I'm very excited to see this! Seems very much in the formula of Indiana Jones with the time period (Nazis) and Pirates with the supernatural elements. In the trailer, the CGI seems to be a bit rough (like back in the early days when it was very obvious), but as long as it doesn't distract from the action, I think it'll be fine.

Reminds me of both Jumanji (obviously) and Mummy '99. Both very fun movies. That's what this is all about. Looks like a good time.
"Today, I’m so excited to share that adventurers around the globe will be able to join a stretch of the journey virtually as we take you aboard the Jungle Cruise and beyond. Tune in for a special live stream featuring the World Premiere of Disney’s “Jungle Cruise” Red Carpet event hosted from Disneyland Park on July 24, right here on the Disney Parks Blog. That’s right, the Jungle Cruise will venture down a new, uncharted tributary – a live stream!*"

I'm getting the same type of vibe from this as I was getting from Curse Of The Black Pearl just before it was released way back when.
That's a good thing.

The preview trailer during Black Widow looked very good.

Was a pretty interesting day at Disneyland today! They were handing out little packets of M&M’s with a Jungle Cruise premiere pin (a typical round button, not a pin trading one), and some operations have been impacted, including:
-Jungle Cruise, Railroad, Toontown closing early
-Tiki Room & Enchanted Hideaway being closed all day
-No fireworks, just projections for MMM
That said, there’s a massive crowd near the Fantasyland Theatre hoping to spot some celebs! The red carpet is rolled out (looks like they’ll be coming from the train station), very cool energy right now.
