someone said that at the end of the first movie will be the scene where Griffith and Guts fought with Zodd at the tower. but as far as i know, skull knight hasn't appeared by that time and the movie showed him already. Could anyone explain this to me? Because I really hope that the first movie would end where the anime series had ended to.
@mau345 The old anime series was 25 episodes of 30 mins each... thats like 12 and a half hours of anime. This movie would be 3 hours at the very most...
@harizotoh7 really? i've misunderstood it all along. i thought the first movie was about golden age where the ending was the eclipse. But it's actually only golden age in the 3 movies.....tsk, and then will they actually continue making movies for the rest of the story? cause this is what fans were actually waiting for, a production for the rest of the story.... i'm a bit disappointed if this were true, but better than nothing at all right? and i bet this will still be an epic movie series.
@mau345 The news story say it's going to be an adaption of "the entire story". Some preview pics shows Puck, and Tard-Casca. I guess if these films do well, they'll keep adapting the entire series. I'm hoping for a Lost Children movie.
@harizotoh7 i think they wouldn't... the lost children had a lot of chapters but its impact to its overall story is too little and it looks like they won't be doing that. i think its better that after these 3 movies, make an anime series so that everything will be shown without any thoughts of conserving too much time or money. Let the japanese handle it. if they can make other boring animes weekly, why not berserk? (it's actually one of my frustrations)
Also, the character design seems to have been degenerated to conform to a more generic modern anime style. A shame because Miura's original character designs really stood out. I mean, at 0:03 who the hell is that? I know it's Casca but she now also looks the same as about 5 other anime girls that come to mind right away... rrrgh now I need to see the whole movie!
@cloudani couldnt agreed more....even since japan steps in year 2000 the whole anime just flop into either 3d or cg and worst than the cell painting back in 90s....no more particles and lack of details
I'm stoked for this and will certainly pay to see it, but there is just no denying it. The cg Zodd and horse riders look like shit. It's the same with the new Evas/Angels in Rebuild. While we get really clean, awesome looking animation in parts, these cg zombies trundle in and make it look plain silly. Their frame rate doesn't even match up to the rest of the animation, and it always looks all herky-jerky.
well ya i believe everyone feels the same but the series took like 5-7 years to animate because its all hand drawn where this we might get a release like every year since its motion captured. Change is good especially since its berserk
Im kinda happy and sad about this. Happy because of a proper epic remaster of the fantastic original score. I'm also a little sad because, the beauty of the original Berserk was that the animation was in fact so pure and good that you could develop entire sequences with a single frame. Call me an old fogey, but I preferred the simple old hand drawn long cell take stuff. Eva and Berserk forever.
@Cornwiggle not that close; the character designs (ESPECIALLY Griffith) are much closer to the manga style in the upcoming film than in the older anime (the characters in the anime are more stylishly angled than the manga). I do agree, however, that the CG (ESPECIALLY Nosferatu Zodd) can be distracting.
@reflexioneternelle It sucks, but it's to keep the cost of production down. If they didn't incorporate CG, we probably wouldn't even get any animation at all. Them's the breaks.
@DukeDumas a fansub group will have a rough translation the night it comes out, with a better one to follow within a week, just like they did with ff7ac. just find a group who's planning to do it and you'll be all set
Mine is also bigger than the standard size. I got mine with 4 other friends ( we all got it in different spots) mine is on the middle on my back along the spine.
:)
Did you see the 2 min trailer yet? Looks sooooooooo good!
@Raevynwhyte Yeah, it'll be awesome. If I ever become a movie director (very unlikely) I would do a live action movie just as awesome as the comic :o)
@Onimusha893 it was done xxx years after the game. FF7 was meant to be alone, its story is complete and enough. FF7 Compilation is just a money-maker, SE just wanted to attracts teenagers and some so-called fans (I'm a huge fan and i hate these games/movie).
I wonder how long it will take to dub this movie once it's out. I'll watch it regardless but I thought the original VA's were pretty good. Can't beat the original.
In Russian conversational speech it's called like "3d". And it look like a dreamcast graphic or... like that ps2media.ign.com/ps2/image/tmnt_062403_08_640w.jpg.
Haven't you seen Appleseed or Advent Children? - No, I haven't.
I wouldn't say it's the quality of a dreamcast game. The polygon count is much, much higher, with big, clean textures and a high framerate. Lots of motion. Some parts with 3D animation look good, and others stand out too much, but I wouldn't say it looks bad. I'll judge when it's out and refined more.
And... if there's any reason to watch Advent Children, it's for the animation. It'll make absolutely no sense plotwise if you haven't played FFVII, though.
@xsilverspringx Advent Children makes less sense if you've played the game.
They just took the characters from FF7 and then threw every anime cliche they could into that movie. It's like, market researched and shit. The scene where they kill Bahamut (clearly the most popular summon, albeit totally irrelevant to the plot) is maybe the worst thing I've ever seen.
@SovetFullon I think you mean CG, not 3d...and I think it looks great. Haven't you seen Appleseed or Advent Children? This kind of animation is incredible.
