It was dubbed for the fozbox but it turned out a horrible dub though I've never seen it before?
So can anybody tell me anything about Escaflowne?

Escaflowne is one of my personal favorite anime of all time. Even check out my sig. Thats from Escaflowne the movie. Its a great fantasy/romance and its definately worth the money.

I've heard it is a remake of the Television series.
Sounds kinda of bad idea but maybe I'm wrong.

The movie isn't bad at all, and it dosent take place after the series. Its sort of like an alternate look on the series. The movie and series have the same story but told and drawn way differently. Theyre both really good, I cant decide which one I like better.
I wouldnt call the movie a remake, just a different persons view on the same story. Maybe like another director. (Kind of like how the evangelion tv series was told from Hideaki Anno(director), and the manga was told by Yoshiyuki Sadamoto(artist), they were the same story but told by different people). You'll like them both, trust me.

You really wanna know what's the big deal with Escaflowne? Well, let me tell you: those DISTURBINGLY ugly noses! they are just so BIG and UGLY that I could never watch the show because my eyes HURT so much that I just wanted to pick my eyeballs with a knife. I have NEVER in my whole life seen such a thing.
yeah.

Try not too compare the movie with the TV series, since they take a different angle on the outcome for each. True they use the same characters but they have different interactions between the characters. The movie was all too quick, the TV series was superb.

I remember seeing it on YtV or Foxbox, and when i saw the first episodes the music was excellent, and the way they blended cgi and animation, was nice. i autually can't decide who my favorite characters are. i never watched the movie.

what the hell is this thread doing in the romance section!?
anyway escaflowne is amazing, it is also one of my favs, the guymelath transformation sequences are superb, you can tell that the mech designers put a lot of time and effort into making them, story - it too is amazing, i cant fault anything of significance except the noses, yes the noses, there long, too long! animation is great too xD. and the movie, another amazing master piece and with the voice talent of maaya sakamoto, yes the fomous j-pop singer (maaya' songs are great xD), not only backed by a j-idol but the battle sequence between escaflowne and the other guymelath piloted by dilandou is also a specticle to look at, the sparks form the to swords clashing. And last thing the opening of the movie, as Vaan slaughters all those people, very cool!!! watch it, i command you too, if you havnt already that is! |

Well it was different, but then again different is good, not following the others an becoming part of the flock of sheep, it was pretty origianal and also gave i a more emotional ending as Vaan parted with the one who he loved and he only realized his feeling near the end, which made you feel for him in some way.
But the noses, sometimes i would stare at them, they were distracting a bit, but i notice these things more since i am an artist ^^ |

I've watched both the series and the movie n i've loved them. I've heard so many people saying that didn't like escaflowne movie but i don't understand why, well maybe because it's an alternate story and not a sequence of the TV series or maybe because the design is completly different or because of the different personaly of the characters well i don't know. As for me I loved the movie the story, the music everything even more than the TV series.

Shouldn't this topic actually be in the Mecha/Apocalyptic section? I love this series, and want to see all of it soon.

*points to the post she made right above GundamRulz's post* ...I think I just explained that. Also, they aren't really even mecha, are they? They're bio-mechanical, if I recall... Then again, people call Evas mecha, and they aren't...so..meh.
Anyway, your question was already answered. This is an iffy anime as far as catagorizing it. It's got a LOT of romance elements in the series, so fits here. The movie, however, would not fit here nearly as well.
