked May Pole dancing). I think it would work if it was in good hands. Not that it would ever happen.
I'm cautiously optimistic about this movie. The trailer seems kind of cheap, but most Japanese live action projects do. I don't want the characters to look like their anime/game counterparts, that would be cheesy. I like seeing them more realistic. There's actually a cool fan art in the image thread of the gang with more realistic hair/clothes/proportions. |
