Twenty years of Pokémon and still no live-action movie, but that may change soon. Hollywood Reporter (via PokéBeach) has an article alleging a bidding war between studios to film the adaptation with Legendary Entertainment being one of the prime candidates.
I would love to see Michael Caine or Kitano Takeshi as Professor Oak, but as far as the others go I don’t have many recommendations. Too bad Daniel Radcliffe is too old to play Ash though.
What do you think? Do you have hope it could be done well or do you think it will end up being like the live-action Dragonball Evolution? If you’ve forgotten that masterpiece you can refresh yourself by watching the trailer below:

How about a movie about the (background) story of N, AZ or Looker…?
I would love a background story about N, about how his childhood was with Ghetsis as a father.
In a movie about AZ they could show us the whole Pokemon war, which sounds very awesome.
Both NOT action-replay, however.
*live action
Thanks 🙂
No problem – we pokejunglers always got each other’s backs
I would like to see all the Pokestar Sudio films
Five bucks if u can guess my favorite one
The one with the giant lady legs.
I owe you five dollars
I just remembered. A live action Yokai Watch movie is also supposedly in the works.
However, when they said a live action Fairly Odd Parents movie was happening, thr hype was real, and it set up for disappointment. Keep that in mind.
Yeah the one with Drake Bell right?
Yeah that one sucked
Yes. All three of them.
Nice. Too bad Yokai sucks.
YOKAI WATCH IS AWESOME OKAY OKAY
No.

Meeeeeh, I would prefer new legends, but f it’s form changes I’d be okay with that because it would mean it is confirmed to be gen 6.5 thus increases the chances of battle frontier
I’d be really mad if they turned out to be stupid ass form changes.
The following have been done: Live Action…
* Attack on Titan?
* Rurouni Kenshin?
* Phoenix Wright?
* Ben 10?
Quality may vary.
The Rurouni Kenshin one was actually really good. I never saw the sequel, but the first was good from my perspective.
Live Action Ben 10?
Oh Nevermind I remember that. I could never get into Ben 10.
Yep, there are at least two Ben 10 live action movies out already. Heh heh heh.
So I got back from seein’ the jungle book
I liked it, then it hit me
The Pokejungle Book
The Wolves: Mightyena
Mowgli: Some random friggin kid
Bagheera: Luxray
Baloo: Snorlax (was gonna cast Urasring but I can easily see Bill Murray’s voice easily flow from a Snorlax)
Shere Khan: Either Pyroar or Arcanine (I know but tiger colors)
Kaa: Serperior/Serviper
King Louie: Slaking
I would love to see somebody Illustrate this
Liepard would fit better as Bagheera.
Well as long as they call riceballs doughnuts, then I’m good. XD
