ITT we pay homage to the best Pokemon movie in existence. Also, Mewtwo thread.
>best movie
Wasn't the best selling movie Pokémon 2000?
Although I like the first movie the message it tries to send contradicts the rest of the series
Mewtwo was a deep mother fucker.
Should have ended the anime with Ash dying and Mewtwo realizing he was wrong desu.

Wheres Rise of Darkrai?
>>26888511
I always thought it was weird that Mewtwo erased everyone's memories or turned back time or some shit like that. It pretty much defeated the whole lesson they learned

Do you have any idea how cloning works, anon.
>>26888613
Nigga, you do realize this is how cloning works right? We don't have artificial wombs. The cloned zygote is implanted in a surrogate mother and she gives birth.
>>26888613
Why are you still here? Do you just like seeing your own posts? Why don't you just text them to your own phone number or something instead?

THERE'S A PLACE I KNOW
Too bad he'll probably die to Shadow the Edgehog on Wednesday.

sorry feminon

DELETE THIS
All the pokemon movies a shit to be honest.
>>26889300
REEEEEE
>all these Mewtwo posts
Time to mix things up a little
Who else was hype as fuck with Donphan's reveal?
k I'm done
I'm tired
Second and third movies are both better.
Mostly because they don't have Pokemon tears magically ressurecting Marysueamus Prime.
>>26889915
This is haram.
mewtwo is a big guy
>>26888750
It's going to be a composite Mewtwo
Everything will be taken into account
-Game movesets
-Manga feats
-Anime feats
-Spin Off Game feats
-Etc
>>26888628
Mewtwo learned that violence is wrong and stuff, the others already knew all that. Erasing their memories helped protect the cloned pokemon but he changes his mind in the sequel.
>>26888545watch the japanese version. 4kids fucked up the message.
>>26892690
Oh, they went full blown soviet union, it's not even the same movie. I wish more people knew.
>>26892787
Explain.
>>26892827
The biggest offence was that they removed about ten minutes of footage from the beginning of the movie concerning a character named "Ai" and Mewtwo's interaction with her.
Dialog was altered for whatever reason. The best example is during Mewtwo's awakening when he asks if Mew is one of his parents rather then wanting to fight him right out.
The message at the end is distorted from "All life is equal" to "Don't fight". rather strange for a world like Pokemon.
the rest is typical 4kids; changing names, musical score, toning dune themes and violence.
I do encourage anyone to find the original Toho release with subtitles and draw their own conclusion.
>>26893039
I'll take you up on that
>>26893082
Thanks.
>nobody posted mewfit trainer
>>26893321
Then post it yourself loser
>>26893321
>>26893336
Don't defile Mewtwo by posting garbage like that
>>26893039
to be fair, they did at least release those first 10 minutes as a "special." I think it was dubbed completely but cut out from the film, and so they released it later.
>>26888511
I love how mewtwo is the only pokemon to actually age properly, we he him as a young innocent child then he gradually becomes tortured and twisted soul
>>26895361
what the fuck are you talking about?
>>26893344
>>26893336
Faggots.
>>26888511
Friendly reminder that it was only good because of this motherfucker right here
Someone in the /vp/ world said that Mewtwo Strikes Back is a god tier movie, but I watched it recently in jap and this movie doesn't appeal at all...
Am I missing something? Because the philosophy in the first movie was fine
damn he THICC
>>26893039
>The best example is during Mewtwo's awakening when he asks if Mew is one of his parents rather then wanting to fight him right out.
Wait, what? You mean right after he shatters his tank? Because he doesn't say anything about wanting to fight Mew in that scene:
>"That is Mew, the rarest of all Pokemon. [gesturing to Mew carving] From its DNA, we created you: Mew two."
>"Mew 'two'? Am I only a copy? Nothing but Mew's shadow?"
>>26896499
hoodlumscrafty plz leave
>>26896484
I feel the same way
I honestly don't understand when people act like the english dub is terrible compared to the original japanesenot saying it's an amazing movie either waybut it's easily the best pokemon movie
>>26899086
The only reason I think the jap version was any better was the removal of the Amber story in many english versions. Later versions got that back, so...
And that awful song that plays during the clone brawl scene, but the song, while awful, does work there.
And that is totally my judgement on it. It is a decent movie in its own right, but it is a fucking amazing pokemon movie, or movie associated with an anime series in general.
>>26889334
What happened to Mew's tail
>>26893039
>musical score
The 4kids musical score was arguably better than the originalminus BRUUUTHER, MUH BRUUUTHER, then look at the garbage TPCi puts out
>>26898624
Edgy
FeMewtwo >>> 1st movie Mewtwo
>>26895909
You haven't seen Birth of Mewtwo, have you Anon?
>>26902832
i remember some Shadow the Hedgehog like story with a girl just like the one in Sonic Adventure 2 that like died, maybe, and he was all edgy about it.
it was a long time ago
>>26900902
Right, about that. Do let's talk about this.
Did anybody actually own this back in the day? I remember seeing it at the store and just shitting my pants. I nagged my parents for it and they caved, got home and popped that sucker into my walkman, only to be sorely dissapointed. I thought, "what the hell are these songs and why are they in here".
Of course, I now realise that most of those non-Pokemon tracks had been desperately crammed into the credits and that's what had given them an excuse to put them in the soundtrack. But at the time I didn't even recognize them (save for We're a Miracle by Christina Aguilara, that made a huge impression on me, I guess since it was the first(?) song that played in the credits.)
Fast forward to today, though, I fucking love it and listen to it frequently because nostalgia, goddammit.
>>26898624
holy fuck pic. Any more of those?
>>26901226
Nope.
Fuck off fagtard.
>>26904527
I have it on CD somewhere.
>>26904733
> Whaaa! Whaaa! I let the second human I meet manipulate me so now I'm gonna kill all pokemon and replace them with clones!
vs.
>Yeah humans are shit but who cares, I'm gonna protect pokemon
>>26904527
I begged my parents to buy me the soundtrack when I was a kid. I was really disappointed when I popped it in the CD player and found out it was just random pop songs instead of actual Pokemon music. Still played the shit out of it though.
I remember searching everywhere for a vhs of the movie just because I wanted the Mewtwo card so badly. Could never get it, but the ones from the second and third movie were a nice consolation.
Maybe I could buy it online one of these days, for nostalgia's sake.
>>26907592
Which Mewtwo card? I have it just don't know which. Will post if you want.
>>26907317
LMAO great post!
>>26907627
This one. I remember magazines listing it as the best most powerful card yet. I wonder if it was true even at the time.
>>26907671
yup, it was a very powerful card for its time in 2000.
there are at least 2 variants of this card (the other being the WB stamped one), but both function the exact same. you use energy absorption to power up and psyburn to dominate.
tech-in with the Alakazam/Chansey damage swap deck skeleton, and you've got yourself a solid tank of a Mewtwo.
>>26889409
I like how many artists convey Mew and Mewtwo in a Pinky and the Brain way.
>>26888628
They didn't have to learn a lesson, Mewtwo did.
>>26896464
Yup.
>>26907705
Thanks. Nice to know. It's so weird now seeing powerful cards with less than 100HP and needing three energies to make 30 or 40 of damage. It was a simpler time.
