Used Book in Good Condition
I honestly haven't seen a big increase in Pokemon collections hitting the market. Pokemon has been cyclical their entire lifespan. Pokemon was dead in the water following the release of Team Rocket and the Gym sets. You could buy boxes from Base 2 (and Jungle) through Gym at $10-12 all day long and every dollar store had a plethora of product in stock. Then Neo launched.
The Neo sets completely revitalized the game and resurrected it from the grave. Until it died again shortly after Expedition. From there it goes up and down steadily up to the point of Black/White and it explodes again.
No Pokemon rise has come close to the levels of Sports Cards, Comics, or Beanie Babies. While the current market has given new life to old cards, it still hasn't hit levels that would flush out every collection. If you (or anyone else reading this) wants a good read that delves into the card collection explosion check out House of Cards. Great read for seeing the levels of popularity it takes to reach the sleeping collections.

You hit the nail on the head. I don't have high hopes that the movie will see the light of day after the Warcraft movie disappointed. However, if a MTG movie were to be made, and it did well, the resulting impact on the game would be enormous.
