oh god no. please no just please.

If this is happening its most likely going to be awful. Both video game and anime live action movies have a history of being crap, and I really see no reason why this would be different, especially with a western studio.

EDIT: rephrased some stuff.

I can only imagine this will be horrible. As others have stated before me, the people who create these movies aren't actual fans of the source material and don't do it justice. Even with a studio with a great track record behind it doesn't mean they will present this type of project well. History is extremely biased against them, although that being said, I am rooting for them to pull it off at least. If it can be done, it would be awesome to have a good live action Pokémon movie. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, as they say...

I want this movie to be EXACTLY a live action version of any of the existing Pokémon movies. But directed by J.J Abrams, and starring Danny DeVito, Adam Sandler, and Tommy Wiseu. (As Pikachu, Ash, and Brock respectively).

Realistically, I want this to be a good movie. Pokémon is awesome. But has always had this negative light shown on it by the media. I would really like that to change. Although I know for a fact that this will be directed by a hack who doesn't know or like Pokémon, and the writers will shove in unwanted political messages, unfunny jokes, and make it more of a "guy meets girl romantic comedy that just so happens to have Pokémon" movie.

Really? Again? : Sorry I didn't reply, too busy with stuff, but yeah I understand you! Even if deep-down the movie is bad it still has something that makes it shine through for some people, you and myself included.

I dunno how I would feel about a live action pokemon to be honest. It could be cool as long as everything is done right. As in have the right people play and look as the characters. And not just get random people who wouldn't do the job properly. That's the thing nowadays most live action they come out rubbish. Now lets take one for an example and at best. The best one was Lindsey Stirling and her music video. Most people know it was great well for me it was that is. Anyways yeah I can only wait and see what will happen. I don't want to judge yet until it comes out. '-'

The bidding for the rights were supposed to have ended a really long time, ago, so who knows what's going on with production. it's been like 2 months now and normally a bud such as this should take like 2 weeks at the most, so maybe there's some sort of a delay or some problem with production, so who knows.

Eh. If anyone can make a good live action video game movie, it's nintendo.

Yes, adaptation movies here have been terrible (Avatar The Last Airbender, Dragon Ball Evolution, etc...)

However! Japan does have a history of making pretty alright adaptation movies. (Attack on Titan, Death Note, speed racer to say a few)

So I have a feeling it's probably going to be pretty decent if we actually get an adaptation. At the very least, real life Pokemon looks awesome.

Maguc : Eh. The production teams that are bidding for the rights do have some very impressive track records with movies, so it wouldn't be too bad with them.

Mmmm, no I don't really want to see it. A bunch of other live-action movies for video game / anime series failed miserably (DRAGON BALL EVOLUTION).

Of course, I'd love to be proved wrong and it actually turns out to be good. Assuming they actually do it, anyways.

Yep. It's confirmed. Live action Pokemon movie is going to happen. Except it's Detective Pikachu. USA doesn't even have the game so I don't see what the point is. Kind of makes me angry that only Japan got the game in the first place, and now they decide to release a movie based off of that game. How dumb. If there's no Danny Devito than I'm done.

I don't like the idea of this. Live action adaptations of cartoons pretty much never seem to work out. Typically because they're directed by people who don't know their source material Just look at an infamous example like Avatar The Last Airbender or Dragon Ball Evolution. I really don't have much of a want for it either or see the appeal in it. Pokemon doesn't feel like it should be live action. It seems like this may very well become another example to be added alongside the others and just has the risk of being very cringe-worthy in general.

Not at all interested in a live action pokemon movie, but I've also read about a live action Mega Man movie in the works. I'd rather see that. Then there's the Castlevania live action which will supposedly be in theaters between now and 2020.

I can't say I'm very interested over a live action Pokemon movie.

I love Pokemon, but I cannot see this going well. Just because of the image of some of the pokemon coming to life.

Like Trubbish. Or Grimer. Or the creepier kind...

It's either going to look nice or suck in my opinion; we'll all see in due time though.

zanderlex : OH MY GOSH! That is great news! I really hope these two really are working together on this. If they really are, then I can expect some fast paced giggles, and some actually clever writing. It would definitely be a step up from the anime. But honestly I wouldn't watch anything else if Hirsh was writing the show.

I can only see it being butchered and I do not even like Pokemon. Most of the time,when a video game goes to live action movie,it is going to suck. The only exception I can think of was the first Mortal Kombat movie. I am only assuming this is due to Pokemon GO.

Oldschool777 : Nah, it can't be because of Pokemon go, heck just the thread alone was made long before Pokemon go came out, let alone talk of the movie. Plus bringing on such writers should make the movie awesome.
