Why were the first 2 Pokemon Movies the best and everything after them sucked hard?
>>
why does everybody keep sucking pokemon 2000's fat dick
>>
>>27364644

Because you were young and didn't know any better, and you remember them being better than they were. None of the Pokemon movies are very good, the first ones included.
>>
You grew up. That's the only way you could think the 2nd movie is better than the 3rd.
>>
nigger what are you talking about the Entei movie was just as good
>>
>>27364644
Thats nostalgia talking and blatantly not true. 4ever, Heroes, Jirachi Wishmaker, Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, Pokemon Ranger and the Prince of the Sea, Giratina and the Sky Bouquet, and Keldeo's movie are all really good.
>>
every pokemon movie sucks
>>
>>27364644
Production values droped.
>>
The first three and Destiny Deoxys are the only good ones.
>>
>imFUCKINGplying that Entie movie isnt supreme god tier

We can all atleast agree that gen 5 had the absolute worst movies

The victini movie was so fucking boring, it actually pulled the "Ash is dead but not really" card to build interest

and don't get me started on the Keldeo movie, literally no fucking story, and Kyurem can suddenly change between forms at will
>>
>>27364714
Except Destiny Deoxys is fucking garbage. It wasted Rayquaza and a chunk of the movie is the cast locked down in a city. It's rubbish, especially the subplot with the little boy.

I think one of the problems is that legendaries in the early movies actually felt epic.

Newer movies just go full

>WOAH EPIX LEGENDARIES EVERYWHERE XDDD HERE IS POKEGOD FIGHTING LMAO SUMMON LEGENDARIES EVERYWHERE x^DDD DUDE LOL SO EPIC MEGA RAYGUAZA 1V1
>>
>>27364782
The Victini movie was mediocre as fuck, but at least it didn't have retarded shit like a fat old cartoon pirate for a villain and Ash doing a super saiyan Aqua Jet. The other two movies weren't really that bad (especially since 7 had an adorable shota).
>>
>>27364644
The first movie was great. The second movie was meh.

The second movie looses a ton of its luster once you stop wanting to suck Lugia's dick.

Lucario and the Mystery of Mew is the only good Pokemon movie.

>>27364941
I prefer Ho-oh over Lugia but the Movie was still great.

>>27364956
Furfag bait movie. Lucario is one of those few pokemon I genuinely hate.

Actually the first movie pissed me off,

No one can do anything.
"Stop it Mewtwo"
"Stop it Zapdos"
"Stop it Entei"

Fucking dogshit protagonist

>a bunch of rando trainers who literally nothing to do with anything
Have some game characters in there, why not have Gary and his harem?
Why not have some gym leaders?
That whole tears thing near the end was bullshit.
Clones should have been obliterated
Mewtwo should have been a fucking corpse, by the end of the movie.
Seemed like it was catering to little girls more so than anything.
>>
>>27365126
>why not have Gary and his harem?
because gary was mewtwo's first victim?

I rewatched them recently and they really all are shit. I know they're movies for children, but that shouldn't allow you to get away with making mediocre crap.

The Zoroark movie is good because half of it is angry Zoromom tearing shit up and the other half is Zorua being a little shit causing pranks

>>27365195
Better than dogshit Ash screaming
"Stop it Mewtwo."
>>

>That whole tears thing near the end was bullshit.
Because it wasnt originally planned and was added last minute.

Ash was supposed to stay a rock
>>
>>27365126
>>27365327
I'm sure Mewtwo brought him back to life without realizing it because he was "reminded" of that girl's death he cried over himself, but couldn't really really remember it because his memories were erased.
>>
best movie by far is the one when Ash encounters that legendary pokemon
>>
Because you were 12.

Literally why.

I give you the first movie, but the Lugia movie sucked and the Hoopa movie, to give you a more recent example, is much better.
>>

But the first movie was terrible. Almost as bad as the third.

The Entei movie was good.

When they showed this in the trailer for this movie when it came out I got fucking goosebumps. Charizard battling a Legendary Pokemon while Ash rides on his back? Holy fucking Christ are you serious?
>>
>>27365535
I loved the backgrounds and art concepts in this movie. The dream arenas, especially the meadow, are pretty as fuck.
The ending is a big series of asspulls, though.
>>
>>27365535
Entei is a cheater, Charizard won. I guess that's not really a real Entei though, so whatever.

