This is the type of trailer that happens when the movie isn't good. They throw the whole plot into 2 minutes. 

 

…..however, everyone knows the story by now.  

I'm afraid of thinking that's the case in here. We all already know the story, but showing the whole plot in the trailer kills any anticipation long time fans might have :gaycat6:

 

Like, there will be no hype or surprises by the time the movie comes out :rip:

This looks great, although I think they showed way too much there lol.

We have to remember Jon Chu has said this adaptation will differ from the stage show and that fans of the musical should be expecting something different with the addition of the book's narrative. 

 

They took all the biggest beats from the stage show and slipped them into the trailer to ensure the musical theater audience it's all still there, but so much more. If I'm not mistaken, this is only Part One's trailer which will be about 2 hours. I think we're in for surprises yet.

I'm kind of shocked how much they showed but it looks really good.

I can't wait to see it, this is so exciting. I don't know anything about Wicked so the movie will be my introduction to that universe.

When Popular started playing my mind went straight to this bop:

 

 

Full circle moment. It was meant to be :jonnycat:

This trailer wasn't great. The editing was a bit clunky and part of the selling point is the music but the mixing of the music wasn't impactful it was almost anti-climatic? I appreciate them not wanting to give too much away but it's like they're spilling the vocal performances but infront of random score music rather than the actual instrumental to that specific song. I picked up on it when Popular and Defying Gravity was playing. Also the Ari scene with the black hat seemed almost like... not real? Her voice literally sounded like an AI.

 

I'm still excited and will of course be going to see it but if this is a disappointment after years of waiting for a movie and hype I'll be sad.

I think it look good idk :rip:

 

Ari got eaten up tho :skull:

The GAG, I just wish it was more colourful and didn't look faded at times.

Am I going crazy or are there 2 different versions of the Defying Gravity end riff in this trailer? Because I can't imagine 2:24 being any other part of the score than the final part of Defying Gravity and then the trailer ends with the one we've heard before.

 

I wonder if they're keeping the 'real' one that's featured in the movie a secret for now.

Some ppl are complaining about them giving the whole plot in the trailer like WORMS! Their main target audience are those who have already seen the musical on stage. Musicals are mostly about execution anyway.

The trailer made excited about this. I really try to put my stan bias aside when I say this but Ariana ATE both singing (which was expected) AND acting!!!

Looks awful and cheap.

Ariana's acting looks great. Cynthia too

 

I am worried that this movie is going to have a lot of boring unnecessary filler

My guess is they added a reprise in pt 2.

Very weak and lazily edited trailer. 3m30s could've gone into 2m30s or even 2m to make it more energetic. Kind of a joke that the BTS footage hyping the trailer up works MILES better than the actual one lol.
