Yu-Gi-Oh! 3D Bonds Beyond Time

[Goesasu]

I live in Chile so someone better steal the movie sheldon style, i dont want to wait till 2012, by that time i ll be a lawyer for god sake and the movie was announced when i was on my 4 year, aired in japan during my 5 year, aired in USA while im studing for my "bar exam" (not the same thing, but i have to study 8 hours 5 days a week for 8 months so its kinda difficult).
I can see them not releasing the DVD in japan nor in USA till the movie reaches the rest of the world in 2012, so all my faith is on the fans.

4Kids, to my knowledge, has stated that the DVD would be released sometime after the theatrical release. Though, who knows exactly when that will be.

Either way, this has got to be the most delayed DVD release ever. Or the biggest troll in the franchise. D|

[63cohen]

Perhaps NAS knew they could prevent what made Fractale stop its English simulcast. As long as they never made a hard copy until it made it to the Western World, it would not be pirated, and they have miraculously succeeded. Fractale should learn a thing or two from that method.

Apples and oranges, dear. Apples and oranges.

Fractale's a TV Show that can be recorded. The Movie isn't. Also, the Fractale Production commitee is pants-on-head retarded insane with their request. I'm all for power to the Japanese companies and legal subs, but there's also sanity.

There are ways to prevent it still ... they just need to be innovative to find it.

Oh, and the general opinion from 2CH is that fan subbers are destroying the anime industry worldwide. They don't help out anyone.

[MorningMoon]

2ch think that? aren't they just the japanese 4channers minus a great deal of the trolling?

Minus a ton of trolling

Here is the article (NSFW site: http://tinyurl.com/3yw66cr)

[MorningMoon]

well derp me, forgot the simple logic that 2chers are japanese therefor obviously don't like fan-subbing since it gives nothing to them and hurts the industry...

Anyway, gotta say that this movie deserves a Well Played for simply keeping it swell and secret enough for the international market. Even though we would all have preferred seeing it way sooner.

Well, the region locking (both with streams and DVDs, making it impossible for some folks to enjoy their series legally), and the Fractalegate mess isn't exactly helping out either. Not to mention that there's plenty of old anime that will never see an official sub (Legend of Galactic Heroes and The Rose of Versailles for example). But I digress.

I doubt NAS will hold back on a DVD, and I'm hoping for a DVD release by late summer/early fall or maybe 4kids will show it on tv a month after or something.

[63cohen]

I think most places that have CW will have a theater close by, so they somewhat do expect kids to see it, but since it does pertain very closely to the plot of 5Ds, I would imagine they would have a TV run at some point. They would do what they did for Turtles Forever, and set aside 2 to 3 30 minute slots for it.

[MorningMoon]

Turtles Forever should have had a limited theater release... :<

[YaminoRPG]

VLC player bypasses DVD region locking FYI. Also if your in the UK you may be aware than Japanese DVDs are also the same region as ours (ie Region 2) although the blue rays are changing this I believe.

BluRays from Japan are on the same region as NA, but not Europe.

As for region unlocked, all Sony Players are region unlocked.

Not in the UK Cohen, I own 3 and none of them are unlocked (though can be if you look for hacks online).

Annoying Japan chose to opt for Region 1 over Region 2.

[63cohen]

My Sony Vaio has options to change the region in Corel, so perhaps you need the right programs. But it isn't like you would actually buy anime from Japan, it is way too expensive. I would imagine this movie would be 40 bucks there, while here it would be like Turtles Forever and priced 20 bucks.

Actually mate I do buy from Japan. I have a fair collection ranging from Saiyki interactive to the special edition BIG O set.

That is nice, just know if any of that was/is released in the Western World, it would be/is much cheaper.

[masterduelistky]

I hope the rest of the updated list is revealed within the next week, I really don't want to have to drive 2 1/2 for one, when it makes no sense for one not to be in Nashville.

Have you tried going to your local theater to ask them? That might help.

[YaminoRPG]

I am aware of that but I actively try to avoid buying dubs and often the Japanese stuff comes with a lot of cool stuff.
Anime in the UK is pretty dead so our stuff is very limited and I have had issues importing stuff from the US in the past.