This movie is God-tier regardless.

Pokemon 2000 is shit.

Nothing fucking happens until the last like, 10 minutes. The dialogue is silly and fun, yeah, but Christ the whole flick is so goddamn boring.

Jirachi movie is so trash that I wanted my time back after watching it at 1am during my school holidays, piece of trash that has nothing happen at all, and when something does happen, it's shit.

>>
>>27366005
>>27366060
I enjoyed the fake Groudon part of the Jirachi movie, because it very briefly feels like a Pokemon version of a kaiju film.
The rest is boring garbage. I can still hear the "doo doo doo" quality musical number in my head.

Bullshit. Mewtwo strikes back is a very solid movie even with the japanese scenes that add a ton to the story taken out.

Are you alright in the head? Do you need help?

First is the best tier:
Mewtwo Strikes Back

Unironically pretty good:
Latios and Latias
Spell of the Unown
The Rise of Darkrai

Not very good but still casual fun tier:
The Power of One
The Pokémon Ranger and the Prince of the Sea: Manaphy
Arceus: To Conquering Space-Time
Phantom Ruler: Zoroark

I'm having problems trying to enjoy it tier:
Visitor from the Sky-Splitting: Deoxys
Giratina and the Bouquet of the Frozen Sky: Shaymin
Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction

This is bad tier:
White/Black first movie(s) - Zerkrom/Reshiram
The Archdjinni of the Rings: Hoopa

Terrible tier:
Wishing Star of the Seven Nights: Jirachi
Mew and the Aura Hero: Lucario

Pokemon was a mistake tier:
Celebi: Voice of the Forest
Kyurem vs. the Sacred Swordsman: Keldeo
ExtremeSpeed Genesect: Mewtwo Awakens


Trust me on this, I've watched them all subbed multiple times and have given this a lot of thought.
>>
Thematically, only the first and third movie mattered in the slightest. They felt more like movies for its character-driven (as little as it may have been) storyline and use of actual themes that were done at least somewhat right; and those themes made them somewhat unique as well.

I give credit to the third one for using Unown as a major plot element since most of the movies (if not all) focus on legendaries doing dumb shit. It's gotten worse in the newer ones for being glorified anime episodes with several legendaries fighting each other.
Although that trend started ever since the first film, it went into overdrive in the second one already. All about catching them without much happening inbetween. It is one of the most boring movies in the franchise. The only thing I like about it is the poster.

The Pokemon anime sucks; everyone who likes it has low standards. There shouldn't even be lots of doubt about it, yet people still like to clinge on how the fighting improved or how people only watch it for the animation, proving they have no idea how writing works, or the real world for that matter. But since a lot of underage boys browse this board, I'm not that surprised.
I am, however, surprised that the first season gets shit on so much by nostalgia-hating people without having any knowledge of any kind about anything.
The first seasons were made by someone else. Since Pokemon was at its earliest stages, the anime was more experimental about it and introduced concepts and episodes that were throughly unique and, because of it, interesting.
Even though there were quite a few flaws (i.e. no real gym battles) and a lot of filler (as always), it's still more interesting than the newer episodes (for the most part) as it isn't just about random fights. It's always been MOTD, but done differently.
Albeit D/P had way better storytelling, for Pokemon standards at least,I consider the first season of Pokemon to be more interesting. But that's just my opinion.
>>
>>27366983
Thematically, fifth one was about Ash's first love... with a pokemon.

I think you're being a bit too dismissive for saying only two movies were character driven. For example, fifth one has a shit plot exactly because it focuses on characters most of the time.

Third one certainly is the standout here even to this day. THat it ended up good is a miracle considering how budget got slashed since the last movie.
>>
I think we can all agree that 4Ever sucked. It honestly felt like a long episode of the anime. And for THAT they fucked the GS Ball plot?

Mind, it's only fair worst season should have worst movie.
>>
>>27367030
>worst movie
Oh anon... You should try the pony movie or the mewtwo movie 2. Or even better, don't. Just trust us. Those are so much worse.
>>
>>27367030
Worst season also had best movie, so be as it may.

