I wasn't too hopped up to check out Season 2 when it came out subbed weekly, so I still have to watch a good 4 or 5 more episodes from it. This was mainly because even though I generally liked Season 1, it didn't pull me in as much as I thought it would (and besides, every website I went on had different episode orders, which screwed me up quite a bit.)
I'll finish Haruhi S2 soon (I'm past Endless Eight, and from what I hear, the rest of it is fairly good xD; ) and wow, a movie, eh? I hope it'll conclude something huge (I just have this feeling that Haruhi will find out about her being a God, go a little insane and eventually become scared of herself. Kyon will somehow snap her out of it, she'll accept her duty and fix something, and then something will happen that will make her forget. But... that's just mere speculation on my part, and I still have to finish S2. =\)

Something will happen, you mean, that'll make the rest of the movie completely pointless (i.e. she rewinds time or something), eh? I like it. It's Donnie Darko style.

One would think so, especially with the release of it (supposedly) being so close :O

I finished S2 completely now!
Well just as Season 1's ending didn't feel like the end, neither did Season 2's. =\ It was good and all (and gawsh, how I loved S2's animation :up: ) but I did find myself checking the time every now and again while watching an episode. They needed more action in episodes (S1: Giant insects, psychopathic robotic schoomates wielding blades etc. S2? S2 had a Mikuru Beam, and that was about it.) Still, I'll look forward to the upcoming movie. :)

Yuki looking afraid in 2 shots and the return of the psychopathic robotic school mate had me speechless.
This movie actually looks really awesome! I'm REALLY looking forward to it, now! :D

That teaser says only one thing. 'beg for it bitch'.

I suppose all us Haruhi fans will be waiting for it now all the more.
Anime, one of the few things about the internet that doesn't make me hate the internet.

From what I can interpret from the trailer, I think that since Haruhi disappears, Koizumi, Yuki and so on think they are normal people while Kyon remembers all of them in their supernatural forms.
That also might explain why the blue-haired program-girl appeared (because it could be like that fight never happened, and she did not need to be programmed because Haruhi is gone.)

Speculation, but quite possible. It reminds me of the 3rd Bleach movie a bit, but just 1000x better. XD

The English voice cast had better return for this new movie. If they don't, I'm going to be disappointed. Is there any word on that yet? Because this dub was just awesome. I really hated all dubs until I saw this show, it completely proved wrong everything I thought about anime dubs, and it gave me a little more faith in them. The English voice acting was almost just as good as the Japanese! And it appears I'm not the only one who thinks so. Alot of others I've met really enjoyed the English dub for Haruhi, so not dubbing this new movie would be a very bad choice for Bandai. I mean, I was disappointed when they didn't end up dubbing season 2, but then I realized it makes perfect sense why they decided not to dub season 2, it mostly consisted of one episode the entire time, and dubbing it would be a total waste of money and talent for them. But considering how many people are likely going to buy this movie in America, dubbing the movie would earn so much money for Bandai! Seriously, unless this movie just plain sucks, there's no reason not to dub it.

What do you guys think? And if you didn't like the Haruhi dub (even though you should), don't flame please.

This. Looks reaaaaaally epic. Haruhi Suzumiya with actual depth? I'm game.

What are you talking about? As far as I've heard, they haven't even announced that they've LICENSED season 2, much less started dubbing it. I'm sure they will be producing a dub in due time just as with the first season.
