Yu-Gi-Oh! 10th Anniversary Movie ~Super Fusion! Bonds That Transcend Time~

[Allana]

Eh, I dunno. I don't want to get my hopes up for additional scenes and footage just because of a card quickly appearing on a duel disk during a draw that, according to the summaries shouldn't be there. It'd suck to be disappointed. It's just as easily an animation flub.

I understand you. A mistake in the continuity seems me big but another hand, there also some mistakes in the trailers. Like Yugi with no mouth.

What more is there to see? We already see his future..it's..full of rubble.

I thought to a scene showing his future before it was destroyed, reavealing a little his background story. I think I can continue to dream.

That's probably the most likely time he stole them. They look normal and not aged from time. Furthermore he's already admitted to prowling the past and trying to alter things.

That's true.

Maybe but there's no real reason to assume that.

That's true but It's a possibility like another. Only anime will tell the truth. Soon I hope.

I meant to comment how the SJ issue with Malefic Stardust Dragon hinted ever so slightly on the 10th Anniversary Movie. Something told me there was more to it than just a blurb on the cards...

Ah, I see. Perhaps your feeling is exact. Only time could confirm it.

I sure as hell won't. Screw that.

The DVD with two versions would be great, I'm agree. Personnally, no matter the version, I will buy the DVD.

[Makoeyes987]

Oh, right. I forgot about that. :x

Of course, it still makes me wonder how they got into Paradox's possession if that were the case...

If he actually stole the real versions of the cards each duelist owned, do you know how horrible that would be? How in the world would ANY of them get their actual physical copies back? He blew up and died, taking his deck with him.

Eh, good point. XD A chase scene like that would be amusing to watch, though. It reminds me when Captain Jack Harkness spotted the TARDIS and just caught on it in time, riding on its outside across the Time Vortex. (Which would normally kill people... but Jack is special.)

Yes, that is exactly what Kaiba would do. Hell, Kaiba jumped a bridge on a motorcycle and crashed it, causing it to explode, yet he stood right back up and was ready to duel. All to save his lil' bro.

And speaking of Paradox and trolling, I'll just leave this here, again. /shamelessplug :U;



He trolled the cast of Sakiyomi JumBANG!, and by which extent, everyone watching that show. Granted, that was just meta.

I'm sorry but your video just appears as crack to me XD I don't...get it at all aside from the YGO, lol

Paradox: Breaking hearts since 1997 2007 20XX 51th Century... Eh, Timey Wimey Ball.

When did that happen? During Battle City, I assume? ... Oh, sorry, I'm still tied to that chair.

I'm sorry but your video just appears as crack to me XD I don't...get it at all aside from the YGO, lol

Lawl, that was half of the intent (hey, crack is good, and coming from me, you know that), but I hope I can clear up some of the parts. XD

Basically, the whole idea was that Paradox shared his VA with Hiruma from Eyeshield 21. Now, Hiruma is a real bastard, a Magnificent Bastard. Oh, and everyone calls him a devil. And Hiruma is also fond of hijacking TV broadcasts (hence the scene from Sakiyomi JumBANG!).

The scene with Samejima was because he shared the same VA with that dog, Cerberus, who is Hiruma's... not so gentle pet dog.

Jack shared his VA with Jumonji (the guy talking about winning right before Jack crashes).

The scene with Pegasus saying Unbelievable was just going for the "Most Gratuitous English" awards. That dude loves his English. MAI SISTAH

And lastly, the dream scene was there because we all know that Pegasus loves Funny Rabbit. That was basically Hiruma in a bunny suit. Because, y'know, Paradox would totally want to make his life hell for creating that goddamn game.

Yeah, um... I'm sorry XD

[Makoeyes987]

Paradox: Breaking hearts since 1997 2007 20XX 51th Century... Eh, Timey Wimey Ball.

You know, going by the pattern, I really want to say that 5Ds takes place in 2047. Don't know why but it just seems to fit.

