Time to bring back this thread, only because Gunota posted a link to an ITmedia article on Movie III.

Spoilers:

The movie will be 99 minutes long so much of what happens in episode 33 to the end will probably be gone.

Looks like we will not be seeing Earth again after Movie II. It sounds like it will start with the Axis episodes, followed by their alliance with the Titans. Reccoa will defect to the Titans, then on to Gryps 2. So episode 33-34, then we jump to episode 43-50 without Rosamia arc or a few other things (i.e it gets spotty) in there. It does appear that a majority of Movie III will be new animation, only because they cut out (by my guess) a 12-14 episode chunk out of the remaining block.  Episode 49 and 50 will probably the least edited since it was the finale.

Awesome, though all 3 filsm should have been 100% new a nimation and at least 2 hours each, I'll take the extra 9 minutes and be happy. Is there a downloadable trailer for III yet?

Posted

Agreed, I feel like cause gundam shows are so long only 2-2 1/2 hours will work in good favor, along with it being such an old series just going and reanimating it.

Same sentiment here: this Movie 1 was great but something was missing in IMO, not in terms of 'faithfull to Zeta' or not because it respects well the overall plot, but I really felt the last 20 mins or half hour were a bit rushed

Still, a very good movie that I strongly recommend to everyone and definitively a must-see for all mechafreaks :)

The first movie was awesome. Anyone know what the release date for movie two is? And also, is the series only avaliable with subtitles, or dubbed like the movies?

Ahh,

could u guys help me out a bit.

I recently downloaded the first movie, but I'm having trouble burning it to a CD. (I downloaded it from the office, DONT ASK WHY.)

I notice that the avi file is quite huge, any idea on how to solve this problem. DVD Burning is out of the question since i dont have a DVD burner here at the office.

THANKS!!!!

Isn't it only 700mb? Buy a 750MB CD-R.

If you downloaded the Fansub version then you should have no problem burning it to a normal CDR. The current normal spec on a CDR is 700mb, which will still work if you want to burn a the fansub 702mb file.

If you gotten another fansub that's more than that ammount,, you can always RAR it. You just compress the file into like 10 RAR files. Once you get it home , just put them back together.

Posted

Or you can always try a 1GB (or 2x512MB) memory stick.... I think I saw some on sale in the Sunday ads.

But otherwise, just use winrar or winzip and compress and/or break-up the file.

i just finished watching the Zeta Movie 2, it was good, i did not like it as much as the first movie, maybe when i see the subbed version i will think better of it. the picture quality is not as high as the First Movie that i downloaded, also there is some annoying writing on the screen for the entire thing, in the top corner it says "Sample" and in the bottom it says " a date with some Japanese writing" all in all, it is a good find i cannot wait to see the subbed version

It's a screener sample. Worst than a VHS rip. But i don't think it suppose to be a high quality raw. I think the writing is actually Chinese, not Japanese. The font style looks more like Chinese. If you want a HQ raw, go buy the DVD.

I did glance at it last night. It jumps from location to location. It's quite annoying for the story to keep moving like that. They jump from being in the air, to Victoria, to Hong Kong, then to another air battle, then to space, then to the moon, then back into space, then ends... That's a bit too much jumping.

Posted

agreed, i thought the first film seemed better all around, as for the quality, the first movie that was subbed and online for downloading was far better and very high quality visually, i hope when they sub this one maybe they will have the same thing. i would love to buy the original dvd but i cannot understand japanese and it ruins the story for me, I have already seen the Zeta USA DVD set so i have a basic idea of what is taking place but a hour plus of dialoge and no understanding of it is kind of a turn off.

I won't be too worried about quality.

There's a lot more new animation, but it really doesn't help the story since there's too much jumping from location to location. I think a bit too much happens in this movie.

Posted

Thanks for eevrone, sugesstions.

Anyways just saw movie 1 last nyt and i was totally blown away. The Opening song was really cool.

The MS designs and animation in general was absolutely gorgeous!!!!!

can't wait for subbed version of movie 2......... :-)

Posted

I seem to remember that they were going to show Zeta Movie 2 on their Bandai channel later this month. So you should expect higher quality from that one. The rip of the first movie from that channel was pretty damd good, almost DVD rip like.

