Yokai Watch 3 will be released in Japan on July 16. There will be two versions of the 3DS title: Yokai Watch 3 Sushi and Yokai Watch 3 Tempura.

Whomever’s hands it ends up in, I hope it looks as good as the “Train On” commercials.

I mean... it ‘Sorta’ happened? There was a live action musical thing years back?

I’m not, just because it’s kind of hard to visualize how it should look. If you do the ‘Mons too realistic, they risk not really looking like themselves anymore (and also hitting the Uncanny Valley pretty hard). Do them too cartoony, and it will look weird next to the live-action actors.

They are extremely careful with Pokemon. Being the second most profitable video game franchise ever after Mario, they don’t want to do something incredibly stupid.

I think the only way this movie would work for me if its done with animatronics (with CGI assistance) and has a Goonies/Stand By Me/ET kind of vibe. Give us a world that feels tangible and that the audience can get lost in. What will make this movie work best is to bring old fashioned Hollywood magic to it.

Actually, they would be a good pick. Why? The Speed Racer movie. Easily the best western live action anime/manga adaption.

I hope Warner Bros. gets it ...

President and Vice President Barbie look familiar....

YIKES that story was a hundred times sadder than I ever could have imagined

Just gonna leave this here.

This is not Snoopy. Do not assume all cartoon dogs engage in the same crimes.

Without Snoopy, we wouldn’t have those kickass flying games.

How the fuck are you going to shit on Peanuts, of all things?

Brutaler.

Damien White. He has no idea what is going on.