When did that happen? During Battle City, I assume? ... Oh, sorry, I'm still tied to that chair.

WHY AREN'T YOU WATCHING YET? FFFFFFFFFFFFF

No, that happened during the Virtual World arc. ANOTHER AWESOME ARC YOU NEED TO WATCH. Yeah, its filler but its actually good now that you aren't waiting week to week for Battle City to get its ass back on.

LOL I thought it had something to do with the connection of voice actors and similarity but I just wasn't sure XD

Sadly I haven't seen those series though. Look kinda interesting'.

That's explain all. I think this video is nice! Thanks to have posted it Arynis!

[Arynis]

You know, going by the pattern, I really want to say that 5Ds takes place in 2047. Don't know why but it just seems to fit.

Well, the construction of the modern Domino City took a good while, no doubt. Sadly, we can only make estimations.

I'm still trying to pull my LJ entry together ;o; *is shot*

But I promised I'd watch it! Really, I will! Just give me ti--- wait, don't remove that pillow! Ow...

LOL I thought it had something to do with the connection of voice actors and similarity but I just wasn't sure XD

Sadly I haven't seen those series though. Look kinda interesting'.

Haha. XD

You should give it a try, at least to the first few episodes. Hiruma is freaking hilarious and he will kill you by the first episode. (Also, when you do so, have fun unseeing Paradox being Hiruma.) Basically it's AMERICAN FOOTBALL IS SERIOUS BUSINESS, but it's damn fun.

And you are welcome, Allana. XD

[Kyte]

Well totally got me on the card editing. Yeahh ignore my input on that card edit stuff XD

Video is soo crack XD Ahh how the 10th anniversary has sprout out so much crack. And randomly amongst this crack, I have seen the fetishes each series has gives take in the movie

DM: Violence that may be off-screen or not shown completely but you know it makes you cringe because you know exactly what happened *looks at the many people including children, and old Mutou, and Pegasus being crushed*

GX: No real true character developement and lack of backstory for motivation *looks at Paradox*
Paradox: *flips the bird*
Oh and very situational cards and perfect hand of cards

5D's: Dragons and CGI (and card games on motorcycles)

Oh and maybe to fill in that time thing, maybe they can throw in that 'Looking Back' on the three series where Aki and one or both of the twins were explaining and commentating and just add in more scenes (even explain to the kiddies about how Jaden is somehow 'not with the stars')

[cashman_11]

It'd be nice if they'd at least try and release Season 4 of GX online before this releases, it's only like 30 episodes, I'm sure it could happen. If 4Kid's does do subs, I 'm all for it, but I really hope they uses the characters original names and possibly something to explain cards names that were changed, but the later is a long shot. (Sort of like how some subbed releases put the english name above the japanese translation of the card.)

The movie looks great, I really hope they either translate the cards or leave them as-is.

[DarkDust_Dragon]

If Yusei did that, then they'd have instantly went back to the graveyard, since Stardust Mirage lasts until the end of the turn of activation.

I'm not sure if that's a continuity error in animation or some sort of new footage. But I'm definitely seeing something odd about that, as well.

From what I remember, they summon the cards destroyed last turn. Perhaps we're off, and in fact it brings back ones destroyed this turn; they only go to the Graveyard in your own End Phase. Or perhaps said consequence does not even exist, like Elemental Mirage. Until we see the film or an image of the card, we can't know.

Rainbow Dragon is a one of a kind card. No one in the world but Johan Andersen has Rainbow Dragon. So the fact Paradox is using it means he went back and stole it. Blue Eyes White Dragon is a "three of a kind" card...and only Seto Kaiba owns them. Again, he has to have stolen it from Kaiba. And finally the staff diary states that the Red-Eyes in Paradox's possession is Jounouchi's. They're all stolen. The latest issue of Shonen Jump even states that a "mysterious entity from the future" stole Stardust Dragon and Kaiba's spiritual partner card, Blue Eyes, while promoting the Malefic archetype.

