Yugioh Movie

[Latioscatcher]

anyone saw the movie i got blues eyes shining dragon and pyramid of light!\.

[Soma Peries]

I saw it on Thursday. It was really good! I got Pyramid of Light and the Magician guy, im too lazy to go look at his name :P

[Frostweaver]

Let's just call that movie...

"They make Pokemon movie's plot look Hollywood-style."

Besides the fact that broken broken yet not real cards are used (best example is perhaps the movie-version of Pyramid of Light where it just destroys all God cards), we know close to nothing about Anubis and so on... I mean there is a reason why Japan didn't bother with this movie hmm?

[aaaaaa]

The only card of any real use introduced in that movie is that Deck Destruction Virus.
I would love to get my hands on that card.

[Ryoutarou]

Havent seen it yet and I'm not going to. I'd rather watch Garden State...does that make GS sound like a bad movie?

[Pogiforce-14]

Deck Destruction Virus is too uber for production.

And Kenny, the reason why Japan never aired that movie before is because it was speciifcally made for a western audience and was made in America, not in Japan. And they tell you plenty about Anubis in tHe movie if you pay attention. :\

[Frostweaver]

The only card of any real use introduced in that movie is that Deck Destruction Virus.
I would love to get my hands on that card. Err... deck destruction virus of death is the closest real card I can find, as I can't find that card which discards 10 cards from opponent's deck like the one Kaiba used... (if such a card does exist, ok everyone plays deckouts and ggkthx). It is one of the cards like the Pyramid of Light that got its effect changed when it's released as the real card. Unless

Thank GOODNESS that card doesn't exist... or maybe it's an upcoming promo... but so far so good.

{Spoiler spoiler text}















EDIT: No not really... all they say about Anubis is "he's some guy from the past who got defeated by the Pharoh and his plans got stoped." Now first of all, what plan besides "a dangerous one for the safety of the world?" How did Anubis and the tomb find its way into the Millenium Puzzle is also darn well unknown, unless you say that the second when Yugi finish the puzzle (which is also the moment when Anubis is freed), but I'm not really buying that as it seemed like Yami Yugi droven everything out of the way in that second. Also how did Anubis call real monster into life is also a mess, and then suddenly normal people (the white hair pretty boy who's so cool! Err I mean... aka Pegasus and friends) can start doing the same thing. That part made no sense... The way how little Yugi throws the dagger of fate is also a bit... stupid in terms of how it breaks Anubis's enchantment.

But then the part that bugged me the most is still the use of unreal cards with unreal effects (what the heck how come our Pyramid of Light is so much "different" than Kaiba/Anubis's?)

[Pogiforce-14]

That card does not actually exist. In my opinion, it was used only inte movie so teh duel would not be drawn out. They wanted to emphasize how close Yugi comes to losing by having him run out of deck, but if the duel was played normally then it would be a long long movie, as nowadays any single duels takes two and half hours worth of television time. By having Kaiba use Deck Destruction Virus, Yugi would be pressed to the brink sooner, without having so much of a duel it tires the viewers.

[Frostweaver]

Well still not necessary to make a card THIS UBAR. Since the magic of the anime/movie allows them to draw any card to their desire, if the developper really wants to speed up the movie's pace, they can do that easily. I was very satisfied and enjoyed Pegasus and Kaiba's battle a lot, as it got some real strategies that don't rely on "anime only" cards as well (and on top of that, my favorite YGO character finally duels again! Yay! Go Pegasus!) That battle is pretty much flawless unlike most anime battles with the exception of how Pegasus got out BETDragon and TSSkull on the same turn... but that's probably just me missing something as I got mesmerized by the fact that they made a Toon Gemini Elf ;_; It's beautiful! Now Toon Decks can be played casually without being defeated in 6 turns or so because you no longer have to rely on those ugly mermaids (now instead you get to last 10 turns until Toon World get feather dustered! Yay!)

If they want to make it so that Yugi is in a dire situation, 5 seconds worth of numerous monsters being blasted apart by BEUD/BESD's attack will make the same effect already, and that's without any ubar cards too.

[aaaaaa]

There is a card in the Japanese Deck called the 'Deck Destruction Virus of Doom', but it's not the same.

Did you read the description of the card in the movie, though? It's not as uber as it seems. It's along the lines of 'everytime a card on your side with less than 500 attack is sent to the graveyard, remove 10 random cards from your opponants deck'. Which does tend to limit it's use. The only way to keep abusing the **** out of it is to have a card like the Saggi the Dark Clown, like Kaibi did ^_^

[Frostweaver]

Err... 10 cards are 1/4 of a deck, and there's 3 of those trap cards? And it's not hard to base a deck around it, after throwing in Needle Worm, book of moon and book of taiyou. Deck destruction, morphing jars and cyber jar and yay you're dead! Kaiba didn't use Sogi, but an even better clown that's with the movie cards. It's one of those that summon another one of its kind out.

