One Piece The Movie: Episode of Chopper
-
-
Wait WHAAAAT?!
Now if this is true, THIS is an arc that would be done right with good animation. But I thought
! Franky was confirmed to be in the next movie? Changed story?
-
the Arc movies are going Backwards.. O.o
-
.o Eh … I don't see anything in there that says anything about a movie.
And though it's been a while since I watched that arc, it just looks like screenshots from the anime.
-
If Masako Nozawa is in it, I'm down.
Oh, and if it actually is a remake of Drum Arc…I retract my statement. Nothing could make that good.
-
As awesome as the Drum Arc would be as a movie (since its short and sweet to begin with), I really hope they don't do a movie version of it. I really wanna see a movie with Franky and…
! …maybe even Brook.
-
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat~!?
I'm really hoping this isn't a movie, as I've been hoping for Franky in the next one.
You would have thought they'd learn from the Alabasta movie.
-
Remember I dun read Japanese. This is an assumption.
-
Hm, when they first said they were doing an Alabasta movie, did they show footage from the anime?
Just wondering, maybe it's some kind of….thing..yeah.
-
But it does say 2008 at the top. So it has to be something.
-
Hence my assumption.
(and my friend who reads japanese told me "movie")
-
I doubt it. Toe wouldn't be releasing any information on the next movie this soon.
-
In any case, if it is a movie, I hope they change the story. Having Wapol as the villain for a movie doesnt give a good ring, even if Wapol is pwnsome. And the arc really is a wierd choice for a movie, I mean Arlong is a waaaay better choice. Everyone has a fight. Can be condensed or even changed without much drama loss. Very great story with a great villain.
But Drum? Although seeing Hiluluk's flashback in movie quality seems full of win.
-
Um….wow.....
Yeah....that's what it says.....
It also says it's "Something new for fans that watched on TV"
and it also says, "The story of Chopper's joining will be retold in a 'new' story and high quality animation."
sigh
Just shoot me. Unoriginal cunts.
The possibility exists that this could be the movie that 8 wasn't of course....
And according to the teaser at the end of 8, Franky WILL be in it.
-
Franky in a Drum Arc movie? That's worth the price of admission alone although I'm not sure about how Wapol will work as a villian. A tad too goofy but who knows?
-
Oh god, not again.
Judging from Movie 8's epic suckage, I was hoping Toei had learned their lesson. Sigh… And if Franky is really going to be in it, that's a pretty massive plothole.
On the other hand though, Drum is at least a much shorter arc than Arabasta, and there's less material to cram in, so I can see it at least being watchable. I still would prefer something like Movie 6 though, I never was a big fan of remakes.
-
We can always pray it's part of a flashback scene.
-
half of me is going FUCKING SWEET Hiluluk movie form
other half is thinking of Movie 9
if they fuck him up I swear oooo bad news
-
Well, this should be interesting….but re-writing Franky into it? Wouldn't that mean Robin would be too? But Chopper wouldn't be in the crew yet......yeah, I don't think they are gonna try and do a time paradox movie.
-
Um….wow.....
Yeah....that's what it says.....
It also says it's "Something new for fans that watched on TV"
and it also says, "The story of Chopper's joining will be retold in a 'new' story and high quality animation."

What the fuck? I don't believe this. At least Alabasta was…Alabasta. The (arguably) most popular arc of One Piece. This is Drum arc.
I'd laugh if the beginning of the movie goes like this...
-Post Enies Lobby, the crew is on the ship-
Franky: How did Chopper become a part of the crew?
Luffy: It went something like this...
-movie starts-
I mean, seriously, how could Franky be in this movie?
-
So I came by some worthy news. You are all welcome.
-
Yeah, a flashback sequence hadn't crossed my mind before, but that's the only logical way to include Franky.
I'm hoping they can pull off a good remake now, seeing as they have less material to cover. Drum is one of my favorite arcs, so I'll pray that they don't ruin it.
-
For 2009, some of me wants to see Arlong… some of me wants to see Toei not do remakes... most of me wants Toei to get movie 6 dude back.
-
[
Maybe Franky is Movie 10…or by the way things go.. it will be Movie 12-15 before he shows Up XD! What's next Brooke in Skypia or Enies Lobby? XD
-
@EvilGamerX:

See, Arlong is more suitable for a remake. Shorter than Alabasta, but still has a great impact on the story. If they do it properly (DB Movie 4), it could turn out great.
Or they could just fuck it up again (OP Movie 8).
-
Imagine an Arlong remake with Brook and Franky in it. That would be weird but so very cool. I'd get the movie raw from Japan just to see it.

But is Luffy!! Luffy telling a story?! The twist would be..
Luffy adding Sogeking, Aliens, an even more fearsome Bizarre version of Wapol, Giant warriors of Meat, and of course, Chopper actually shooting beams in Brain Point…
Hah. thinking twice, it would be funny if it was a movie based on Luffy's point of view. XD
And the end...
Franky staring at Luffy with an "Enel Face" before the credits roll....
-

luffy and crew go back in time to stop chopper from killing hitler
-
I wish they'd do original movies again.
oh well, at least drum was only like 10 episodes, so it should be easier to condense.
Only good news is that we won't get retarded moves like GOMU GOMU NO ROTATING AXE!!!
I mean seriously, after that shit, I can understand why they'd stop trying.

