Essentially, to sum all of the problems up into one word, it was contrived... and rushed. Sorry, that was two words. In my opinion, everything that happened in this movie happened because they needed it to happen. They needed new monsters - insert a hundred different variations of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon that had no build-up, reason for existing or proper differentiation (more on this later). They needed a new enemy that had to be related to the cast somehow to make him relevant - shoehorn in some subplot was never hinted at or talked about in the original series so it felt like it came out of nowhere. They needed Atem to appear again and appear he did EVEN THOUGH IT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE ANY SENSE!

Urgh... the plot. Don't even get me started. I've already talked about the shoehorned-in villain, but boy does it get better. The plot was unnecessarily convoluted and yet still managed to be contrived and seem like it came out of nowhere. What in the world was with this collective consciousness nonsense? Why is it important and how does it relate to anything? Why was Kaiba's Duel Disk perfectly equipped to combat his powers? Seriously, it could have been anything else and have been much better explained and understandable. How could Kaiba pull out a God Card from the ground and play it with his virtual system?

Speaking of Kaiba, that subplot with his obsession was really at odds with Aigami's plot. There was hardly any correlation. Not to mention, sure he was obsessed with Yugi, but they really pushed his obsession a little too far in this one. Though, I have to admit, that would have been a compelling enough story in and of itself if they had taken their time to expand on it. Also, Kaiba removing the Millennium Puzzle from the crypt and actually solving it with technology was kinda cool, but it completely ruined the mystique of the items. Wouldn't it have been even cooler if his high-tech machines failed to solve the puzzle?

>>155437855
That climax... Oh God. Remember how I was talking about them introducing new monsters for the sake of it? Well, screw duel tactics and anything of the sort, the ending was just a monster spam that got boring after the 100th "HERE'S A MORE POWERFUL MONSTER THAN YOURS". Seriously, if I have to sit though another Cubic monster and Blue-Eyes iteration that has zero differentiation from one another... This was obviously because they were rushed for time. They had a quota of monsters to push and there was no way they could dedicate 30 minutes to build up a single monster.

Also, the GOD DAMN CG. Why are some monsters like the Black Magician and the Black Magician Girl in normal 2D, simulated-cel animation while many of the other monsters were rendered in 3DCG? Seriously, STICK TO ONE. It's horrendous enough that they used CG, but if they had made ALL the monsters CG, there would have been at least a point! You know, creating a disconnect between the real and the virtual? But no, we can't have our Black Magician Girl be polygons, can we?

This is a perfect example of an unnecessary sequel that was made for the sake of being made. Regardless of what the creator said, I felt zero passion from this project and everything was paint-by-numbers and forced. For a fan, I really don't think I would have missed out if I hadn't seen it. Personally speaking, the ONLY good thing that came out of this was unexpected Bakura Flashback

my complaint is that there are too many damn guys

>>155437623
Maybe because nostalgiafags are disgusting subhumans that shouldn't be pandered to?

To be honest, Aigami was a shit villain. Remove him and his subplot, focus more on Kaiba's obsession with Atem, build it up in the first 30 minutes or so and the rest of movie's runtime can be focused on Kaiba and Yugi's duel. I'm sure it would have been more entertaining.

Yugioh is probably the only thing I need the dub and not the sub for.

I was kinda hoping Bakura would get back the ring to BTFO Aigami and steal back the main antagonist title, just like usual.

Arc-V had a whole year after the movie to fix it's problems and only went downhill.

I stopped following Yu-Gi_oh a long time ago, I am not familiar with the cards played in the movie. I still enjoyed it immensely. It was just nice to get to hang out with Yugi and his friends, to once again witness the glorious madman that is Seto Kaiba. It had nothing to do with the actual card game, more about the aesthetic of the show and the atmosphere. It's a movie, so who cares about the villain? They aren't the story, they're the excuse for the story, the vehicle. The movie totally delivered on the traditional YGO aesthetic, I liked it a lot.

>>155438133
Fucking ages ago. In fact, the dub came out first. I still remembering waiting months for that sub.

>>155439143
Should show the duel to see he is jobbing again

>>155437623
>>They dont even explain what the hell they do
That was the weirdest thing to me, I actually had to look up the wiki to figure out how the fuck Yugi won in the last turn. It's like they assumed viewers would be familiar with the card effects even though most of these cards are new and their OCG versions often have completely different effects, especially the Cubics.