Fine, fine. My only question is: why are they not black like Stardust? Did he steal the card itself, not just capture its energy?

Perhaps Paradox discovered the other Dragon cards in his own period. Perhaps Stardust Dragon had to be stolen specifically from Yusei because of its mystical properties (it was said the Signer Dragons took on the form of cards in this period), so it was a one of a kind. Of course, that makes Rainbow Dragon kind of Fridge Logic, because that's also supposed to be one of a kind. And for all we know, Kaiba's cards could have ended up in exhibition similar to Yugi's in GX.

It's true. And if it weren't for that Word of God saying that it's Jonouchi's Red-Eyes, I could argue it came from Fubuki (then again, his has the awesome alternate art).

Oh? In that case, my previous idea is just impossible.

A continuity error? It seems me too big. In a anime, It's possible, It happens rarely but it happens. But in a movie destined to the theaters, I don't think.

A new footage? It make sense. Why not? Perhaps also some added scenes showing Paradox's future?

That would be just awesome.

Paradox can have stole them in Judai's era first before to attack Judai. They would never accept to give these card to Paradox as a gift. Even not to his birthday?

Or Paradox can get them more far in the future in stealing them from their heirs for example.

Well, Darkness' view of the future shows cards dissolving, so... I kinda doubt the cards survived the post-apocalypse.

I didn't know that about the Shonen Jump. Interesting. I'm sure a promotional card will be release in same time the movie. SREBD or any other card would be great.

I hope sincerely the DVD will be realeased with original subs and dubbed version. It would be great. Even If the DVD is realeased with just dubbed version, I'll very happy anyways.

I saw that too; that's when I started to get the idea that the movie might be near. The rest, I agree.

Yeah, because Kaiba would totally leave his Dragon cards lying around or anywhere else, just so the unexpected guest can come and steal them. Do you honestly think Paradox could be capable of going stealth rogue on Kaiba, especially with that outfit of his? :V

• Paradox uses Stealth.
• Paradox uses Pickpocket on Kaiba.
• Pickpocket Success! Item stolen: [Blue-Eyes White Dragon].
• Paradox uses [D-Wheel].
• Paradox activates D-Wheel: Time Travel.
• Kaiba says: ...?
• /target Paradox
• Target not found.
• /who Paradox
• Target not found.
• Kaiba yells: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU---

Yeah, I haven't played WoW in years so it might not look entirely authentic. Also, I couldn't resist. Wanted to draw a comic of it but opted for the above instead.

You just reminded me of the joke JackAtlus and I did about WOW and Yugioh. "Penalty game, Mohawk grenade!"

[Makoeyes987]

Or perhaps said consequence does not even exist, like Elemental Mirage. Until we see the film or an image of the card, we can't know.

That's not what all the summaries say though. But you may have some point about them going to the graveyard during your turn's end phase. But something tells me there is a consequence/cost to using it.

Fine, fine. My only question is: why are they not black like Stardust? Did he steal the card itself, not just capture its energy?

As I told Arynis, he never actually summoned those cards, like he did Stardust. He only discarded them for the cost of summoning his Sin monsters. If they were summoned and infused with the power of Sin like Stardust, they'd probably turn black too.

The cluster**** that'd occur if he stole the actual originals of the cards would be pretty bad, seeing as how his deck goes to hell along with him, when he's defeated. He presumably stole the actual card spirits, ala Stardust.

It's true. And if it weren't for that Word of God saying that it's Jonouchi's Red-Eyes, I could argue it came from Fubuki (then again, his has the awesome alternate art).

The artwork alone would tell you its Jounouchi's. Exactly. Fubuki's Red Eyes is different than Jounouchi's.

Well, Darkness' view of the future shows cards dissolving, so... I kinda doubt the cards survived the post-apocalypse.

But why would you take Darkness' nihilistic prediction of the future of the world, where he presumed he would win against Judai, as truth...?

[Starry]

Now that you mention it, I don't think they've released a single DVD for 5Ds, have they?