I'd watch it.
-
Maybe Movie 9 is a Time travel movie where the crew plus Franky travel back in time when they first met Chopper but it would be weird if Luffy met past Luffy
-
Dear Lord….FACEPALM
You would have thought they'd learn from the Alabasta movie.
Yeha, they learned they can basically be lazy, rehash old storylines and do a crappy job on both animation and story, and as ong as it has the One Piece name on it, it'll bring in a decent amount of dough at the box office.
I'd watch it.
DITTO.
If Franky is gonna be in it, it's defintely gonna be a scenerio like someone mentioned with the entire movie set inside a flashback. That or the first portion of the movie is a retelling and the rest is like the return of the Drum arc characters, like they have to go back to help Dalton with something or Wapol and the Blik Pirates have chased down Luffy for a rematch…
-
@Geg:
I'd watch it.
Seconded.
Of course like Movie 8, the big upside will be we'll get to see Funi's dub of it long before they get a chance to dub the TV episodes. Also, as has been already said at least Drum is only like 10 episodes so there shouldn't be any of that crazy pacing crap.
But still yeah, maybe they had a movie with Franky in mind and just thought, "NAH Flashbacks are more profitable and easier to write!"
What I personally want to see is an Oyabun Luffy movie and/or something with Movie 6's style.
-
I thought someone said there was a teaser at the end of the 8th movie which had all of their bounties on it… This makes no sensce maybe they just changed their minds? What about Robin's VA though? What is she suppose to do since Robin isn't in Drum Island atleast I don't think she is....
@EvilGamerX - Where did you get this Jump from?
-
The bright side of these remakes is that it'll show the dub watchers what REALLY happened in these arcs before 4kids butchered them. It's pretty smart of FUNi to release them first.
-
I think that'd be great if this is a movie for the Drum arc. 0f course when everyone else sees it they're just going to complain like they did movie 8. (which I liked)
-
Nah. I was thinking more about…
A flashback that breaks the fourth Wall, in this case the one hearing the story would be Franky, so it would be funny if Luffy and Franky actually appeared in the scenes of the movie, arguing about how stupid the whole thing is or something like that, something that's worth to compete with a Beam Launcher Reindeer or the march of Thousands of Hiking Bears....
-
At least now there's no debating whether or not films should have any place in canon ^o^
-
Well, there's two positives here:
1. Drum is shorter, so the odds of the rush job that Alabasta was is lowered.
2. We have a chance to get another of the epic One Piece scenes, Hiruluk's speech, animated with better animation…not that there was much movement in that scene. That and, will "Ava Maria" be there?
Well, it's a one piece movie. I never imagined Wapol as a big move villian, but then again look at the villians from movie 1, 2, 3, and 7--Wapols not that far off. Hey, what are the odds that they'll fit fanservce into movie? All they got is Vivi in a parka and Nami, sweaty and breathing hard in PJs.
-
time travel franky
-
Please.
It's Franky.
He can build a time machine if he wants.
-
I think they're doing this for the same reason they did movie 3. Chopper is insanely popular in Japan,but oda-sensei doesn't exactly give him a ton of screentime. Making Chopper-centered movies is the best way to give the fans a different sorta fanservice and let him be on center stage…
-
All I can say is that Vivi better !@#$ing be in it.
-
Nope, she's going to be replaced by Franky. Two characters with blue hair; no one will be able to tell the difference.
-
i wonder if franky will wear any pants
-
If they want to make another Chopper centric movie why don't they just make a big screen version of Chopperman?
-

That could actually come out pretty damn cool.
-
Sogeking and his sidekick, Chopperman, fighting the evil forces of the Flashily well made Sindycate of Evil, ruled by none other than our favorite Anime Clown…
Oh, and because it would be a movie, it would end with a "Robotto Bazooka" that would completely crush Buggy like other versions have done to other Villains in almost every One Piece movie....
-
I gave it a super-brief read. It says something about new animation for this arc. Maybe it's a movie, maybe it's not.
-
If Vivi isn't in it… this movie just might suck...
No wait... I...
Alright people, this movie will probably suck. But It does have potential. I'd feel better it I was directing it though... >.> I don't trust Toei anymore. I just don't know what to say, except that they better not screw with the characters in the crew.
WORST CASE
Franky and Robin are in the Crew. No Vivi, No Carue.
BEST CASE
They use this movie to show off BLACKBEARD destroying Drum Drum Island. Also Vivi is in the crew, with no Franky or Robin. Also, Nami doesn't steal the key to Whaphol's ammunition room, and Luffy fights SUPER WHAPHOL!!!
Super Whaphol = Mario+Mushroom+King Koopa
