Appleseed (2004)

[Y]

The ridiculously stylish and fun movie Appleseed has been subtitled and can be obtained at everyone's favorite evil Bit Torrent sites. Run and get this film now - I'll spare you a drawn out review and skip straight to the summary.

While the movie falls prey to more than a few bad Japanese film cliches, it is both a generally entertaining film and a superb technological achievement. It's (as far as I know) the first time 3D models cel-shaded to resemble 2D animation have been used exclusively in a movie. It's amazing, it's brilliant for a first-time effort, and it's what every studio and their brother is going to be scrambling to imitate.

Sexy screencaps follow:

Get it now.

Why is it only .03mb on tokyotosho?, I doubt that's the whole movie.

OK The one on Nova is 0mb, am I missing something here???

[Mut]

it's 1.4 gigs and i gotta say...

this is the most incredible thing i've seen in a while. just absolutely mind blowing. wow.

[immortality]

is there a fansub for this....i went to the site and they have a rar file for english subs..but the torrent only seems to be japanesse?

[Swallow Your Soul]

Aeon - the 0.3mb thing you mean is the zip of the subtitle files to add to it. So anyone who downloaded the raw can add the subs. The 1.4gb DVD rip is a raw as far as I know. Whenever I d/l the srt files they never worked when I tried to convert them to ssa but I just found out how to do it - so once I've downloaded this I can add the subs myself for once i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

This film looks amazing from what I've seen, can't wait...

[tensai]

can someone provide a link for this, i would love to watch this
since its based off of one of the mangas written by M. Shirow, the same guy responsible for GITS

edit: so its not in avi format and doesnt have subs?
guess ill just have to wait

Appleseed DVD Rip Raw (http://66.90.75.92/suprnova//torrents/3105/Appleseed.2004.DVDRip.XviD.AC3-NDRT.torrent)
Sub Files (http://www.doughardy.com/Appleseed/) (in .srt format, get vobsub or use VLC player)

It IS in .avi and there ARE English subs, where the hell you got the impression that they weren't is beyond me.

[tensai]

it was a question, i was guessing - it wasnt a fact that i was stating

anyways, i cant install stuff, so i cant install those players/programs
ill just wait for a subbed version, instead of adding on subs to the raw


edit in reply to below:
alright, ill give it a try
if there arent any subs, ill just delete and wait patiently (but im gonna get my own comp soon so i could just load it into that

thanks for providing the links anyway

[Y]

This *is* the subbed version, chief. At least, the only one you can get. Also, you can probably run this out of the box, just try it.

Everyone go get this movie...NOW. It's the best looking anime movie you'll ever see...well until they make something better...if that's possible.

[Mut]

double post again, and you're gone.

[Aeon]

Alright I downloaded the 1.4raw and the srt subs, now what do I do?

[Board of Command]

Anyone else getting extremely slow download speeds? I can't seem to go above 12 kb/s

I use BS player... there is an option to import the srt file

I had a pretty descent download speed (~100 kb/s), but a firewall can slow bittorent to a crawl. Or maybe it's just not well seeded...

[Neef]

So...you can't ever post twice w/o someone posting in between? Even if they're like 3 hours apart? Just to clarify.

[Assertn]

you're supposed to use the edit button to add to your post if nobody has posted after you

[Nem]

Get it...now.

[Neko Sniper]

nice shots but unfortunately the link to the subs is not working for me. Anybody can help?

[Nem]

http://www.doughardy.com/Appleseed/

That link works for me.

[Raven]

Can people please seed the 1.4gb file? It's going so slooooow, slower than dialup. Now that's bad.

[KameronFrye]

Day 3: 68%. D/l hasn't spiked above 20k once. I started it back up at like 7am, I've gotten 300mb since then. I have uploaded like 1gb. This blows. I'm getting like 11kb/s on d/l and sending a good 30-35 on up. Ridiculous.

And stop showing screen caps, it's bad enough that this download teases me everytime I look at it and it moves slow, stop gloating that you've seen it. =b

[Raven]

And now the tracker seems to be down. Aaaaaargh I'm never going to see this. i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif

[Board of Command]

Pretty nice movie. I had to wait about 30 minutes before the speed hit 70+.

