Ryan Reynolds is the Quirky, Fast-Talking "Detective Pikachu"

Pikachu speaks!  And that’s just for starters in Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures’ “POKÉMON Detective Pikachu.”

(Watch Ryan Reynolds in the “Becoming Pikachu” featurette at YouTube:  https://youtu.be/V3_LgIDqOwo .)

As fans everywhere know, Pikachu is a Pokémon, and no matter how expressive Pokémon can be with their features, actions, body language and special powers, they are linguistically limited to stating their own names.  Inexplicably, such is not the case with this one particular, pint-sized, fast-moving individual in the deerstalker cap: Detective Pikachu.

"Captain Marvel" Now the 7th All-Time Highest-Grossing Movie in PH

Carol Danvers' first foray into the Marvel Cinematic Universe has Marvel Studios soaring to another box office success in the Philippines! On its fourth week in theaters, Marvel Studios' "Captain Marvel" created a new record as it now holds the 7th highest-grossing movie in Philippine history with USD11.7 million at the box-office.

With Jean spiraling out of control, and hurting the ones she loves most, she begins to unravel the very fabric that holds the X-Men together.
