List of Saint Seiya Films

List Of Saint Seiya Films

Due to the series' high popularity in Japan and the rest of the world, four films based on Saint Seiya were released in theatres or TV between 1987 and 1989, while the original TV series was still airing. The plots of these films do not comply with the chronology of the manga or anime storylines and therefore it is unknown at what point the events of the films take place. A fifth film named Heaven Chapter: Overture was released in 2004, originally intended to initiate a continuation of the manga.

Despite the first movie being released in 1987, none of the movies received an official English release in North America, until it was announced by Discotek in 2012 that they had acquired the rights to all four movies, with the intention of releasing them to home video across two DVDs, each containing two of the movies. However, no English dub will be produced for any of the movies, and the DVDs will only contain the original Japanese audio track with English subtitles.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, saint and/or films:

    Do your children view themselves as successes or failures? Are they being encouraged to be inquisitive or passive? Are they afraid to challenge authority and to question assumptions? Do they feel comfortable adapting to change? Are they easily discouraged if they cannot arrive at a solution to a problem? The answers to those questions will give you a better appraisal of their education than any list of courses, grades, or test scores.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Fight on for Scottland and Saint Andrew
    Till you heare my whistle blowe.
    —Unknown. Sir Andrew Barton.

    EnSB. English and Scottish Ballads (The Poetry Bookshelf)

    Television does not dominate or insist, as movies do. It is not sensational, but taken for granted. Insistence would destroy it, for its message is so dire that it relies on being the background drone that counters silence. For most of us, it is something turned on and off as we would the light. It is a service, not a luxury or a thing of choice.
    David Thomson, U.S. film historian. America in the Dark: The Impact of Hollywood Films on American Culture, ch. 8, William Morrow (1977)
