Digimon Live-Action Movie

[TheDreamMaster]

Wasn't mega before ultimate?
I like you summaries for the movies but not them having multi partners and Izzy could just have Tentamon.
film 1: Devimon arc like your idea and a simple mention that Devimon was created by a greater evil.
film 2: Network attack by Diaboromon, the kids are able to destroy diaboromon but they go to the digi world to stop Piedmon who was using Diaboromon and skull greymon accidentally opens the gates for them to enter the real world. Gatomon appears too a lot of times but while she seems to be loyal to Piedmon's master (Myotismon) she seems to be sad over an inocent digimon piedmon kills in cold blood. Myotismon doesn't appear himself but his coffin appears as Piedmon works for him. Right in the end of the movie in the real world greymon is able to evolve into metal greymon and kills piedmon.
film 3: The search for the 6th digidestined, pratically everything you pointed out. The kids discover Myotismon. In the end Venomyotismon is killed

Naw, for some reason Ultimate was second (or third including the baby form) evolution, while Mega was the last form. It was Baby, Rookie, Champion, ltimate, Mega. Or in Season 2, Baby, Rookie, Armor/Champion (though Champion ended up being considered Stronger),Ultimate/DNA(with DNA cpnsidered stronger, Mega. I don't know what the combined evolution from the movie would be.
I really like your ideas. My main reason for having Tentomon come in the second film comes for two reasons: One, because killing Palmon and Gommamon would give some emotional weight as they would have had time to grow on the audience in the first film. Secondly, since Tentomon's basic form looks kind of techno-hybrid and all, I think it would really showcase Izzy as a character to be so computer smart that he can bring a digital being to life within the digital world. I do agree about Gatomon, that she should be established in the second film, she just was not on my mind when writing the description. I guess it is because he ends up as the huge villian of Season 2 as well, but I don't know what I love so much about Myotismon being the main villian. The Dark Masters had their moments, but I like them as minions. I mean hell, for being the strongest most of them went down really easily. Puppetmon took the longest of all of them for really no reason at all. I know you weren't big on the 3-part idea, but I actually had an idea for Movie 4.

Movie 4: Based on Season 2 with the older kids and a team of 3 new Digidestined. Although I love his character, I'd completely cut out Ken and the Emperor, though if this series was able to last that long he would be good for a movie 5. The idea would be that the digi-world has unmerged from the real world, and things have generally returned to normal. Because of the breif merge, time in the digital world has slowed to match human time, as well as making many humans aware that something else exists beyond our world. I would use Oikawa as a sort of villian, but I would change him to someone who is programming evil Digimon into the world to challenge the kids. I think I'd bypass the armor digivolving since Ken's story is bypassed as well. In secret this is just a ploy to distract the kids from his true intentions: programming faulty digimon as fuel for a greater evil. These digimon cannot digivolve properly and die, feeding their hate and anger into the great evil of Season 1, Apocalymon. Not sure if I would keep Oikawa as a vessel for Myotismon's essence, or if he would just be under the influence of Apocalymon. I'd introduce Omnimon for the older kids, but he could only be achieved by the power of the younger kids and their new digivices. We'd get at least to the Ultimate forms for the new kids, and they'd come into their own through other movies, if more occured after this one, and then I'd bring in Ken, armor digivolving, etc.

I thought a live action Digimon movie is coming, not being a fact is a relief

About film 4 i'm not shure, Myotismon was one of my favourites because he was a cool villain and i think he was the villain that lasted longer, also, venomyotismon in the city would make one hell of a final battle don't you think. What about film 4- Ken the emperor. film 5-Arukenimon and Mumymon with Yukio Oikawa as their master and the one that planed everything. film 6 and 7 could work as a single movie, but if they decided the story was too much for a single movie they could make a 6th and 7th shot back-to-back. These would have the kids learning myotismon was still alive as venomyotismon and traveling the world in search of other digidestined, the old digidestined discover that they must fight alone the ultimate evil apocalymon while the new digidestined together with others from around the world stop venomon ( a way to end both storiest

If you were to make a 2nd trilogy and follow the story of the 2nd season at all I think it would fail after one movie. The 2nd season was just bad!

Ken as the Emperor was a good idea. He didn't know these digimon were real animals he sort of thought it was playing a big game where he was just being the bad guy. But it dragged and was really boring and Ken was a winey little *****.

Arukenimon and Mumymon were dumb ideas and were so dumb I gave up on Digimon as a kid till I saw season 3. BlackWarGreymon (Was he black or grey damn it!) was awesome untill he does nothing and is actually just a big emo WarGreymon.

If a movie franchise was going well and they wanted more movies after a season 1 trilogy I'd call for an original concept. By all means have Davis, The Valcan Child and the Tolkin chick but do something good with the characters. Also the idea of Armor Digivolving was great for explaining why new kids were needed at all.

Not bad, not bad. Maybe I would do the Emporer story as 4, and then do the story listed above as film 5 or 6, possibly do Malomyotismon for 5 and Apocalymon for 6. I loved Digimon so much as a kid, I'd love to see something like this happen.

I’ve been thinking about this. I think I have worked it out. It still needs a little work but here we go.

Movie 1.
Heavily influenced from Digimon Adventure but with fewer characters.

Takato, Henry and Rika are on summer vacation with Kazu, Kenta, TK and Kari. (Kazu, Kenta, TK and Kari are named introduced but are not main characters a bit like the back round kids in Harry Potter.) Takato should be seen to be drawing Guilmon before being asked to join Henry to go out and look for the social outcast Rika. The three main characters (Takato, Henry and Rika) are sucked up and taken to the Digital World where they meet their Digimon partners. The Digimon explain about Black Gears. The gang go off and fight Ogremon, Leomon (being controlled by the gears) and finally Devimon.

