This is one of my all time favorite anime, partially because it's unapologetically indulgent, but also because it has healthy lessons on brotherhood and grief, as well as optimism in the face of stacked odds.
I do recommend the show over the movie, as the movie glosses over some important plot points in favor of extending the epic battles, but they're both good.
I'm among those that saw the first movie last Wednesday. Unfortunately, it did kinda disappoint me, but I was really only watching it out of obligation, waiting patiently for the second one. Best part about it was the prologue piece, which wasn't something in the series.
Wtf is 4D supposed to be? How does that even make sense? Unless they've figured out a good way to make a 360 degree viewing experiences in cinemas, then we haven't even properly mastered 3D viewings yet.
Been over a decade since I watched the series and movies. Probably due for a rewatch sometime soon. I feel bad I won't be able to catch it in theaters. I feel like all sorts of movie showings like this just slip right by me because you kind of have to keep your ear to the ground to find out about a lot of them.
Unfortunately out of the state for work at the moment so it would be tough to swing. I'm not against going to things like that alone, and even actually like it every now and then for a change of pace, but I generally am not free until mid to late evening and by then I just want to go rest. Nearest showing is likely 45 minutes away by car anyway.
I really hope it does well. I love when movies like this have releases over in the States even if they're very small. My favorite is when they give away little things like a mini poster or a shikishi or something at the showings.

If Cuties had been a movie, Hollywood would have given it a dozen Oscars.
Episode 11 was awesome. The movie didn't do it justice.

So are the movies retelling later episodes with higher budgets?
