It's the 25th anniversary of Digimon the Movie, and I'm still super excited I was able to team up with with @arteicetb.bsky.social to interview @marissalenti.com for their work on the recent re-dubs for Discotek's "Digimon the Movies" blu ray!

On this day, October 6, 2000, 25 years ago, the Digivolution was up and running when 20th Century Fox and Fox Kids released Digimon: Digital Monsters - The Movie into theaters. Prodigious, baby! ๐ป ๐

"you can be whoever you want, big guy."

And this causes the movie as a whole to suffer. Bottom line, if you want all 3 movies, watch all 3 movies in a row. Only watch #DigimonTheMovie if you think you can handle it. First two segments are great, the last one is BARLEY watchable.
I get why Saban put all 3 movies together, all 3 are too short to release alone, but that still doesn't change it was a stupid idea, especially the way they altered Hurricane Touchdown. #DigimonTheMovie
Alone, it was already the weakest segment from never shutting up to bad editing, but knowing now what got taken out and what changed in the plot? It's BARLEY watchable. Most of the drama's gone, the jokes aren't funny, the ending was bad. #DigimonTheMovie
So...ok, look, even if I didn't see all three movies before re-watching #DigimonTheMovie, my opinion would still stand as the first two segments are way better than the third, especially since I knew going in when I was younger it was 3 movies cobbled together already.
And we close out on the only thing from this thing that's held up better than the movie itself: Len's Kids in America. #DigimonTheMovie
Willis calls home, Kokomon comes back...but because Saban gotta Saban, he comes back as the giant thing that was the result of the virus, while singing...
C'mon folks, this is a 90's movie soundtrack, y'all know it by now...

#DigimonTheMovie
"One thing you have to learn about Digimon is they never really die..." ...Matt never got around to telling Davis what happened, huh? #DigimonTheMovie
Ok, so, they go in him to destroy the virus from within, like touchdown...except Saban has hit the "Let's wrap this up" button, so the whole drama of the Digimon forgetting everybody? Gone. #DigimonTheMovie
"We have to Digivolve into our---" Oh God, this is even dumber than it was in Touchdown... #DigimonTheMovie
Like, ok, so, in Hurricane Touchdown, the possessed Digimon is turning back the clock and making everybody kids again because that's how he recognizes Willis.
There is NO REASON for this version of that monster to do that in this dub. #DigimonTheMovie
(Head bangs go "Run-Around") I don't care, this is an awesome song, bite me! #DigimonTheMovie
"Get over it."
"Ok." Stupid anime, BE MORE FUNNY! #DigimonTheMovie
The canon from Touchdown still happened, Willis gets twin Digimon and such...BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT two wasn't enough, so he wanted to make one more...which got hit with the virus. When it got destroyed, the virus was a sore loser and YOINKED Kokomon. #DigimonTheMovie
So, Willis spills the beans...and we get how this movie Frankensteined 3 films into one... here we go. Remember that clock in the last segment? Well, unlike War Game, it wasn't a countdown for the bomb, it was symbolism. WILLIS made the Digimon in question. #DigimonTheMovie
"He's got pants now!" I'm actually not shocked the American Digidestined isn't questioning his friend having gun hands. #DigimonTheMovie
Oh God, these rewrites...Willis calls to order a pizza so the driver can pick them up and get an extra tip while in Touchdown, this was the call he made to his mom just to get around the whole "Kids hitchhiking" thing. #DigimonTheMovie
"Wow, in America, they have Digimon by the---" ...YOU ENCOUNTERED MIMI'S FRIEND WHILE BATTLING THE DIGIMON EMPEROR! #DigimonTheMovie
"No, no more uncles, no more---" Noise...
"At least my way..." Noise...
"Yes, ma'am, I'm starting my own truck stop---" If there's one thing I hate, it's all the noise, noise, NOISE! #DigimonTheMovie
Ok, so, the people Kokomon took in Hurricane? Not mentioned, implied that TK and Kari are the ONLY ONES ON AN AMTRAK TRAIN FROM NEW YORK. How the kids get to America? Yolei has lots and lots of "Uncles" like how Sora had her "Cousin." #DigimonTheMovie
"We don't have the money." Well, you did somehow in Hurricane To---
"Willis, why do---" *CRACK* OW! OW! JUMP EDIT CAUSED WHIPLASH, OW! #DigimonTheMovie
Kari still senses Kokomon going after Willis and he keeps saying "Go back!" If you're asking what sense does this make without the whole "Taking the original kids and de-aging them" thing, you've been paying attention. #DigimonTheMovie