I get the positives of digital releases, but they will never be a substitute for actually owning a series. I sure hope they remember that. Not that I'm advocating such a DVD release model, but they can still just release the dub dvds and turn a profit on those. They can't just...not release them. XD

Nope, hell they stopped publishing GX DVDs three years ago and barely halfway into season 1. I hope they give it a shot anyway since they're giving this movie a theatrical release instead of just airing it as a tv special and owning the Japanese DVDs can burn your wallet.

Well I mean just for the Con, anyway. Now it WOULDmake sense if they did edit since they had the new products there. I'm sure they'll be edited in the preview at the WC2010 and in the movie release here.

Eh, the standards for advertising the card game on tv is different from a movie. An example would be the Pyramid of Light movie where the cards were shown just how they look like in real life.

[63cohen]

We already solved the no edits in cards thing, there is no need to worry about ad time in a movie.

[DarkDust_Dragon]

That's not what all the summaries say though. But you may have some point about them going to the graveyard during your turn's end phase. But something tells me there is a consequence/cost to using it.

Again, we need to wait and see for ourselves.

As I told Arynis, he never actually summoned those cards, like he did Stardust. He only discarded them for the cost of summoning his Sin monsters. If they were summoned and infused with the power of Sin like Stardust, they'd probably turn black too.

No, that doesn't make sense. The card is black from the time he takes it, not from when it's summoned.

The cluster**** that'd occur if he stole the actual originals of the cards would be pretty bad, seeing as how his deck goes to hell along with him, when he's defeated. He presumably stole the actual card spirits, ala Stardust.

That works out the same way though. The clip of Paradox stealing Stardust shows that the original is left with a black spot where its art was; if he took the spirits with him, they stay that way for eternity.

The artwork alone would tell you its Jounouchi's. Exactly. Fubuki's Red Eyes is different than Jounouchi's.

Yes, very different.

But why would you take Darkness' nihilistic prediction of the future of the world, where he presumed he would win against Judai, as truth...?

What Darkness showed Judai is what the world would be like if humans continued to exist. He saw himself a saviour.

[63cohen]

Wait, the artwork of REBD tells us it is Jono's? Do we happen to have a picture of it?

[Makoeyes987]

No, that doesn't make sense. The card is black from the time he takes it, not from when it's summoned.

Yeah, and presumably it'd still be black thanks to Paradox still having it captured, even though he was able to get it back during the duel. I don't understand what you don't get about it. The card's spirit was stolen mid duel, and put in Paradox's deck. Paradox uses this card during the duel with the protagonists. Yugi steals it. It remains the same way it was before until the duel is over.

That works out the same way though. The clip of Paradox stealing Stardust shows that the original is left with a black spot where its art was; if he took the spirits with him, they stay that way for eternity.

For eternity? Yusei's Stardust Dragon returns to normal once Paradox is defeated.

What Darkness showed Judai is what the world would be like if humans continued to exist. He saw himself a saviour.

He only showed Judai a possibility. Darkness isn't infallible. As shown by the fact that all those people he captured chose to reject him and fight for their own survival and happiness, proving his prediction and understanding of people, dead wrong.

@cohenmarioman

The Red-Eyes Black Dragon Jounouchi has is the original artwork from Legend of the Blue Eyes. This one. This is the Red Eyes shown in Paradox's deck when he summons Sin Red-Eyes Black Dragon.

The one Fubuki has, is this one.

[63cohen]

Wow Pojo fails when discussing this movie and dub.

[DarkDust_Dragon]

It remains the same way it was before until the duel is over.

My point is that if the other cards were stolen in the same way, they'd be the same black, inverse-art cards. They're the normal ones.

For eternity? Yusei's Stardust Dragon returns to normal once Paradox is defeated.

That's... true.

Conceded.

Ending for 96 had the footage of Blue-Eyes and Red-Eyes being discarded.

[Makoeyes987]

My point is that if the other cards were stolen in the same way, they'd be the same black, inverse-art cards. They're the normal ones.

