What The Fox Says Review: Digimon: The Movie!

0:00 [Music] greetings i'm knight and i and when i'm not doing commentaries i'm ripping off doctor wolfie does introverted videos pokemon's been getting some competition in gaming lately tim tim's mentality is a pokemon killer bye that was the satisfied of game freak i've watched human world 2's playthroughs of the next among games and they've been pretty fun and power world is a very intriguing trailer however i remember back in the late 90s when pokemon's competition was metabox and monster ranger we should have both stayed into obscurity over here in the states view here from right here is still going strong and of course the subject of today's review digimon like i said my review two years ago digimon was originally created to be a

0:45 competitor with the tamagotchi in japan and eventually got its own anime series it was originally meant to end after the main rhythm of the demo was defeated but it had gotten so popular by then it just kept going and going we got sequel season called adventure zero two in japan that rolled around the youngest of the original agency destined to be gay and curry and through their schoolmates davis cody and yoli who became the new to suggestion when the digital world became threatened by someone calling himself the digimon emperor made in japan by two-way animation and it was localized by spawn and near.fox kids four kids released a pokemon movie museum strikes back in theaters on november 12th 1999. wanting a piece of that theatrical release pie box is released digimon the movie on october

1:33 6th the following year however pokemon had an actual feature-length film for theaters where has digimon didn't they just three short films that didn't match up to the full run time of a movie the three films were digimon adventure our war game and hurricane landing slash transcended evolution the golden digimentals so how would swan compete with four kids take all three films fluff them and match them all together and try to create a cohesive narrative the tool to do this would be the american ninja justin willis who them wants you to believe had some sort of connection do they originally they do this when really he has none in the original japanese dub and the refusal third film

2:20 where he is the central focus and curry also acts as narrator with the whole thing when originally there was no narration and the famous trust to do these things together for yourself you should know that this isn't the one we became friends with later on [Music] and trust american kids to read the atmosphere of a film gotta hold their hands and spill everything out for them before we get to the actual film let me just go with the poster for this movie until you watched any of the trailers they always showed scene from the second act of the film on the posters on blockchain of the vhs tapes they show off the zero two casts who only appear in the movie instead there's also the obviously where when

3:05 entering the digital world in the tv series spoilers there is no scene in this movie where anyone goes to the digital world well i'm guessing it was just to me to post there was just giving reference sheets is the zero two designs of the characters or something it's also rather confusing that we have the character riemann with his partner davis there but they also have magnamon who's an advanced form of vimon on full display in the poster not that i think you'd know that since i remember this movie coming out before the resolution of the digimon of iraq where madmon debuted so for a lot of kids over here in the states this movie was his first appearance and there's a bit of confusion here this movie was the review of the digimon terriermon who in this

3:52 movie is the partner of willis unfortunately terriermon is not the digimon they're standing alongside willis that would be its counterpart lotmon terrier mine just looks wrong having this is rather evil left him like he's one of the main antagonists of the film for whatever reason he's got a part of that mod like i previously said he is right next to willis like it's his partner digimon or something and it's not that rule belongs to terriermon la man doesn't even appear in the movie so why are there two near identical digimon on the poster and why is one of them look evil did no one bother to look at the poster go back to watch the movie the whole way through

4:37 and tell the artist hey i made a mistake here and have them correct it and that's what it feels like happened lastly we get panels of the original kid on either side of the poster while they do appear in act one of that two here their zero two designs are used but they don't appear in the third act of this movie which is gonna be kind of funny when we get around to talking about that now apparently someone did watch the movie the whole way through because on the box cover for the vhs tapes the pictures of the original six kids have been removed and it's just a zero two cast here honestly i have kevin putting this off because part of me really did a lot of left in this movie after all these years but i know the

5:24 longer i wait the more painful it's going to be when i actually do so let's not waste any more time gotta pull off that band-aid in a few seconds the doors will open for the best movie of all time the digimon movie all right i forgot before the movie actually begins we get an angelic anaconda short fair digital character angelina and her friends go into the movie theater to watch it themselves i forget this problems of natural theaters or just part of the vhs tapes but if it was part of the theatrical release then i really should have brought that to my parents for making themselves through this when they took me to the movie i was never a fan of angela and wakanda was on fox kids more abc family it was

