One Piece The Movie - The Desert Princess and the Pirates

[Battle Franky]

From WSJ #48:



From what I gather, it'll be a total rework of the Alabasta arc in film form. It's set to come out in the Spring of 2007.

[Toko]

Huh.. interesting idea. It really looks like... rewritten Alabasta.

[goty]

An Alabasta remake!? I'm all for it, much better than a crappy new storyline with mechas, cursed sword or bouncing boobies. Can't wait, watch my favorite arc in movie quality glory will be sweet.

[Brad Redfield]

This could be really, really awesome....or really, really bad. I'll wait for some more info before giving my opinion on it.

[igalsfy]

well, if they manage to make it as awesome as the red ribbon movie in DB, it's gonna be kickass. let's wait for it now...

[Battle Franky]

Ok, added better scans.

[Anime Master]

HELL YES! Just like the DB movies. Path to Power is my favorite DB movie. I hope its as good as that.

[Wickio]

I'm all for it! I'd rather have an amazing story with awesome animation than one with a weak plot, even though it's a recap in the end.

As long as they aren't planning to do it for all major arcs in movie form, I have no problem with this. =D

[sabret00the]

Oh, great more Vivi :o(

[Sano]

I think this will be a intersing movie, and it's something different in my opinion.

[Setzer]

I'm looking forward to this.

Hopefully, it won't suck.

[Rogultgot]

Interesting... Some more Mr. 2 in the frame...

[shadowrep]

lets hope it will be ok

[CosmicDebris]

Ah, I knew the new movie info would be out soon.

Huh, that's different...on one hand I don't really care for a rehashes, but if it's really done well with great animation and stuff, it could be cool...but could they possiblly outdo the original defeat of Croc?

[Mog]

Ha. Well, cheap move, Toei. On the other hand, I really don't mind them rehashing ideas if they're done well. Seeing stuff in better animation should be a blast, and that's all I care for.

I'm curious to say the least, but it's still early days so there's plenty of stuff that could be coming up or changing.

[Dahna]

It's good that it's something different but please... PLEASE! for the love of Enel no jiggling breasts! The last one had enough of that...

[Wickio]

I still think people exaggerate the jiggling in movie 7. Sure, the boobs were huge, but there wasn't really that much jiggling going on through the entire movie.

Then again, if that were to happen while Nami was in her Alabasta outfit, who knows where it would lead?

[Dahna]

Maybe it wasn't that much but the very existence of something that normally only appears in soft hentai movies to be in a One Piece movie... to put it blantly... it just pissed me off -.-

hopefully they will do a good job on this movie without fanservice and the like

[Myoti]

What the others said: if it's a remake with better animation, I'd say it could be pretty good (though how will they manage to squeeze all of that in like that?).

I'm being reminded of that "Alabasta Movie Trailer" AMV someone made awhile back.

...but could they possiblly outdo the original defeat of Croc?

Rewatching the old clips, I'd say yes. If they leave in the whole "Allegro con Fucco"(?) bit, but bring up the animation, it could be pretty awesome.

[Sofia Alexandra]

I wonder if they'll keep the fillers in this?
