The first two movies are actually the retelling and compilation of the original TV series, but with upgraded animation and possibly new animation as well, like most recap anime movies. The two movies will be playing back to back with each showing.
Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Houston and San Francisco are the lucky US cities to be chosen for this theatrical release. Aside from Los Angeles, the movies will play for only one night on October 20th. While people in L.A. have almost a week to catch the movies in theatre. Check the schedule on Aniplex's official site.
So why am I suddenly posting about this? Well perhaps I may go to one of these cities and go there just so I can watch these movies :D I almost did this when the Suzumiya Haruhi movie came out and it was going to play in San Francisco two years ago! XD Here's hoping for Madoka showing this time!
I was in San Jose at the time of the Haruhi movie. I did not know it until it was the next day about it. Go do what you need to do to get there to LA!
ReplyDeleteOh! That's annoying knowing that was happening AFTERWARDS >_< I'm going to try to make it happen this time :D
DeleteOooh, I didn't even know there were movies. I still need to check out the manga. I've watched the TV series, and loved it.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like it :D These two movies will be about the same as the TV series, but the third movie will be a completely new story, they say :)
DeleteHow I hope I can watch the Haruhi movie too. It must be great.
