I went with a guy that works in the film industry and loving hates everything and he loved it.

If you want a Pokemon anime you will be disappointed; if you want a mix of Blade Runner with Roger Rabbit visuals and a magical realism kinda story you will not throw a fit like a weeb at the end of the movie.

Imagine telling yourself a decade ago a live action pikachu movie with ryan reynolds would be legit heartwarming and good.

yeah like I don't know how to feel about liking that movie so much as a grown man in my mid 30's, but I really liked it a lot and it made me happy inside

but at least I wasn't the three weebs booing it in the theater when the credits rolled who bitched through the entire movie about the loving anime and how the pokemon didn't look how they're supposed to

i had a real fun experience at the theatre seeing all the pokemon and reliving the nostalgia of the first movie, but if i think too hard about it after-the-fact it all falls apart like a house of cards

so i'm choosing not to think to hard about it





but really why did the bad guy need to make everyone pokemon? they just did that to have an excuse for the RR dad reveal, it woulda be just as cool a movie if it was that the bad guy wanted to steal mewtwo's body and pikachu and RR would have had the same motivations but instead RR is kidnapped or some poo poo and mewtwo put RR's spirit in pikachu to help him find his son, whammo blammo

I couldn't figure this out either. I was split between "it cures my incurable disease so this is good for everybody" and "I have a final solution for humanity" type thing, except it couldn't have affected anyone outside Rime City anyway so :shrug:

i’m legit confused no one explicitly dies? except johnny he’s prolly gonna die. but it doesn’t really matter the story ends and they’re all hosed.


it’s a good movie i’ve seen it a few times now but i think i’ve been drinking each of those times.

So lemme guess the bad guy wants to liberate the pokemon but our imperialistic slaver hero saves the day again by keeping sentient beings enslaved and forced to fight in gladiator combat.