>>27367003
Suppose you're right about me being bit too dismissive about it. It just depends on the story anyways.
Of course the fifth one is going to be bad, though, once romance is involved as the show will always remain in a status quo which makes any romantic plot irrrelevant. And, well, the characters are one-dimensional, and I doubt they will ever add any dimension to them. Which makes character-driven storylines hard and, at most, still bad.
Having said that, the villains are mostly the ones who add any story in the first place since the hero never does shit. Their motives vary, or at least can be, and that's why they're more interesting and what I meant when I talk about character-driven storylines.

Nonetheless, yeah, Latias as a human being in love with Ash was never gonna work out in any way possible because it's a Pokemon movie.
Its theme wasn't really approached in any way as well, which is why I pointed out the first's and third's one; both do something that isn't really being done before. Both have themes that could work well without the realms of Pokemon. Both are themes that haven't really been done since as well.

Actually, Pokemon 2000 had a great concept. You don't often see the collection aspect in Pokemon despite it being the most important one besides, obviously, fighting.
That really sucks because they give literally no motivation to the villain, only in the japanese hand-outs he has any which basically means fuck-all.
I don't remember much besides the most important moments (like, two or three), but I do remember that Team Rocket did something heroic for once, although I really don't remember what it was. Or how it mattered.
>>
Entei and Mewtwo movies were good because it connected to the series somehow, and had actual effort and emotion in it, Entei in particular, two did as well and had some character moments like the other two but I didn't care for it as much, Latios was fine, atmosphere wise, but still meh. But the anime is shit anyway, which I can't see why nobody here agrees, the only good Pokémon thing outside of games is the manga, which is god-tier.

>>
>>27366983
>I give credit to the third one for using Unown as a major plot element since most of the movies (if not all) focus on legendaries doing dumb shit.
The story behind that is that Lugia was made specifically for the anime so they'd have something to headline a movie. They weren't willing to make up another new Pokemon for the third movie, so they didn't have much to work with when production began. After a while, they were sent pictures of six new Pokemon and went "these are gonna be in the next game, pick two of them for your movie". They ended up picking Unown and Entei without any context for what their role in the games would be.
>>
I think the inherent problem with Pokemon movies is that they're not Pokemon movies. You could swap out the Pokemon with a generic monster (or fairy/alien/whatever) in most of them and nobody would notice that they were originally Pokemon movies. The core things that people associate with the franchise, like trainers having Pokemon battles with their captured Pokemon, are always absent. I think the first is the only one that really requires the story be set in a world where people carry portable monsters around with them. (although the third did have a trainer battle sequence to pad out the runtime)
>>
>>27368322
It's good because Ash isn't the focus of the movie

>>27368349
Seems interesting, any link for that source? Wonder what other Pokemon they were supposed to eventually pick.

They all suck. It's just nostalgia if you think that at all. You are not a little kid anymore, and if you still think like one, then you're going to be treated like one. Go to your room, you're not allowed anything for 1 week. If you say anything, it multiplies. Do I make myself clear.

>Desitny Deoxys

Trash opinion, faggot.
>>
>>27368505
>Trash opinion
Yours, yes.

It's a movie heavily reliant on character interactions. The plot is really basic and boils down to go to X then Y then Z. And in each of these locations we get a lot of down time where characters interract. The problem with characters is that Ash's company acts normally, like in the series and the special snowflake autist is a boring character. We get to watch 20+ minutes of him struggling with pokemon, as the movie tries to explain to us the nature of his phobia. This is bad because we only needed one of those scenes. All other are basically boring filler that doesn't advance his character, but merely repeats it. Everything is so dry and boring and the action scenes between these, admitedly not outright terrible, just dull character interactions serve nothing but to push the cast to the next location. Why is that bad? Because they leave you with blue balls. Rayquaza is drawn in a few different scales on error, Deoxis just watches everyone until he's told to start shit for the great finale and any explosions or attacks are stopped before they can become exciting. It's not the great finale so they cant' blow their money on action.

Thus we get a character focused movie with boring ass characters and a barebones plot which exists only for explosions, but we only get that in the finale. Yeah, the finale is pretty great. The problem is suffering thru the rest of the movie before it. Except for Munchlax.

