Hello!

Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1roy4o4tqQM

A pokemon buddy cop film. What do you folks think? I'll probably see it.

Edit: Sorry, I had some technical difficulty with the hyperlink. It should start at the beginning now.

Worth a look for the uncanny valley.

A western movie about a japanese IP? Is there one such a movie that didn't suck in the end?

Day 1 GOTY.

I'm uh, not really keen on this conceptually and visually.

I feel that way too. The trailer doesn't draw me in, and the pokemon look off. I'm going to give it a chance. Maybe it will surprise me.

Ok, first things first.

Damn, those Pokemon are terrifying, like seriously the stuff of nightmares...

Second... I think it actually looks quite interesting. Definitely a different take on the Pokemon world, that's for sure.

How the hell did this even come to be?

I am as intrigued as I am furious.

Cute and fluffy people, cute and fluffy.

This is, huh.... wow.

I can't decide if I'm interested or horrified. :P

Shit, I kind of ripped of F4LLOUT's post.

You left out the notable fact that Pikachu is being voiced by Ryan Reynolds. I'm hoping that at some point in the future we see a fan dub that inserts lines from Deadpool into this movie.

Speaking of good dubs.
NSFW

I guess this sold well enough to warrant it.

Probably makes more sense than adapting one of the main games.

It could be worse.
