Do you think Detective Pikachu underperforming will teach TPC and everyone involved with the Pokemon brand that you can't just slap Pikachu, Charizard, and Mewtwo onto anything to guarantee its success? I know it's not flopping but I imagine they expected much more.

You stood up and clapped when you saw Bouffalant in the movie and you know it.

We're in the age of the billion dollar blockbuster, anon.
Anything below 500 million is underperforming for a major movie.

No one thought that a movie based on a spin-off game was going to beat Endgame.

And even with you screeching "no spoilers" I still found out Iron Man and Black Widow died, saving me 3 hours and the price of a ticket.

It's Pokemon, so it's going to make a ton not just in in movie sales, but in merchandise sales too

But DP had way more underrated Pokemon representation than anything else TPC has ever shit out. Most likely totally against TPC's wishes too.

The problem was that they put it out against potentially the biggest movie of all time. I don't know if it was pure incompetence, intentional sabotage from some faggot in TPC for not putting Lucario in, or just arrogance to think 'muh biggest franchise evar' could compete with the fucking Avengers.
If this movie came out at Christmas when there's no competition it would have made double. Everyone thought the trailer looked great but nobody is paying for this movie over Endgame.

People who were saying that it was gonna make 2-3 billion and beat Endgame were the most obvious jesters ever. Though i must admit i thought the mostly positive reception + the novelty of the concept + this being the first major adaptation of perhaps the biggest franchise in the world would've guaranteed close to a billion. So in a way, i did get BTFO'd. I just assumed that if Venom could make nearly a billion despite being maligned by everyone, Pikachu could do the same. I'm surprised at the relatively average performance it had, really. Theaters were packed even though i went on the 17th and word of mouth was great too. The fact that it doesn't seem like it will even beat Warcraft is the most surprising part of it all. I wonder if a PG-13 rating would make it more palatable to a wide audience, after all, PG-13 is the most profitable rating overall by a longshot.

Especially when a certain idea is obviously rustling some jimmies, they'll repeat each other.
