If they did everything chronologically (like, not throw all the movies in at the end, put the movies in where they should go) I'd probably watch a good portion of it, until I'd eventually fall asleep.

Pokemon is scary enough anyway.
Think about it. As a small child, you're thrown out of your house to go into the wilderness and capture dangerous wild animals, which you then pit against other wild animals in vicious gladiatorial battles. Not only that, but you eat these same animals (there don't seem to be any animals except Pokemon in this particular world, but we see the characters eating meat). It may be just me, but the entire concept is slightly disturbing.

Well it would be good up until a bit through Hoenn...
True dat. Even Hoenn had a couple okay episodes. Everything after that was horrible, though. I still find the first season of Pokemon entertaining, regardless of what people say. At least Team Rocket was still funny back then... More like a parody of old Sentai/Power Ranger villains.

The last marathon I pulled off was the fourth series of Babylon 5. It was a very enjoyable day.

Pokemon... who knows. The bad dubbing could be funny for a while.

Of the several decent things to come from the Pokemon franchise, the animated series was not one of them.

That is why I only do marathons of shows that everyone thinks where canceled too soon. I have thought about doing a FireFly marathon but I can't figure out if I should watch Serenity before, or after the series proper. I need help!

Imagine having to watch every episode/movie/special of the pokemon animated series?

597 episodes x 22 minutes = 13 134 minutes
12 movies x 85 minutes = 1020 minutes
14 specials x 12 minutes = 168 minutes

14 322 minutes worth of pokemon anime / 60 = ~238.7 hours worth of pokemon anime

Now thats what I call a marathon. Brain would go numb really really fast.
oh great, i have the sudden urge to try this pokemon marathon...

That's what... Almost 10 days of non-stop eye rape? If you threw in an amount of over 10,000 dollars I'd do it, I wouldn't like it, but I would do it.

Yeah, that's why you spend those hours watching X-Files instead.
Or watch both at the same time. Or combine them into a single show.

Ive done this all over the last 18 months, every episode and film etc, save a few odd episodes and a few films. If you enjoy it for what it is why not, its the same as any sitcom. And to anyone who hates it after Gold, thats prob cause of the large break,a nd the transfer to GBA. If the newer pokemon were released in the first batch it would be just as popular. OK a few pokemon were clearly rushed but why burn a money tree?
