‘Detective Pikachu’ Is A Very Real Movie And The Tweets About It Are Outstanding
Our world was rocked this week when, seemingly out of nowhere, the first trailer for Detective Pikachu dropped. Yep. This is a live-action film in which the titular electric rodent is voiced by none other than Ryan Reynolds and wears an adorable hat to help him solve Pokemon-related crimes.
Just see for yourself:
Naturally, the memes and tweets starting coming and they haven’t stopped coming. Some are praising Detective Pikachu as their new god, while others are more fearful of his life-like terror. Regardless of anyone’s opinions, you can bet your ass that I will be in a theater seat on day one.

I’m going to preemptively say that hollywood should cancel the four avatar movies they’re planning and instead use that $1.4 billion to make sixteen detective pikachu sequels

“The kids call it Ass Koffing. They catch poison-type Pokemon and huff the gas out of them to get high. Too bad the morgue says the comedown ain’t pretty.” pic.twitter.com/E1Xzig1Kpb