Fuck the Diance movie was pretty much a long episode of the anime. The villians were severrly underplayed and it didn't make Diance seem mysteriously elusive and beautiful. If there are books about it being an elusive mythical, how come nobody bats a freakin eye at the thing?

Hell, they have a shopping montage, at the mall, the MALL. i could excuse it if they mention that Diance was long forgotten or an explanation but no. At least that brief relationship between Xerneas and Yvetal was pretty cool to see.

Also they pull a Mewtwo Strikes Back where you think a character is gonna die but they don't, but it doesn't really make you feel anything

Only good about it were the backgrounds. They really looked nice sometimes. And the battle at the beginning before boarding the ferry.

Everything else is trash.

>>27372190

It was boring, and while it's a thing in just about every movie 4ever is the worst when it comes to trying to generate cheap drama by characters "dying".

Don't forget the evil team rocket guy who has invented dark pokeballs that level up all pokemon to level 100 and makes them edgy. And his motherfucking ugly cgi mecha contraption that makes no sense. Plot was terrible.

Charming and fleshed out secondary characters, truly heartwarming connection between May and Manaphy and Ash having agency and saving the whole thing with his own ability except pokemon?

Hoopa movie is terrible. It's the ultimate case of "look at all this nothing!". Half of the movie is just a screen filled up with Legendaries.
>>
>>27372318
The legendary battle last like 10 minutes, anon.
>>
>>27372327
Bullshit. it's 25 minutes of shit flying around the city destroying everything with no people in sight because they'd have to animate them and make a survival plot for the people if anyone were present.
inb4 someone defends movie with one of those two reaction shots from afar

It's not a terrible movie. It's just boring and dull, but legendaries were the worst part of it.
>>
>>27372190
It was a complete Princess Mononoke ripoff.

>>27364862
The Sinnoh trio has like 4 movies to their name now and Ho-Oh doesn't even have one.
>>
>>27372304
Oh please that's been around since the 1st movie.
And no, Mewtwo using telepathy and psychic mumbo jumbo doesn't mean he didn't fucking have a voice actor.

Shill harder, genwunner
>>
>>27372378
Don't put words into my mouth. The old movies voices didn't feel forced and they still use telepathy to communicate. Now it's just to make the mythical Pokemon "cute" without adding much to the narrative, and arguably making the movie worse in the process.
>>
>>27371466
>A long episode of the anime
Yeah, even BW movies felt like movies, however controversial they are. If anything it had nice pacing. It's just that the stakes never seemed really high. Even the whole main plot of Diancie needing to perfect her/its powers to save the underground country seemed shafted for a lackluster Yveltal appearance. This is more easily compared to other movies that have done similar things (featuring multiple legendary pokemon that have nothing to do with one another). I think Shaymin's probably handled such inclusions in the plot the best.
>>
>>27372411
Timecode 00:59:57. Barza freezes Hoopa Unbound in place with the completed bottle, ending the battle.

Every single scene of the possessed legendaries doing anything at all takes place during the 9 minutes between these two shots.

Stop misusing terms you don't know what mean. You literally called the three first people that disgreed with you genwunners, so that's a fact and not something I put in your mouth.

Oh they're bad, but 2000 is either on the same level or worse because of the dialogue and story.
>>
>>27372780
A genwunner is someone who likes gen one and only gen one. They'll trash newer gens relentlessly and say stuff like "Pokemon isn't like what it used to be". If you want to find what these people are like, I recommend trying to find some Pokemon GO players who haven't touched an Nintendo console in years. Every generation has Pokemon with bad designs, you're just as bad as the genwunners if you can't take the smallest amount of criticism.

honestly ive only skimmed through movies past 14, but i think the target demographic shifted even further with them, so you cant look at them with the same way you do the others

one thing we can all agree is that the original is the absolute best movie, due to the actually good story and the fact its not just about legendaries fighting for a bit on an mountain landscape. Also i didnt even watch it until i was 15, 5 years ago so i wouldnt say its nostalgia
>>
>>27372815
No line in that movie comes close to "me and the grass are friends now", nor was the whole story "just a test to teach Keldeo a lesson". How you can put either the dialogue or the story of 2000 below Keldeo is beyond me.

Except for being thematically coherent because there wasn't actually as much emphasis on the legendaries as there should have been in the previous two and instead they focused on the event legends too much.
And the action.

