Yet another new trailer up on IGN.
Funimation DVD Discussion IV (Please Check First Post for FAQ)

Yay, a theater popped up that's literally 10 mins away from me. Gonna refund my other order (which wasn't far away either, really, just 32 mins) and go to this one! I'm so stoked! I'm so so so so so so glad more theaters are popping up. I just hope this does well for them so we can get other potential movies to get theater releases, among other things. Please don't bomb like the Alabasta movie did… I have hope for you, Film Gold.

Funimation now has a Theater Locator on the films official site:
-
Now that the full list is out, any updated theater counts?
-

Might not be the full-list yet.
Anyway, here's the new 30 sec trailer. Could be a tv-spot.
-
Seems like a good commercial to show during Toonami breaks.
Now that the full list is out, any updated theater counts?
There's no full list yet. Theaters are still being updated.
-
I'd wager it'll get to probably at least 200 theaters or somewhere in the mid 200s. Just checked the comments on FUNi's YouTube video of the commercial and everyone is excited and has bought/is buying their tickets. I only saw a few dub haters
-
@Elektrik:
I'm going to see Film Gold with 3 of my friends, two of whom are caught up to the manga, but one is reading and only at Skypiea. I figure I'm going to tell him nothing and so things like Haki and characters he hasn't met yet will hopefully go over his head unnoticed. Then when he gets to those parts in the manga he'll understand. Better than telling him and spoiling it. He'll probably be most confused by Luffy's Gear moves and Sanji's fire kicks
Does he know about ace because if sabo shows up with fire in it, once he gets to TB he'll learn that since they share the same fruit ace will die
Of course thats a Well known Plot Spoiler, how much else do they know about, the crew etc.
-
Keep in mind that the dub haters aren't representative. The base logic of commenting is that you usually only comment when you have something to say. Most people who like the dub don't feel the urge to post that they like the dub. Dub haters, on the other hand, are typically vocal and definitely tend to share their opinions more.

Hate to be a downer, but does this movie look boring to anyone else? All I'm getting out of these trailers is that they go to Las Vegas and fight somebody.
-
CUT FROM THE SAME CLOTHES AS STRONG WORLD AND FILM Z.
Those movies were awsome.
-
The Funimation Facebook says there will be an exclusive dubbed GOLD clip on Adult Swim tomorrow.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
I actually liked Strong World more than Film Z. And probably Baron O most of all. Though something about Strong World feels to be the most "One Piece" of all the films.

He doesn't know anything, other than that Franky and Brook join the crew. I think it might go over his head though, I'm just going to tell him none of it is canon so not to over think it haha and hopefully he will forget by the time he gets to TB
-
Can someone record the Film Gold preview tonight on Toonami? I'm not going to be near my TV tonight and it would mean a lot
-
If it's the same situation as Resurrection F, someone will record it and upload it to YouTube.
-
It was a two minute clip of the crew getting a tour of the island. Nothing great; movie still looks boring to me personally.
-
Oh wow, nice, it's showing at three different theaters in Albuquerque. That's a plus!

It's funny that you say that, because Strong World's story was created by Oda himself. Which is the exact reason why I love Strong World more than Film Z. Although Film Z is on my list of Top 6 favorite One Piece movies.

I'm not so much biased by who created it; it's just a great film. I go back and forth between whether I like that or Baron more. Baron is great for the opposite reason; one piece through a new pair of eyes with amazing animation.

So they are doing English versions of the songs, nice
-
I think that song was always in English.

Can anyone confirm for sure? Because I really want to hear Gold and Jive in English and it would be a shame after they did an English version of the Marine song in Film Z
-

Yeah. I remember the song being in English already from the camrip I saw.
I'm sure Gold and Jive will be dubbed, tho, because Tesoro and Carina sing it. If characters in-universe sing something, they usually dub it.
It's only when it's a random insert song where they'll leave it untranslated.
-
Yeah, that was always in English.
-
True, that bodes well
-
Just got Season 8, Voyage 5. I just can't believe we made it to this part of the series.
-
Doflamingo continues to be a highlight in the dub with his speech. I'm also continuing liking the voice for Brownbeard for the dub.
-
@Zach:
Happy to announce that the podcast's very-own Steve Yurko is playing Dr. Fishbonen in One Piece Season 8, Voyage 5 (out today)!
Congrats to Steve! His big named-character debut in the role he was born to play…besides Dellinger, of course. ^^
In other good news, the first two DUBBED episodes of post timeskip are up on Funimation for subscribers.

The first two episodes of the unannounced season are live? What?

