I wander if we have acquired the licence to the One Piece franchise.
That means nothing, it's a festival screeneing. We won't necesarily even get that movie.
There's a fair number of examples where we have a film/OVA and not the series it's based off. e.g. Gundam, Macross, Utena.
 
I'll be heading to Edimburgh for this one, so anyone coming who care to say hi.... As a matter of fact, it would be cool to meet stu, arby and maxon

I can confirm nobody has the One Piece franchise in the UK still as I put the lineup together and secured the films! I like One Piece though so wanted to see it brought to the big screen here - so enjoy folks :)!

Andrew, would it be impossible to go after individual films in a bigger franchise like One Piece? I know FUNi only released one or two, but I'm sure a sub-only release would suffice - and perhaps give an idea of the size of the One Piece fanbase over here. I have no idea how strict Toei are with their properties.

/hates how Scotland gets everything and London gets nothing. :p

I've already seen Strong world but would be good to see it on the big screen and meet some other One Piece fans since its hard to find them xO

According to there twitter, tickets for the Filmhouse in Edinburgh goes on sale by friday at the latest.

Glasgow should also go live by Tuesday along with some other announcements - watch this space :)!

Andrew,
SLA when not doing Beez stuff :).
 
Haruhi on the Sunday, crap. :-/

If that and Eva had been on the Friday, I would have been able to come up. Not as fussed about Strong World, though.

Enjoy the films you jammy *****! :p
 
Strong world <3 already ordered the blu ray but be nice to see it in a big screen. and see some other OP people

OP, Eva and Trigun. Trying to order but keeps erroring
 
Urgh... Edingburgh is the same distance from me as London central... lol Like being smack-bang in the middle of Anime Void territory.

There's a fair few I'd like to see to. But is it worth paying train fairs just to watch big-screen movies? :(
