An opening to a film is an essential part of a film. Some people might have started watching a particular film for no real reason, so if the film has an unappealing opening, there's a good chance that people will stop watching it. A film's opening is often a way to introduce audiences to the story and atmosphere. There are times where a film's opening might have a different tone than the rest of the film. Sometimes, a film might start off sadder 或者 happier than you'd expect.

There's one opening to a film that stands out from the rest. The opening I'm referring to is the opening to Pokemon: The First Movie. This'll probably sound strange, but during my long life of watching films, the only piece of entertainment that made me burst into tears was the opening to Pokemon: The First Movie. It was an emotional experience that was unlike anything I had ever seen. 你 might think this makes no sense. After all, Pokemon's a 显示 about a boy and his 皮卡丘 going on fun adventures, while foiling the antics of a trio of goofy thieves. While Pokemon is a very happy, upbeat and fun show, that doesn't mean that there isn't 更多 to the franchise.

Critics gave Pokemon: The First Movie very bad reviews. They thought the movie was a silly, shallow commercial for Pokemon products. They accused the film of lacking a real plot. Pokemon: The First Movie isn't a continuation of the 1st season of the Pokemon anime. Because of that, 你 have to be familiar with the 显示 in order to understand the film. The critics hadn't seen the show, so their reviews lacked much analysis 或者 critique.

Things get even 更多 complicated when 你 realize that the opening of the film got cut out. Yes, the most emotional opening to any film I've ever seen was cut out of the film. 你 might be wondering why that is, which is why I think it's time to explain what happens in that opening.

The plot of the film is focused on Mewtwo, the most powerful Pokemon of all time. The opening focuses on Mewtwo's creation. Dr. Fuji was a scientist who 迷失 his daughter, Amber, when Amber was just a little girl. Dr. Fuji started focusing on trying to bring Amber back to life. Dr. Fuji's wife believed that there was no way to bring Amber back, so she asked her husband to stop but he refused. Because of this, Dr. Fuji's wife divorced him. Later, Dr. Fuji's research gets funded 由 Giovanni, the villainous leader of Team Rocket. Giovanni is willing to pay for Dr. Fuji's cloning experiments, because Giovanni wants a clone of rare Pokemon. Most of all, he wants a clone of Mew. Dr. Fuji agrees to this deal. He makes a clone of his daughter, as well as a clone of Mew. For a while, the experiment seems to be a success. For a short period of time, Amber is alive. During that time, she forges a quick friendship with Mewtwo, the clone of Mew. However, the experiment ends up not working as expected. The clones start fading away. Mewtwo survives, but he's the only clone to live. This means that Dr. Fuji and Mewtwo lose Amber. This makes Mewtwo freak-out, so Dr. Fuji has to have Mewtwo's memories of Amber erased. Dr. Fuji manages to get Giovanni the clone of Mew, but he loses any chance of saving his daughter.

Watching Dr. Fuji lose his daughter was one of the most emotional experiences of my life. Yes, they're both fictional characters who had little screentime, but during their brief amount of screentime, I felt incredibly moved 由 their storyline. Mewtwo's backstory tugged on my heartstrings in a way that no other fictional backstory ever has.

The opening I described was supposed to be the first ten 分钟 of the film. However, it was decided that the opening was too much for a kid's film. Because of this, the theatrical versions of the film cut out the opening. Several VHS and DVD releases also cut out the opening. I probably wouldn't have had the honor of seeing the opening if it wasn't included as an extra in the DVD release of Mewtwo Returns.

The version of the film that critics and almost everybody else saw didn't even have Amber in it. This means that the greatest film opening of all time was hidden from them. I truly believe that people would have had a much different reaction to the film if the opening had been included. Granted, ten 分钟 of a feature film may seem small, but in this case, those 分钟 make a huge difference.

Several years later, a remake of the film came out. The remake was called Pokemon: Mewtwo Strikes Back - Evolution. I was hoping that the remake would be a chance to put the opening back into the film. However, the remake didn't even bother with the opening. Once again, there was no appearance 由 Amber. Because of this, the opening continued being hidden from the world.

