Want to watch the Utena movie?  Netflix has it streaming.  RightStuf has it as part of their newly released box set.  Amazon sells the older Software Sculptures edition used from $8.

I didn't mind the movie dub, I think it was much nicer

I do have a question about the movie, though ; It might sound really stupid, but why not ask ya know? So, I now own 3 copies of the movie xD (cmp set, rightstuf set, and the first copy of the movie i bought independently at half price books when i was like 12.) My first copy was the one i bought from half price (i didnt get on the internet unless it was for school [didnt have my own computer at home] and most of my anime/manga came from half price, and library.) i didnt know as much as i do now and i was basically "THERE'S AN UTENA MOVIE ?! *drool* must have!" so i bought it for 7$. XD

It had the same cover as the cmp set, but the disk was different (i actually bought the cmp right before rightstuf announced it was going to be re-released ) and I think I had a boot leg. it had this on the disk ~> http://www.ohtori.nu/galerie2/v/movie/a … 6.png.html not anthy, just that picture of utena. she was on..a purple or blue background and a pink ring on the outside. the disk was in decent condition, but on the title screen, utena and anthy wouldnt dance, they were just kind of glitchy. you couldnt access the special features, just watch the movie and the audio/ subtitle selection. the back had something about hong kong and some chinese on it, and an email...i actually have lost the entire thing, so im just going from memory xD and it doesnt really matter, i was just curious if it was a bootleg o_O

Apologies, Satyreyes. I wasn't really intending for this to specifically be a 'help me find a pirated SKU' thing - more like anything I could get, not necessarily free. In any case, I had no idea Netflix had it - I searched several times, but anyway, thanks. I'll be sure not to ask anything like this again. :s

No worries   I know you'll both follow the rules now that you know 'em.

I think movies generally have bigger budgets, more time dedicated, and higher production quality. Anime episodes are generally "Get it out the door! (then fix it on the BlueRay)" production quality nowadays. I imagine with the Utena series it was the same, sans the ability to fluff things up afterwards.

Purposely done! Glad someone else found it amusing.
Usually I 'd just lurk. =3