That's not necessarily true. If Paradox stole the original cards of each character, then for one, Kaiba, Johan, Jounouchi, and Ryo are out of their cards for good. The reason the cards aren't black is due to them not actually being infused with the dark power of Sin. Paradox using Stardust to blow up Venice in GX's time, and using it as his own, would corrupt it to the point it was black. All of the statements regarding Paradox stealing the monsters states he stole their spirits, the same way. Nothing states he stole the cards out of their decks

Stardust wasn't infused with that power of sin right away, but it was black right away. And it stayed that way. Because Paradox stole it, Stardust became one of his black cards. Logic dictates that the same applies for all others, unless he either acquired them another way or they had no spirits.

[Makoeyes987]

Again. It has to due with the fact of how dark Paradox makes the card. If you notice, certain Sin monsters are more corrupt than others, and "Sin Stardust Dragon" is the lead stolen monster he uses across time. And is used the most through the duel. Clearly he's corrupted it more than the others. The other "real" versions of the monsters are hardly ever used, and are never summoned during the duel.

The fact they aren't as black as the other characters' cards only shows that it isn't as corrupted. Nowhere does it state he actually stole the cards any differently. That'd make no sense because then the characters would be out of their cards.

[XERO_Slayer]

Technically, don't all Duel Monsters cards, especially the ones of Kaiba, Jyounouchi, or Johan have Spirits?

[Makoeyes987]

The staff diary even states that the Red Eyes stolen is Jounouchi's ace monster, not ace card. They don't actually say that it was the card itself that was stolen by Paradox. I would think that, coupled with how we see Paradox stealing said monsters, would definitively show that he's stealing their spirits, not the actual paper of the cards.

Cause that again, would create a humongous plot hole of how they would ever get their cards back again, with Paradox dying and exploding with them.

[63cohen]

That makes more sense. Using the spirits makes it connect to the Yugiverse more so than if he just stole the cards.

So you're saying that Paradox only stole the actual Stardust Dragon card from Yusei due to it having special qualities as Yusei's Signer Dragon? But he simply stole the Duel Spirits of the other cards?

That actually makes sense. But again, with Paradox dying and exploding as you said, would the Duel Spirits actually return to their rightful owners?

No, I'm saying he also stole Stardust Dragon's spirit too. He literally sucks the spirit into his deck of cards. Yusei's card is left blank.

And I would think the spirits would be freed and would return to their actual owners. That's what happens to Yusei's Stardust Dragon, after all.

[XERO_Slayer]

Ah I see. Yep, that definitely makes sense. He captures the Duel Spirits and corrupts it with "Sin."

[DarkDust_Dragon]

Again. It has to due with the fact of how dark Paradox makes the card. If you notice, certain Sin monsters are more corrupt than others, and "Sin Stardust Dragon" is the lead stolen monster he uses across time. And is used the most through the duel.

You do have a point there. Even iuts design reflects that; Sin Stardust has more Sin Armour, black teeth, and I'm gonna guess it even sounds different than Stardust.

[Arynis]

Slifer confirmed in the PTDC blog entry that the movie will have additional footage for the US theatrical release.

Also, those pricey figurines I talked about earlier: http://tomopop.com/sdcc-2010-good-sm...s--13581.phtml

And they are indeed gorgeous. *oogles them forever*

I didn't expect them to be quite this awesome. Also notice the Bandai card in front of the Blue-Eyes. That's probably the closest they've got to acknowledging the existence of that game.

Slifer confirmed in the PTDC blog entry that the movie will have additional footage for the US theatrical release.

As much as I'd like to think that the producers realised how popular this movie was and decided to increase the running length for both the US movie and the Japanese DVD, the way Slifer describes it as 'relevant additional footage' does make me worry if it's just clips from GX and 5D's episodes to make the movie make sense for US audiences.

[Arynis]

Haha, I didn't notice that. Nice!

