If it wasn't for the nostalgic soundtrack this would be completely worthless, the fact that they got away with sticking three movies together, cutting out 40 minutes of footage and then completely rewriting the script and changing the placement of scenes to make it seem like there's one continuous narrative blows my mind. The script is about as faithful to the original films as an abridged series or the ghost stories dub.
A stream would be cool.

Everytime I hear one week I think about this movie and I get hit with a huge wave of nostalgia. If I ever have children I will make sure they watch this as children. I know there are some people who hate this here but it's such an important part of my childhood that I can't hate it.

Does Pokémon have anything close to a equivalent to Angelamon?

Better question could he save your parents marriage?

>Zig Forums retroactively calling Angela anaconda a good show because the creator of the cartoon was a lesbian
But why?
Matthew Sullivan
Thanks for the reminder.

What gets me is that story probably real. It’s sounds too random to be made up without any truth to it.
Caleb Allen
it was bound to happen to someone, a movie screen can't contain that much evil without casualties.
Austin Reed
Aight. In 20 minutes if there's enough anons I'll post the link.

>20 year anniversary
This was the first movie I paid within my own money from my first gig trimming trees. Best soundtrack ever
Jace Walker
Part 3 was kinda dissapointing, especially when this guy was the villain of part two.
Gabriel Jenkins
well its hard to top perfection. have you only seen it dubbed? in japan the three parts were three entirely different movies, part 3 got a lot cut out of it/changed about it so you you might like blackfacemon more if you check out the original verson.
Ryan Ross
bath episode in the new series fucking when? they gave yamato and taichi actual butts (and also Weregarurumon because fucking furry artists)

ONE WEEK SINCE YOU LOOKED AT ME

I fucking love this movie. Used to watch it on vhs as a kid and the past pacing, editing and dialogue heavily affected how I talk and behave. It's terrifying how similar my way of thinking is to how the movie goes. Almost as if I watched it so many times as a kid that it conditioned my behaviour.
Some people like to shit on the movie for changing so much about it but watching the original is genuinely painful because of how atrocious the sound design is. It really suffers from the same thing a lot of old anime suffer from, the music seems like an afterthought, like the scene was designed and animated and then they slapped some music that kinda fits the tone and if you're lucky some soundeffects.
Stream would be cool even if it'd probably not be the glorious German Dub I'm used to.
Aiden Barnes
The only thing I can remember about this movie was I was more into what programs were running on the kid's computer than the actual plot.
Levi Torres
why are there two terriermons? why does one look retarded? oh god TK WHATS WRONG WITH YOUR FAAAAAAAAACE
Jayden Watson
Yes, plus the awful short before the movie even starts too. The first Pokemon movie isn't nearly as bad of a translation job but I would still recommend people watch the original sub for Mewtwo's backstory and how Mewtwo is portrayed as less of an evil villain but more of an understandable antagonist who wants to prove his own worth. I know nostalgia is powerful but the source material was not respected by anyone who wanted a quick cash from a Japanese property in the 90s/2000s.
Sebastian Lee
the dub for the first pokemon movie actually had a rerelease that included the cut backstory, which is the version that seems to be on all the streaming sites. unfortunately the changes to the script, simplification of Mewtwo and the "dur fighting bad" stuff 4kids put in is all still there. I grew up watching the movie on VHS over and over so finding out about the cut stuff when I went to watch it online for nostalgia was incredibly surreal

The answer to all your questions is "Ken Penders".
He also did the art for several Beckett Digimon Collector magazines. Cute ideas, mediocre execution.
Jose Gray
OWG comes out surprisingly intact.
Like, the only scenes missing are a few establishing just how rural Yamato and Takeru's grandma is and one tutorial for the Japanese emergency phone system.
The only real script change is Diablomon's origin and that was a non-factor in the original anyway.
