If this WoW movie succeeds, Hollywood will inevitably create a shitstorm of authentic looking vidyashit films. If that happens, what property would you most least want to see.

Pic related.

I think the pokémon show is already the "vidyashit film" for pokémon franchise, there's 0 need for more.

Also, animals fighting just look cool in cartoon.

>most least want to see
wait... wat.

In any event, I've dedicated an almost obscene level of thought into how one would go about adapting Pokemon into a live action movie, and it seems like it would be extraordinarily difficult.

The problem is that the narrative of the games are extremely linear and repetitive and not at all cinematic. The entire thrust of the plot is in collecting pokemen and defeating gym leaders. You can make a decent first film by introducing Ash and Pikachu and having him explore the world catching Pokemen and culminating with a climactic Pewter city gym battle. The trouble is, what comes after that? Just do the same thing eight times over? That's super boring and wouldn't really sustain eight movies.

Granted, it would be super cool to see that world brought to life. I don't now.

Yeah, you would almost certainly have to plan on making a metric fuckton of movies in order to make it work. It would probably work best to forgo the Animu route and focus on Ash and Gary and their rivalry, the end goal of the franchise being seeing the two of them battle each other as for the title of Pokemon League Champion (I feel like I just regrew my cherry for typing that).
>>
Hope they don't try Max Payne again. Alan Wake should be left alone. Just about every zombie should be left alone.

Maybe a GTA miniseries if it isn't a direct adaptation, GTA games typically have some entertaining dialogue so that could cross mediums.
>>
>>67915719
I think it could work if you were change around the whole gym leader plot device slightly. Definitely don't go with eight badges, that's way too repetitive, but if you were to adapt in such a way as to forgo the Gym Badge system, but keep some sort of Pokemon League element as a plot device, you might be able to narrow it down to a trilogy.

Granted since everything has to be a cinematic universe these days, I think there is a lot of things you could do within the Pokemon world in general that doesn't necessarily have to revolve around Ash/Red.

But dayum, now that you brought up the Pewter Gym battle as a climax, I'm envisioning Ash beating Geodude and gloating, then Brock throwing a second Pokeball and who bursts out but a 30 foot long demonic looking Onyx in all it's big budget Hollywood glory, and it triggers my nostalgia.
>>
>>67915719
Nah

First film, world building and 2 gym leaders, introduces rival
Second film picks up 3 gym leaders later, more experienced main character fights another 2 gyms, totaling 7 plus Team Rocket
Third film is the 8th gym and Elite Four

Enjoy

I don't know, I kind of agree with him. It would be absurdly goofy, but I'd rather see something like that than a boring straightforward adaptation.

That wouldn't even make sense
Super Smash Bros is literally a video game about a child's imagination. It's not meant to actually be possible for them to fight.
Obviously they could change it to fit the narrative, but I don't really see how it would even make sense.
>>
>>67917909
>Super Smash Bros is literally a video game about a child's imagination. It's not meant to actually be possible for them to fight.
Then affix it to the narrative of each individual film that it's a Winnie the Pooh/ Never ending story affair, and have them all come together in the end. Obviously the Super Smoosh Bros movie would need to have some sort of plot beyond, "and then they fight," but it could work.

No, you make it about The Chosen Undead and Solaire retrieving and filling the Lordvessel. It would basically just be an extended version of Bilbo and Sam's journey through Mordor.

Skip bellringing, skip Sen's Fortress, Cut the lord soul segment to just Nito and Seath (you could even cut Seath), write it so they circumnavigate the catacombs and arrive at Tomb of Giants via Lost Izalith so you can keep the Sunlight Maggot stuff in . Make Solaire gay.

>>67923249
I could be wrong, but if I recall correctly, the Japanese version of the Pokemon movie expains that Mewtwo was created by combining the DNA found in one of Mew's fossilized eyelashes with DNA from Dr Fuji, the guy whose journal you read on Cinnabar Island. I'm guessing he's supposed to look exactly like what you described.
>>
>>67923370
I'm not sure about the movie, but don't they more or less insinuate that in the game? I mean, Mewtwo is obviously made to look like Mew mixed with a human. If they don't state it directly, I think that's the obvious subtext.
>>
>>67923143
Yeah, that thing was definitely based on Mewtwo. The shape of it is more or less identical, right down to the hands and feet. Has anyone on the creative team confirmed that?
>>
>>67923662
Yeah, I believe they did as a matter of fact. It was during the press tour, the director said something about how the whole genetic frankenstein plot reminded somebody of Mewtwo and that inspired the design of that particular stage of Dren's physiology. There are a few "geek culture" references hidden throughout that movie if I remember it correctly.