Hmm, that could be. Besides, if they want to do additional footage, wouldn't they have to collect the Japanese staff again to dub the new scenes for the Japanese release? That's another thing that worried me regarding this whole footage business.

Not to mention that if anyone other than Kagami directed those footages, it would look so out of place.

Thanks for the news Ryusaki!

I hope these will be really news. But If they use old footage, I guess it will be very visible on the screen? People will see there a difference. It isn't interesting to 4kids because they know this longer version of the movie will be very expected by the fans.

The rep just said it was new animation added to the movie.
*neeew* *o*

[Arynis]

Oh, that's sweet! Thanks for the clarification, Slifer.

PS. Check my comment to you in that PTDC post. You've got to approach Takahashi at the con while you are cosplaying as Paradox, just for the heck of it!

More footage? Damn straight.

They are awesome. And f-ing huge.

The rep just said it was new animation added to the movie.
*neeew* *o*

Which, admittedly, could mean anything; but it doesn confirm what we all suspected, that more footage will be added. Whether they add a full 40 minutes? I highly doubt it; but even 10 makes it a full hour, which is better by a mile.

Thanks for the news Ryusaki!

It is possible to re-render old animation to make it look new. Disney does it all the time.

[63cohen]

Oh, that's sweet! Thanks for the clarification, Slifer.

PS. Check my comment to you in that PTDC post. You've got to approach Takahashi dressed as Paradox just for the heck of it!

He was a cross dress? O-O

As for additional footage, I assume the way it was described by the rep it would be totally new footage. But that still doesn't stop 4kids from adding footage from episodes as well. It is kinda like how the JPN of POL had 12 extra minutes. The shortest movie I have seen in theaters was 70 minutes or so, Surogates. What a great 70 minutes it was. But it felt awfully short.

[Arynis]

Ffffffff, I meant Slifer who is cosplaying as Paradox should approach Takahashi like that, who is reportedly at the con right now. Although Takahashi dressing as Paradox would be a new level of amusing, too... ...Damnit Cohen, thanks for the mental image. XD (Unless I'm misinterpreting your post, then nevermind. Well, that mental image won't go away anytime soon...)

Yeah, that could be possible. I liked POL's extra footages here and there.

Although Takahashi dressing as Paradox would be a new level of amusing, too... ...Damnit Cohen, thanks for the mental image. XD (Unless I'm misinterpreting your post, then nevermind. Well, that mental image won't go away anytime soon...)

Yeah, that could be possible. I liked POL's extra footages here and there.

Word it differently ... because the way you said it "approach Takahashi dressed as Paradox" I thought you meant he was dressed as Paradox.

[Arynis]

Oh, okay. XD Thanks for pointing that out. Edited it, will that do?

[DarkDust_Dragon]

He was a cross dress? O-O

As for additional footage, I assume the way it was described by the rep it would be totally new footage. But that still doesn't stop 4kids from adding footage from episodes as well. It is kinda like how the JPN of POL had 12 extra minutes. The shortest movie I have seen in theaters was 70 minutes or so, Surogates. What a great 70 minutes it was. But it felt awfully short.

That movie was only 70 minutes? I never went to theatres to see it. Wow. I never would have guessed that.

Takahashi is a little old to be Paradox, isn't he? At least Slifer is young enough... and did a great job on her costume.

It might have been 80 minutes, but that with the credits.

Also, those pricey figurines I talked about earlier: http://tomopop.com/sdcc-2010-good-sm...s--13581.phtml

And they are indeed gorgeous. *oogles them forever*

BEWD and REBD never looked that much EPIC! X) They'll definitely "shock the Americans"! xD

[DarkDust_Dragon]

Never count the credits, just the actual film's length.

Well, whatever. If the movie has more footage, and is thus closer to a true movie length, I'd say it's worth the wait. Hell, now we have something new to look forward to.

[XERO_Slayer]

More footage? This should be great.

[lollydove]

Now that you mention it, I don't think they've released a single DVD for 5Ds, have they?