6:10 just something i remember watching to get into the shows i actually liked like donkey kong country walter millen and freaky stories which more cartoon reviewers should do videos on so i can die happy but plow this short is that engine that imagines herself battling her rival in the net memoirs of digimon for taking the seats in front of her and intentionally blocking her view that's the basic law for mostly swords really nanette dizzling the pistons law off angela imagines bad stuff happening to the net the actual show took this fantasy sequence for an episode that renames the movie but then just still imagines herself becoming a giant thai cosplayer alright time for the actual movie

7:01 wow that's amazing it's amazing that i can't decide which i have a hard time seeing through that cringing this is the hoe and poker wrap as uncomfortable as this jealously is for adults i don't think i even liked this when i was a kid it's trying to be hip without being simultaneously lazy by just flinging around did you buy png's across the screen this is the kind of thing you'd expect to see on youtube that's something meant for movie theaters this is one of eight original songs from the dub even though i don't wasn't playing in the actual show so it's almost like even so fun news was too cringe even for them five of which can only be heard on the movie's soundtrack every other time in the movie inserts music it's a

7:46 pre-existing song that kind of doesn't feel what's going on [Music] now i kind of knew the lyrics to the rockefeller skank when i was a kid but that's only because i heard it so often and i can't only assume the only reason they had anything but they said was because they thought it was funny for some reason now i do like one week from the bare naked ladies all my friends are metal heads is an okay song and the impression that i get by the mighty boss stones is fitting for the climax of act 2. well i can't deny i'm still curious

8:32 why the localization team chose these songs those are the songs from the original japanese dub i know it's because that kids would understand japanese but they could have still used instrumental versions of the original japanese anime hell they could have used instrumental versions of the songs they did use if they were available at the time in act 1 we're introduced to a much younger tankari who get a digi that comes out of their computer and hatches into a buttermilk sauce gourmand which eventually evolves into a crayon that protects them from a paired mod attacking their neighborhood this movie is notorious for a majority of cuts so after watching ensema it feels like this film was the one that had the least and most of them were for the sake of time like shortening how long of their

9:17 catches his car mod around and we did lose the scene that the grey mine impaling paired monsters are chewing his horn the scene where grandma pretty much obliterates one of paramount's wings with his no blast i'd call that a fair trade and one more last used to the original narrative but has quite a few 22s thanks to localization that do takes place after the end of the original digimon season a viral digimon named terramon has appeared on the internet and is consuming so much to hear that it causes problems with the real world so after the distance partners management make contact with ty and izzy their vision is descended into my ninth internet and destroying it and unfortunately every other member of the

10:03 original age are all doing their own saying are unavailable mimi's on vacation joe's taking an exam kari's at a birthday party and sorry isn't talking to ty due to a sibling about an argument they had what happened it was stupid i gave her this really great hairpin for her birthday and then she got all mad and said oh you don't like my hairstyle and i said who could tell you're always wearing a hat and then she said so now you don't like my hat huh it's very confusing i mean he isn't wrong when puberty hits you this very much leaves matt and his little brother tk is the only two available to help pioneer the longer the battle goes on garumonda duozone vermont to fight copenhagen and greymon overpowering them because he jumps straight to the ultimate stage rather than be a champion like they originally thought and he eventually

10:50 becomes the mega level diabolomon new overpowers ties wore draymond and match metal garudaman and leaves them for dead in the connection time at heaven is so strong that the pair managed to physically enter the internet and revive their partners in an admittedly well done scene and this causes their partners to merge into omnimod who effortlessly destroys the abort mod in its duplicate army act 2 is possibly the best act out of this movie this spice still having a ton of changes we get the debut of some pretty awesome digimon like the caramel line which is unlike previous animated demons which were either acting on instinct like wild animals were evil simply for the sake of being evil where were would be interdimensional conquerors that came

11:36 online consider the idea of destruction and annihilation hilarious the abort mom causing a nuclear missile to be launched towards the new distance neighborhood simply for the laws i'm just disappointed we didn't get to see chris sullivan which is well i feel made a part of the fight if he got injected with sonic body xc dukes when there's omnimod who is not only a master powerful but is basically also an iconic figure in the digimon franchise the scene where the important needs to be slowed down by incoming emails from kids all over the world is also canon to the anime since we not only see a young lady in the montage but the fight between the aware of one and on is a reference in the anime we also got the sequel movie via roman revenge bad reviews of the

