They got really bad, with the Gen 6 movies being the lowest performing movies of all. Then they tried AU movies for Gen 7 and 8.

Curious, what's you guys thoughts on Detective Pikachu? I liked it when I first watched it, but everytime I would try to rewatch it, I would get bored and stop watching halfway through.

never watched because it looks like the cringiest shit imaginable plus ugly models.
also detective pikachu the game was a weird idea, but its a huge waste to use that of all things on the huge live action film.

It was an okay watch with your mom, but I don't think I missed anything by not watching it in theatres.

Movie 2 and 3 are shit.
>>50479126
Top 5 in any order with Darkrai at the top:
Rise of Darkrai
Heroes: Latias and Latios
Ranger and the Temple of the Sea
Lucario and the Mystery of Mew
Destiny Deoxys

Out of the older ones, Movie 2, 3 and 6 were dogshit. Rest were all enjoyable with Celebi 4ever being the weakest. And out of nu-movies (post Darkrai), Kyurem was decent and Diancie and Giratina were okay. Rest sucked.

>>50479227
Terrible film.

Declining box office sales were leaving TPC and OLM anxious about keeping up the trend, and COVID finally gave them an excuse to pull out entirely.
They're probably waiting until they move onto the next phase of the anime before they consider reinventing their approach to Pokemon movies to figure out what would work for bringing back audience appeal and raking in box office numbers more in line with the classics.

I will never not be mad about any of this.

>gen 8 has only had 1 mythical and thus only 1 tie-in movie

I wonder if this is gonna be a trend of fewer mythicals/movies

Nobody really cares about any Legendary or Mythical anymore, with how freaking many there are of them by now. The cover ones get a little interest because game covers, but that's about it; 'nothing' legendries like Zeora and Zarude certainly aren't going to shift a film. You'd have more chance shifting a film off the back of a popular Common like Eevee, Golurk or Joltik.

They do, but their movies are completely different than Pokemon.

I mean that Zarude movie just seems like a rip off of Tarzan where Ash is Jane. They could rip off Toy Story or something

They didn't have to do away with the Mythicals though...sucks that we're basically stuck with Zarude being the only one we got in Gen 8.

I like it too but only visually, the high quality animations in these movies used to be the main draw back in the day.
