History Anime / DigimonTheMovie

''Digimon: The Movie'' is a 2000 {{compilation|Movie}} of short movies from the ''Franchise/{{Digimon}}'' franchise: ''Digimon Adventure'' (a PilotMovie), ''Digimon Adventure: Our War Game!'' (a ShortFilm), and ''Digimon Adventure 02: Digimon Hurricane Touchdown!! / Supreme Evolution!! The Golden Digimentals'' (another ShortFilm). It was the first time the franchise saw a movie in American cinemas (and for the longest time, the only one, until the ''Anime/DigimonAdventureTri'' series saw some theatrical issues).

* ContinuitySnarl: The "Present-day" segment popular fanon says it would take place between episode 21 and episode 22. However, but Gatomon is able to Digivolve to Angewomon which we later find out she shouldn't be able to do. There's also the fact that Angemon and Angewomon reach Mega and act like this is something they've always been able to do. They never reached Mega before in the series and don't reach Mega again until Digimon Adventure Tri.

* DarkestHour: When they get defeated by Diaboromon the first time and Tai and Izzy get reconnected they find that [=WarGreymon=] and [=MetalGarurumon=] are in very poor shape and practically unable to fight ([=WarGreymon=] being unconscious when they find him) and when it seems it can't get any worse [[spoiler:Izzy gets an email from someone who hacked into the Pentagon and found out a nuclear missile code named "Peace Keeper" has just been launched with no determined target by the Digimon (In the Dub this was changed to two missiles, one launched at Colorado and the second being aimed right at Tai and Izzy) it could hit ANYWHERE in the world and they have no way of tracking it, and they only have 10 minutes to find Diaboromon and stop the clock, easy right? Wrong, because he starts multiplying himself when the countdown starts and when they find where he is, he's already made millions of copies of himself.]]

* GratuitousEnglish: In the original cut of the last movie Wallace (Willis) Starts off talking in full blown English when confronting Cocomon and when on the phone with his parents. However, when alone with Terriermon starts talking in Japanese again justified later when talking to the group mentioning he used to have a Japanese girlfriend and he learned to talk Japanese for her. However, there is some inconsistency later on when he calls his mom again and talks to her in Japanese even though he should be speaking English.

* ArtisticLicenseGeography: Kari, TK and their Digimon go by train from New York to Colorado in under a day.

* {{Protagonist}}: Tai Kamiya is the one who spends the first two segments running, but it's Willis who heads up the third section.

* ProductPlacement: Kari mentions she got her friend a pink {{Power Ranger|s}} figure for her birthday.

** The Mega-level when introduced in the first season was already this but in this movie we have two Mega-level Digimon digivolve together to a level beyond Mega. Also, since this scene takes place before Season 2, no one had any idea that digimon could merge at all, let alone two Megas.

* CanonImmigrant: Ryo from ''Anime/DigimonTamers'' and Yolei from ''Anime/DigimonAdventure02'' make appearances in the second segment.

* GratuitousEnglish: In the original cut of the last movie Wallace (Willis) Starts off talking in full blown English when confronting Cocomon and when on the phone with his parents. However, when alone with Terriermon starts talking in Japanese again justified later when talking to the group mentioning he used to have a Japanese girlfriend and he learned to talk Japanese for her. However there is some incontinence later on when he calls his mom again and talks to her in Japanese even though he should be speaking English.

* AdaptationPersonalityChange: After Veemon and Terriermon respectively digivolved into Magnamon and Rapidmon, they became a lot more hammy and talkative than they were in the original. In the original, they [[TheQuiteOne talk very little]], to the point that ''they never even announced their names''.

* [[ABoyAndHisX A Boy and His Digimon]]: The movie is centered around Tai, Willis, and their Digimon.

** At the end, Kokomon comes back as an egg, but in regular canon Digimon that die in the real world stay dead.

* SoundtrackDissonance: A huge chunk of the pop music used in the dub could qualify, especially when it was used in "Our War Game". The biggest offender would be during the phone jamming scene where Less Than Jake's "All My Best Friends are Metalheads" is used with no rhyme or reason for it being there.

* OpinionFlipFlop: Willis is telling Davis a sob-story and Davis, beside himself with sorrow, chokes, "That's the saddest story I've ever heard." Willis responds, "I'm the one with the problem, not you. Get over it," and Davis, immediately in high spirits without a trace of tears, says, "Okay!"

* {{Anticlimax}}: As noted by [[WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic the Nostalgia Critic]], the last third of the movie comes across as extremely anticlimactic. The segment that adapts ''Our War Game'' culminates in a full-scale battle against an army of Diablomon, with the protagonists desperately trying to prevent a nuclear missile from exploding. It is then followed by the adaptation of ''Hurricane Touchdown'', which mostly revolves around the 02 children traveling across America, cracking several jokes and attempting to save a single Digimon.

** To be fair, the consonants "L" and "R" are regarded as the same thing in Japanese. Diaboromon is simply how the name is pronounced in the series' home language. Could have also been a small attempt at censorship as well, since it's fairly well-known in English-speaking countries that "diablo" means "devil", and all.

* BigBad: The Virus is responsible for all the trouble that goes on in this movie.

* DeusExMachina: Angemon and Angewomon just obtain the previously unmentioned Golden Digi-Eggs from nowhere.

* NeverTrustATrailer: All of the advertising focused solely on the second segment, presumably because it was the most interesting and they wanted to avoid telling audience it was a clusterfuck of three different stories loosely tied together.

** There are also two Terriermons in the cover for some reason. In the movie, there is only one.

* OffModel: There are two Terriermon in the cover of the movie. In the actual movie, there is only one: Willi's.

* ArcWelding: The third section of the film, originally a NonSerialMovie featuring the 02 cast, is reinterpreted as a sequel to the original Diablomon incident, ''Our War Game''.

** At the end, Kokomon comes back as an egg, but in regular canon Digimon that die in the real world stay dead. The original ''Hurricane Touchdown'' was non-canon and followed different rules.
