Amazon Prime Video release

[FryMeTuhDehMuhn]

Come to think of it, does the UK ever get dubs in a “British accent”?

Only dub I've ever seen from the UK was Arrietty, from Studiocanal. Literally no idea why it exists considering there is another English dub so what's the point in two, but I am glad it does exist. Olivia Colman and Saoirse Ronan are in it!

The last thing I'll say is that Gkids for sure knows it's audience. It knows that many people didn't like the Netflix dub and wouldn't be interested in a home video release with it, even if it's a collectors edition sort of deal. They also know the ADV dubbed has aged and does have a fair bit of problems itself.

Having a chance to redub with the new Rebuild casts which has all the ADV voices people begged for back, and then some, WITH an updated version of the 2019 script that's tighter and more natural would be a great selling point for the bluray release. It will also show that Khara is willing to humble themselves and admit when they were wrong, like we got to see with the new Rebuild dub now anyways, which makes me even more willing to support them in the future.

It's just pure win win to me but I guess we'll see what happens.

As I've been avoiding spoilers for the movie, I'm BEYOND overjoyed that they got the original ADV cast back together to finish the Rebuild movies!!! If they had actually replaced Spike Spencer and friends for the last movie I would have flipped a lid and been really pissed off. ALSO, one of my local theaters is showing the movie this Caturday at 7:00!!!!! It's being shown with Kimetsu no Yaiba Mugen Train before it but as I already saw that I'll be skipping it xD

Wow, lucky you!
I wish I could see it the first time in a theater, like I did for 2.0, but alas, COVID. I just hope it'll pop up someday. I'll be seeing the Shirobako movie in theaters on the 10th though so that's something nice in its own right.

Uh.... no one has the contract to theatrically screen 3.0+1.0 anywhere in the world outside Japan so if any theater is showing the film that's likely illegal or very suspect. (A theater screening a film they don't have rights to can get them shut down or fined for so much money they may as well shut down)

Some theatres let you rent out the place and play whatever you want. There’s one by me that you just give them the dvd or blu ray, and they’ll play it. I know someone on Reddit was talking about doing this and basically inviting anyone who wants to go to join.

If I remember correctly, on my release both those English dubs were included. I'd certainly never experienced that on a contemporaneous release, before or since.

Hoo boy, I will need to buy a lot of alcohol this friday for my new dub re-watch of 1-3 and Shin (which i've decided to watch in dub for my first watch!)

Yes, I've done this before. I just really wanted to see The Castle of Cagliostro with the manga dub on the big screen.

I called them about renting it for TUAT but the owners are currently out of town. I also tried asking the theatre I used to work at and the theatre my uncle manages and they both said they don't have bluray players so they can't do it.

My final attempt was asking the local theatre that showed the other rebuilds here because I KNOW they have a bluray player but they said they would have to go through Amazon first and there's little chance for clearance.

Just going to have to watch it at home the first time but that will make my first eventual watch in theatres that much more special.

[xenosaga]

Can't believe it's this week. Feels surreal.

[N1CK0]

A question: do we know exactly when it will be released? I was planning to watch it as soon as it is available with a friend but there is no reason to invite him the day before if by midnight it won't be viewable.

[BernardoCairo]

The movie will be released at 12:00 GMT. You have to do some math to know what time it will be made available in your region (time zone antics).

Whoa, so does that mean Thrice will be released at 8:00 PM EST, Thursday night? That can't be right!

[pwhodges]

I believe so - I'm lead to understand that the worldwide release is coordinated to 12:00am (i.e. midnight, 00:00 hrs) GMT (= UTC). That means late on the day before in the US (Thursday in this case).

Confirmation of the time from Amazon, not specifying time zone, though:

However, it's worth noting that the definition of 12:00am (or pm) is not standardised. 12am being midnight at the start of the day is always my assumption, but there are people who use it to mean noon (which I call 12pm). It's possible that 12:00am is meant to mean noon GMT, which would mean that everywhere in the world would see a release on the same date at different times, and I've seen that interpretation used in a discussion of the release of another film on Amazon.

[mastafishere]

This changes my plans considerably! Considering that the main cast for the English dub is staying the same, I'm going to rewatch the first three blu rays throughout the week in preparation for Thursday night. Then, I'm still going to do my originally planned marathon for Friday with the "new" dubs for the first three releases.

This is so exciting! I should probably verify with Amazon before I make these plans (since they also involve my wife and my sister)

I just tweeted that same Amazon account, asking for verification. Here's hoping!

Come to think of it, I remember new episodes of The Boys would drop around 7ish PM the night before their official air dates. Same situation; they were scheduled to come out Friday, they came out Thursday the night before. So this might be standard for Amazon releases.

Can’t say I’ve ever heard noon being referred to as 12AM, but there is ambiguity as to whether “midnight of Thursday” refers to the beginning or the end of Thursday. It tends to mean the end of the day for deadlines but the beginning of the day for releases in my experience.

Please, try not to quote entire posts (narrow it down to the part you're addressing). Anyway, I placed your quote in a spoiler tag - Bernardo

[BernardoCairo]

As far as I'm concerned, 12AM = 0:00 (midnight) and 12PM = 12:00 (noon). That's what I was taught, at least. Oh well. Things would be easier if you guys simply used 0:00 - 23:59. lol

[FullMetalBiscuit]

I'm at a loss for when it drops, at the ComicCon@Home Amazon panel they said midnight EST, but that Amazon twitter reply said midnight GMT. My understanding is that it'll either drop at midnight by timezones or all at once by one. Hoping it's not all at once, cause if it's EST then that means 5am for me.

Also I've never heard anyone refer to 12am as the afternoon. That's 12pm as far as I'm aware and as far as the meaning of PM goes as well. Whatever the case, they've said midnight in that panel so it's going to be midnight somewhere.

Also apparently Amazon usually drops stuff at midnight GMT anyway.

[JoelcrNeto]

[...] drop at midnight by timezones [...]

That's what I understood from Amazon's response.

Well the main cast isn't completely the same. For example, Rei has been recast by her NGE ADV/Manga actress, Amanda Win Lee.
