aight, i've got a sneaking suspicion and i'm going to air it here. Discotek Media sub-contracted BangZoom! Entertainment to do several English sub/dub for Conan movies and specials. problem is, they haven't done all the movies AND they haven't done a Conan movie since Movie 22 'Zero the Enforcer' BACK IN 2020! BUT NETFLIX has subcontracted BZ!E for English sub/dub of Zero's anime and Hanzawa-kun's anime.
so, here's my suspicion. NETFLIX is going to buy the rights to stream/sub/dub Movies 23 and forwards and subcontract BangZoom! Entertainment for the sub/dub. Discotek Media ACTUALLY printed/released/distributed/sold BlueRay disks of the Conan movies they got the rights to. but, as we all know... NETFLIX doesn't sell disks... they just stream.
so, what do you folks think? NETFLIX snatched Zero and Hanzawa-kun's anime up from under the noses of mega-media conglomerate SONY/Aniplex/Funimation/Crunchyroll (who are presently streaming subs for Conan's main anime) ... SEVERAL Funimation 'head honchos' for years have stated that Funi won't dub Conan ever again... thank god... that thing suuucked. :p bleck! :p but why would Funi-Roll NOT pick up Zero and Hanzawa-kun's anime? also, why wouldn't Funi-Roll get any of the Conan movies since Discotek Media 'seems' to be uninterested in the movies since 2020? |