12:22 original the somehow survived i can't lie i did like the sun plot i have ty and story having a fight as a kid and i kind of still like it as an adult due to it being shipping fuel stupid suits that reminds me i need to write that blade and make a letter about ichigo not ending up with rufia what i'm serious since the movie wants to pretend that was is more important than it actually is easy mentioned that was contacted and informed him about the evolved caramel mentioning that despite being a graveschooler he's some sort of child genius and during the fight with the apartment willis messages dizzy again blaming himself for all the trouble that's going on in the original japanese

13:07 dubs these scenes went to two unnamed characters the second being a random kid telling them not to give up the fight these scenes remind me of when four kids commissioned the scenes of the debut of pokemon forever which were just an exposition scene editing out tracy because he was one of the most unpopular characters and a pointless team rocket scene simply meant for padding and now we come to act three the part of this movie that a lot of people familiar with the original film say got the most butchered by liberalization if the transcript from the did you want encyclopedias to be believed i certainly feel like i'm sharing that sentiment you've probably noticed that until now my view has been basic summary rather than recap that's primarily

13:54 because if i did do the recap thing with the prior two acts i think i would just be repeating what other reviewers before me have said i feel like three does deserve the recap treatment because boy is quite a bit different so [Music] whenever a popular anime gets a movie which lenny made fuel always after when you have to figure out where that movie fits in the show's continuity and i have to i mean the dragon ball and pokemon communities have willingly doing themselves insane this i feel takes place either after or during the digimon never already so it's after because i can't wait to see the three new duties that's done

14:40 spending an entire carefree day at the beach while the emperor is still enlarged there's another reason i feel this way but we'll get there our narrator curry tells us new york visiting mimi but mimi never shows up in the third act of the dub anyway in their little film mini being abducted was as far as what sparked the conflict abducted by who this [ __ ] beast called when to go mom pokemon this has to stop oh i'm sorry

15:25 this soccer beast called coco ma yeah this is the champion form taken by a lot mon corrupted by anger and hatred called winigamon mostly based on the creature of the same name not that you knew that unless you collected the minifigures after the movie because the dub insists on calling him by the name of he's in training form the entire time but yeah i said this guy abducted me me why we'll get there later but then wouldn't monetary might have a fight and when this runs off when he sees that tk and sorry you've been watching him due to kari haven't followed the bad feelings she had after some eavesdropping from panama the pattern is going to colorado and call the other three kids for help a few scenes later davis cody and elite meet up with us by chance when they're editing right in the truck and managed

16:12 to befriend him interior mod the kids decide to try and help us reach colorado by a more hitchhiking don't the kids get separated and this is where we get our second encounter with wendy come on who fights against ranger money develops from vmon you are the one who evolves from terriermont not much progress is made really when the commander slips around the evolved digimon and then just disappears after that dream one digit goes into ragerman and regime acts like a horse allowing davis west and everyone to write him and meets up with the other two diseases once reunited the digit doesn't demand to know who when to go on is and why he seems to have a particular interest in willis i created him turns out when this was just a little tight you could see the dude bad hats too digimon give me modern pokemon that's in line with the

16:58 original film uh the dev says let's also create caramon and when diaboromon's body was destroyed by omnimod his corrupted data appeared in the real world another damn pokemon infecting him with the corrupted data and causing dopamine to become when to go on you know i would call bull mess his day linked around the real world as a ghost time for what actually happened in the original film pokemon was never infected by the virus that created the lives aboriginal speeded away to a different dimension the west was still small and when he managed to return he failed to recognize an older willis and went nuts although this might have also been caused by that other dementia this just so happened

17:45 around the time my grandmother befriended tayakari defended them from parrot mod so in a way well this does have a connection with the original eight to descend just not the one this movie would have you believe in his unstable mind and an ability to understand that the humans age and grow up wendy the mind has been seeking the bliss he knew and abducting everyone with a dizzy right he can find and taking them to the dimension he was whisked away to and at several points in the original film he'd been doing this to six seven years old eight to two destiny so yeah the older kids do play a role in this film and part of the conflict is the younger kids have to rescue them from being abducted even

18:30 though they had no reason until this point uh the dub decided just to focus on willis trying to get back to colorado because he's been interpreting wendy delmont saying go back as in go back to the place where he was infected by the virus and sure the huge chunk of the conflict has been cut out just so well she gets to be made special willis knows that the only way to end when i go on suffering is to destroy him but can't bring himself to do it until reassured that he's on a lot of this so now we get the big climactic fights between the digidestined and when to go on before the actual fight can begin however when did your monday night which looks like a cross between a rabbit a bad and slender man so rather than fight a reject from

