The Movies


i heard the first two movies are coming out and im very excited does anyone know anything about these movies?

reply

In its native Japan (where the show has been airing since 1996), there have been a remarkable EIGHT movies released to date (the most recent hitting theaters just this sumemr).

I haven't heard about if/when the movies will be released in America. But Cartoon Network and FUNimation would be missing a golden opportunity if they didn't make them available for the growing Conan fandom here in the English-speaking world.

reply

go to www.caseclosed.com and thy say that the first two movies are in translation but doesn't say when they'll be released.

reply

The first movie is called "The Skyscraper Explosion", released in 1997.
The second movie is called "The 14th Target", released in 1998.
I will give you the summaries of all the 8 movies when I have finished typing them down.

One more thing, I'm concerned about how America will name the Conan Movies, I hope they will name them with their original callings and not like how they called the Anime Movies released before Conan, like "Case Closed: The Movie", "Case Closed: The 2nd Movie", those titles are SO uncreative.

reply

reply

Lucky...

Case Closed is my favorite show, next to Lupin.

reply

How have you seen all 8?

reply

Yup~I've seen them all! But not in America, duh

reply

Grrr . . . wonder when they are coming out in America? (That way, I can change the language to Japanese to hear it in its original language. Ironic isn't it?)

reply

Not really....Cuz their original language sounds WAY better

reply

No, it is. I have to wait untill they translate it into english, so I can hear it in japanese.

reply

Just do whatever u want, it doesn't matter if it's in japanese or english, cuz it's a GREAT CARTOON and u're going to enjoy it no matter what

reply

NO! IT IS NOT A CARTOON! IT IS ANIME! AND YES, THERE IS A DIFFERENCE! (I get very emotional when someone refers to anime as a cartoon)

reply

Fine, it's a great show!

reply

Victory!

reply


"Case closed"??????
The show is called "CASE CLOSED" in the U.S.???
WHY??????
Why didn't "Detective Conan", like it should be??

reply

uuuuuuuuu hh ithink it was of copyrigth beacuse it belong to fox but it was to violent[p; or at least thats what i know

reply

They had issues with copyrights and such, they couldnt call it 'conan' because of 'conan the barbarian', 'late night with...' and all that jazz. They did it to avoid a lawsuit, BUT they did get expressed permission from the creators to change the title.

reply

Oh, ok, guys, thanks, I got it...
It's too sad, though... it seems you have too many 'Conans' in the U.S.... :S :P

cartoon-definition from answers.com (if you search for cartoon, in the def it says animated cartoon, search that for this article)
A motion picture or television film consisting of a photographed series of drawings, objects, or computer graphics that simulates motion by recording very slight, continuous changes in the images, frame by frame

Even if it is anime, it is still technically a cartoon. just wanted you to know.

reply

Anime:
A style of animation developed in Japan, characterized by stylized colorful art, futuristic settings, violence, and sex.


So, yes, you can call it a cartoon, but it would be like calling every fish in the world "fish". It would be correct, however, calling it "goldfish" would be more correct.

(What I meant before, was that I hated calling it a cartoon, for this implies the sterotypical implication that it is designed and made for kids. This is obviously not true, as I doubt kids would watch "colorful art, futuristic settings, violence, and sex.")


"So . . . just what is a ninja doing 'playing ninja', hmm?"

reply

i've seen all 8 too =P
i would say all of them are so remarkable except the 7th one

Little surprise: story of the 9th Conan-movie, if anyone's interested;)

15 years ago, the Hokkaido University western sea.
Freighter the first Yatsushiro circle, to collide to the enormous iceberg, sinking.
Captain and alone clue in sacrifice.

The time it flows, today, *beep* city.
One of large financial group Yatsushiro groups, design loyal retainer of Yatsushiro shipbuilding,
The car to cause the heart seizure in stream, fatality.

Furthermore after half month......
The Pacific Ocean the luxury liner Aphrodite number which navigates.
ƒRƒiƒ“, orchid, as for small five ˜Y one line,
It participated in the maiden voyage.
But the doubtful person secretly maneuvers on the inboard,
Murder case occurs finally.
As for that, you call the sea
It escapes everywhere and it is unfolded in the space which does not have the place,
It was start of fearful conspiracy.

The translation (or actually trashlation) is from Babelfish;)
