Preview M23: Koko

[WatcherMark]

I never realised how much Uu fits Team Rocket, but it does and they need to catch one soon. I can already see it trying to eat Nyarth every time it leaves its Poke Ball.

To be fair, humans are causing a mass extinction in the real world, (certainly not on purpose but we're still causing a lot of damage to the ecosystem). Although I do think the "humans are the true monsters" trope doesn't necessarily make sense in the context of the Pokemon world given that humans there are actually quite noble most of the time and do successfully coexist with Nature (see Forttree city in Hoenn) and the pokedex entries suggest that the titular creatures are necessarily much better than we are

I just hate it when movie directors/writers try to shove a pretentious lesson down our throats.

On a related note if I were Disney I'd be assembling my team of lawyers right about now.

You know they had to fix Sonic in his movie design. The trailer showed a humanist weird Sonic instead of the usual video game him. Those two trailers aren't really complete yet so they may change the designs and animation.

Omg not this again. This isn't going to be a full blown CGI movie no matter how many times you bring up that scenario.

This wouldn't get old at all. Anyway, I suspect that they're trying to make the movie counterparts of Ash, Jessie and James somewhat different except for their staple Pokemon, because otherwise what is the point?

Can you sue for something you didn't even invent?

Can you sue for something you didn't even invent?

Disney might be able to with all that cash, but a quick google suggests Tarzan's in the public domain now.

 

[Daenerys]

I can't say that I know for sure but I was thinking that since it's Disney we're talking about, that they had the name Coco trademarked (do they?).

Disney tried in the past, but they would have no basis this time.

Not in Japan; that movie was called "Remember Me" there.

 

[El Squibbonator]

Even if Team Rocket does have a Cramorant in this movie, that doesn't mean they will in the main anime. Remember, this movie follows the timeline that began with I Choose You, so it's not canon to the main series.

Man, Coco's got some ridiculous arm strength; considering Flygon weighs 82kg, that's probably kind of like swinging into a wall for a kid that size

Sorry I’m kind of lost here. Going off this and your other posts are you...really suggesting this film could still be done in a 3D style similar to MSBE? Because there’s zero chance of that happening.

M05 should have colored Jessie’s hair magenta.

Nothing more wrong has ever been said in the history of this entire website

Well, Ash lifted Larvitar, Hippowdown's Pre evolution and Cosmoem, the densest Pokemon we’ve ever got. Flygon's levitate might've helped too.

 

[RC821]

Coco is basically the movie's answer to Sapphire from Pokemon Adventures with major differences.

Flygon knows levitate, Coco has the momentum as well, which also helps.

Yes, but suing someone for using a plot that is older than their own movies would be pushing it. It could have been justified if the characters ressembled theirs (like what brought a rename and design changes to two YGO cards), but otherwise it would be stupid on their part.

Besides, I meant M06. You might disagree but please! Can anyone be on my side?

You say that, but this is the same Disney that sent legal threats which ended Kimba's planned North American release in the 90's because they claimed that Kimba was a rip off of their Lion King.

Truly, Disney knows no shame.

That actually happened? What the fuck? On the plus side, I don't think they would be able to pull something like this now without facing major backlash since those same things are easier to spot now.

 

[SammyW27]

All I want to know is what's causing those explosions.
They better be the work of a kick-ass villain...

Though let's take it with a grain of salt.
Most of us know how things can go with these trailers and the final product...

Seriously? And I thought the company had reached the rock bottom when Walt Disney himself once called his protesting employees... erm... "unapprovable people", let's put it that way.