Actually, they do. Looking up the Australian Madman online store brings this up:

Still, there aren't many there :U
Can't wait to see the English release! I'd like to see how 4Kids does it... I just hope at one point it'll be over here in AUS theatres :3 I remember when Pyramid of Light came out I got the promotional cards, so I wonder if they'll do that again for Bonds Beyond Time (or whatever they're calling it).

[Makoeyes987]

So what does everyone think the added footage will be like, and will include? I have to say, that I'm now even more excited, since there's gonna be new content for us. And here I was cursing our fate. XD

Just...please God, let 4kids have enough of a heart and sense to have a dual language option when released on DVD. Please. Please.

Going by how the story advances, I could see the following scenes expanded on. This could mean just a little addition (eg. in the Japanese POL, there was a brief shot from Pegasus and his Toons from Kaiba's POV) or a lengthier addition. Of course, not having seen the actual movie, we have no knowledge of how long any of these scenes are -- this is merely an estimation. I can't see the story being majorly rewritten, though.

• Judai wandering in the peaceful Venice when Paradox attacks him and chaos ensues. (The movie begins with Paradox already attacking Judai.) Then again, such a change would ruin the flow and the tension of the scene, since it esentially drops us into the middle of action.
• Yusei talking to Jack and Crow after he went off on his own and looked over Neo Domino City
• Paradox approaching Yusei, Jack and Crow.
• Yusei and his companions discussing the situation after they return from the Highway, Yusei having Stardust stolen.
• Yusei and Judai talking, if we assume that 4kids will expand the whole Yubel thing.
• The Domino City Duel Cup - maybe a few new shots here and there.
• Paradox's backstory could live with an expansion, but we don't know what "imagery of the experiment" covers. It could show the world getting destroyed and everything without us knowing it.
• Maybe a few new shots of the duel, eg. a shot from someone's POV.
• A few new shots of the aftermath of the duel, such as the continued Duel Cup which the protagonists merrily interrupted with Yubel's help.

It could be anything, really... but I don't think we can expect major additions and this will go on the POL route. We'll see, since it's too early to be able to deduce anything for now. There's at least half a year for the preparation of the English movie and we don't know what the new movie length will be, either.

I think that 4kids will the dub the fourth season of yugioh gx and the second season of 5d's.It's because that this movie is going to be released late.The movie has season four jaden,sherry and bruno.

It has Judai alright, but Bruno and Sherry... uh, no.

Then again, such a change would ruin the flow and the tension of the scene, since it esentially drops us into the middle of action. Unless, of course, it's Judai looking for something, then a noise/shadow, a laugh, Judai turns, absolute horror face, cut to sky, scream, explosion, cut to new scene.
• Yusei talking to Jack and Crow after he went off on his own and looked over Neo Domino City Maybe throw a couple card scnenes in for their "duel"
• Paradox approaching Yusei, Jack and Crow. What's to add?
• Yusei and his companions discussing the situation after they return from the Highway, Yusei having Stardust stolen. I assume you mean "having lost Stardust". He was not rsponsible for its theft.
• Yusei and Judai talking, if we assume that 4kids will expand the whole Yubel thing. I hope Yubel gets a more mature/less creepy voice. Her dub Season 3 voice is not a great supporting protagonist voice.
• The Domino City Duel Cup - maybe a few new shots here and there. Good idea.
• Paradox's backstory could live with an expansion, but we don't know what "imagery of the experiment" covers. It could show the world getting destroyed and everything without us knowing it. [b]Just be careful with that one; we don't want something that might defy the original.[b]
• Maybe a few new shots of the duel, eg. a shot from someone's POV. I'd wat a different attack animation of Sin Rainbow that coiling like a snake in the throes of death.
• A few new shots of the aftermath of the duel, such as the continued Duel Cup which the protagonists merrily interrupted with Yubel's help. Heh. Yeah, that'd be good.

I guess we can just speculate for now.

[63cohen]

Just thought of something. Who is going to voice Yubel. Looks like we will get a new Yubel.
