Lights, Camera, Quacktion! (071)

[Leonhart]

It's weird how Heat Minamino's movie was filmed in such a chaotic manner with the ending being produced first, yet I've recently read how real movies are sometimes filmed the same way. It still seems inefficient to me, however.

I always thought that this episode was an homage to the first Pokemon movie since it the movie that was being filmed here was called Pokemon: The Movie. I liked seeing a friendly Raichu for once and Wigglytuff attacking Meowth during the auditions was hilarious. She had a real attitude problem and it's funny how she actually got along with Psyduck at the end even though he was oblivious to her.

An episode about filming a movie should've been lots of fun but to me this one was missing a few key elements that prevented the plot from truly taking off. I liked Wigglytuff and how she didn't put up with crap from anyone and even Psyduck was brave when he saved all the stolen Pokemon, but I didn't like that his headache was once again used to solve the problem. At least the new girl with the Raichu had a good design and I felt bad for Weezing and Arbok. 7/10

I liked TR's speach about becoming a star, & the visuals presented during it: Episode 071 - Lights, Camera, Quacktion! Pictures (serebii.net)

The movie was just like West Side Story

Reviewing the Pokémon anime in 10 words or less:
"Type: Wild's debut was the best part of the episode"

Episode: 5/10
