Pokémon: Detective Pikachu gets NA Release Date; New Trailer
It's sure... something
|
I. What. Amazed/horrified.
|
If only this had been available for Halloween... I needed a good scare.

Huh.
This will be an interesting adventure. |
I absolutely love this. I think it looks great. I'm shocked that I like it, really
|
I’m pleasantly surprised and am excited for this!
|
I...
Uh... Hmm... I don't even... :freaked-out: In all seriousness though... Some of the Pokemon look a little cringy but Ryan Reynolds is THE BEST at making EVERYTHING better apparently. I might watch. *whistles innocently* |
Honestly i wasnt as horrified as i thought i would be and the story seems fun enough. i look forward to watching it. Maybe pick up and pkay the game by then too.
|
I like it! It’s a deviation from the norm, a little, what with how we expect Pokémon to be portrayed. I suppose the cartoony art style for the Pokémon wouldn’t work in our real world, so the realistic depictions of the monsters is actually really cool and totally not tacky CGI.
|
Also, Ryan Reynolds fits right in. Love the deadpan.
|
Ryan Reynolds makes the best Pikachu.
I am looking forward to this. |
I like Pikachu's voice, so there's that.
I feel like seeing realistic Pokemon is probably going to take some getting used to. |
I knew this was coming, but im still really weirded out, like it looks like a parody video. I'm liking the pikachu, but the scaly Charizard, while making a lot of sense, creeps me out. I'm cautiously optimistic. Either way, this is definitely a game changer.
|
A little surprised by some of the negative feedback here. I'm down for anything that tries to push mainstream Pokemon entertainment in a different direction. My biggest fear is that no matter what I do, I'll feel like I'm watching Deadpool acting as Pikachu. So there's that.
|
The graphics felt like a combination of fuzziness of Ted and the intimidating appearance of the dinosaurs of Jurassic World. The first time I saw the trailer it gave me an Alita Battle Angel vibes. Surprisingly, I'm very interested to see this.

I plan on seeing this magnificent movie in a theater.
|
Meme tier movie
|
never really thought that a live-action pokemon film would be good. the pokemon looks a bit toy-like but i like it. Also ryan reynolds as pikachu is 10/10. something to look forward to in 2019
|
ngl the trailer actually kind of makes me interested in seeing this
|
Might watch it when it hits theaters, even though that Mr. Mime will haunt my nightmares.

Don't get me wrong, Detective Pikachu seems really fun, I was mostly commenting on how creepy/awkward the Pokémon look, haha. :p The trailer is giving me definite Hop vibes. The kind of movie you don't take seriously and just watch for a cringe-induced laugh. :D |
I'm usually pretty judgmental when it comes to things that were once animated becoming live-action, but I'm pretty amazed at how well (imo) they've done at being able to depict the Pokemon the way they've done. I heard about the news of this film a while ago and I huffed at it, then was amused by the idea, but yeup. This trailer has won me over so far.
Pikachu's just so fluffy and adorable tho! //ivesaidthisfivetimessincelastnight A little bit sad about how psyduck looks, but tbh, what do I expect. It's a water duck and that's pretty much as it's close as it's going to get to what Psyduck is. The same applies for Jigglypuff and Mr.Mime. I do like the little details on some of the other Pokemon they've shown so far, for example, Charizard and Bulbasaur. |
I am not usually the one for anything Pokémon-related outside of the main series and the very few spinoffs, but the trailer mostly reminded me of the movie Ted, which I like a lot. So I'll be keeping an eye on this.
|
I wasn't really expecting anything good when they announced they're making this, but this was nice. The realistic Pokémon looks pretty much how I imagine they could, more that just Kanto group is also nice. And the details in the trailer. I've watched it like 3 times and found new Pokémon every time in the background every time. The story and jokes seem to be aimed at the older audience, which gives me hope for the future of the Pokémon.
I'm not hyped for the movie or anything like that, I'll watch it without any expectations and I hope I'll be nicely surprised. |
I...
It took two trailer watches, and showing it to a friend. I dunno if I would see it on my own, but I know they'll want me to go. Ryan Pikachu is cute, at least. o: |
