I'm still surprised that BEM ended up getting a movie, let alone that Funi licensed it. I was under the impression that the series didn't do that well.

Anyway, I'm definitely interested in watching it since Bem himself didn't really get a chance to shine in the series like Bela and Belo did.

I was surprised, too. My guess would be that the movie was probably greenlit quite a while ago as part of the anniversary project, so that might explain how it came to be. The Funimation license is the more surprising thing to me. They are kind of all over the place on whether sequel movies and/or OVAs get licensed at all or anywhere close to when they came out. Like you said, BEM doesn't strike me as something that did especially well, but maybe that meant that license fees were cheap enough to get it.