As for this 2nd movie,, I agreed it does jump all over the place, one minute their here and the next they're in space,, it even worse if you already saw the series because you know that they skipped a whole lot.

After watching the movie, I went ahead and watched the orginal series, and i was wondering:

Is it just me or is the sound effects for the MK II's vulcans upon firing different from the original series? Sounds more realistic, maybe?

From Gunota:

(Spoilers, highlight to read, PARTIAL ARTICLE ONLY)

Zeta III opened at theatres across Japan and here's a review of the movie.

Beware of spoilers!

Story - The movie is based on Ep 33, the last part of Ep 34, Ep 43, Ep 44, Ep 45, Ep 46, Ep 47, Ep 49, and Ep 50. Kilimanjaro, Dakar, and all events related to Rosamia (except the end) were elimated from the movie. It did not stray from the overall TV plot and pretty much retconned Gundam ZZ.

The movie picks off where Zeta II concluded with Axis escorting the Argama to the Gwadan. The Argama sends their delegates (Won Lee, Char, Bright, Apolly, Reccoa, and Kamille) to negotiate with Axis, but talks break down as Char becomes furious at Haman. Char and the rest of the Argama members escape and Scirocco's Dogos Gear appears and attacks. The Radish's troops arrive to repel Yazan, but only after Yazan destroys the Methuss and takes Reccoa with him. Afterwards, Scirocco and his followers board the Gwadan to make a pact with Haman. (Ep 33, 34)

Fearing the Gryps 2 colony laser and the Gate of Zedan (formerly known as A Baoa Qu), AEUG and Haman meet once again this time on the Argama. With a letter from Anaheim Electronics' Melanie Hue Carbine, AEUG approves the return of Zabi rule to Side 3 and, in return, Axis has to destroy Gryps 2 and the Gate of Zedan. Haman only agrees to the destruction of the Gate of Zedan. (new scenes like Henken being irritated and talking back to Haman were added while Abu Dabia, one of the characters that never made it into the TV series, was visible in the background as well). (Ep 43)

Haman meets with Jamitov. Talks break off and Haman tells Jamitov that Axis will ram into the Gate of Zedan. AEUG joins to attack the Titans. Apolly is killed, which starts the Kill 'Em All fest.

With the Titans losing the Gate of Zedan, Jamitov meets with Haman onboard Gwadan along with Scirocco. The movie stays 100% true to Ep 46 as Char fails to kill anyone, Scirocco offs Jamitov and duels with Haman. Katz's G-Defensor shoots at The O only to see Sara sacrifice herself to save Scirocco. Yazan's Hambrabi squadron, who already pledged their allegiance to Scirocco and still part of the crew of the Dogos Gear, finishes off Bask and the Dogos Gear.

AEUG commences Operation Maelstrom to take control of the colony laser. Like in the series, Haman and Kamille have their semi-Newtype bond with Kamille only partially damaging her Qubeley. AEUG takes control of the laser. While AEUG readies it, Char grabs the Mega Bazooka Launcher and fires at squadrons of Gaza C's. A three-way battle between Char, Haman, and Scirocco starts while Katz and Emma goes off to help the Radish. Katz crashes into an asteroid and dies like the TV series, Emma's Mk-II is trapped by Yazan. The Radish comes in to help only to be finished off by Yazan. Kamille takes out Jerid's Bound Doc, which blows up along with the Radish. After doing emergency repairs on Mk-II, Emma and Reccoa duel with Reccoa dying (unlike the TV series, Emma understands why Reccoa betrayed them). Emma receives fatal injuries from the Palace Athene debris. The fight between Char, Haman, and Scirocco continues inside the laser and in the theatre. Kamille joins in at the theatre as in the series.......

So, when DO we get English subtitles? I can't wait to see this one..... I went and got the whole series after watching the first movie, and I love it, even though I'm still only like half way thru the series.

Posted

I was hoping for a little...more added to the ending of III, especially since now ZZ doesn't fit, and there's still the matter of how the Federation gets a hold of Axis, Haman, etc before CCA would take place.
