Retrospective Reviews: Digimon Movie (2000)

0:00 hello this is Bronwyn I'm here to announce the exciting new molly-o media store on the website Marlee Oh Mediacom where you could pick up some awesome branded merchandise including t-shirts and more to come as well as some Kindle books I've published and if you like the content of this video and channel be sure to subscribe and follow me on Twitter and Facebook [Music] I take everything I take it back every single thing I said about the the Digimon Adventure anime I take back I can't believe what I was criticizing the

0:46 attacking was really nitpicking and then that but that was before I actually learned about that movie it's basically it's just a big [ __ ] of three of her movies just shoehorned into one pant seeing a movie this incoherent since Tom Cruise rebooted The Mummy last year did the paces just like whoa thanks I'd see you here Mario nama we meet again last time I finished you your stuff and apartment down in Texas were where I was about to flood and be run over by

1:32 tornadoes I'll ology get back to my new one I just hacked into your channels analytics that's why the readership has gone up again has spiked in the past five years Rick did you want adventure sucker okay here we go there has been more of digimon since the end of the second season including an OVA called digimon try which takes place three years after the second season where all the characters are in high school and it's not really that bad to begin with compared to a key before it's gone idea why don't we have a character named cigarette Mon or how about a character

2:19 named football field lon or how about if you have even more creative kind of character names that annoying British guy who seems to be an everything thing but they never really tell you what his name lawn but the other half passed later ceases do not compare to the ditch Aban movie people have been begging me to review this saying hey how dare you tech did you mind if you're gonna attack something that's did your mom related attack the movie the first part retells the prologue of the first season but not until we get a very shitty Angela anaconda segment to start out with the

3:08 book would think this is a good idea to show this abomination as part of your dawn Oppel movie [Music] and yes this is really what happens we get this city into an anaconda rendition of the Digimon anime got a Dicky rap come on first you start off with one of the characters khari narrating so rapidly that you can't even understand what the hell's going on now if you're just

3:58 getting into the Serie into the anime you're probably confused on what the hell's going on this is because though this whole movie is three different ovh with completely different stories put into one package and that the Frankenstein steins monster you come out with is complete garbage imagine if I try to condense the entire story of my graphic novel series gaius solace into a single 10 page book just put mine this is a complex story involving time travel so you can imagine how it would turn out and that's why it split up into several books I just don't want to wind up with the terrible pacing like this because

4:45 this is that's really just a back story from the original anime why not just create its run up skip the movie its own original plot that's not canon from the TV show the first part retells the prologue of the first season which if you haven't seen my review of the TV series is the fight between a giant parrot and a dinosaur but what they show here is a teleportation of a digi-egg into the real world from a computer and Cory just has a whistle in her mouth for some odd reason this Digimon that we see is what would eventually belong to ty later on however we see him dizzy ball pretty rapidly in one night despite

5:31 never fighting and just being overfed constantly while some late 90s pop music over placed in the background for no reason [Music] because zeitgeist didn't eat this parts all over again and already Aquaman is much bigger than his TV counterpart and sounds pretty different [Music] there is some more to cream on if you ask me which he eventually did devolves into as soon as he encounters parrot mod so it's a double dinosaur faceoff in the

6:19 middle of town since the this parrot is technically a dinosaur as well but all that destruction is somehow only seen by six other children now we skip four years later shortly after the first season finale this part is clearly made up by having ty and Izzy staring after the computer screens non-stop in order to prevent a nuclear war what am I supposed to call for pizza it took a pleat bored watch and this is pretty much a shittier version of the y2k computer glitch this entire segment of the movie is just made up of people just staring in front of their computer

7:07 screens doing nothing I mean watch a movie were people just stay around during everyday crap help the Star Wars Holiday Special was Barrett showing this stuff with people just sitting on their asses doing everyday [ __ ] they talked to their Digimon via the digital world through their computer which he never really got to see that in the TV show just something they pulled the creators pulled out of their asses and they are submitting their Digimon to take care of this virus in the digital world that's causing all the computers to go apeshit and this fight is a complete bore to watch I mean there's nothing exciting going on at all it's just a goo Mon and a couple other Digimon fighting some

7:53 mutant in a pool in a white background while these two kids just stare at their computer screen from time to time and then Matt jumps in with Gabumon and his brother TK okay okay happiness I'm moderation okay and then we fast-forward three years later where we catch up with the cast of Digimon 0-2 except now we finally get to see board this Willis kid that car he wouldn't shut the hell up about and what's his problem you may ask well what if his Digimon named Coco is running amok and

8:40 he can't seem to get him under control a kid was able to purchase plane tickets to an overseas flight and somehow Peola find this random kid that we didn't even see throughout the entire movie so Davis and the other kids are somehow able to book a flight to North America and take a trade all the way to Colorado and judging by how big the u.s. is that would be a two-day trip yeah so after they fight all this boring [ __ ] they finally are able to subdue Pokemon and

9:29 actually decide to kill him but no wait so it goes back there's a digi-egg [Music] sometimes they come back singing a different tune singing [ __ ] Smash Mouth what the [ __ ] oh no no how often you have to [ __ ] panelists deuce brevis just missed the cup dismiss the concept of death [ __ ] you [ __ ] you the tire iron I'm just so happy that I

10:15 wanted to review this [ __ ] anymore okay good it's finally over but have far bigger fish to fry now [Music] [Applause] Wert okay and that's the last of this review this is Rama signing off