19:17 the labyrinth they're now fighting a gymnastic camaro during the fight retrieved to run around one of the songs from the dead whenever a fight is happening i like this somewhere as a kid but i've since found the original audio for this scene and i can tell it is far more fitting especially here [Music] lastly if the localization team wanted to dub over the scene they could have chosen the music they used in their series battle is happening rather than

20:03 the song the twos yeah they're winning a battle when in reality no one is even close to being antitumor in this movie in fact anthony divolves again into a corrupted form of terubimon and now being a maker he just one shots of the digimon back under the rookie forms before which everyone can finish everyone off though come out of nowhere and lop off ruby bars arms last time we saw teagankari they were on a train where supposedly everyone else on said train including the conductor had been transported to the same dimension when did amon had taken the older kids too so how did tk and county manage to get here the only explanation i can think of

20:50 is that angela nancy will mom brought some here and then that sort of has issues all beginning to shortly while after about a ninja woman manchester united some devastating injuries to terrified he manages to heal himself and i think he transports everyone to the same alternate dimension he's holding the other kids i say thing because we don't actually see them but what would you what he's doing here and causes everyone to age backwards turning them into children i don't have the strength to beat him the new digimon will have to use the power of the golden digi eggs come on we have the digi valve to our mega form so we can release the golden dingy egg excuse me why how did they know they could do that i brought up in my review of his master's voice that guidelines should be unable

21:37 to do their own anger woman because she gave up her ability to devote her ultimate stage so either whoever wrote that into the continuity of the anime and watched this movie much less that episode i reviewed or they just forgot that when a digimon isn't in the presence of a control spider which prevents them from digivolving they can take on a more powerful form and this isn't just an issue with the depth by the way the original japanese seems to suffer from the same plot hole there is also the fact that neither of these characters would obtain their mega forms until the try movies and the 2020 reboot so why into my would think they can go mega here makes absolutely no sense remember

22:23 what i said earlier about magdalene magnum is an alternate evolution of viman born from the golden digit of miracles and that the jig had been acquired by the digimon emperor and used as a power source that allowed his banks to fly that did the egg of miracles along with every other digi metal that allows the new generation of digital student amount to armor digi balls and been created by its four powerful negative demands when the defenses of their world have begun to weaken and jamon and angel mongolian mega had nothing to do with their creation so why do they think that obtaining their megaphores would be able to summon it and this digit is clearly meant for terrier mob really the only conclusion i can come to is this is a tsx machina

23:11 even though they're makers now i think co2 has never been clear on if magnum eyes are made or just some sort of armor level that you want they still manage to do little damage to ruby bond and in fact get eaten by him inside everyone however they find a manifestation of when to come on new motions for them to destroy him from within after they use their most powerful attacks the pair managed to destroy the corruption from within charity mode however because we might have taken so much damage his body fades away leaving was to believe he's lost to both of his partners until tell your mom and female compare shooting down now hold on to your seats there are two different endings to this movie i know shocker in the dope the kids talk about it even though two months by couldn't survive the battle digimon

23:58 never really die and who does this reunite with winnie come on who's in the smash mouth song in the original film we are simply told that the older kids were free during the dimension when the mom was keeping them in and with us finds pokemon city egg so that was the demand's first movie wow nice man let's sit through when i first decided to do this i still can't say this is good but there are things i still like about it even after all these years the webcast is all right i did enjoy their chemistry between joshua sith and one of his time easily respectively in act 2 and while terrymod is sort of a flat character here moona would give him a bit more personality in tamers we got the debut of some new digimon which i am always in favor of as a digimon fan

24:44 however i still can't overlook what i missed this movie was in order to pretend like there's some sort of connecting thread each tree was like a narrative device rather than a character maybe it's just me but if they [Music] like the original third film seemed to yeah it would probably be a short movie but at least it would have been a better story and one that got out so much of the source material the movie isn't god awful but i really would have to be a kid who doesn't want to think critically yet warfare pair of the stone devices to get any enjoyment out of this i'll say this much though i always like the sense of an hour of saban cheese more than all

25:30 that needless thanks from the try movies this is not that i sing thanks to my thoughts please share yours with me
