>>37007823Disney films are familiar ground to a lot of people. Everything is very high quality entertainment and animation, but it's also formulaic and easy to get bored of. That's why there are so many critics and YouTubers who spend so much time completely ripping into Disney's business practices and works.
Pokemon: Detective Pikachu is a whole lot of unknown all at once, doing a whole bunch of shit the Pokemon franchise has never done. This is genuinely far more exciting and impactful. We feel like we've seen Toy Story 4 even before we've seen the trailer, but Detective Pikachu is fresh.
Oh, on top of that: Disney dropped the trailer for their live-action Dumbo remake 2 days ago, again trying to drive attention away from Detective Pikachu. Only 5 million views on that one.
