I'm shocked there isn't a thread on this already.

CN's showing the movie on CN, now (actually the "Pikachu's Vacation"). Did anyone see the commercial for it or did it surprise anyone else, too? Actually, I woudn't of known if it wasn't for my mom.

Whee! Thank you for this! Just caught it!

Brings back a ton of memories!! I am surprised they are showing the short though! Ahh... I really hate how Dexter narrates though.
 
Yay?

To be honest, I think this is probably my least favorite movie...I wish they showed Movie 2 or 3..
 
Man, I forgot that this was showing! xD I just watched it the other day, but considering I just tuned in right before the opening battle, I'll stick around for a bit.

Why the first movie, though? I mean, I love this thing, but if they want to advertise the new series with Pokemon USA *rolls eyes*, shouldn't they go for something a bit more ... Pokemon USA made?
 
The only movie PUSA dubbed thus far was Movie 9 and that just aired on CN recently so they probably don't want to air it again so soon.
 
They also did that Mirage Mastermind thing and that hasn't aired in a bit. Not a big problem with them airing this one (heck, no problem at all), though.
 
Yeah, I was caught off-guard by the image of Mew flying around on the TV when I turned it on. XD Watched a few minutes of it.

Has CN ever shown any of the mini-movies before?

Jeez, the movie characters have some very inbalanced teams, don't they?
 
Don't think so. I was just searching the channels the other day to see if there was any of the older episodes of Pokemon and this popped up. I would assume they did some sort of advertisement, but then again this is CN; they have odd ways of doing things.
 
CN's 9AM-3PM window is always generally random like that. I guess because they figure their prime audience is at school they don't need to have structured scheduling.

Though, they do it in the summer too. :shrug:

That would be beyond awesome. A marathon of Pokemon movies? Total win. The only problem would be when they would show it... >.<
 
CN needs to hurry up and air "Mewtwo Returns."

Has that ever aired on TV?

I guess its the only movie CN has not aired even though its not really a movie..

What sucks is the DVD is out of print and it goes for high prices on ebay :/
 
CN's random airing habits never cease to amaze.

What sucks is the DVD (Mewtwo Returns) is out of print and it goes for high prices on ebay :/

I do alot of eBay pokemon shopping and that movie has been floating around 5 bucks for quite some time now...

It's not out of print, I bought it earlier this year :/ Unless it went out of print very recently.

I've only been checking for new copies and they go to 20 or more without shipping. VHS copies go for almost nothing however.

I don't know when it became out of print but it is and I doubt it was recently. The copy you bought must have just been a very old leftover copy from back in the day.
