Industry Insights
Pokemon "Detective Pikachu"
Pokemon Detective Pikachu
The first live-action adaptation of the Pokémon franchise, the latest video game adaptation movie Pokémon "Detective Pikachu" released on 3rd May, 2019.
Though it's specifically based on the 2016 game, “Detective Pikachu”, the movie is rooted in the franchise that kicked off and rose to popularity in the mid-90s. Because most of the games, TV shows and animated movies follow Pokémon trainers, it's a different story than what fans are used to, but one that's still very much a part of this world. “Detective Pikachu” is wholesome, silly fun, with solid world-building and stunning CGI Pokémon that is complemented well enough by its story.

Pixar Releases Final “Toy Story 4” Trailer
‘Into the Spider-Verse’& ‘Bao’ Win the 91st Oscars Awards
In Disney and Pixar's final “Toy Story 4” trailer before the film's release, Woody leads his trusted group of friends, as well as an odd set of new acquaintances, on a desperate and hilarious race to save Bonnie's craft-project-turned-toy, Forky. Evel Knievel certainly had nothing on Duke Caboom!
The adventurous journey turns into an unexpected reunion as Woody's slight detour leads him to his long-lost friend Bo Peep. As Woody and Bo discuss the old days, they soon start to realize that they're worlds apart when it comes to what they want from life as a toy.
Tom Hanks, Tim Allen and Joan Cusack return as the voices of Woody, Buzz and Jessie and the movie is directed by Josh Cooley. The movie released in theaters on June 21, 2019.
