neutral · AI labelView post →So I finally watched the Pokémon Detective Pikachu movie... Gets off to a very slow and awkward start, but rapidly picks up and really does come across as a typical Pokémon story, but aged and matured somewhat for people like me who grew up playing the games. In short: It was fun! :)

neutral · AI labelView post →Pokémon: Detective Pikachu Still a very fun watch! Hadn't seen it since I watched it in theaters years ago but the visuals are still real good despite some Pokemon looking REALLY weird and gross, but that's kinda the point in a way. It's nice having Pokemon stuff made with adults in mind!

neutral · AI labelView post →While I’m not a huge fan of the designs in Pokémon: Detective Pikachu, I’m still happy they took the time to model and render live action designs for these relatively deep-cut Pokémon (compared to the ones actually playing a role in the movie) for just the trailers. 1.

I've also started playing the game for the Nintendo Switch, and I've loved it as much. Anime, game, or movie, Pokémon always makes me cry. 🥹

neutral · AI labelView post →There's a reasonable version of IP laws we could have. Imagine if copyright lasted five years. Thats plenty of time to try and turn a profit. Would a fan made sequel to 2019's Pokémon: Detective Pikachu really detract money from the creators of the original at this point? If there was a fan made sequel today and also an "official" sequel, would the fan sequel stop people from seeing the official one? No. It just gives people more freedom to actually vote with their dollar on the better made…

positive · AI labelView post →I saw it when it was posted on YouTube for free and my expectations were really low. I've never played Borderlands and I like Paul Anderson's 'Resident Evil' and 'Mortal Kombat' and dislike 'The Super Mario Bros. Movie' and 'Pokémon: Detective Pikachu' so my opinion might not mean much.
negative · AI labelView post →CQ Mono is a clean monospace font, perfect for code editors etc. (See also: Coder's Crux 1 and 2.) This font made a brief appearance in the movie Pokémon: Detective Pikachu, as well as a ton of promo stuff like the special TCG set, in some background signage!
neutral · AI labelView post →I feel like this has "Pokémon Detective Pikachu" somewhere in its DNA, like someone said "let's take this name people recognize and make it…a detective!" That said, I hope this Gatsby guy investigates some of those things and creatures that Tom and Daisy smashed up.

positive · AI labelView post →Pokémon: Detective Pikachu (2019) Surprisingly really good! Has some issues, like the writing for Ryan Reynolds Pikachu, but visually it's great and it's the most interesting story for a Pokémon film. A satisfying end to the Pokémon film binge, most of which I did not cover here. Ms Norman please-

neutral · AI labelView post →I'm not judging anyone who thinks Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is the best video game movie. But all of these conversations only cover the same half-dozens of films, it's clear a bunch of you aren't looking very hard. No, Pokémon Detective Pikachu wasn't the first good one ever made.
neutral · AI labelView post →i'm a diehard Pokémon fangirl, and this one made my week when I saw it - CQ Mono is used for a background sign in the movie Pokémon Detective Pikachu. that's pretty small, but that sign is also prominently featured on basically all of the merch surrounding the movie. my font is on Pokémon cards.
positive · AI labelView post →I've still got mine. I actually brought it with me when I saw Pokémon Detective Pikachu. Because it was the first time since Pokémon The Movie 2000 that I had been to the theater to see a Pokémon movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →In the movie Pokémon Detective Pikachu, Pikachu (voiced by Ryan Reynolds) makes a sexual innuendo joke that he's "not that kind of Pokémon" to a human. This means that there are *those* types of Pokémon. Thus, Pokémon and human sexual relationships are now canon.