And the fact that it shoved in the Mcguffin kids that could control the legendary Pokemon and shoved them into flashbacks about the previous movies.

That's odd.
Take the Lucario and Manaphy movies, in which Ash uses his AG clothes and pokémon, is traveling with his AG group, have noticeable AG animation opposed to DP animation, and most importantly aired during AG.
And they are gen IV movies just because the main pokémon is from gen IV despite everything else fitting right into AG?

I will always defend Kyurem vs. the Sacred Swordsman: Keldeo.
It wasa very good movie with well written story. The fact they tried to focus more on Pokemon instead of Ash was a good choice, and all battles were very well directed and spectacular.

They stopped doing that because spergs got annoyed at the games being advertised for several years before actually coming out.

None of that is in those lines at all.

You do realise that whole "mew wants to kill the clones for being fakes" is a result of an extremely bad translation right?

Literally in the lines. Let me translate that for you:
>real pokemon are more valuable than fake clones and we will never lose to lesser copies

>>27374394

I never said that. I said Mew was fighting Mewtwo to the death with his reasoning being that Mewtwo is a lesser rather than being a poor guy defending himself like in the dub.

>>27374440
>ancient troll
Except it wasn't. The only ancient meme from the first film is the fighting is wrong, which is true. Besides, I never said what that anon "quoted"
>>
>>27374497
>we will never lose
>you must die
Not exactly the same, anon
>>
>>27374524
>you must die
Who are you quoting?
I never said that. I was talking about Mew and Mewtwo. And I said the battle was to the death, which is obvious in both the sub and the dub for all the pokemon.
>>
>>27374497
>Besides, I never said what that anon "quoted"
Thing is he was using your own logic against you which was judging a movie by the lines used in the dub.

Then you got self defensive as fuck and brought in a line that didn't even happen.
>>
>>27374497
If fighting is wrong then how come nobody is doing anything about it in the anime? In fact, why is literally everyone using them to fight in one form or another?

You said that Mew was trying to kill Mewtwo, which is your assumption, don't present it as fact.
>>
>>27374623
>Mew was trying to kill Mewtwo
It was a battle to the death. The whole point of Ash's sacrifice was to stop everyone before they kill each other.
>>
>>27374612
>He was creating a strawman, probably because he misunderstood me.
If anything you're the one who's at fault of strawmanning because you're singling out dub lines instead of focusing on the entire movie or the context of the line in question.
And then you went on to backpedal when it was used against you.
>>
>>27374652
Mew was trying to defeat Mewtwo, that's all that happened, the battle might have lasted to the death, but there it was never even remotely implied that Mew was set on killing Mewtwo. It was neither directly stated in the original nor the dub, and if you're point is that it is implied from the atmosphere then your whole point about Mew only trying to kill Mewtwo in the original and not in the dub is moot.

You want context?
Dub is a film about a guy who got bullied into becoming evil and wanting to enslave and/or kill all intelligent life that is not him or of his creation. He bullied Mew who defended himself until Mewtwo sees reason. Eventually he was moved by a death of a kid into thinking fighting is wrong.

Sub is a film about a guy who lost everything "human" and got raised into believing into the Ubermensch idea, for which he decided to subjugate and/or kill everyone not of his own creation. He picked shit with Mew who retaliated back with equal ferocity. Eventually, death of a kid reminded him of Ai from his earliest days which laid in direct opposition with Nietzchean ideals he's been taught by Giovanni, leading him to trying a different path.

Your whole point was that if you didn't watch the sub you wouldn't know that Mew was "trying to kill" Mewtwo, but what you're actually saying now is that they wouldn't know that Mew and Mewtwo both put their lives on the line, which is just completely wrong. Anyone seeing the dub would have figured that out.

I like all the movies equally, save for the Victini and Manaphy ones. I had no idea what the fuck was supposed to be happening in said movies, even after reading a thorough synopsis on them. That's not to say I think the movies overall were the best things I've ever seen, though. The first and second ones might seem like the best of the bunch to you because they're the ones you might have the fondest memories of from your childhood. And hey, they're meant to be enjoyed by little kids, so it makes sense. You grew up.

Mewtwo Strikes Back(JP) and Pokemon 3 were the the best movies. Lati@s movie was pretty good as well.
