One one hand it is amazing to be getting Ultraman movies on teh big screen. On the other hand, why the hell do they have to be dubbed? They're live action, they should be subbed. At the very least they should be doing it both ways.

Why are people with animation being dubbed, but not live action? Dubs help introduced a wilder audience.

Except the only people going to see these are Ultraman fans, most of which don't want to watch it dubbed.

A wider audience that doesn't care about the franchise is not going to say, "Hey look, this theater is showing Ultraman, I want to know what that is, let's go see it."

Dubbing Asian stuff into English just does not work. Especially when you dub such a fast-tongued language like Japanese into English. The voices just don't match them, nor the lip syncing. Luckily I have the qc version of the Japanese version from tv-nihon (which has been in qc forever, and is finally canceled).

This is cool! I'd go to that even with the goofy English dub.

I would like a subbed version of the X movie though...

Why couldn't we get subbed movies? Shin Godzilla was great subbed in the theatres. That dubbing sounds so bad lol. Well I hope these do well though.

I was dying of envy when I read this, but then I realized it will be dubbed. Now I feel sorry for you guys.

Yeah, pretty much this. No showings in my state, either.

UK release/Crunchyroll streaming... when, exactly?

This. I'd go see it even with the terrible dubbing.