Despite how obscure the opening is, it certainly left an impact on those who saw it. For years, that opening has stuck in my mind as an important part of film history.

The opening is extremely underrated, and so is a song that was made about the opening. A wonderful YouTuber, Taylor - I Am Revenant, made a video called "Taylor Of Darchera - The Origin Pt. 3 (Dear Amber)". The video is a seven-minute song that summarizes the events of the opening in the form of a song. The song is sung from the perspective of Dr. Fuji, and it's one of the greatest songs that I've ever heard in my life. It's an emotional masterpiece of a song that brings out all kinds of emotions. It's a must-see masterpiece that deserves far 更多 attention and love.

The opening to Pokemon: The First Movie was an experience that was unlike anything that Pokemon 粉丝 could have ever imagined. It's an emotional masterpiece that should be remembered as one of the greatest backstories of all time.
Film Courage: Where did 你 grow up?

Karan Choudhary: I was born and raised in a small town called Faridabad in India. I’m the youngest in a close-knit family of five along with my older brother and sister. At the time of growing up, tv was the only medium for us to be connected with the big cities lifestyle and to the rest of the world, except there was no electricity for most of the time in my town. Schooling wasn’t very interesting to me and I was always afraid of my father to do well in my exams. I wasn’t the kind of kid who would watch 动画片 all the time. 食物 was the only interesting...

At some point, everyone hits a low-point in their career and life. It’s that time 你 think ‘can’t get any worse?’ – and then it does. Then, 你 wonder if there’s a way out and what 你 can do it make it happen.

Well, that’s the basic set-up for Jason Cook’s newly released comedy-drama feature film “The Creatress.”

It stars Lindy Booth as Eryn, a best-selling 作者 caught between her wheeling-and-dealing agent (played 由 Fran Drescher) and a zealous critic (played 由 Peter Bogdanovich) out to take her down crafting a faux-memoir and a fake lover, Brad. Instead of crawling...

The Last Airbender is a 2010 action film that was based on a beloved 显示 of the same name. The film got really bad reviews, but I actually really liked the film.

I only saw clips of the animated 显示 before watching the live action film so I'm judging this film 由 itself instead of comparing it to the show. I still haven't watched any full episodes, but I did enough research to understand the plot and characters.

The film focuses on Aang who's the avatar. He's discovered 由 a duo of siblings, Katara and Sokka, who become his friends. It's up to them to save the world from the evil 火, 消防 Nation....

It’s 1977 and four college 老友记 who parted ways years 以前 have reunited for what’s supposed to be a raucous bachelor party.

Keeping up with the men, the only female amongst the once tight-knit group is the wiseass Robin -- played...

迪士尼 adaptations of classic stories are hardly faithful, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. But it is troubling when the company defines a story so much to the point that we forget the true spirit of it. In particular, The Jungle Book 由 Ruyard Kipling is such a case.

Disney's 1967 animated classic is mostly remembered fondly, and I myself own it on Platinum Edition. While it is a shame that it couldn't be closer to the original story due to 迪士尼 himself finding it too dark for children, it's still a lighthearted, pleasant adventure with fun songs. In 2016, 迪士尼 released a live action...

Am I excited about the 2017 My Little 小马 film? Well I'm nervouscited for the upcoming My Little 小马 film.

A major problem I have with the upcoming film is that it's not a Equestria Girls film. Because of that I'm worried that Twilight sparkle's 老友记 will be protagonists. I think that Twilight's 老友记 are weak protagonists, but decent supporting characters. I'm worried about Sunset Shimmer not being in the film. How can 你 have a good My Little 小马 film without Sunset? I'm hoping that Celestia, Luna, the cutie mark crusaders, and Starlight Glimmer don't appear in the film. I hope that...

Movie reviews generally aren't my thing, and I don't spend a lot of time 阅读 them let alone 写作 them, but Snowpiercer was one of the best 电影院 I've seen in years. Here's the synopsis:

The final survivors board the SNOWPIERCER, a train that travels around the globe via a perpetual-motion engine. When cryptic messages incite the passengers to revolt, the train thrusts full-throttle towards disaster.(TWC-Radius)

It sounds like a run-of-the-mill dystopian thriller. It sounds...