Digimon reach champion level

Movie 2.
Influenced by a mix of Digimon Adventure 02 and Digimon Data Squad (hear me out on this one) with a sprinkle of Digimon Adventure thrown in.

Takato, Henry and Rika are bonding and fighting Digimon falling through to our world. Meanwhile TK and Kari’s Digivices show up but no Digimon for now.

Using some of Ken’s Storyline from Digimon Adventure 02 I’d two or three Bio-Hybrids taken from Data Squad gain their powers and go up against Takato, Henry and Rika. The Bio-Hybrid characters from Data Squad are really annoyingly bad and would need rewrites but they could be bringing the Digimon to our world and controlling them with Dark Spirals. I really like the Bio-Hybrids idea, especially in Data Squad coz it takes the Digimon Frontier idea and says, what if they were bad? It also helps lead into the next movie.

Once the Bio-Hybrids are defeated the good guys should absorb the Digimon’s data but leave the humans behind.

Digimon reach ultimate level

Movie 3.
Heavily influenced from Digimon Tamers with some additions and rewrites.

D-Reaper… in the cartoons the D-Reaper feeds off Jeri coz Leomon died. In my movie idea it should feed off Kari because she believes her Digivice is a dud. During the movie Patamon and Gatomon finally show up allowing TK to join the team and save Kari. Angemon and Angewomon kick some major ass and Takato, Henry and Rika bio-merge with their Digimon to reach the mega level.

They could either leave it open with the kids with their Digimon or follow the way of the shows and make the Digimon have to go home to seal the tear between worlds. I think I’d like it more if they took the Digimon off the kids.

Digimon reach mega level

I think that they shouldn't change season 1 characters for the ones of season 3, i think both seasons have different and yet interesting arcs, if you wanted to make a cheap movie with an interesting premiese and a super 8 feel season 3 could work very well.

With a movie based on Season 3 you could put more focus on the main characters and the interaction between them and their digimon, using some other digimon here and there but not an exact villain, which actually is a good thing and gives you that option for a sequel.

A movie based on the season 1 arcs should have Agumon and all the other generation 1 digimon, it could be great but it would need to have a bigger budget.

Here's an idea, they could base the 1st movie around season 3's first arc with the 3 digidestined discovering that they should stay together and learning about the digi world and its origins.

If there's a sequel it would be set in the digiworld, i think for season 3 two movies ould work well, i didn't see the newest the newest seasons since i lost my interest during season 4, i'll check it out one day.

 

[Kahoot]

But you forget, you want to make a movie of a show that the fans have already seen. This is the flaw of a lot of Video Game movies. Fans find it boring because it isn't new and non fans hear how bad it is so don't see it. Rather than focus on one season and ignoring the others completely I'm trying to take different elements from the whole show.

I even tried to include a clever trilogy arc for TK and Kari. They start off as fan service. At the end of the 2nd movie when they get their digivices fans will get excited to see their digimon and non fans of the show would be like, "WTF?" Then in the 3rd movie they get the pay off and we see Angemon and Angewomon being the cool angel team kicking ass that could end up a really iconic set piece.

 

[Lord]

With season 3 arc 1 there's a lot of good twists that could be used.
Making the first movie simple but interesting would help it, instead of going after a villain it's just about the kids and their digimon with impmon causing some trouble and the kids finding that the Digiworld was created because of Quantum military technology and that some wild digimon are being released accidentally, with the kids having to let their digimon go in the end

 

[Kahoot]

*Double post see below*

Making a movie with no villian would be quite a challange to keep it interesting. It would just end up as one of those slow talkie arty movies with a few monsters thrown in.

That doesn't mean it couldn't have the government interested in what's going ont:
And the digimon would fight other digimon that got out of digi world and were causing trouble

 

[Kahoot]

But my idea was a movie based on a s1 arc then a sequal based on a s2 arc (sort of) and then a threequal based on a s3 arc. The government thing could be a backround 2nd story is movies 2 and 3.

 

[Lord]

I think that if you're going to make a movie based on the 1st season arc you should use Agumon and the others

 

[Kahoot]

We've been through this before thought. 7 characers and 7 digimon plus back round characters/digimon and villians is too much for a movie. Sure I'm using TK and Kari when I said I wouldn't want to cut out characers and I'm clearly cutting out everyone else but the Angels are a cool iconic team that would look really badass in the final climaz battle of the 3rd movie.

Your problem is you want to watch Season 1 (or any season really) again. I'm trying to take elements of season 1, 2, 3 & 5, make them fresh and new for the audience.

 

[Lord]

I sincerelly don't think the 3rd season characters could work with the 1st season's storyline, i think that maybe the 5th season's characters would work better.
Also, unless it was made by Disney i doubt there would be invested much money in the first movie, it would be safer to start with a Digimon in real world movie

 

[DarkSovereignty]

yeah i say follow the format of the third and fifth seasons for a first movie, then for a sequel follow the first season.

 

[Lord]

It depends if you want the sequel to have a totally different cast.
The story of the 3rd season would be safer for a first movie since you can explore the human emotion and not spend as much money as you would with a movie completelly set in the digital world.
Do what Super 8 did, promise explosions and deliver emotion

 

[ninjaturtlemike]

I'd say a bit of the Tamers route explaining how the Digimon were created and such. The sequel with the whole Myotismon and Kari arc, but a few references from Adventure 01 & 02.

 

[smallville fan]

As I've said in my 90's thread, you need Avatar level budgets to pull this off along with Pokemon.

 

[ninjaturtlemike]

That could work.

 

[ninjaturtlemike]

How about a different character but is influenced by Tai from the Digimon manga V-Tamer and Takato from Digimon Tamers? Instead of Agumon he gets Veedramon in which he draws a picture of from his video game, Digital Monster.