[Shadow_Kaiser]

There's been another update on the list of theaters.

And it seems the closest one to me will have it. Might be worth going to then.

EDIT: The only theaters that have added been are 4 Great Escape theaters.

[Lia]

The latest episode of 5D'S (145) actually showed some new scenes from the movie instead of the ED theme. The attack against Judai was shown in details. I don't know if the next episodes will end in the same way. We'll see.

[Indigo_Thunder]

So to see this movie, I have to go FAR out of my way, and my only reward is a card that will be in the movie pack anyway?
Ummm...what reason is there to see this in theaters? Someone please give me one. I sincerely want to see, but I don't
want to waste my money.

Big Screen.

Those are your reasons. Now watch it.

What Xray said.

Also, it's uncertain when the DVD will be released or when it will be aired on TV.
And America gets to see it firsthand after Japan (and South Korea as far as I know). Rest of the world has to wait one more year, and there's the possibility of some countries not getting the movie at all in the theaters.

[Kyte]

Something that Slifer posted up in a poll kinda caught my interest...

http://www.movietickets.com/movie_de...us=40&md2Go=Go

That's another movie search engine and it doesn't show as many cinemas that are to have the movie for me at all. Only one in Anaheim (20-40 minute drive) so wondering if anyone has the same thing happening? Movietickets.com is reliable too so doubt they'd hold anything back.

Well going off of that list, there's a theater a good half hour away from me. Sweet.

[Ivlander14]

^Closer for me. I'd have to drive, like, 20 min.

[63cohen]

Don't know if this was mention yet or not, but in one of the Press Releases, it says all the voice actors will return, so Dan Green, Greg Abbey, Jaden's VA, and Pegasus's VA will all be there (who would doubt that?) I just wonder who they got for Grandpa, or if it was really such a needed thing, as we don't know if he has enough time to have anything other than a screamer. I still don't have any idea who could do Paradox, want to take a guess?

It was reaffirmed to me that Copans and Federal is a bad area, ... I might go down there beforehand to see just how bad an area it really is.

EDIT: Just got some friends to come with me, so it should be fine then even if the area is bad.

[Kyte]

Maybe a VA who can get that deep-voice in an old man manner. Perhaps one who could do the job is whoever voiced Gozaburo Kaiba/Principal Samejima(?) in the dubs, just deepen voice and sound like a senior. As for Paradox...I can so see Sean Schemmel doing the job since they like milking him but who knows, sometimes they grab VAs who hasn't done other characters or very few ones in the series so far. However, he has done a bunch of characters but they're forgettable besides the MC. Also, since the guy can sing, they could go the extra mile of doing an English version of makemagic for the movie or just stick in the Japanese version either way. If they atleast keep that or make an ENG version of it, I'll be fairly impressed. Another choice would also be maybe Placido's VA.

The area where the cinema is, judging from that list, is on Katella Ave. which is same street as Anaheim Con Center and Disneyland.

[Kyte]

Sorry for double-post but Slifer posted on DA that Europe will be receiving a DVD release of the movie with a card during the first quarter of 2011

[Arynis]

Oh thank goodness, I'm so glad the 2012 date for the European release is invalidated by this magazine. Looks like the USA and Europe will be getting the movie and the DVD simultaneously, if not with a little delay. (Probably to get it dubbed in the countries' respective languages and whatnot.)

Thanks Kyte for sharing! And Slifer for finding that magazine and the article.

[Heather]

Thank you Kyte and Slifer. I really hope that the information given is true. I won't mind so much if the film is shown over here a few months after America (as it is the way with most films anyway), waiting another year would be so depressing.

[Kyte]

Also just noticed that the very last line on the right says how the new series will hit the rest of the world later this fall, too

[Heather]

Strangely enough, I'm not that bothered about when Zexal will appear as the 5Ds normally appears on the internet within a day of broadcast and subs shortly after so I know that we will be able to keep up with that almost from the get go. The fact that it has been over a year since the movie was released and it still hasn't appeared anywhere online keeps me chomping at the bit to see it. Plus, I don't watch the dub anymore so I'm unlikely to watch Zexal (bar maybe the first few episodes to check out dub names and voices)

[63cohen]

I feel if you simply watch the dub, you can enjoy it. If you be nitpicky about it, you won't enjoy it. You won't enjoy anything if you nitpick it.