I asked FUNimation, and they replied with:
"We apologize for the confusion. The dubs for Episodes 517 and 518 are not yet available. Our digital team is aware the option to watch them is mistakenly appearing and is working to correct this." -
Well, if by any chance somebody can watch them, let us know. At least the "not yet available" part will make people who think the dub is stopping not worry anymore
-
Hopefully this means we'll see a solicitation for the new season next month. I'm also hoping for Heart of Gold. No idea why they're hanging on to that. You'd think theyd want to get it out before the movie.
-
Wait, were the episodes actually available by mistake or was the mistake just that it SAID they were available but they really weren't?
IE, even if it was a mistake, was anyone able to actually see the dubbed episodes?

I believe it just SAYS (they're still up for me) that they're up.

I was hoping it wasn't a mistake and that we would get two new dub episodes every week or something like that. Oh well.
-
For those who didn't see the Film Gold clip on Toonami or on their FB page, FUNi uploaded the clip directly on their YouTube account.

Doflamingo continues to be a highlight in the dub with his speech. I'm also continuing liking the voice for Brownbeard for the dub.
Yes indeed. He even more or less nailed the iconic laugh I think. Well it still needs a little work but he's on the right track. And he definitely has Doffy's attitude down.
Other quick mentions, shout out to Cole Owen Brown on his last and final performance as Blackbeard. Still pretty shocked to hear of his passing and the role won't be the same without him.
Just wanted to also point out that out of the dubbed supernovas Hawkins and Capone continue to impress me the most. Outside of Law of course who was a given.
@Zach:

WOW. I honestly haven't followed the podcast in a long time due to my schedule and other time issues but that's incredible. I assume that means Steve has gotten involved with voice acting then and this isn't just a one time deal? Hmm, makes me think I should at least check in with the podcast here and there…
Gotta say that he did a pretty good job as Fishbone guy. I'm surprised I didn't recognize his voice but that means he's already doing a good job.
Anyway, despite a few nitpicks I've had during Marineford, the flashback material was excellent in the dub and all the post material has been spot-on. I'm definitely hoping season nine starts sooner rather than later but I admit my wallet needs a breather. Also kind of hoping to get some information on some of the pre-timeskip movies and 3D2Y soon.
-
I really like the One Piece bloopers that they had on Season 8 Voyage 5. It so remind me of the days of the bloopers on the Kenshin dvds.
-
Welp bad news people, no new One Piece going to happen in March :(

Makes sense, March is probably reserved for Film Gold and possibly Heart of Gold on home video which they of course can't announce yet. April seems likely for the next set
-
damnit! i knew should've watched those timeskip episodes before they pulled them down. and now it looks like we may have to wait awhile as well.
-
Again, I don't really mind the break that much. Since it's not going be really like what happened with the delay with Season 3 and 4.
-

They never actually had timeskip episodes up though. The mistake was marking episodes as dubbed, not necessarily that they literally put up entire dubbed episodes by mistake.
-

Yeah, I know. And we've heard their performances as their time skip selves already and know that their is no change anyway. Still would've been nice to get a taste, it's not like they haven't given us 2 episodes ahead at a time before.
@Maron:They never actually had timeskip episodes up though. The mistake was marking episodes as dubbed, not necessarily that they literally put up entire dubbed episodes by mistake.
Ah. I see. Oh well. Thanks[emoji28]
-
Ah, would this be Cole Brown's last contribution?
-
FUNi is really going all out in the advertising of this movie. Hope it doesn't fall flat for them.
Anyway, new trailer/promotion for the film and Otakon Vegas contest they got going on for the release.
I love that they made it like an actual commercial for the Gran Tesoro. Lmao
-
Every trailer so far has been a commercial for Gran Tesoro. This movie looks boring. …bought my ticket already.

It has been said that this movie feels more like OP's more filler-feeling movies back in the day, as opposed to how Strong World and Z were.
Probably because the bad-guy isn't some legendary figure within the OP world. So the lore to make it feel canon isn't there.
I wouldn't expect much from that aspect, but it looks fun to me.
-
Ah, would this be Cole Brown's last contribution?
Yes. He gave a stupendous last performance. It was great to hear his voice interact with his crew before it was too late. His replacement has pretty big shoes to fill, and I'm scared that his voice might be made more generic instead of how raspy and alacritous Cole's performance was.
I've always loved Auger's voice though. His refined manner of speaking and dichotomy with Usopp's personality is made even more remarkable in the English dub. But the way he said Akainu in that video made me crack up.
