So I've noticed some shocking similarities between Digimon the Movie (our war game) and summer wars.

I know they're both directed by the same people, but still I find it weird that nobody really brought attention to this.

I guess it's not important, but I still think it would be nice to have a little discussion about this.

I noticed the computer virus destroy world concept similarity as well, but this is exactly why I never mentioned it..

But I am going to say I love both of these movies lol

It's not that i hate this movie but i really disappointed because the story is too similar compared to digimon bokura no war game. and the plot is kinda so so, nothing special.

(On a side note, I thought the whole family issue with Summer Wars was a bit forced)

definitely agree

Guys, both movies have the same director so it was obvious that he would eventually copy something from his previews works. And so he did....
Nevertheless, I love them both. When I first saw Summer Wars I had a pleasant memory of my youth when I was waking up at 7 o'clock in the morning to watch Digimon on TV! :D

I much prefer the Digimon movie, but yeah I noticed the similarty as well (well, it's too obvious). I also agree with the family thing, way too forced. Not a bad movie though.

A year late, but I did do a shot-by-shot comparison of the two movies. The similarities are uncanny.