For YGO, if there's one way to abuse it, then it's bad enough. Just go to those Chaos Gatherings (aka "tourneys") and look at all those envoy deck running around free. In a tourney now, there's quite a good chance to say that on an average there's 75% players playing chaos decks.

(and yes Deck Destruction Virus of Death exist, and it's just the old Crush Card, and that's a lot weaker and much more bearable)

[クリス]

Wow, I didn't know your were a Yu-Gi-Oh fan a1337a. o_0

So I'm assuming the movie is worth seeing then?

[Frostweaver]

If you really like YGO, then go ahead and also grab a promo card along the way. If you're just "hmmm..." about YGO, then don't bother in my opinion...

(Yeah I never knew that a1337a likes YGO too...)

[aaaaaa]

Nor did Abby, she was surpised I was into it as well.
Turns out I've still got some secrets up my sleeve ^_^

[Latioscatcher]

kool uber and u guys are yugioh fans too lol

[Pogiforce-14]

IN my opinion the movie was great. The duels were played out just right, and teh cards looked real for a change. At least on the faces. And certain cards were played like tehy should have been, and Anubis bringing the monsters to life seemed like a good plot twist to me. All in all I really enjoyed teh movie, and wouldn't mind seeing it again. I'm surprised there are so many stiff critics on PC, you guys need to jsut enjoy teh movies adn quit being so picky. Picky people never have fun. :\

Have you even watched Battle city? Most of the time the monsters are real...wait nevermind that got taken out of the dub dident it?

[Pogiforce-14]

In battle city the monsters are just holograms. And I can't expect the Japanese version to be that much different, because then teh dubbers would ahve had to change almost everything to make teh cartoon what it is in america.

God cards, and the Monsters in Noah arc were all real even though they were virtiual in the us version. Dosent matter, I've read all 38 volumes of the manga so I'm happy.

[Pogiforce-14]

Well in english, teh god cards where techincaly real, but still holograms at the same time. I know that soudns weird, but it's teh way it worked. And it Noah's World, teh monsters were still holograms, but because they were downloaded into teh virutal world, teh monsters were real ina sense in the fact that the mosnters could still hurt the humans. :\

Well the god cards have allways been real. Something about it later on saying when ever they are played in any game they manifest themselfs.

[Pogiforce-14]

The hint that they weren't rruly holograms was when slifer and obelisk destroy themselves in teh fight between Kaiba and yugi, they stretch out and dissolve slowly, and Kaiba says 'kaiba corp holograms aren't capable of doing this!" And then they both got pulled into a vision of the past. And also int eh shadow duel between Yami Marik and Yami Yugi, Marik fused himself with ra and he was literally on top of Ra's head. If it was just a hologram, he wouldn't ahve been able to do that.

In the origenal version this is what shadi says at the start of the final 8
"When the cards of mass power...the god cards are used they become real not only a perjection but real beast." Or something along thoese lines.

[Pogiforce-14]

Shadi said something to Ishizu, but I don't recall. Teh god cards were real and yet at teh same time not real. Tehy obviously were thinking cards, as Ra had struck down odion and Joey out of anger taht a copy of him was being played.

Yes, but I'm taking it from the manga which is more acurate then either form of the anime.

[Pogiforce-14]

It's all a translation. I read the manga too, but anime will always be different. Manga doens't ahve moving shots, so hey don't ahve to worry so much about catching certain things like an anime does. And since a majority of the fan base is based on teh anime, frankly taht is teh translation that is most important when referencing the movie to anything else.

Ya, but I can read Kanji a little so I know for myself what is going on. The manga is the real source the anime is just a adaption of the origenal.

[Pogiforce-14]

Whether teh manga is the original or not, the anime is what the movies are from.

[Ryoutarou]

Nope, wrong again. Most movies of a certin sereis have nothing to do with the anime. Most of the digimon movies are standalones as are all of the pokemon movies. Usally only things like XXholic and X have movies that acutally matter becuse they are the only not manga form the thing gets.

[Pogiforce-14]

That's not the point. Of coures they're stand alones.That's because they are based off the storyline as it flows in the Anime. That is my point right there.They are based off the anime, and for that reason, that is all that matters when it comes to comparison.

[Mullet]

Oh a heated aguement.

It still flows with the anime it is right after the Battle City tourney, where as Pokemon movies are hard to place in the storyline.

[Ryoutarou]

Yes...and whats the anime based off of?

[Mullet]

The anime is based off the manga.

[Ryoutarou]

The anime is based off the manga.
I was kinda being sarcastic,lol. But thats what I mean though anime really dosent matter.

