Details on the film's plot are non-existent, but our hopes are high, as the animation featured in the brainteasing DS series is already gorgeous. Unfortunately, we're not sure we could enjoy the film should it make its way to the states -- we'd likely spend most of the movie scouring the silver screen for glimpses of precious hint coins.

Critical thinking is the key to success!
I believe they'll use the same artists they used for the FMV that are on the game, as well as the great music that goes hand by hand with the art style.
Can't wait for it to come out.

Yay! This game was really fun, and the atmosphere was great.

How well did the game sell outside Japan? They sure are dragging their feet getting the sequel released.

I'll finance your film Layton, but first, could you solve this puzzle for me?

I'd seriously go watch that film on the first day.. ever since I started playing Layton I said it needed it's own movie.. let's hope it makes it to this side of the globe (and as un-crap-ified as possible kthxbai)

"One ticket for Professor Layton please."
"Professor Layton? That reminds me of a puzzle."

The cutscenes in the game did lend to it that classic feel I got from watching A Dog of Flanders and A Little Princess way back in the day.
