2 ways that pops into my head
1)They end the first movie with all the 12 shadows destroyed, but that would leave the 2nd movie with not much action anymore, in other words 2nd movie would be boring
Do you play Persona for the action? I sure don't (not to say the gameplay isn't cool and stuff, but I dig the story and characters more). And I wouldn't expect anything different from the movie; story is a big part here so why not. I certainly would do it that way.
let me put it this way if you split it that way
the first movie will have 12 shadows each with their own battles, 12 battles
the second movie will have Jin and Takaya battle and then NyX battle, 3 battles
comparing the 2 obviously the second movie will be slightly more boring
PS: yes i do play for the gameplay if its just the story i would have stopped after 1 playthrough but i've played this game 3 times already

I wouldn't really use the word "boring"... that would implicate that the movie is only "not boring" if there are a lot of battles; which is obviously a false statement for the majority of all movies ever made.
I kinda know what you mean, but my point is: "action" is not what makes a good movie. Especially when it's plot-heavy to begin with.

Wouldn't the first movie be rather.. Rushed? It's not like the Arcana Boss' just died after you hit them with Bash. I think they'd stop somewhere 'round the tenth boss, make the first two or three boss fights short, give them room for random story stuff, then make the more challenging Boss battles a little lengthy[Like Strength... I was underleveled for that... Got raped.].

Spoiler:
that could work but then having it end at just 10th boss is kinda anti-climactic
never mind i just thought of something, i think they could end the 1st movie at "SPOILERS" death that would make a good ending for the 1st movie i suppose :P

i understand what you're saying, im just saying if 1 movie is action packed and then its sequel doesnt deliver as much action kinda lame that way

Actually I think the second movie could start out with the 12th shadow and the first battle with Strega, and go from there. Seems like a good enough starting point.

I choose Persona 3 because I want to see Thanatos on action.....
That Persona is cool and badass at the same time.....
And thanks for the rep!!!

Devil Summoner would make an awesome movie.Yes, I would have to agree with you cause I would like to hear some voice acting in Devil Summoner 1 and 2.

I also think Persona 3 would be a good movie material. The story is well developed enough to be made into a movie. Also hearing ,"Burn My Dread", on the big screen would be awesome :3. But technically speaking it would be nice to see how the shadows would be depicted in a movie, as well as the personas themselves.