[Pogiforce-14]

Teh anime may be based off teh manga, but in teh end it's different translation and it is that translation that goes into movies. If you dilute soda enough it is no longer soda, it is just flavored water. Case and point.

[Jackson148]

I watched it and i got the magician

[Pogiforce-14]

And? :\ what did you think of it?

[Mullet]

I liked the movie it was weird though.

You're on late Poji, why.

[Pogiforce-14]

I'm sneaking. Don't tell.

[Mullet]

Okay I won't be carefull.

Off topic Poji you should become my evil accoplice, since I'm becoming an evil genius!!!

[Pogiforce-14]

You can't be teh evil genius, my duel masters deck is better than yours. Plus Irun pure darkness, not you. I'm kokujo. :D

[Mullet]

I'm not talking abou DM I really mean it.

[Pogiforce-14]

You can't be evil, you can only be crazy. Your semi evil. your quazi evil. Your the diet coke of evil. just one callory, not evil enough. :D

[Mullet]

Sure I can be evil it sounds as though you love Austin Powers movies, by the way you forgot the magarine of evil!!!

I'm an evil pyro loving genuis!!!

[Pogiforce-14]

Alright, now your moving in onmy space: i'm teh pyro! Fire is my element!

[Mullet]

Hey more than one person can like fire Ex. me, and Brett!!!

I also like water but fire is cool and deadly!!!!!!!

[Pogiforce-14]

Who here ran three different type personality test in a row and answered them honestly only to get fire each and everytime? Me! And who runs tehstrongest fire light deck among duel masters? ME! You're pyroness cannot match my pyroness. And we are so off topic. :P

[Mullet]

Well I don't know where to take them, me and John have created the DM masters I'm light, you're fire he's nature, Brett's water, and NIck's dark all five civs covered!!!

The movie was weird.

[Pogiforce-14]

What I liked most was how real teh cards were, and when yugimet joey adn tristen in the millenium puzzle, he ran right by them and siad. "less talk, more running!" That was hilarious! :laugh: And then there was when Joey said he was the Godfather of games. That was pretty funny too, especially with teh accent he used. :D

[Mullet]

I was going to say that I when I first saw you're post.

I guess great minds think alike lol!!!

[Pogiforce-14]

"I may not be the King of Games, but I'm... uh... I'm the Godfather of Games, Kapeesh?"

[Mullet]

That was funny, it was of the funnyest things Joey said!!!

[Pogiforce-14]

Joey says a lot of funny things. What I liked a lot was how Pegasus kept trashing Kaiab, and making fun of him Kaiba" I know how the card works. What do you think I am, an amateur?"

Pegasus-"Please Kaiba, you're not that good."

and then: Pegasus: "I doubt anyone could survive such a feirce trouncing like that and come back to fight again. Well, except Kaiba of course. Ooh, did I say that out loud?"

[metagrossman]

I have only just heard about the movie as i was going past burger king two days ago! i saw a banner advertising for toys with every meal! when is the release date?

[Pogiforce-14]

The movie's been out for two weeks now. :\

[Charizard Master 2003]

I liked the movie and the promo card I got, which was Sorcerer of Dark Magic.

[Latioscatcher]

u guys can u show me the card the magician wat it loooks like and uh dude the movie hella cool in the jap versionEHEH

[PsychicGuy]

I'm sorry to say that raters gave the the movie a big fat F I personally liked the move, I got a Blue Eyes Shining Dragon and a sorcerer of dark magic.

[Ryoutarou]

Allmost every critic gave it a bad review. They do it with most animated movies, look at what they said about Pokemon movie one...and that was one of the best pokemon movies ever.

[Entei Artist]

I loved the movie! (basicly cuz Seto was in it) I got the Sorcerer of Dark Magic. :( I wanted the BESD!

[Thunder wolf]

I saw yu-gi-oh the movie it was awesome.
I have blue eyes shining dragon,pyramid of light and watapon.

If you look up in other cards I believe, ou shoudl find somewhere a topic entitled Yugioh Movie Promos. In there I put up scans of all four movie promos you can get by buying a ticket.

ANd yeah, Critics always give them bad reviews. Part of the reason why I never listen to them. :P

[Jinona]

I went and saw the movie and don't get me wrong I'm huge Yu-gi-oh fanatic but I couldn't help but laugh the entire time because a. it was so *beeping* Americanized it wasn't even funny (that didn't make sense) b. joey was so funny and c. Kaiba was so blunt about everything like this Kaiba:"spare me the bull about the heart of the cards Yugi" my mother kept leaning over and asking me is it almost over? and you like this show? as I lean over and fill in the details and tell her that the anime was much different and better than that. So if I had to rate this movie on a scale of 1 to 10 I'd have to give it a 7 just because it made me laugh so much.

[darkgamerGS]

I aw the movie and got every card from someone. The card I got by watching the movie was Sorceror of Dark Magic.
