Now since I didn't see this on here yet I thought I post it.


From The ShuGunGamer.com Website...

Late last night we received an email via our site contact form including a link to a SendSpace.com account containing a password protected zip file. The password we were provided was "gottacatchemall" and the zip file was named "pokemon_live_action_screener.zip".

At this point we assumed I was about to download a Trojan virus, or something ridiculously awesome. Fortunately it wasn't a Trojan. We'll let you decide what you make of it.

The email we recieved read: [NOTE - We published the senders email because it doesn't seem to work and we assume it's fake or closed]

I've been lurking this site for a while and I wanted to see if you were interested in posting this video I captured tonight. Today after work my friend and I were invited to view a "secret movie trailer screening." We were not told what it would be, but when I got there 30 other people and myself were shown a trailer for a Pokemon live action movie. It was super sketchy but I decided to record the last 30 seconds or so of the trailer which was about 3 min long. The clip is in a zip file and the password is "gottacatchemall." I can't give you much more detail then this. I wasn't supposed to film this, but holy shit it was awesome. I'll be in touch with you guys when I can talk more about it.

We attempted to contact the user, but the email provided was obviously fake. Our emails just bounce back and Google searches turned up nothing.

From what we can see, this trailer is pretty well done. I'm sure hard core Poke-nuts will get their panties in a knot over a live adaption. But, I never liked the cartoon. I might go check this out. Let us know what you think.

We have no idea who is behind it, if it's studio funded or just a pitch like the recent Mortal Kombat reboot. There's not really much else we can say, simply because we don't know yet. We'll keep you posted if we are contacted again.

So with that being said, here's a world exclusive look at a mysterious Pokemon live action movie trailer.




Okay so first....It looks fake as hell, but until proven otherwise it is considered leaked.

What do you guys think?

Looks pretty cheaply made, like the Ben 10 movies. I wouldnt pay to watch it in Cinema.

GUN?!! Pokemon don't have guns! If they were to come out with a Pokemon movie. That would make so much money. I'm 25 yrs old and I would be first in line to see this movie. As long as they don't Dragonball it.

Would kinda like that, as long a Charizard is in it. I have to call BS on this fan made trailer. Not a real movie IMO.

edit: oops I guess Charizard is in it, I saw it the 2nd time around

If this were true the graphics would be ten times better and there wouldn't be any guns. However, I would like to see a dark tone for Pokemon.

Anime should stay anime we all know how much of a disaster Dragonball evolution was.

It's probably not fake, but it's probably not a teaser for a movie. It looks like a commercial for the card game, but it could be for one of the video games. Even though I actually think Pokemon COULD work as a movie, I know they wouldn't get it anywhare close to right.

I haven't been a fan of Pokemon since the very beginning up until it started getting lame to me, but a live action movie could be awesome, but knowing hollywood they might just [frick] it up like they do everything else.

Its real. I worked with the girl that plays misty years ago, and well long story short this isn't the only clip out there. Some of it looks like its added from a DIFFERENT movie altogether though.

ok after a quick email...(quote) "they had a screener put together to show some big wigs... and yes there was a group of movies that were all jumbled together to show said head hunchos how well a certain studio was doing on movies in progress."

If this is it, Well I don't know... She wouldn't answer me about the guns or even look at the clip to tell me if it was the real thing... she just laughed at me and told me to wait and see
