I'm a bit confused. According to the encyclopedia, Genius Party is an omnibus. Isn't it something like Memories or Neo-Tokyo? It's strange that the GP page has the titles from both Genius Party and Genius Party Beyond. Shouldn't they be two separate titles?

I didn't provide anything but questions in the original post so I dug up a bit. Maybe Robot Carnival would have been a better comparison.
From the FPS Magazine interview: "The film consists of fourteen omnibus pieces by fourteen selected directors. It was initially planned as eight stories by eight directors, but the number has been increased to fourteen. The total length of the film will be almost 180 minutes, equal to the sum of two regular films. So many directors favoured the concept of this project and wanted to participate in it. The number of those who want to participate is still increasing." [Genius Party will now be presented as two compilations of seven films each. —Ed.] It changed to one of seven and one of five. Genius Party premiered on July 7th of 2007: http://geniusparty.jugem.jp/?eid=29 This is the program of the American premiere of Genius Party and world premiere of Genius Party Beyond on February 16th of 2008: http://kennedy-center.org/calendar/index.cfm?fuseaction=showEvent&event=XIJFN The official website also view both as connected but independent. If anything else, they will be commercialized separately. |