[tensai]

on suprnova, theres quite a few versions of appleseed there now
does anyone know if the one that says subbed on it really has the subs or do you have to add it in yourself?

imma download that one and check it out, to see if there are subs or not

i was downloading for about 3 hrs and it only got less then 10%, at an avg of 9kbs

[KameronFrye]

Heh, I had to redownload the first CD of it, since mine was corrupt. And today/tomorrow were the perfect days for me to watch them, since I'm off work until Friday. I can't figure out how to get vobsub to pop up on Core Media, anyone got the time to walk me through how to get it done?

[Goingin]

Appleseed just poured onto my hdd when i downloaded it day before yesterday, 90 kb/sec i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif
Seen it yesterday, and......... DAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN!!!

It's so good.. undescribable

[GLS]

is anybody else having problems with the audio on this? I downloaded the 2cd version btw, if it matters.
I cranked the volume up, but the characters talk so soft.

[Nem]

What player are you using? Do you have AC3 filters installed?

[GLS]

I'm using BS Player.

I googled the AC3 filter, and downloaded it. Works great! i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif
Thanks for the help, Nem

EDIT: Watched the movie last night, and WOW! What an awesome movie! i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif
On a side note, this ripped from animenewsnetwork.com:


LA-based Axis Entertainment has teamed up with Micott & Bazara, the creators of Appleseed, to co-produce two Appleseed sequels. Planned is an Appleseed TV series and a possible live-action film.

[KameronFrye]

I still need help getting the subtitles on this to collaborate into the actual picture. I've got Core Media, but I can't get Vobsub to run. It ran with matroska files, but my mkv's are all acting quirky on Core now. I've got Windows Media as well, if that'd be any easier. If it'd be even easier to get another player and run it through that, then fair enough. I've had the damn thing for like 4 days now and I want to understand it when I watch it. >;/

[Goingin]

Use BSplayer (http://www.bsplayer.org), works fine

[Assertn]

wow, it took 3 days for some people to dl? it took me about a whim to decide to dl it, and an hour of unrestricted university downloading to obtain the whole thing

mmm.....unrestricted T1

[Trip]

Was really good, a definetate recommend. I think I'll have to watch the original again (only seen the once, years ago...) to see how the story compares i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif

Thanks...starting dl now.

[Munsu]

for those still trying to get it.... animeskyscraper made a release... http://www.purpleyoda.com/tracker/torrents/[ASS (http://_Appleseed_2004.torrent]http://www.purpleyoda.com/tracker/torrents/[ASS]_Appleseed_2004.torrent)

[Aeon]

Does this one already have the subs? I tried using the 2disk version and vlc was missing half the sentences and bsplayer doesnt work for me i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif.

[Munsu]

yeah... the subs should already be muxed

[Aeon]

OMG it's just not met for me to watch this movie, if the animeskyscraper version has subs my vlc and core player wont show them. I was thinking bout watching this my whole day while dealing with all the annoying late shoppers.

i got it from snova 2 days ago before it went down, it wont play right in BS player BUT IT WORKS FINE in Zoom Player



for all thoes with issues with the sub try it in zoom player

[Board of Command]

This is a great movie, but sadly it's totally overshadowed by the hype of Advent Children. Despite that, I think AC will still rip this apart.

[Neko Sniper]

Watched the movie yesterday and I have to say it's AWESOME!! I got the ASS version and the subs worked fine for me (used the Xine player under Linux). The only thing that bothered me was that they called her Duenan instead of Dunan all the time, but oh well... she really kicks ass, no matter how her name is spelled. i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif So go watch it guys!

Sadly, AC is coming out in about 6 months, so the competition isn't really that fierce.

[Munsu]

After having the movie sitting in my hard drive since it came out, I finally decided to sit down and watch it...

I liked the movie alot...

One thing that bothered me is that I still don't like coputer designed characters... they fail to show emotion and their movements looks sluggish most of the time...

Aside from that, the action sequences looked geat...

Now I can't wait till the TV series and the Second movie come out, I think they're slated for sometime in 2006

[Munsu]

Just giving some confirmations about the sequel movie and tv series coming:

Appleseed sequel, TV series in production (2006-03-16 05:03:29)
Production is underway for a sequel to the Appleseed film, as well as a TV series based on the franchise, according to an interview with Masamune Shirow in the latest Kikan-S magazine. LA's Axis Entertainment first announced the plans in December 2004. Source: Shirowledge [ discuss (2 posts) ]
