Pokemon live action movie?

The guy playing Ash almost looks like Seth Green. =P

That's obviously fake, and I'll doubt we'll ever see a live action Pokemon movie... ever. I don't think I need to go into too many reasons why it would totally suck, other than the obvious facts that you can take from how show business works. It's not the kind of thing that big-time actors are going to agree to do (unless their desperate for money), and the directors would probably instead compensate with either washed-up stars of the 80's (I'm thinking Molly Ringwald as Misty, perhaps, since they both have red hair), or actors that nobody has ever heard of. I could just imagine the effects being pretty terrible as well. B-movie quality more than likely, and having multiple Razzie winner written all over it.

Don't get me wrong; I'd probably watch a live-action Pokemon movie, just for the heck of it, even if it was good or bad. The lulz that could ensue from such a potentially bad movie alone would be worth the price of a ticket.

Obviously FAKE lolz...
it would just ruin pokemon like dragonball evolution ruined the gd name of dragonball.
 
I think a live action movie would be badly done if in the same format as the games and show.

Though, I had something in mind :P

Like if instead of some kid trying to catch them all, what if..and I mean IF the pokemon were like strange creatures that appeared out of nowhere and people feared them and tried to avoid them, like if this was the very beginning when arceus created pokemon (not really familiar with Arceus so if he didn't make them, sorry) and they started appearing everywhere, and everyone panicked and tried to somehow get rid of them, and I had a scene in particular where a few explorers were traveling through forests and they get snagged by bluish purple vines, and they find its a bunch of tangela with bright orange-red eyes that screech and try to feed them to a tangrowth, and the explorers try to escape it. You know...like a PG-13 Jurrasic Park movie where Garchomps are like Raptors.

Yeah I had strange dream last night....sue me.

Yeah, if there was a live action movie I would expect it to be something like this. Kinda like how the Transformers movie was not exactly like Transformers...at least I think so.
 
People shouldn't even joke about things like this. A Pokemon Live Action would almost be as bad a making a Dragon Ball Live Action. Oh wait...
 
Pokemon: The Movie. Rated PG-13 for strong language, moderated violence, sexual situations and drug use. Now you got a real Pokemon movie.
 
it's easy to see it's fake like the fact it's about pokemon and there's a giant robot but no team rocket and the infernape toy is taller than the torterra toy it's fake and the fact it's just starring ash but it would be cool if it's real
 
I really wanna see a real Pokemon movie, that'd be sweet.
 
No, hell no, I'm not watching this even if it was real. Anime -> Live action = fail. You can't capture the people of the anime with live-action. Just like they fudged up DBE. O.o That thing looks horrible.

Although I guess Transformers wasn't THAT bad...
 
Simply fake, but oh gosh if they had to choose a guy to play as Ash, I only hope they choose someone else xD

They could hire the kid that did Home Alone 1&2. But then again, he may be too old at this point...

Well, if there was a live action Pokemon movie, who would be Ash's actor? :\....
