They can't really do anything that would change/advance the story in a movie until the series is over (ala FMA movie), so it basically is a filler with good animation :\

I don't think this is a spoiler but if it is, it's not that big a deal...I hope. I saw an (animated) avatar on another forum that had Naruto doing some wierd Rasengan looking thing with funky colors, When I asked what it was from the person said this movie, so expect what darkmetal was fearing.
=S.....That does not sound very reassuring.............And I wish I didn't hear that.....
im just hoping the rainbow rasengan NEVER makes another appearance. But, i mean if the story is decent, and they do justice to gaara's sand animations, then it might just be worth the price of admission.Originally Posted by Yukimura
I was going to say that it would be very hard to make this movie bad when it had Gaara and Shikamaru in it, but when I read about the filler eps I think they are fully capable of making a movie with Gaara and Shikamaru in it suck.
Then again, I think I would be happy if they gave Gaara a fair amout of screentime, make him do some sweet moves, and DON'T screw up his character.. that shouldn't be só hard to do, would it?
Naturally, I'd prefer a movie with a great story and all that, and given the 'time' in the series (after the Sasuke chase-arc and before the time-leap), I think they could do more with the movie story-wise than they did with the first movie.
And I want a main villain that is Rasengan-resistant.
I can't help feeling a bit pumped when it comes to this movie. Sure, we all know how crappy these things generally are, and we also know how horrendous movie 1 was - but still, good animation + nice theme song ("Ding! Dong! Dang!" might have the worst name EVER but damn it's a nice tune) + Gaara/Shikamaru = watchable.
At least in theory.
Maybe I'm just getting old.
Oh and I renamed this topic so it can be used for full discussion whenever the movie is out.
I still give Movie 1 props for giving us the only useful Sakura technique EVER.

Dont know how good it is
since it april second let me point out this is fake as i already fell for Eureka batch release and i 99% sure it fake (i won't risk with 1%)
As far as I can see based on the info I can find, it's still a little less than a month to the release date of the DVD. So, that would need to be some sort of rip of a leaked DVD, if it was real. And under such circumstances it's dubious, April 1st or not.
6 more days, hope fully it will come out on 28th...
Finally its here.

This is a prime example of a contentless post. Put more than .1 second of thought into posting.

I have been into the dark to long
We worked oh so hard. Hope you all enjoy.
P.S. It was totally worth it for Gaara.

Awesome! Will download it as soon as I get back from the bar (i.e tomorrow because I'll probably pass out)
Thanks for the hard work as usual, lafnear (& the rest of DB of course).
Downloading right now, finally something that might not be as mind-numbing as fillers!
I'm afraid awesome isn't quite the right word here...Originally Posted by Terracosmo
Technically this was better than most of the fillers. The drawing quality was similar to the first movie, and at least my not-so-ciritical eyes didn't catch anything gross in animation.
However, the plot was worse than in the first movie, in my opinion. The beginning didn't actually look so bad; it looked even quite fine, but when the story really got going, it also got much worse. Just like in so many filler arcs. There was fortunately quite good action here, especially with Gaara (heh, this shouldn't be a surprise). Actually the Sand ninjas saved a lot in this movie. It's good they were there. And no, Gaara didn't lose a bit of his cool factor. He was the best character of this flick.
Well, speaking of action the last battle was strange. I still don't quite know what happened in the last attack. Only I know I didn't like what I saw. Not only did it end the climax battle of this film far too easily, but also with lacking sense of victory (well, these two things might be the same). And what Yukimura said earlier... It's unfortunately very true, and the reason why I still don't know what happened during that attack.
Well, despite all that, it was nice to watch. Definitively better than the regular filler arcs we have been made to suffer for so long. But I can't say this would have given me the inspired feeling the manga based Naruto episodes never failed to do.
who cares, if it's better then the fillers then it's watchable.
I however, didn't bother watching the first movie.....
R.I.P Captain America.
Technically its already the 30th on Japan (3 am by the time of this post). That means just two days to sub this. Wow. Thnks a lot lafnear (& DB staff).
I was thinking of buying this movie just for the gift gashapon...
or maybe now that the movie is out I can find it alone on ebay... hmmm...
EDIT:
(if anybody finds where to buy that gashapon alone, I will be very grateful)
