Whaaaaaaaaat is this place.

What.

Ryan Reynolds spoils it totally. Should be a different voice

Malevolence · 13 Nov 2018 at 22:44

OK then!

krooton · 13 Nov 2018 at 22:49

Why is this a thing?

Hard no from me.

I'm in childhood nostalgia

sanaxe1 · 14 Nov 2018 at 10:03

looks good to me!

Nitefly · 14 Nov 2018 at 10:08

Having watched it again, it does look like a pretty good cross between nostalgia (Mr. Mime japes) and modern humour (i.e. Pika’s joke about pushing people away ). This has scope to be great but to do so it’ll have to fly in the face of what you would expect (like the Lego Movie did).

completely the wrong voice for Pikachu

Jonny2284 · 14 Nov 2018 at 14:48

Maybe it's because I was a little too old when Pokemon became a thing and have no nostalgia to play off, but I'm not really seeing the appeal of PG-13 Deadpool as Pikachu doing what looks very likely to be a by the numbers buddy cop thing.

Caught the trailer on early minutes of its release.

Thought it was a bit jarring at first from some of the visuals of the pokemon, but quickly felt it was the right way to go about it as the trailer went on.

Caught most of the eastereggs early on. And noticed that it was the same Jigglypuff from the cartoon (it was holding the mic/pen marker) which many missed out on initially. Then had to dig up info on the one in the cartoon and it looks like it's back too in the cartoon since Ep 42 of Sun and Moon series. Anyway, would go and watch, nostalgia will let me give it at least a go.

Ironically when I first heard of this I thought it would be garbage - I quite enjoyed the trailer!

HaroldSaxon · 14 Nov 2018 at 18:21

I was pleasantly surprised by the trailer. I'll probably give it a watch but not expecting it to be the best film of the year or anything!

jacksgotbones · 14 Nov 2018 at 20:33

I'd still watch it

purely for Charizard

snips86x · 14 Nov 2018 at 20:39

Looks aright actually. RR suits it well I think but I guess only time will tell

UberTiger · 14 Nov 2018 at 20:42

That trailer had no right to be anywhere near as good as it was. I can't believe I might actually be interested in seeing this.

theone8181 · 15 Nov 2018 at 07:27

I didn't even realise there was a pokemon film coming out till the trailer popped up yesterday. It does look quite good (i like the mime bit).

I don't understand the art choice for the pokemon they have made em all fluff balls

Because most of the pokemon we saw have fur, it just doesn't translate as easily into games/cartoons.
