Not sure if anyone else was excited for this movie, but I caught up on the entire series in preparation for this movie and it was a great payoff for the work. I had asked last week what was necessary viewing for the movie, and now I know while you can get away with not watching anything past Sinners of the System, you’re doing yourself a disservice if you don’t finish the entire series prior to the film.
No spoilers, but despite it being a prequel to season 3 it answers a lot of questions and plot points from season 3 in a way that’s best enjoyed already having these questions in mind. There are characters and thought experiments that, while important to the movie, I would not have cared nearly enough about had I not at been completely caught up.
So anyone on the fence but does enjoy Psycho Pass, high recommend, i thoroughly enjoyed it. And for anyone curious, still doesn’t hit the highs of season 1 but it’s been consistently close since Sinners of the System came out so I think it’s something worth watching
Is season 3 necessary to watch the movie? I watched all Sinners of the System movies (and liked them), but I dropped season 3. Really didn’t like it. It felt too far removed from the Psycho Pass world
Is this a theatre release?
It is a theater release atm, not sure how many screens are still playing it however. It looks like it’s got a couple days left in my city before its out of circulation, not sure about your area
