Well that's not the final official trailer. It's mostly a slightly re-fashioned version of the teaser poster. They likely want to wait with the final poster until they've revealed more characters in the official trailer.

Just saw the new trailer. Until now I’d been optimistic. I still like the casting.

But, oh my gosh. this looks so boring! Just another nearly shot-by shot remake with horrible CGI animals???? That’s the impression this new trailer gives. No thanks. Cripes, I’d rather watch “Cats” a second time.

I hope I’m wrong. I’d genuinely love for this to actually be excellent and much more imaginative than the trailer suggests.

After seeing the trainer I’m actually looking forward to this. It may have its faults but I think the not so ideal things can be overlooked.

I’m still questioning the Ursula scenes in this and hope it’s true to the animated version including the final battle where she’s a giant. The trailer does give me hope though.

Maybe it's just me, but this trailer just looks amateur, like it should be a straight to D+ release. The special effects are not great at all. But I guess that's par for the course with Disney these days.
I don't know. The purple underwater smoke plumes from a sea witch's cauldron looks exactly like all the purple underwater smoke plumes from a sea witch's cauldron I've ever seen.

Yeah no desire to see this one for me now. Looks like they are going the route of making it the exact same movie (with probably one added scene or something like that). These plot for plot remakes are so boring to me. I had hoped they'd expand it/make it different, but that doesn't look the case at all.

i thought mccarthy sounded a bit like carroll’s ursula. i think i can wait for it to hit disney+. it’s more of live action remake overkill than anything else.

Some people have seen the classic animation once. And that's enough for them. And that's fine.

Some people have seen the classing animation several times. And so, the live-action will be just one more re-watching, but with a different visual interest.

No one is forced to watch a live-action remake. If seeing TLM once is enough, then peace be with you as you go about your business.

But stop dumping on people's desire to see it again with a different 'staging.'

Reprisals of Broadway musicals are quite popular even tho it's the same plot, dialogue, and music.
