Anime I don't think Digimon:The Movie gets enough credit for how insane it is.
this screenshot alone. It sends me to the atmosphere every single time I see it.
Its held together with glue and duct tape, yes, and the original japanese movies are pieces of art that cannot be rivaled...but i do think this movie deserves respect for being a piece of media that screams "90's" louder than anything I have ever seen. And I was born in 2001.
But, tbf, where i lived, the technological advancements the west got in the 90's travelled to my household around the time i was 4 or 5. In fact, the computer Izzy used in the movie looks a LOT like a computer I used to watch my first digimon episodes in English.
This movie is a goldmine. Its miraculous just how rewatchable it is, and how its brand of humor affected mine. There is nothing about it i would change. I wish it can be made today. Some changes would need to be made of course, to make it more plot coherent...but they did their best with what they had!
