Digimon does do a semi decent job at creating completely unique stories for the games, so if they build a story from the ground up exclusively for a film, rather than adapting anything specific, there is the possibility for it to work well with the time it has.

Could do a live action series of Tamers, however just about every season of Digimon lends itself out to a trilogy of films. Tamers a perfect example. It has the Chinese Zodiac arc, the Digital World arc, and the Lovecraft-inspired arc. The Chinese Zodiac arc can serve as character development for the main heroes while being a contained enough story by expelling the threat from Earth, but leaving the door open to a sequel that takes place in the Digital World. It's all laid out like a film trilogy already. The filler just needs to be cut out and some plot points reworked.