>>155439143
Yes. More Kaiba being Kaiba and Yugi duelling entirely as Yugi and no Atem.
As far as nostalgia baits go, better than Digimon Tri.

>>155439132
Obelisk is the only god Yami summoned during the final duel in the manga.

The soul still lingers in that site after it's defeated, so Kaiba just called him back.

>>155439212
Obelisk is the only good God card in the meta game anyways

>>15543797
Latest Yugioh has no Gishki and just Extra Deck Abuse.

Only Links and Old Yugioh can save us now.

>>155437623
I was disappointed that Joey didn't duel Aigami so he could show off some new cards of his own. The whole thing about him wanting a new duel disk went nowhere.

>>155437623
>They dont even explain what the hell they do
That's the best part of the movie. "Let explain what pot of greed does" breaks the flow of the matches all too often, especially in anime form. It's so much better to have Yugi just summon Palladium Oracle Mahad and get on with the fight without breaking up the flow of the battle with
>B-BAKANA!!??
>Palladium Oracle Mahad can be special summoned from hand when I draw it!

>>155439320
Yeah he's a pretty neat character for other side characters in the series

Too bad nearly everyone else is worthless and he gets bunched up with them

>>155439248
That would actually be Ra these days thanks to Sphere Mode.

>>155439248
Not really.

He's the least shit god card but he's still shit.

And Sphere Mode is better.

The man OWNS the city, all of its profit, various acres of land and space, endless amounts of priceless cards, multiple high profit chains around the world, owns literal fucking foundations of random scientific/engineering/space colonization/whatever, a self funding globalized monopolized company --with hundreds of thousands of employees-- that basically controls Duel Monsters and all of it's rights and property (Except the cards themselves), a game astronomically more popular than even our most popular sports, so much that it's basically a way of life for most young adults.

Remember battle city? Kaiba is so rich, he changed law (No one can dispute him, since he owns everything), put thousands in danger, created new dueling technology and then forced everyone to buy it, bought an island, built a battle blimp, built a battle tower on island, then BLEW IT UP--simply because he wanted to,and left on his private Blue Eyes waifu jet to go make billions of the American market, all for the sake of his ego towards some guy who beat him in a children's card game.

>>155439742
That was the old Kaiba before Yugi mind crushed him, destroying the evil within. Now he's a good wholesome Kaiba who threatens suicide if he is about to lose, kidnaps people, spies on everyone, and is totally ok watching his employees die.

>>155440028
>threatens suicide if he is about to lose
He did it for his brother; he had no choice but to do anything to win so he could save him.

>kidnaps people
Never has

>spies on everyone
He owns the city, he's not really "spying" on anyone. Maybe go build your own city

>Watching his employees die
It was vr, and on the contrary Kaiba is an amazing employer. Not only does he give jobs to hundreds of thousands of people while fueling their economy, his jobs probably come with great pay, benefits, and hours.

Yes, but Kaiba clearly has magic cancelling tech, it's in his duel disc, in the deprivation mask they put on Diva, in the suits his goon squad wears while they kidnap him, etc..

Why couldn't he have turned on his duel disc 10s sooner to save his bodyguard guy?

>You will never be spied on, forced to register your deck and put in danger for the sole reason of playing card games by Kaiba
Why even live?

bakura should have been the villain again

Does the spirit of the millennium ring even really exist anymore? It just seemed like a corrupting evil force that changes the host, rather than an entity that takes over.

Watched it in the cinema. The movie was pure Kino. Of course the dimensional duels sucked, but from a nostalgia standpoint it was fantastic. It was also super self aware and it kinda felt like the dub crew watched the abridged series and worked some of the jokes into the script. Like there was a scene where Kaiba's A.I. said something about how rich or clever he is after which he tells it that he already knows, to which the A.I. replies that it already knew that he knows, but it also knows that he likes to hear about his own greatness.
All in all 8/10, would pay to watch the next movie.

>>155441172
The "villain" of the movie is Shadi. His actions keep causing problems even after everything that has happen.

It's based on Kaz's alternative design of the card. I think it also appeared like that in the last part of the manga.