[Siliva]

Also just noticed that the very last line on the right says how the new series will hit the rest of the world later this fall, too

LOL.

So either 4Kids is going to dub two YGO series at the same time or 5D's is going to get the GX season 4 treatment.

[Heather]

I'm not totally against the dub but it seriously spoils it for me when you get over the top accents like Jack's. At the moment Nick Toons are playing DM at 7pm and GX at 7.30pm so I watch them because they're on. I'm sure if anyone bothered to play 5Ds I would watch that too but I won't go out my way to find the dub on the internet and watch it as I end up disappointed. I doubt anyone will actually show Zexal in the UK anyway so the point is moot anyway.

[63cohen]

LOL.

Two at once isn't impossible. And it is confirmed to get no GX treatment as 4kids already has all 90 episodes left.

If kids find it interesting, like they did with 5Ds, but not GX, they will watch. There is a reason 4kids has treated 5Ds better than GX.

They may have attained them Cohen but that's by no means a guarantee they will dub them. They may decide to dub Zexal first and if it proves more successful dump the dubbing of 5d's final series.

Yugioh is pretty much dead over here isn't it. 4kids dub gave it a bad rep and Upperdecks early mismanagement of the game here has sealed its fate. Even the DS games are scarce here.

[63cohen]

Not when they say they'll have it all ready by Q2 2011, for other markets, such as Europe or Australia.

Sorry about Yugioh's state in the UK, in America it is thriving enough even in the teen culture to be on the cover of two Shonen Jumps, and the movie in theaters.

I know it's big there. Heck you got the arcade machine thingymabobby. It annoys me a bit that mismanagement killed what could have been a thriving game here. At least we still get the games now and then.

4kids handled it in US, who did in UK? They are to blame, not 4kids. Don't blame them, as they licensed it off to another company, who, if it faield as you say it has, is more to blame.

It sure is which is a real shame since there does seem to be fans out there but we're treated like lepers by the companies who should be nurturing us and wowing us with their merchandise.

I wish we could get Shonen Jump on a regular basis without having to pay inflated prices in the likes of Forbidden Planet for the American import. Neo magazine just doesn't do the same job (plus they ignore Yu-Gi-Oh most of the time anyway).

[YaminoRPG]

4kids has a branch in London so they handled the show. Remember what I told you before, bad dubs damaged the anime market in the UK. It made it so the public couldn't view it as anything but for kids. As such when Yugioh came along with its terrible dub the market here just crashed. Most UK anime firms are now gone.

The game was handled by upperdeck and basically they were slow at releasing the cards. Promotions were limited and they sold them at really bizzare places. Rather than off licences and game shops they sold them in Tesco (do you have that in the US? it's like Wallmart but crap) of all places.

The bad dub made the game appear to be just for kids and the bad distribution killed the game quite quickly.

4kids are still to blame as as the old saying goes "you cant polish a turd". No matter who distributed the anime the fact was it was Americanised which pissed us off here for one, badly dubbed and the fact it was never shown in completion on any channel, going from Sky one, then Nick, then Sky one again, then ITV. In the end I lost track on who was airing which season. I said screw this and got the HK DVD box sets.

[63cohen]

I guess Upper Deck did better in the states ... that and Konami stepping their foot in to take over after UD screwed up.

[MorningMoon]

LOL.

So either 4Kids is going to dub two YGO series at the same time or 5D's is going to get the GX season 4 treatment.

Didn't they do that with Gx and DM??
Or, at least that's what happened in Latin America..

Thanks for sharing Kyte! It's a very good new! I guess It's for this reason the dub is aired again on French channels since some times. I wondering what will be the promotional card in the DVD.

[Kyte]

Might be Malefic Red Eyes, they did the same for POL where it came with Pyramid of Light. Or who knows, maybe surprise us with Neos Knight or something since that's yet to be confirmed for release.
