What’s crazy about the first movie is how the show actually built up to it by showing cameos of mewtwo in some episodes. Like that Gary cameo in the beginning happens in the show

Those episodes were actually meant to serve as a prologue for this movie, but then the Porygon episode caused those episodes to be delayed, so the movie was given a prologue of its own before the title sequence.

*"I see now that the circumstances of one's birth are irrelevant. It is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are."* The fact that Mewtwo spent the majority of the first Pokémon movie as the villain, but turned into the prophetic hero speaks volumes. This is a really deep quote.

It was magical simply due to gen 2 pkmn being introduced and mewtwo not being in a effin cave. Donphan was considered a pokegod back then 💀It felt like a secret location we never knew about. The whole mewtwo escaping from the lab(?) and thevback throw at the 8 gym with mewtwo yeeting every challenger was a contributing factor aswell. Menacing af

It wasn't taken out. The original Japanese theatrical release and first VHS release of the movie didn't have it either. It was a bonus short that aired before the movie's first Japanese television airing, then got tacked onto every Japanese home release from that point forward. The confusion came from the fact that the version of the movie floating around the internet in the early 00s was taken from the first Japanese DVD release rather than the original VHS release, so westerners saw it and assumed it was always part of the movie in Japan. It wasn't. (also, all of the awkward CGI was added for that release. The first Japanese version didn't have the big CG doors or anything) 4kids did eventually include it as an extra on the Mewtwo Returns DVD.

With how OP the Psychic-type was in Gen 1 (with Bug-types in Pinsir and Scyther being nowhere strong, no Dark types, and potential coding bug with Psychic being immune to Ghost), it makes sense why the first Legendary Pokemon we were introduced to was one of the best Psychic types in the franchise. Mewtwo is the catalyst for imposing legends.

I know it kinda wasn’t Warner Bros Animation but also it kinda was. But man, WB was releasing some bangers in the very late 90’s. The Scooby Doo renaissance, Pokémon, Batman. I was only four when this came out but it felt so big and epic and more dramatic than the series. It was so cool. The score is really on point, the songs are nostalgic, Mewtwo is a cool antagonist. Animation is beautiful. It really feels like a series finale. 2000 also feels the same way.

Oh snap, let’s go! Mewtwo has such an interesting and compelling story. In fact, it has a very similar tale like Shadow the Hedgehog. They both were created by scientists that wanted to do good for their loved ones, being used by individuals that want to do evil, and the fact that they are both extremely powerful with their abilities, not to mention they had identity issues. To this day, the parallels between Mewtwo and Shadow really fascinates me.

You guys are watching the Raw unedited version, that WASN'T so much publicly released yet during our era because it shows a child dying on scene. The version we watched was still very good at developing a disposition, but it wasn't until later years that this movie would be re-released in it's raw form. At first it was a Japanese edit, with no sub or dub. The translated version made it through, and then finally the dub! So the scene you watched at the beginning, with Mew connecting with Mewtwo, it's allllllllllllll the raw unedited we didn't get to watch when we were young!
