Harry Potter Makes Zero Sense

That's not even the part that makes the least sense! Wizard money makes even less sense than the monetary system in Pokemon.
Kid hides from police in Bend
Seems they stuck it to themselves.
-----------------------------------------
A viral video making the rounds Monday shows a boy going to extremes to avoid detection by Bend Police.
The video, captured by a home security system, shows a boy running near the driveway of a single-family home on a south Bend cul-de-sac before climbing inside one of the home’s garbage cans and closing the lid. Seconds later, a Bend officer walks by and asks several nearby girls if they saw a boy run by. They say no.
Thirty minutes later, the boy exits the garbage can and runs off, seemingly consequence-free.
But according to Bend Police spokesperson Lt. Juli McConkey, that boy and three others were ultimately contacted at their homes and cited with second-degree theft for allegedly stealing Pokemon cards from Walmart.
On July 5, Walmart loss prevention staff called the Bend Police Department to report several boys had stolen Pokemon cards from the store in south Bend. The store turned over security footage and still images of the boys that a Bend school resource officer used to identify them.
The boys, between the ages of 13 and 15, were not contacted until Sunday, when Walmart personnel called Bend Police to report the same boys were back in the store and had stolen more Pokemon cards.
Police arrived, but the boys were by then hiding somewhere in the store and playing the card game, McConkey said.
They eventually came out and were spotted by officers. The boys ran, spilling into the surrounding neighborhoods, which is when the home security camera captured one of the boys evading capture.
On Monday, the video had been viewed more than 1 million times.
The Bulletin does not typically identify juvenile criminal suspects or defendants.

Cohen Sentenced; Trump's Shutdown Threat: A Closer Look
I'm always unsure why people seem to have a problem with this. I suspect it's tort-reform-propaganda at work.
The amount of civil cases filed, aka access to the court system by the general public, should be considered an integral part of a healthy democracy.
"How often plaintiffs sue will also turn on the predictability
of the courts. Recall the standard model of litigation and settlement.
Litigation is more expensive than settlement, so disputants do best if they settle their quarrels out of court, all else equal. Suppose they know what a court will do. If so, they can settle their dispute by that expected litigated outcome and pocket the fees they would otherwise have paid their lawyers. The point is simple: if they know what a judge will do, they have no reason to ask him. Under this model, disputants primarily litigate rather than settle only when they each hold optimistic estimates of their prospects in court."
"Coffee spills, Pokemon class actions, tobacc o settlements. American courts have made a name for themselves as a wild lo ttery and a money machine for a lucky few lawyers. At least in part, however, the reput ation is unfounded. Ameri can courts seem to handle routine contract and to rt disputes as well as th eir peers in other wealthy democracies.
More generally, Americans do not file an unusually high numb er of law suits. They do not employ large numbers of judges or lawyers. They do not pay more than people in comparable countries to enforce contracts. And they do not pay unusually high prices for insurance against routine torts. "

It sure does!
It feels like those fan art drawings and clips of "realistic" pokemon.

Yeah, there's a really solid reason for that.
I personally like the visuals of the CGI characters. It's a hell of a lot better than I'd assumed a live action incarnation of Pokemon would look, so perhaps my opinion is colored by having had very low expectations in advance.

This is very very deep in the uncanny valley territory.
It looks just weird.
It feels like those fan art drawings and clips of "realistic" pokemon.
It also has a feeling of that supposedly horrible DBZ live-action movie.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi Trailer (Official)
Okay, how much did Nintendo pay Disney to include Pokemons in the newest Star Wars film.
Just WTF
It's like the universe took all the weird and bazaar things and compressed them into a small island nation we call Japan...
For all we know its the next Pokemon game....

Battle of the Autonomous Snow Bots
I was in that exact space a couple weeks ago, had no idea this was part of the Winter Carnival or might have tried to go watch. Totally keeping it in mind for 2018. Good Pokemon hunting there too, so extra bonus!
I'm gonna have to try and go to this next year.
